Darius easily became one of the worst Juggernauts over night

Now that fervor is gone, he does no damage and isn't compatible with any of the keystones except grasp. I feel like he's lost all respect as a lane bully and now when he reaches 5 stack's on his passive it doesn't mean much like it use to. When i use to play darius, i felt intimidating. But now i feel like im screwing myself if i lock him in.

And to be honest other champions have it worse, but it still sucks to have your main's viability almost completely change over one patch

Anyone else miss anything about their mains before the update?

Bruisers in general got gutted with the pre-season.

No fervor and no anti tank runes = tanks destroy you IN and OUT of lane, its completely stupid.

Good luck playing against maokai top without fervor as any bruiser atm, good luck dealing with tabi + bramble vest rush without the total % arpen mastery.

I mean, he is still viable, you just flat out build tank and get the rune gathering storms. Longer games make Darius stronger than that stack early game. Also, the rune Dark Harvest is busted.

Dark Harvest and Phase Rush are the truth for Darius. People using anything but those for their primary Mastery keystones are doing it wrong.
