Who Wins
- You lose early 1v1s at all levels due to Darius's superior base stats and Q sustain, but you can start winning post-6 if you maintain distance and use R for repositioning.
- His level 6 R execute threshold makes extended trades extremely dangerous even when you have your ultimate.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern involves auto-Q-auto for W proc while immediately using E to create distance before he can respond with E pull.
- Never commit to extended trades as his passive bleed stacks and Q healing will always favor him in longer engagements.
Wave Control
- You must freeze the wave near your tower to deny him farm and force him to overextend for CS, as pushing leaves you vulnerable to his E-W-Q combo.
- Slow pushing is acceptable only when you have jungle pressure, but never fast push as you lack escape tools if he runs you down.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use E aggressively for damage or to interrupt his Q animation, as losing your only escape tool against his E pull is often fatal.
- Avoid trading when your Q is on cooldown since you lose your primary repositioning tool and become an easy target for his combo.
