Items
MYTHIC |
✦ ![]() synergizes with Darius kit very well. After the HP changes this seems to be one of the best items on Darius again. Good item for 1v1 in sidelane. |
✦ ![]() offers alot of sustain and good dmg against tanky champions. The buildpath is decent, sadly the mythic passive is not the best for Darius. Into tank comps this item is decent tho. |
✦ ![]() Darius scales well with HP since his ![]() |
✦ ![]() with good positioning and if your team has a Frontline besides you this item makes it really hard to kite Darius. Once completed it is nearly impossible to escape Darius. Against a full ranged comp this item is a must buy. |
2ND ITEM |
![]() |
Death's Dance
| good armor item that offers good survivability against burst. Really strong item to take over a game. |
![]() |
Dead Man's Plate
| the 40ms passive makes this item really strong on champs like Darius. Even tho it is expensive for it's stats it is worth it. |
![]() |
|
![]() |
![]() |
Black Cleaver
|
strong stats and offers movementspeed even from ![]() ![]() ![]() If the enemy builds ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() |
Hullbreaker
|
same stats as ![]() |
3RD ITEM |
![]() |
Force of Nature
| good movementspeed item with HP and MR, buy this if enemy has a big AP Carry or 2-3 AP heavy champs. |
![]() |
Maw of Malmortius
|
good item against AP burst. Also offers alot of dmg. Combined with ![]() |
OTHER ITEMS |
![]() |
Guardian Angel
|
good against a fed assassin/burst mage. Also Darius ![]() |
![]() |
Anathema's Chains
|
this item offers an insane amount of HP and you can bind the biggest threat (assassin, burst mage). Darius biggest weakness is getting killed before he can ramp up his damage. Also the HP scales insanely well with ![]() ![]() |
![]() |
Gargoyle Stoneplate
| offers good amount of survivability for Darius, but the buildpath is pretty bad. |
OR | OR | Anti Heal Items depend on the game. There is no clear best item. | |||
Chempunk Chainsword
|
Mortal Reminder
|
Thornmail
|
OR | Either of those items are good as 4th+ item if you need more resistance. | ||
Frozen Heart
|
Randuin's Omen
|
All other Tank Items are great for Darius, since late game his role is more that of a tank than a bruiser.
TL;DR





Gameplay
LANE In the first 4 waves try to crash the 2nd or 3rd depending on matchup and let it bounce back into you and run the enemy down when the wave is close to your tower. |
LV1 There are only a few champs that Darius can not beat with starting W Lv1. Against Meele try to get lv2 first and all in if possible. Against ranged farm as much as possible, but do NOT trade HP for minions. The enemy jungler can dive you and you will fall behind very hard. Especially if you get dove on the 3rd wave. If you can get firstblood lv1 against a TP user - reset! Do NOT stay and fight again. |
LV2-LV3 !BUT League is very chaotic do not try cookie cutter Macro every single game! |
LV6+ |
MID GAME |
TEAMFIGHT Get your ![]() |
RESSOURCES Take as many ressources as possible. Enemy jungle should be your jungle. Deny as much ressources as possible by crashing waves in the tower and if possible zone the enemy away from the tower. |
GROUP VS SPLIT Depending on the amount of enemy engage options you need to group more against a Leona/Malph/Naut then you need against a Ziggs/Tryn/Soraka. |
LATE GAME![]() ![]() ![]() |
TEAMFIGHT At this point in game you just want to peel for your strongest carry. Stand next to them and deny the enemy a chance to kill them. Your best bet is to get a 5 Stacks ![]() |
