Darius's 90% Slow Level 1

FrostedSands·7/2/2018, 3:18:44 PM·1 votes·803 views

ACTIVE: Darius' next basic attack within 4 seconds gains 25 bonus range, deals bonus physical damage and Slow icon slows the target by 90% for 1 second.

BONUS PHYSICAL DAMAGE: 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60% AD If Crippling Strike kills its target it refunds its mana cost and half of its Cooldown reduction icon cooldown.

Crippling Strike resets Darius's autoattack timer.

You're telling me that Darius can have an AA reset that applies bleeding stacks, gains range, does more damage, AND SLOWS BY 90% AT RANK 1?????

That's a bit overloaded. Not to mention it gives all the mana back if it kills so it's literally a last hitting tool.

Literally the least of Darius's problem. Looks as if you're just looking for something to complain.

Low damage scaling tho, it doesn't do much damage at early ranks, besides early game it consumes quite a bit of mana, also the slow is only 1 second

God forbid a lane bully to have strong tools in the early game.

You’re actually complaining about one of the weakest top laners in the game? Lol

Darius has many other problems that need to be adressed.

-For example he is able to apply all stacks of Black Cleaver with just one auto attack/ability thanks to his bleed. You're practically playing with 24% less armor permanantly against him as soon as he has Black Cleaver making Tanks completely useless against him. -He also gets free Armor pen on his E, which frankly isn't much at the beginning but still another 10% armor down the shitter from pretty much the beginning. -Except for his E his cooldowns are rediculously low and he tends to build cdr which makes them even lower. -His mana expenses are jokingly low since he never NEEDS to go in the offense against most melees and many ranged champs because he outtrades most of them anyway, no matter if they or Darius engages and his spells cost nearly no mana (seriously on lvl 3 a full rotation of his spells costs 105 mana and only grows to 125 when his Q reaches rank 5). That COMBINED with his W giving him easy last hitting without really needing mana is a problem. -His Ult does't just deal double damage at 5 stacks of his passive but more like 2.5-3 times its base damage thanks to Noxian Might which he can effortlessly achieve with Ghost/Phaserush. -Overall he just gets to many free stats. 10% - 30% Armor pen and 30 - 230 bonus AD. That's pretty much a Last Whisper + 3 Longswords at lvl 3 to a Lord Dominic's + 4 B.F. Swords at lvl 18. -Lastly thanks to his Hemorrage all his damaging skills and auto attacks have at least a 30% bonus AD scaling on top of their normal scaling.
