I find it interesting after all that bitching and lying, Darius "mains" still use Phase Rush most

Despite the constant bitching and loathsome lying that Darius was weak and, hilariously, lacking a keystone, Darius mains still exploit Phase Rush most. And with all that crying, he received compensation buffs.

I'm wondering if bitching on mass is all it takes.

Phase Rush is bad in general, and the Darius buffs didn't do anything to change that. Not to mention the Darius buffs were focused on damage (which helps his ability to bully the lane more) and not mobility or durability (which would help him late game, which is what he's lacking currently). Best buff of the three is probably W CD reduction from 9 8 7 6 5 to 7 6.5 6 5.5 5.

And for other Darius mains still using Phase Rush ... try Glacial Augment in Inspiration and max W first. Not having to dive their tower early on for a kill is good.

Darius actually doesn't fall off late like people make it out to be

Not really sure what you want me to take away from the link: under the trends tab for win percentage based on game length, he starts at 9th at 20-25 minutes (pretty good, no doubt about that), then falls below 50% at 30-35 minutes before jumping back up to 14th at 40-45 minutes. However, I have to inquire just how long the average game lasts dor 8.4, which may determine if that 30-35 minutes is mid game or late game.

because nothing is better than phase rush lol doesn't mean it's good

you HAVE to pick one keystone at the end of the day.

just because you have a bunch of shitty options, doesnt make the least shitty and hence most used option great.

grasp of the undying and phase rush are probably the best keystones available for garen at the moment. that doesnt mean theyre good or generally very helpful. it just means other options are even worse.

I'd thought the complaints regarding Phase Rush is about that Stormraider's was better.
