I need a serious help about juggernauts.

Hello guyz, I am jungle main, often playing mages and adcarries. I have problem with juggernaut, somewhere I read juggernaut are heavy damage dealers with lack of mobility. But the problem is that it's almost impossible to keep distance, I played against illaoi that just dealt 400 with w and 1000 with hentai tentacles = I was oneshotted. I really tried hard to kite but animation is too long and I cant escape her w. + I have to deal with them for too long and single mistake can just ruin all my work with kiting. Other juggernauts like garen are even worse because they don't give a fck and just go for me thru 2 towers with massive speed boost=I am oneshotted. The other part, how I can counter juggernaut with melee champion? I found that possible only with fiora and when fed enough it might be fizz. That's why I hate to gank top lanes because when our top laner die too quickly I cannot steal that kill=I have absolutely no xp and absolutely no gold=I have too farm and farm and farm or steal and steal and steal. Let's make a situation, 4/0 darius standing still at bot. It's 4v1, our top laner is pushing top, 3/0 zed, 3/0 vayne and 2/2 lee and support are going in. After a long period of time darius is at half health. Now vayne get a little fps drop, a little lag causes to late q and darius hit q. boom, darius at full HP ult vayne=one kill, e lee, aa lee, ult, second kill. flash to zed, aa, ult, third kill, support is trying to escape, darius ult first, q aaaand it's done. I'm really trying to figgure it out but I always die like some scrub when trying to face them.

Darius heal caps at 36% he couldn't have healed to full if he was at half.

Illaoi's W is her auto attack dash, which has tiny range. Did you mean her E, the Test of Spirit?

The other part, how I can counter juggernaut with melee champion?

You can't, generally. Their weaknesses are usually range and mobility, and the strengths are usually damage and durability. So 1-on-1, if you stay near a juggernaut, the juggernaut will usually have an advantage. 2-on-1 or 3-on-1 won't necessarily help because of their itemized durability and kit sustain. Kiting and CC are your friends. Lee Sin and Zed aren't going to help much against Darius if he's already fairly fed.

So Vayne not dying is step 1. Step 2 depends a lot on what your support is. I play a lot of support Vel'Koz, so Darius in particular is really easy for me to deal with; I can damage him from range and hit him with a strong slow so he can't retaliate. A lot of support characters are great at this, and can 2v1 with a strong damager-over-time ADC like Vayne. Leona, Alistar, Braum, Nautilus, Tahm Kench, Zyra, Karma, and Morgana are some of the other supports that have multiple forms of CC (often from range) that can keep him in place for you. Zed or your support Igniting him can also help.
