Introduction
Decimate was instant, and his pull was broken, because you pull people even when they flash out.Basic Darius logic is destroy early game, snowball other lanes and wait for that victory screen.
Since Darius falls off late game, I like to build a Black Cleaver and Titanic Hydra first so I can do as much damage as possible early, and go tank through mid and late game so I can peels for late game carries.
Runes
These are very basic runes for Darius. Most build may ask for armour penetration with marks, but since Darius already has 25% armour penetration and naturally builds a Black Cleaver, it is not very necessary to bring anymore armour penetration.
Seal
Seal of Armour is the most common rune for seals in general because everyone needs a little tank in them. Among all other Seal runes, it's either Seal of Armour or Seal of Scaling Armour, but as Darius you will fall off late game so you will the armour now.
Glyph
Seal of Magic Resist is likely to be the best for Darius instead of Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist because he needs his early game to be as strong as possible
Masteries
Fervor of Battle
for Darius because most of his attacks in a long run would be basic attacks, and it is better to use that rather than
Thunderlord's Decree
or
Deathfire Touch
because with Darius, you want to deal as much damage and since your passive will make you always in the trade off in the end, if you manage to get 5 stacks, your damage will be faster to kill them. The reason I don't focus on tank masteries is because Darius can end the game very fast just by destroying top lane and mid lane.Personally I do not like
Thunderlord's Decree
on Darius. With my experience as Darius I usually kill the enmy champion or they retreat and recall back to base. I can never use
Thunderlord's Decree
to its maximum potential.
Items
Black CleaverNormal item for the dunkmaster because basic attack gives movement speed over 2 seconds which would be very useful since Darius has low mobility. This item gives Darius a decent amount of health and damage. The cool down reduction from this item goes nicely since
Decimate heals for % of missing life giving extra sustain. Not only it allows his other skills like Apprehend to be used during a fight. Lastly of this item is the armour reduction which goes very nicely for Darius, especially the target he is fighting because it allows him and his team kill them faster (if they are AD champions) allowing Darius to dunk them. Dead Man's PlateVery important for Darius when starting a battle with Darius. This item will help him get to his opponents or allies quicker considering he is the tank in the team fight. Also this item gives a decent amount of health and armour for Darius which will likely to be enough.
Sterak's GageA very valuable item to Darius because this will save his life in team fights, or create his hit box larger allowing him to peel for enemy teammates in the frontline. Not only that, this gives Darius a good amount of health and some extra damage while at it, because who does like to do a little more damage?
Titanic HydraGiving a decent amount of health and damage, this item will add up with the rest of his items because most of this build is about building health. The more health Darius has, the more damage he will deal which is great. The cone shape from basic attacks will help him deal damage around enemies, and since he will use
Apprehend to pull everyone around him, it will deal damage to everybody, much like Decimate. Not only that, this will help build up Black Cleaver onto every enemy champion, allowing the AD champions deal a little more damage. Spirit VisageLike most of Darius's item, it gives a good amount of health. Darius will also give a good amount of magic resist and increases his healing by 10%. This will make his
Decimate very useful of the extreme sustain he will gain from the battle. Last thing is the cool down reduction from this item allowing his skills to be used more often. Boots of SwiftnessPersonally, I would always pick this item considering it gives the most movement speed among all boots other than mobility, but
Mobility Boots gives the big movement speed when not in combat, so this would the best choice. It also reduces the slowing by a small percentage allowing him not be as easily be kited. Warmog's ArmorThis item gives the most health among all items which will give a large bonus to
Titanic Hydra. Not only that, this gives Darius a huge boost in regenerative health when finishing a battle if you manage to live during battles. You will most likely live if you win the teamfight which allows you go regenerate to full health and tank towers if you are not the only one alive.
Team Work
Summoner Spells
Ignite or Teleport. My choice relates to which keystone mastery you would like to prefer. Whenever I am running
Deathfire Touch
, I would bring Teleport because the other top laner is either going to throw in the towel or feed you because of the amount of DOT you give them. I once brought down Garen to over 100 health, but I had maximum bleeding stacks and Deathfire touch on him and it already killed him.I was amazed how much life he had life and the DOT that was set on him. The bleeding stacks gave about 20x5= 100 DOT damage over a few seconds and Deathfire touch had about half of what the bleeding stacks gave off. During that game I brought Teleport and had reach to level 6. I teleported down to bottom lane and got another double kill. But I like to run Fervor of Battle because I like running down to mid lane and help the mid lane gank with the jungler at bot lane while I take care of top lane and mid lane since I already win against both champions.
How to Pentakill
This can only occur during teamfight or when you use
Teleport down to bottom lane but here is how I got the second one. During a teamfight takedown anyone who jumps on your AD Carry. If you manage to dunk on the person that jumped on your AD Carry, flash or walk into all four of the enemy champions and use Decimate. This will give maximum bleeding stacks on all champions. After this, it just Slam Slam SLAM! and boom goes the dynamite, there is the pentakill.
