Let the low elo players come and downvote and huff and puff that "b-b-b-b-but he deserved it because I'm too bad to try and learn how to deal with him! I swear I'm not shit and I have good game knowledge I just can't move my hands fast that's why im in bronze!"
And this sub-50% win rate is paired with a still pretty decent 7+% pick rate, so it's not like we have a small sample pool here folks.
Hyperiön3 votesAccording to OP.GG. Darius is sitting at a 50.41% Win rate in Plat+. It was 52.31% before that.
He had a 14.93% pickrate in patch 7.1. In Patch 7.2, he is still sitting at a 10.55% Pickrate.
I think Darius is perfectly fine where he is at.
Very Hard Engage1 votesexcept hes not, as always, darius is trash in comp and he loses to anyone who can kite. but hes brain dead win lane and 1v2 when the jungler shows up.
Hyperiön1 votesThat is how Darius always was.
dominusx2 votesNERF AATROX BUFF CAITLYN GIVE VAYNE +3 AD AND MAKE SYNDRA ULT DO TRUE DMG. that's the ONLY way the game will be balanced.
Kaioko2 votesIt's not the low ELO players I see huffing and puffing - it's the high level ones claiming that the nerf was uneeded since he was already useless in high rank gameplay. 49.2% win rate in Diamond after the nerfs means the nerfs definitely did not kill him so I guess those high ELO players are incorrect.
MissingKayo2 votesTo be fair, didn't he have like 58% winrate prior to nerfs? 49.2% isn't that bad for a champion type (juggernaut) that does worse against better players anyways.

he never went up that high, ever...
WoonStruck2 votesSo a champion barely has under a 50% winrate in diamond.
Point? There are several. Both more popular and less popular.

Then you look at his winrate by ranked games played with him and it spikes up to 55% after ten games in diamond hahahahahahahahah!
Notice also that taking flash and ghost instead of flash and tp brings his win rate over 53% lmao.
CrimsonReaps1 votesI played darius directly after his nerfs and it didn't feel much different. I still decimated my lane opponent, then got camped, then got 6 and went from 1/2 to 3/2. Although his teamfights are weaker. I feel as though the nerfs were helpful so my top laners stop losing to him, but a bit harsh.
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votesi never said he needs a nerf...
i thought having a heal on his Q is a lil much but other then that i was fine with him
RlP K0BE1 votesChampions like 
get nerfed because god forbid that a champion exists that you have to think about to handle them...
AMYS GRAVE1 votes49.2% win rate in diamond
So he's balanced then. What's the problem here?
snibedi snab1 votesEveryone complains about balance in League because Riot try and pander to the shitters while attempting to keep pro level play diverse and interesting. Of course the shitters have louder and more persistent bitch-fits so Riot just end up cow-towing to that instead of ignoring them and balancing around high-elo, making the game better balanced, more interesting and leaving the shitters to either stay shit or git gud.
Sona Ping1 votesAnd has a 53.84% Diamond winrate in Korea....
