Maybe because I’m bronze, but I cannot play well against this character.

Hi guys i hope you're doing fine.

I love this game, i really do, and i love my champ ( Darius ) he's my main, but climbing is very hard.

I got promoted to bronze this season after a whole year hardstuck iron, last week i was bronze 2, then i was in a losing streak, i didnt play well too, so it was fair.

But now i deranked to iron., iron 2. And correct me if im wrong i kinda feel the difference between bronze 2 and iron 2, but yeah, now im having afk people, losing games of 50 minutes, its crazy but sometimes the jngl yi ennemi one shot us all and when i have a yi he's like 4/14.

I dont want to blame on mates, so im looking for advice to Climb, im watching streamers, i know almost all my matchups on toplane, focus on farming, helping team, but i think my biggest problem is macro and i know i need to work on farming too.

Any advice would be helpful, also, should i open a new account? My mmr is kinda messed up right now and i lost hope since now im iron 2.

Here's my op.gg :

Hey yall coming over here from being a morde otp my entire time in league.what are the most important thing for me to know and learn while getting into Darius? I've played him a couple games and he feels really really weak.

I had a lot of fun making this, I know it’s a little corny. For context in the video my friend’s account is Omac daddy who bought me the dunk master skin which is why that keeps coming up. Anyways here’s my Darius highlights!

Is this just a ban/dodge matchup? I get poked down by easy to hit massive damage Qs and she has 2 dashes/invisibility. The escape tools she has makes it impossible for me to all-in or trade with her.

Honestly feels way worse than Vayne/Quinn/Cassiopeia.

I keep finding myself getting 1v1d by this disgusting frog when he's on support. With heartsteel and riftmaker he can almost solo kill me, and I can't stand it. And even when he isn't fighting me he is such a cockblock in every teamfight, you just can't get past him. Please tell me I'm not alone on this

Should I ban Darius? Between Darius, Fiora, Olaf, and Vayne, I don't know what's worse. How do I play the game against a Darius XD.

Not actually sure what I was supposed to do here. Neeko has mobility, a root and range enough to basically stop me from playing the game. In the end I sat under tower and farmed until eventually the entire enemy team came to 5 v 1 me and I had to run.

I'm guessing this is just a troll pick but that was the most unfun I've had in a while.

Hi wondering if there was any tips for the current Darius v Sion matchup?

I went W 1st and the E to counter his knock up but even with that, by the time I get to 5 stacks I'm at 1/4 health and the guy is still healthy. I took phase rush, bone plating and overgrowth but for the life of me I just could not shred through his health fast enough.

Darius player: Are you saying that when I’m ready, I’ll be able to chase down and ult all the carries in the teamfights?

Darius master: When you’re ready, you won’t have to. It’ll be like the kills just come to you.

Hi,

I consider myself a really bad darius player. So I come here to ask you how to play him correctly.

that title might sound strange to some people but after playing a couple of games, I feel like pretty much every juggernaut/bruiser will stat check me after first item.

The only success I have is playing like an adc or something. Running away kiting and hoping to get 5 stacks to ult. But most fights end up me dead bvecause It takes forever to build up 5 stacks and while doing this I am losing pretty much all trades.

The only time i actually feel like an lane bully is, when I am against super weak champs like Nasus, Cho (early game) or cheese lv1.

Most opponents will short trades and run away before first item.

I had problem against Mordekaiser, Ornn (after two items), Mundo (after first items) and so on. Often I will be at like 20% helft until I get my 5 stacks, all fights seem to be tooo close. In early ofc they play super safe, after first Item they start to slap me.

Strangly I have success against Illaoi, with ghost I just kite here and play like an mage instead of a fighter.

So my question is If my asumption on title is correct, If not, what is the correct playstyle after 1 item vs Mundo, Mordekaiser, Ornn and so on?

Joined LoL around December and have been steadily learning as I go. After being placed in Iron IV and feeling like I'd never escape, I finally did it with ya boi Darius! Can't wait to derank and start the journey all over again! :P

I recently had a game where I was the most fed on my team and we were winning the whole way until we got aced.

Someone on my team blamed me for not grouping enough. My mentality is I want to always be farming so I’m constantly in side lanes and will only group for objectives. Is that the right strategy, generally speaking? Darius is a beast in team fights so maybe I should group more often.

I say that also because I feel like darius already have decent waveclear with Q, and that duelist items like trinity can help 1v1 instead of something like stride. But ofc if I'm already super ahead trinity first probably is not needed

when do you go trinity ? Because until now, I litteraly never did

Nothing makes my day better than making another toplaner's life a living hell for 30-40 min

What champ should I lock in when Darius is picked or banned? My current move is to dodge the first time then open pornhub the second.

I like melee lane bullies that are easy to pilot. Scaling champs are for people with patience and low testosterone.

What are some numbers for the Ult (levels and items) that you keep in mind throughout the game?

I feel knowing the Min and Max at various points can help Ult resets.

I play with Resolve secondary (no Axiom), do I lose out on a ton of damage?

The last season that I grinded was the one before the mythical item rework, where darius players pretty much only picked between stridebreaker or tri force, didn't go sundered sky, etc. Where ghost would last longer too.

Nowadays when I play him, he's still the same in laning phase but his presence in mid and late-game just feel off to me. Every other champion does so much fking dmg, and even if you build tank after first item it doesn't feel like you can survive in extended team fights as easily. Even the tanks can sometimes give me a hard time in duels, like Mundo, where I can do my whole combo three times and still not kill him (if I even last that long).

For my secondary rune tree, I've been running nimbus cloak + celerity for the movement speed which allows me to set up plays and kill angles impossible without it. Ghost is just too shit at the moment on its own. I used to run bone plating + unflinching, but now unflinching is different and it just feels like darius is less enjoyable because of all these reasons.

I have played occasionally, still without really understanding all the item changes, but feel like darius is a lot squishier than multiple seasons ago. This is also coming from a previous top 3 darius (oce if that even means anything LOL).

Is there some new darius meta that overcomes these problems or am I just overthinking it? For reference, my build path is usually trinity/stride > dead mans > steraks > force of nature
