I love Darius

But...you can't get full stacks of hemorrhage in most situations, so I have this humble suggestion for his Q:

Hold down Darius' Q to charge it up and release to execute the attack; if released prematurely it only inflicts 1 stack of hemorrhage and at full charge .75 seconds it inflicts 2 stacks.

Essentially it works like Sion's W, premature it does less, full on it does more, but most importantly it gives you flexibility. Best of both worlds?

Additional Thoughts/Variations

Add more charges with longer timers per charge to get even more stacks
No charging just give all his attacks hemorrhage

To broken lvl 1 bush Daruis basically an instakill, also you should easily get stacks to full unless its a ranged top like vlad, jayce

The % chance can scale with level so it's less potent at lower levels, I should add the addendum that after its fully charged it goes off. Or the % chance could scale with stats like health or AD, with a cap for tuning ofc.

Believe RIOT said that they would never use RNG effects besides Crit

Then you could play around with maybe 3 charges max with a longer charge time per charge, if the RNG doesn't work out. Or maybe it could be very simple with just 2 charges, you either spam and get 1 stack or charge to .75 and get 2 stacks sort of like Sion's W where if you execute it prematurely you get a slow but if you fully charge it you get a stun.

I... What Darius are you playing? Yeah it's not super easy to get stacks on a target, but if your opponent is melee and needs to have extended trades to do good damage, you'll get 5. Even then if they come out on top just pull them back and force them to deal with you more. Also considering the huge power boost he gets when he does (you are basically forced to run, because you CANNOT fight him) I'd say its a fair trade-off.

But any good player won't sit there and let you do that, which is the point. I mean sure he's great against bad players but pretty much most champs are xD

Updated the OP to have the more balanced suggestion at the forefront.
