Looking for a brute force tank, olaf and darous both come to mind, in terms of kit and appearance. Which one is better?

Olaf and Darius are juggernauts, not tanks.

Olaf does a great job at diving backline because he doesn't care about your CC. He'll just run towards carries and kill them or die like a bitch.

Darius gets kited pretty fucking easiliy, but his Q allows him to stay alive for really long. He is great at cleaning up with his Noxian might and the resets on Noxian guillotine. He does fall off lategame though.

If you are looking for a brute force tank I'd recommend Sion. He's a tank who can brute force a fight like a total boss, and is a ton of fun to play. Remember he is a tank though, he is not the one dealing the damage. His CC allows your teammates to damage the enemies for free :P

I swear, these random downvotes for topics is just starting to really irritate me. But anyway, Olaf and Darius are juggernauts indeed. Though they can still function as tanks. Olaf is much better at chasing targets down, thanks to his ultimate and his Q which can permanently slow someone if you manage to maintain picking up the axe. Darius is just a monster that can easily change the course of a teamfight with several ultimates, healing up for a large amount of health, and tons of bleeding.

Olaf is actually a lot harder to kite than what most people would think, while Darius struggles with kiting.

Darius is a juggernaut, although he can build straight up tank that isnt usually recommended.

Darius has way better sustain than olaf but as noted here, he can get kited easily. Darius feels much more brutish than olaf (the feel of leaping into the air and slamming onto people in rapid succession after swinging your axe on everyone is incredible).

Olaf falls off harder than darius but has a little bit more oppressive early game.

Darius is probably an easier champion to learn, and is also balance-wise not as weak as olaf seems to be.

As a Darius main, I would recommend darius lol.
