Why does Darius's grab grant vision?

"Because it's helpful for his team."

Yah, I get that. . .

I mean: it makes sense for Lux to gain vision on her orb, because it's literally an orb of light. Or for an ignited target to be revealed, because they're on fire, and that's bright.

"An axe," shouldn't have intrinsic vision.

It feels thematic for Darius to make a pull into the darkness. But he doesn't have some kind of mystical eyeball axe. :|

I'm not saying champions gaining visions is bad, but Riot should make a big patch giving vision features to all the champions they want to have it, rather than loading vision onto one champion every several months.

Doesn't blitz's grab grant vision when he does a pull? Darius has no time to react to who he pulled and you may have to play differently as a result. It is kind of random but it does make sense.

There could be justification in that, as a skilled axe user, Darius can "feel" if his axe grabs something. However, I don't think that "because he had low reaction time" should be the reason for changing things. If you wanted a champion where you have a lot of reaction time, then play Garen or something. Damage and defence stats should not be the only features of champions.
