Who Wins
- You lose early 1v1s levels 1-3 as Darius has superior base stats and Q healing while your empowered Q lacks the damage to trade favorably.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure with R engage potential, but Darius still wins extended trades if he lands Q outer ring and gets 5 stacks.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using bushes to stack ferocity on minions, then leap with empowered Q for burst before immediately disengaging with W movement speed.
- Never commit to extended trades as Darius will out-sustain and out-damage you in prolonged fights.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain brush control and keep waves in neutral positions to enable your leap engages while denying Darius easy freeze opportunities.
- Avoid hard shoving as you become vulnerable to ganks and lose your bush positioning advantage.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight Darius in open lane without ferocity stacks or when he has ghost available, as you lack escape tools once he lands E.
- Don't underestimate his level 6 all-in potential with R execute damage even when you have your ultimate available.
