Does a heal on Darius Q really make sense?

Senator Sack·Sep 22, 2015·3 votes·1,207 views

I like how Riot gave juggernauts a new rework to add some variety to the tanky playstyle, but I don't think that Darius Q should heal. I base this on his lore and kit. The only way a heal off an ability for Darius makes sense is if he kills someone with his ult he gets heal for 5-10% of total HP.

If you keep Darius' rework but remove the heal from his Q, he's still a viable pick due to his passive damage increase and the slow he now gets from his W.

Anyone else feel the same way?

the long sword is the shiv and the pick axe is the bow.

A lot of things don't make sense. By all accounts Yasuo shouldn't be able to make tornadoes with a type of sword technique.

No it doesn't make sense at all. They just want to make every reworked champion super op

His Q heal makes no sense.

In any way.

I think he needs some form of survivability bonus. Tying a heal into his Q was a good way to give him that bonus conditionally (allowing enemy players to avoid it) . I still think it is too strong, but something is needed.

all they need to do is make him have a flat of 10hp per level and 5% missing hp for his heal

He has shit AA speed (intentionally), melee W with high CD, E's a pull, and R is used only to execute.

He needs sustain because he got pushed into being passive reliant and needs to elongate the fights to apply passive stacks, where else would you place the sustain if not Q?

also the R heal you're proposing is ridiculously laughable, 5-10% total health on a skill you use to execute someone would be utterly useless

That isn't to say that he doesn't need work, but I'd say the thing to tweak is the reliability of the blade hit (because only hitting with the blade heals him)

Yes it does make sense, pre rework he has no mobility and had trouble reaching his intended target (and he still does because that's a weakness)

So what does Riot do? well he can't have mobility because's that'd be the second coming of Irelia, so we just give him a heal so that way he can survive fights while he looks for an opportunity to engage on his intended target. See? it wasn't so hard to figure out.
