Darius had 543(*) damage with a nearly full 6-item build.
Judging by the ridiculous amount of AD Darius has at this point (^) and the amount of damage you took from Crippling Strike + Noxian Guillotine, Darius had 5 stacks of Hemorrhage on you which means you fought him for a long period of time while staying in his melee range, a place where Juggernauts survive.
You have 4/5 items at this point, not a single one of them has any sort of armor. You're also running Sorcery and Domination, you don't have any sort of survivability from your runes either.
This means you have the base resistances on Ryze (who's relatively squishy, not the tankiest champion by any means) up against a high damage Juggernaut who thrives in extended fights. He's essentially doing true damage to you at all points of the game.
Ryze has a point and click root, a spell that can easily be used to get away from an all melee champion such as Darius. You can also E-W to root him for longer periods of time to get away from him. You can also use your ultimate to warp away from Darius, should you need to put a large distance between you two.
Nexus Blitz. Increased gold regen, shared gold, and increased EXP rates make this a place meant for snowballing and hectic teamfighting.

Yeah, staying in melee range of a Juggernaut while not building any resistances and fighting him for extended periods of time (where Darius thrives) probably wasn't the best idea.

Fought him for a long period of time? It says I fought him for 6 seconds. If that is considered long, then I'm done playing this game.
Explain how armor would have helped versus 1.1k true damage. I had 2 health items (Morello + fully stacked RoA) and fully stacked Seraphs.
Ryze has a point and click root that lasts 1.1s (empowered) when the enemy champion has Merc Treads. He had fully stacked Legend: Tenacity so he gains an additional 30% tenacity lowering my 1.1s to 0.6s root. He used ghost, so as soon as he got out of the root he was able to get on top of me. Me, on the other hand, am slowed for 1s by 40% which with base speed of let say 380, it becomes 190 which is low enough for him to get a second auto off. Ryze's root is probably one of the worst CC's in the game. They've literally bend over every single one of Ryze's abilities and fucked them in the ass. It's incredible how they invest so much time into Akali and Irelia when I can't root either of them for long enough to get away.

I wasn't in melee range to begin with. I was walking towards the team fight, he popped out of the bush, applied most of his stacks with his Q and hail of blades AS steroid while I was trying to get away. You would think that Ryze, a battle mage capable of sustaining and CC'ing (hah) repeatedly would be able to win extended trades. No, they took everything away from Ryze and gave him a little dick team teleport that no one uses.

6 seconds is a long time to be face tanking Darius with no armor.

Armor would have helped you survive long enough to escape or out damage him. The reason he did 1,100 true damage is because he fully stacked Hemorrhage on you because you stayed in his range for so long.

I don't understand how you can build 0 resistances, stay in his AA range, and then complain that the champion is too strong.

It still would have given you a chance to create some distance and allow your team to close in on Darius to make him back off. Your team also could have CCed for you as well considering you had a Malphite, Xayah, and Vel'Koz.

IMO Ryze is pretty bad atm but this had absolutely nothing to do with your champion choice.

I wasn't in melee range to begin with. I was walking towards the team fight, he popped out of the bush, applied most of his stacks with his Q and hail of blades AS steroid while I was trying to get away.

So... you were in his melee range. He used his vision advantage to ambush you and try to take you out. After his pull was used, you could have just ulted away because the 6 seconds it took you to die is a lot shorter than the 1-2 that Ryze's ult takes.

You would think that Ryze, a battle mage capable of sustaining and CC'ing (hah) repeatedly would be able to win extended trades.

Ryze can win extended trades if he plays it correctly and builds correctly.

But from the jump you had no distance between the two of you (Darius' advantage), he built effectively against you (Darius' advantage), you didn't build correctly against him (Darius' advantage again), and you didn't use your one reliable escape ability to get away from him.

As if Smash is balanced.

Smash is at least skill dependent. There is some skill in League but its overshadowed by the blatant imbalance and design choices.

I can play SSBU with my friends, pick Duck Hunt and do well. I can also pick Olimar and play like shit. Skill dependent.

Is it?

Last time I checked it was a party game. Super Smash brothers the original was close to being balanced. Melee was not balanced at all and is played to hell. Brawl is a joke in regards to balance. First Smash Wi was a joke in regards to how they tried to balance.

If you look at tier lists, you would know how balance works. Melee had the same tier list for years. Kirby is Garbage in the majority of the games.
