Who can NOT get demolished in lane vs. Darius?

You're in bronze and you seem to have never played nasus, or at least you haven't played him in a while. Allow me to help you since I do have extensive experience with nasus and some experience with the nasus vs darius matchup as both nasus and darius.

Nasus needs to go in to stack or he loses A LOT of CS. Darius can always Q nasus then.

Nasus can't use his slow just to kite out of Darius' slow. Darius' slow has a low cost and is spammable, nasus slow chunks his mana very fast if he uses it too much. Also, nasus' slow doesn't last long enough for a complete disengage after level 3 when darius gets his pull alongside his W.

Basically, nasus is completely reliant on the jungler to change his lane.

I think a good Nasus can do OK verse a Darius. I see the matchup so much as a Nasus main that I became very accustomed to laning verse and . Typically, against a good Darius the best a Nasus can do is match CS if the Nasus is of comparable skill. But if the Darius is overly aggressive a Nasus can capitalize on his mistakes (over extending, taking a turret shot etc.). I pretty much just try not to die against Darius and his kit is pretty telegraphed. Also I put points into W after Q instead of E to keep Darius away from me and increase the potency of the slow. Wither is only 80 mana at all ranks so casting it if Darius threatens you isn't too much of an issue.

Darius is easy to gank and a proficient jungler should be able to recognize when he can be killed. I also ping him to retreat if I know we can not both kill him before his approach. I just farm under turret most of the time against him. I usually just pay attention to Darius' abilities and his mana. I've grown so accustomed to the matchup that I can tell whether the Darius is good very quickly and adjust my play accordingly. I probably could play Darius in the top lane even though I never touched the champion by just mimicking the good Darius players. That's how frequently I lane against him. Other champions like ,, and I have a harder time with. Ekko if they they are good disrupt my farming early a lot.

Yes you can dodge his Q by walking out of range as it has a brief delay. Then dash onto him. I've done it plenty of times.

Most Darius players don't do that in my elo. I get in and out quickly without acquiring many stacks, and if I get a couple I farm up with HIlten Style and heal up, then keep whittling him down.

So what if she uses her E when he pulls her? That's what I always do. Stun, aa, go back to farming. He doesn't get to do much there. Unless he's actually going on her to get a kill then her E is probably wasted but in poking and trades its not.

Maybe that player says so, but I've never had a problem. Even if a Darius is god tier and he is somehow beating me, I stay back and wait for the jungler to gank. Build defensive if I have too. But usually I kick his butt not the other way around.

You can't walk out of it if he walks forward while casting it. Did you forget that darius can move during Q cast? And his base move speed is 340 and irelia's is 345. In the span of .75 seconds, she doesn't have anywhere near enough move speed to walk out of Darius Q unless the darius is a total tard who stands still while Qing.

You can't dash near darius, unless if that darius is bad, or there is another enemy minion behind you that you can dash back to.
