Does Darius lose any melee matchup?

It's a real pain in the ass when there aren't any ranged tanks that haven't been gutted Gnar, and it seems like he wins matchups against ranged as most Darius players take summoner 6 and get item 3044 and run you down.

im kind of tired of this thread coming up every other week

Aatrox Yorick XinZhao Fiora Akali Rumble Trundle beat darius

Riven Illaoi Pantheon Renekton skill matchups

darius crushes tanks and yasuo, almost everyone else who doesn't have dog shit early can fight him and beat him

Good options would probably be: Yorick Fiora Kled Renekton

Yorick is a little bitch against champs like Darius

You think Dar will win until Yorick lays down his box, ults and runs away

And Darius is like "what killed me" before checking to see the maiden chunked him for half his health while Yorick was running away

that's a fucking fun feature

The key against Darius is to dodge his Q heal. If you can do that consistently, he's pretty easy to beat to be honest.

Master Yi can absolutely crap on him. Just use the Yi Q to dodge the Darius Q every time and he is basically helpless.

Most Darius players are actually bad with him too, which is why people are listing a decent number of champs that 'beat him', those are the champs that can beat bad Darius players, good ones....only pure melee that honestly has a decent chance is Trundle because he can sustain even when being zoned thanks to his passive, and thus play the sustain game into Darius and stall long enough to outscale. Dodging his Q doesn't save you from a competent Darius (it helps), because the good ones will save their E for when you try to disengage your trade (since you don't want to have an extended trade because of his bleed and the threat of him getting 5 stacks and summarily destroying you with the bullshit amount of free bonus AD he gets). They'll yank you back in, finish bleed stacking you up, and either force you to flash or outright kill you.

Illaoi usualy molests darius,if you pull his soul out you dont even have a reason to chase him so he cant even try to kite you to land his q.
