just why is it permitted for darius to heal?

Because without it he's a bruiser with no gap closer who will suck just as bad post laning phase as before, except probably worse now that his E isn't bugged.

Because he's supposed to be a teamfight bruiser now.

His main problem before the rework was that if he built tank, he didn't have enough damage to do anything in teamfights, and if he built damage, he blew up before he could reach dunk-a-thon levels. The heal is an attempt to let him do a little of both.

As much as I hate the heal, I don't think it needs to be removed, but put more in line to renekton's sustain. Where it is a flat amount of health gained, not this % health bs.

One reason why old Darius sucks was that he does not have any lane/teamfight sustain, even despite after building excessive tank builds.

If you're complaining about Darius+Heal, you were either not around for, or dont remember Voli + Old heal, where Voli would proc passive during a 1v1 top lane, then pop heal, and suddenly be at full HP again while you're dying/dead.

• Change from: Instant heal
• Change to: Heal-over-time (or both).
