“Just kite him”

After3perma··3 votes·1,808 views

Yeah, that shit is so old school that it doesn’t work anymore properly.

I like how every other Juggernaut champion is balanced except Darius. Darius always has to be the most frustrating, obnoxious champion in this game both pre juggernaut rework and post juggernaut rework.

You can kite an Illaoi. You can kite a Yorick. You can kite a Garen.

But what about Darius? You get pulled once by his E at a stupid 535 range and this fucking champion 100-0’s you while being unable to escape.

Garen, Illaoi and Yorick don’t have proper CC but Darius gets a pull multiple targets + 90% slow AA reset.

But good luck trying to kite a Darius running at your team with Flash + Ghost. Waste all your CC on one champion while another braindead bullshit Yi runs around like a fucking idiot killing your entire team.

Until Darius gets his E range nerfed to like 350 or 300 range and his passive damage and AD increase reduced, this champ will always be frustrating to face against.

Salty man. He's not even broken. Every champ can be frustrating to play against if you don't know or refuse to learn how.

Garen has a large speed boost/slow removal and a huge Tenacity steroid. Illaoi doesn’t have to fight for several seconds before being able to burst people down. Yorick actually has a much larger catch range than Darius.

While I agree that Darius is overtuned, his target access is not the problem.

item 3044 item 2053 Say otherwise.

As with every other champ that can build those items.

FemalesAreLesser3 votes

But he DOES build those items. for zz and tri force.

and his Ranged slow, and Cage get to some pretty low af cooldowns. And without a dash or anything, you can be shit out of luck.

With darius, if he misses just his pull (V small range) then he's fucked and its like a 9 second time frame for him to get abused.

Yorick has range, and his maiden also is ranged.

I'm sorry to post this one week later but I can't leave you in your ignorance. Yorick doesn't build zz'rot it sucks.

That's mean :'(

You are Correct, it is, and i am sorry for saying it.

I have a Few Yorick players in my group of people whom i play with (it sucks cause i play bruisers and Adc's and love getting one shot by a 3-4.5k hp Triforce only dmg item champion as yorick)

and they typically build it and focus mostly on winning the game through the one lane. sorta like the Int sion thing going around now. but on yorick, and more so unkillable, kills all, pushes all. rather then ints and pushes. but yeah. i just see it alot on yoricks.

Allkh1 votes

The thing is that yorick has already so much pushing power that it's kind of a waste to buy a zz'rot instead of something more interesting. People build it a lot on Yorick but ask any high elo Yorick player he'll tell you that it isn't great.

FemalesAreLesser1 votes

Question for counter point, what do you consider high elo, cause i have and play with friends from anywhere to the lowest of the lows to high diamond and master, and the particular yorick players i mentioned we're around high plat and low diamond. but like the phrase high elo is Subjective, or dependent on what ones personal elo is, ie; bronze is to silver/gold, as plat is to diamond/master tier.

Allkh1 votes

High diamond, master and challenger.

FemalesAreLesser1 votes

Fair response :P so i guess my answer still applies, just not as strongly if you think high elo is high diamond and up

Easier to kite darius than either garen or yorick. He's just sticker than those two, so if you're not bad and don't get pulled, you can just destroy him.

Just kite Darius. Go.

If he uses his e then use your cc on him right when e uses e. He won’t be able to do much to you and depending on what kind of cc you used, you can get out before he uses w on you. The darius will most likely chain their e and w together, so then you can CC him and run away easily.

Kiting is harder than it used to be, so many items and abilities add movement speed, having a slow as Ashe but Garen presses q and then runs at me, hard to play around

tbh Urgot is way harder to kite and even more frustrating to play against

Darius is easier to kite than Garen LOL He might have his deadmans plate and speed after killing a minion from his cleaver, but thats it. any slow and he cant reach you, ever
