As someone who has been a top lane main for years, I can tell you that Darius is vastly easier to play and would probably be a better choice. Illaoi is still new, and her kit takes more complexity.

Darius can beat an Illaoi most of the time. It's a skill matchup really, neither one is a direct counter to the other but having an execute ultimate makes Darius and Garen capable of stopping her healing really easily by just killing her.

As for who is better for a team? Darius probably. Illaoi is easily countered by moving, most people know this and know not to stay nearby when she ults, etc. Illaoi in a team fight that is like in the jungle and overall a mess of a fight will do well, but Darius can do well in fights anywhere on the map.

Basically, Illaoi is easier to counter than Darius, so Darius is the better option.

better for what? lets say you are in world finals with your team and you are toplane and for strategic reasons you have to firstpick. isay firstpick darius over illaoi any time.

lets say you are in aram and you got darius while your friend got illaoi. i say better swap with him.

You're level 12, why not use that IP to get 2 or 3 champs instead of just one newer one?

If you play to play ranked I would say neither. They are both almost always banned right now in bronze which is where you'd probably start. If you want to just team builder then Illaoi. So broken even compared to Darius

You should take master yi. Early game is shit but late game there is no stopping him 1 vs 1 . And jungle master yi is the best.
