Who Wins
- You lose level 1-3 trades due to Darius's superior base damage and passive stacks.
- At level 6, you can win if you execute a perfect combo and avoid his Q outer ring, but he still has kill pressure on you.
How to Trade
- You need to use short trades with E-W-Q combo then immediately disengage before he can auto you multiple times.
- Never extended trade as his passive will kill you once he gets 5 stacks.
Wave Control
- You should freeze the wave near your tower to force him to overextend for CS.
- Avoid pushing early as Darius excels in long lanes where he can run you down with ghost.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight him when he has 4-5 passive stacks as his damage becomes overwhelming.
- Don't use your E defensively too early in trades as you need it to escape his pull range.
