Who Wins
- You lose level 1-3 trades due to Darius's superior early damage and bleed stacks.
- At level 6, you still lose all-ins if Darius has his ultimate available and can stack passive.
How to Trade
- You should use Q to break his slow from W, then immediately disengage with the movement speed boost.
- Never commit to extended trades as his passive will outdamage your regeneration.
Wave Control
- You want to push waves quickly with E and recall frequently to abuse your passive regeneration.
- Avoid freezing as Darius can zone you from CS and build leads through superior trading.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight Darius when he has 4-5 bleed stacks on you as his passive activation will result in your death.
- Don't waste your Q movement speed by using it to engage when you should save it to escape his ghost/flash engages.
