Darius still too strong

Jonners··4 votes·1,565 views

You've turned a nurf into a buff and Darius is still too overpowered. Those who play Darius will say he's fine but those against will say he's too strong. I've played him and went against him and he needs another "nurf" and at this point it needs to be a REAL nurf.

Its overall a nerf, its very unlikely to hit 3 people with an edged q even in team fights, I won't argue it could be seen as a buff but lets not discuss unlikely situations.

If we keep nerfing his heal then his W needs to be compensated with more damage since theres almost no reason to level it at the moment except -1s CD per rank.

It might be an overall nerf but it's still the fact that he's too big of a bully in lane and will win most 1v1 or 1v2 fights and while he might get fed in lane will be able to take on more.

I'm sorry but why does Darius have a heal anyways? I thought his weakness was lack of sustain and lack of mobility?

To be a good melee champion in today's game, you honestly need sustain and tankyness of SOME sort (or other ways to avoid damage).

His heal is definitely overtuned atm (I hope they go with Meddler's idea of making it a flat heal + a much smaller % of missing health) but its not really something that makes him gamebreaking in and of itself.

OT: Darius' Q mana cost increase is definitely a bigger nerf than it would first appear to be, a 20 mana cost increase on a skill you use constantly, is a pretty big substantial hit.

His healing strength is the bigger problem though, once that gets toned down I think he'll be fine (might be a bit of an issue for him on the competitive side of things though)

I don't see how having a decreased %healing & scaling mana is in anyway considered a "buff".

Here's something to know. Jayce. Jayce is decently strong against all of the juggernauts, but is best at making Darius and Morde players cry for daring to pick either of those two champions.

I'll be picking him up next then, I always ban Darius but it's good to know that if it's not banned then I know what to use to counter him because Teemo gets REKT hard.
