Why can Renekton be buffed but Darius can't?

They have identical identies of crushing in the early, attempting to carry in the mid game if they got fed, and either be a sponge with CC and damage or be a resetting dunkmaster late game.

Why can't Darius get SOME love?

Because countering just about every melee top laner isn't enough. He needs buffs.

He doesn't counter every melee top and can be baited easily in lane for a jungler gank, or before you go all in.

When I play against a Darius I bait his Q out, if he misses I can all in him as early game the cooldown is so high that if he misses his Q he loses a lot of damage and is much weaker in an all-in.

Oh, okay. He's only good if he doesn't play like a moron. Much like the rest of the champion roster.

He's a braindead champ in being stronger than the opponent and they have to be smarter than him to beat him, why not rework him?

Every time someone suggests he should be reworked to be healthier people say Darius's kit is fine and needs no changes.

Yet they also say he counters all melees and that shouldn't happen.

Then make your thread a "rework Darius" thread instead of a "buff him" thread.

I have numerous times and have gotten the same response, his kit is fine and doesn't need a rework.

Now im asking for buffs and get opposite responses

you're delusional if you think there is any other reason people are afraid of darius being viable.

You're right, nobody wants to hear the bronze and silver QQ again which got him nerfed.

Because they enjoy people like you buffing up forum traffic with all the Darius threads obviously.

Haven't made a Darius thread for a few days now, I don't know what you're saying.
