Is Kraven good?
Kraven's Traps Root opponents, which makes his dash attacks 
Unstoppable and nearly Unblockable while boosting his crit rating, and he can hold True Accuracy for long stretches to counter Evade and Auto-Block. He stacks heavy Bleed damage that skips past Armor and Resistance entirely, and he can pause those Bleeds while the opponent is Rooted or during his Special 1 to make them last longer, which is exactly what makes Deep Wounds and Despair so good on him.
Long-range Special Attacks (Venom, 
Tigra) are a problem since crossing a Trap with a Special is the only way to disarm it, and Bleed Immunity cuts his output substantially. B tier for a strong Bleed and control-based Skill champion.
Strengths
- Traps Root opponents, enabling Unstoppable, nearly Unblockable dash attacks
- Long True Accuracy uptime counters Evade and Auto-Block
- Heavy Bleed damage that bypasses Armor and Resistance

Trap
PassiveIf the Opponent moves into a Trap, it springs and deals a Burst of 7553.25 Direct Damage and Roots them for 5 second(s). Damage scales with Base Attack only.
