Daily Reminder Darius can get 30 free AD at level 1 with his passive and 230 free AD at level 18

So why the fuck does Darius even have a passive that gives him free extra AD because he landed 5 damaging abilities on an enemy champion? What was wrong with the old passive pre-5.16 where he got movement speed instead, now he can get 30 free AD at level 1 and 230 free AD at level 18 are you fucking kidding me?

230 FREE AD, ARE YOU MAD?

It isn't even hard to proc the passive 5 times because at level 18 you will be in teamfights, you just need to use E on a CC'ed target, then W then Q then auto 2 times and then get instant 5 BF Swords and 3 Long Swords worth of stats which for a regular champion would cost 7550 gold but for this champion he gets that shit for free without really doing anything. I have never heard of such a bullshit passive in any video game I have ever played, not just League.

And if that is not enough, his passive also bleeds the target and the damage of the bleed increases based on his AD. And if that is not enough, he also has armor penetration built into his E ability. It actually is ridiculous that a champion like this even exists in this game.

If you want to keep the free AD from the passive, then that shit needs to be nerfed. It should be 5-90 free AD not 30-230 free AD.

Because kiting means that passive does a whole lot of shit all. He has to wade through five people to do his damage so he should be rewarded for getting in.

But he should not be able to get 230 free AD. I don't mind if that number was like 90 or upto 150, but 230 free AD. No chance that is ridiculous.

Oh, in 5.16? When he was 100% pick/ban in LCS and dominated solo que to the rate where he was banned 80-90% of the time in ranked? Nothing was wrong. Nothing at all. Atleast know you can kite him, you can run into his Q to dodge a stack, his healing and most of the damage. Atleast his E has a 30 second cool down. Atleast when behind, he's way too squishy to do jack shit unlike Garen who always has his Villian R mechanic. You really think Darius is the issue right now?

You already are misunderstanding the champ. You said after an e w q and 2 autos he gets the passive ad. Wrong e does not damage so it doesn’t stack. You have to hit q w and three autos. If you’re a tank main I understand the sentiment because he can stack this easy off of you. If you’re a squishy and he hits you five times in a team fight you’ve gotta learn positioning way better then.

Also in all reality the reason people lose to Darius is they don’t understand when to back out of a trade. Everyone just goes ham and then realizes oh I’ve been trading with Darius for 10 seconds now I’ll back away. No, you hit him with a couple things and then kite him back. Then wait for bleed to fall off. Learn that you can’t play the same way vs every opponent.

Dude Darius is trash late game and he needs that ad to be even somewhat relevant. He is incredibly easy to kite (yes, even when he takes ghost) or cc lock, and many champs can easily rotate on him to prevent him building stacks. He gets straight up murdered by champs like tryn, fiora, and Jax these days, weak against control mages like annivia, dot and rylais mages like brand, and hyper dps or kite like kogmaw, vayne, or kalista. Can't even touch adcs like jhin anymore without both ghost and flash up, and even then it's hard to finish him unless he's a bonobo trying to solo you in your own jg or something. Darius is absolutely trash pre-5 staxks and ez AF to run away from if he gets 5 stacks on an ally unless you all got caught by a ton of cc (in which case you're screwed no matter who you are against). Honestly what's your deal man? Darius isn't even good at split pushing, and of all the snowballs champs he is one of the easiest to deal with due to lack of mobility, range, instaburst, or splitpushing power.
