Has Darius finally been ruined?
This guy has been continuously nerfed since the juggernaut update that I'm starting to question whether his rework was a failure. I think he has legitimately stopped being fun for me to play after all the direct and indirect nerfs.
Darius feels strong against those don't know how to play against him but against anyone that does is where he ends up feeling incredibly weak if you don't just hard counter the opponent. His sticking power has gotten so bad now that players are running ghost over tp on him now just so that they can actually stick to someone. It even reflects in his items. Players are sacrificing durability/survivability for move speed items so they don't get kited forever.
This guy needs a buff to his base movespeed and to his E or W slow.
edit: he is also notoriously weak to ganks as well. Darius has a reputation of being a 1vX champion but that's only if he is ahead. But that basically applies to almost all the top lane roster as well and isn't unique to him or a select few. Yet for a champion with awful catch/chase potential he also has terrible escape capability as well which is pretty dumb.
as Darius because they have it or better scaling.
as a more common item on him so far.
