Darius Changes?

1: Quality of life change: Either I'm colorblind or the dunkmaster darius skin's q has a border that does not go as far as the actual ability, making it harder to dodge, and maybe make it a bit more opaque instead of the transparent color that blends into the ground in some places

3: Quality of life change: A marker like Zeds ult to show which champions Darius can ult and kill for the reset (Maybe just for Darius, maybe for all players)

4: Remove the cripple function on his w, as his e is more than enough cc and it's anti-fun to be unable to run from a guy who's kit is built on taking on a bunch of people who want to fight and aren't just running away. Ideas for buffing it back up so its not underpowered: Give it an aoe damage like malphite's w autos or give it bonus bleed stacks

5: Have the q slow darius by a small amount while casting to make it more possible to outrun him or outplay him but give him a short movespeed boost upon hitting the q blade part.

As if the q outline is not already screaming "IM Qing YOU !" If anything they should remove the outline of the axe. You can very easily tell he is going to q you by the beginning of his animation.

You also want to remove the w slow which is his only reliable way of him hitting the edge of his q in a duel? Also darius counters immobile Tanky opponents because of armor pen true damage and they can't dodge his q . On the other hand mobile high dps fighters destroy him later on because they just jump on him whenever darius tries to q. So he never heals from it. (Jax and fiora should always q on top of Darius when he tries to q them )

I don't mind the execute indicator even though experienced darius players simply look at how much hp the target has (when they reach 5 stacks ) and knowing that the ult does approximately 300/600/900 damage. Can tell if the ulti will kill or not. I guess it would be nice when you want to dunk an entire team though.

All for QoL changes. Don't know how you're meant to avoid that Q without a dash. And its counterplay, is counter-intuitive. You need to escape darius, so run towards him to avoid his Q, which in turn puts u in range of his slow, pull and ult.

I think the marker would take the skill out of it, so not a good idea

During the juggernaut rework they specifically said that they did not want to add an execute indicator for Darius . The reason is that since it resets on kills there is literally no reason to not ult someone if u see it. Especially considering that at rank 3 the cooldown is fully reset and it costs no mana. With Garen and Chogath there are no resets so it's ok.

Also u went straight from 1-3
