That Darius completely outclass Garen. One is almost always picked, the other is left in a corner.

Is is because Darius too similar to Garen as far as role goes, but just better?

Or is Darius just better in pro play and Garen better in solo queue? I wonder.

Discuss.

i think it's because Darius has a higher skill ceiling with a higher payoff. Garen has a lower skill floor but isn't as impactful as a master tier Darius, not that we've seen many master tier Darius.

also Garen was picked in pro play. I think it was in the EU summer or spring split.

Think its better to say that they are often far to easily kites and/or peeled.

Their success often lies around hard cc or a lulu in the midlane.

I can't recall ever seeing garen get serious pro playtime. That's nothing new

Even the reviews of patchnotes covered this. Garen is good in solo q. Darius is more team reliant. What exactly would garen bring to a team comp?

Garen is probably easier to deal with because pros actually coordinate to protect their carries properly.
