Darius: Quality of life change?

Hear me out first.

With the current meta and top lane being incredibly volatile, bruisers like Darius don't do too well at all - they can't bully the ranged top laners and adcs murder him in a heartbeat late. Darius isn't really a 'tank' either, he survives by landing Qs often and successfully.

Now here is the problem, with the existence of Dark Harvest (extra dmg on 50% HP targets) and coup de grace (8% more on 40% or lower) any targets that tend to fall below that threshold are dead in under a second - unless incredibly fed. I have found it to be so common now that as Darius I am dying mid Q like 2/3 times A GAME where that split second would have made me live or secured a kill for me.

What I propose is Riot give him a QoL buff and change the Q wind up to 0.5s from 0.75 - that's all. It won't change anything for the bad Darius' that can't hit Q.

EDIT: A good example of this was when they changed Urgot Q down to 0.5 from 0.75 because it was affecting his play in a significant way.

Darius is in a good spot right now I don't think bluffing him would be right.

That's not a QoL, that's a straight-up buff. And it removes a lot of chance people have to get out of it.
