I would imagine that Akali vs Darius solotop, the Akali would be zoned out(counting on equal skill, although even with more skill, Darius would still have the greater chance of coming out as the victor. Considering she is melee, which makes it easier for Darius to pull, harass, passive proc...she would be stuck tower farming and/or using Q's to last hit, yes?)

So I honestly doubt Akali would shine in that lane, unless a competent jungler camps top lane to shut down Darius.

Plus the fact that Akali is an assassin that specializes in demolishing squishy targets (which Darius definitely is not), and she is mediocre at best against even tanky dps', if she doesn't get an alright early game, pre level 6.

Akali can counter some top champs which focus on point and click skills.
But I find it hard to secure a kill after they get extra hp,even just a heart of gold.
Darius' Q really hurts if got hit by too much...but post 6 after I see him used it at minions I just Q>R>AA run the **** back and it still works quite effectively....

I see akali as a special counter for some top champs.... One typical example is Tyrn, akali can rape him easily =D

jax vs darius is a skill matchup. if darius hits 6 and you haven't sufficiently ****ed him up by then he's gonna win all trades.

Thanks to Xiaowiriamu for the sig!

So, why trade with him? Just farm, you scale way better.

BTW: I outzoned a Jax with Nasus aswell(OP lifesteal is OP, OP slow is OP, OP ult is OP, OP Q-farm is OP), he isn't the greatest at early levels.
He is gonna kill you!!!
