Introduction

Hello, my name is Sixxth Berry. While I may not be the best LoL player, I personally love builds, items, and champion itemization. After picking up Darius again after his rework, I fell in love with his kit. His has lots of damage and sustain, and using , you can pull in the enemy before you dunk them with . His passive effect, Noxian Might also gives you insane power throughout the game, and makes your teamfighting one of the best if you can proc it.
This guide will be updated throughout Season 6, and I will try to update it with each patch.

Greater Quintessence of Attack DamageEXPLANATION

Other Viable Choices

Greater Glyph of Magic Resist : These can be an option if you are facing a heavy AP team with an enemy jungler who might invade you early, or who you might end up fighting in the early game at some point, but I still like the .

Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed : These will help you to get around the map a lot easier, and work best if you've substituted AS marks for the AD marks.

Item Sequence

SPACE

Skirmisher's Sabre - Devourer

is a core item on , giving him everything that he needs, attack speed, and magic damage on his autoattacks, which scales up as the game goes longer. This allows him to become a late game beast. Plus, the allows him to duel nearly anyone in the game fairly easily with the challenging smite. Once your devourer becomes Sated, you gain a huge power spike.

Ninja Tabi

is a fairly strong choice of boots on . It gives him some armor, as well as a helpful passive. You almost always want these boots when the enemy team has more than one champion who uses autoattacks often, such as , , or . is very nice for protecting your base if you need to defend.

Blade of the Ruined King

is the perfect item on , giving him attack speed, lifesteal, and a small amount of AD. It's passive also synergizes very well with his ult, procing it 5 times. The active also is really helpful for chasing, giving some much needed cc.

Frozen Mallet

I really like picking up a on because the slow allows you to chase very easily, plus, it gives a ton of health, almost as much as a and the small AD boost is nice as well.

Randuin's Omen

is an overall great defensive option, it gives a lot of armor and health, and the slow on that active is good for catching up to enemies when your active is down, plus the Cold Steel passive is nice against ADC's and melee autoattackers.

Spirit Visage

is a fantastic item on . He is already a sustain god, and this item gives him a nice chunk of MR, health, health regen, and a small amount of cdr. But the best part of this item on is it's passive. The passive on gives more healing on his q, passive, and more lifesteal.
