Altough it is difficult to keep the spinning axes during a full teamfight, it gives draven a even better late game than most carries,

Some mages with good scallings but long cooldowns can still be powerfull carries, such has Malzahar, Viktor, etc

Also, I think that Jayce, has a very powerfull game al around, specially late game, wenn all of his  8 abillities are at max rank, I mean a single target skill that can take away half of the enemy's carry hp is very good, he also brings alot of utillity into the team

But, I belive the reason most champions are now mid game focused, its because games don't last has long has they used to, I remember during season 1, they were 50 minutes long, but now, they usually last 30~35 minutes
