What's the counter play to your top lane Darius dying 1v1 to Fiora at level 1

Considering that if you now try to gank her, she's just going to 1v2 both of you with her advantage

Can we stop allowing one retard to completely fuck over the entire game before the 5 minute mark? This isn't healthy game play.

One kill isn't nearly enough to snowball out of control... especially at lvl 1. You can easily stop the bleeding.

they get a 400 gold lead, assuming it's first blood. That far from game over. If your team gets first tower, then you're gucci. That said, darius is stupid at level 1, he shouldn't be losing to fiora.

Yeah, your top laner gets farmed out until your jgler decides to stop being a pansy and help 'em out. Especially if they're holding on for dear life. It's funny, because those 2 normally push lanes and jglers rarely do anything about it. Especially in low Elo. High Elo, it's complete understandable to tread waters since counter ganking happens a lot there.

come gank me when i'm 400gold ahead probably 800 by the time you come since i'll starve your laner and keep him 50% hp next to his tower and give me a doublekill with dbuffs so i can get fb tower.;p Darius and Rene are designed to excel in 1v2s 1v3s since the more ppl they hit the more thye heal etc etc.

Except it is. Fiora will reach level 6 first and kill him again, and any attempts to gank that get counter-ganked pre-6 will result in a double kill. If you wait until after 6, Fiora can potentially 1v2 with her advantage.

He's going to die lvl 1, be dead for 10seconds and then just TP back to lane before fiora hits 2. All he literally has to do is play it safe till then and wait for assistance. Which in, you can then go to help him out as 2v2ing with a Darius is much, much better than 2v2ing with a Fiora. He'll most likely get 5 stacks and be a forced to be reckon with.

There's a reason he's dominating top lane right now. That isn't to say he might not have a brain to do so... but he should be fine, especially if he plays defensively. Tbh, you can really only abuse a Darius that screws up on his own. Playing against a passive Darius is some times worse than an offensive one.

I wish my top lane would only die 1v1 a single time.

Instead I've been seeing stuff like 15 death Rivens, 10 death GPs, etc.
