Should Darius get nerfed when/if 10 bans were to happen to appease the noobs?

I really don't like the Idea of 10 bans and me not being able to play my favorite champ all games anymore

DISCLAIMER: I don't want Darius nerfed I think he's perfectly balanced atm, I'm just a worried Darius main that's all.

Given the amount of champions in the game today more bans had been something we've needed for a long time. And noobs or not, Darius is frustrating to play against and sometimes people don't want to deal with that. It's like the Blitzcrank Paradigm: If You Don't Ban Blitzcrank, He Will Be There.

Even though Blitz and Darius aren't OP per se, they're not fun to be against and that's what bans are for. If he gets nerfed, he gets nerfed. But if not, his ban rate might go up a bit. Every champion goes through a weird ban phase and Darius is no different. He won't get banned every time and with Pick Intent your team won't ban him like 99% of the time. I think you and all the other Darius mains are safe for now.

Darius draws bans not because he's too terribly OP, but because he invalidates a nice list of Champions from being picked top lane. If they want to play those champions, they pretty much have to ban the DarDar or start off from a disadvantage. I know which one I'd choose.

He doesn't need nerfs, but he'd probably be perma pick/ban then in low ELO otherwise without them.

I agree with you I main darius also and the only reason hes getting banned is because people dont know how to counter him whitch is pretty easyVayne Quinn Gnar Teemo but no they dont even wanna try it thats the thing I mean look at the EUNE darius has allmost 15% ban rate there on EUW and NA its under 5% lol and yea I am againt 10 bans per game because i know people will ban him

Darius was still pulling bans when he was at his worst. I don't think nerfing him to appease lower ELOs would change that too much, given they have a problem with his design and not his state of balance

darius is shit. every juggeranut in the game. is pure shit. your options in useful pick.

play an ad carry.

play a mage

play an assassin that has no counterplay. point and click.

play a heavy engage tank like malphite.
