You're about to ruin a notorious early-mid game champion, and it's not like you made his late any better...

While you're at it totally fucking up jayce and riven matchups, can you at the very least nerf jayce so he isn't batshit retarded (then I can just focus on banning riven every game).

So people seem to be under some impression that it is Darius' synergy with CoC that is getting him nerfed.

It's not. It's how powerful he is with flash and ghost. Most Darius players don't actually take ghost (because they're stupid), and he is still performing very well.

He will only perform better once ghost overtakes teleport as a summoner spell.

ghost is ridiculous on its own; the PBE nerfs are far too gentle, i hardly even notice the 2 second ramp up time.

All I'm hearing is that it's everything besides darius...

He's a monster in team fights too. He'll be fine.

When you complain about a champ that has a pretty much 50+ winrate throughout the whole game to a champ that has a high win rate early that drops to sub 48% after 30+ minutes to even a 46% 40 minutes your post loses value. Darius was abusing courage which made him tankier early so he could easily get off his stacks. So they nerfed it cuz obviously it was too strong.

Darius players generally take Fervor or Stormraider's tho if they aren't taking Grasp.

Ghost+Flash.

Darius being strong has pretty much nothing to do with CoC. Take a look at other regions.

cotc is picked most and wins more

other keystones will pick up after the new nerfs, probably

Grasp is actually still the most common keystone on Darius, strangely enough. Old habits die hard I guess.

Personally I've moved to the flash/ghost/stormraiders camp and I've found it to be pretty fantastic. Especially vs squishy tops like Teemo.

Yeah playing an overpowered champion feels pretty fantastic. Like early season six Mundo? That shit was fun as hell, just being unkillable and destroying everyone. Hell yeah.

They dont take fervor or storm raiders they've been abusing the CoC with flash and ghost to make them tankier while being able to get more dmg off.

In Korea they don't even use CoC very often lol.

ßurst1 votes

The korean meta is also very different from the west. They play for early game. Thats why things like Riven with thunderlords are still around in korea while out west we mostly only use fervor
