I noticed that they changed the difficulty in the champ info in the new client from Renekton having a higher difficulty to a lower difficulty than Darius. Darius and Renekton are champions I often play and I'd like to know who you think is more difficult to play and why. Personally, I think Renekton is slightly harder to play, because of the tiamat resets and stuff, but I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Darius is super easy and renekton isn't that hard either but renekton takes more to learn i'd say

They're both braindead easy.

Renekton is harder because you have to keep track of fury to trade in an even lane. He's just about as braindead as Darius if you have a lead.

Darius you just afk farm spam Q to either CS when behind, or poke when ahead. Use E when they waste an ability and trade hard.

To answer your question Renekton is harder to play, but only slightly. Darius is just pull them in, use all your abilities, and win.

Renekton is harder. defintely a lot harder. genrally because darius is one of the easier champions. take ignite and flash. and win lane. ezpz. he also doesn't have to build as much damage as renekton to do damage and hes tankier.

renekton isn't hard but comparatively a lot harder.

Darius is easy mode lol. Renekton at least you gotta juggle your rage.

Renekton is a lot harder than you think. Rage juggling as well as doing the right combinations of abilities to maximize damage isn't easy - especially if you ran the fervor mastery and went full AD. Now because fervor's trash you're running the tank build with CotC and no longer using item 3074, you're using item 3748, and item 3142 is out of the question because lethality is crap.

Darius is MUCH easier because all you have to do is land 5 Q/W/Auto combinations of sorts on them, as long as you aren't tanking a wave, and can land your Q in the right range, really doesn't take much effort. Don't FREE true damage with your ult that resets on kills for 17 seconds before going to CD until level 16, if you can hit them 5 times with your Q blade, W, or auto attacks.

To put it in perspective:

Old Renekton - item 3071 item 3142 item 3074 - tank

Old Darius - item 3071 - Tank

New Renekton (I say new because of keystone changes) - item 3071 item 3748 item 3812 - tank

New Darius - item 3071 - tank

See my point? Darius is easy, but easily countered, if you can kite. Renekton, has more ways to win lane, but it ain't a free lane if it's a melee vs melee match which darius wins pretty much all but Fiora Riven and Pantheon

I agree...im a renekton main. I haven't played in a while but I have around 600,000 mastery on him. Renektons kind of like riven with all the auto cancels and little tricks there are too mastering him. But even more difficult because of fury management.. He's like a riven combined with rumble heat. Hes easy to play but hard to master.

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the hardest renektons at a 6 or 7 Rivens a 5 Darius a 3 and Zeds a 10
