So I was a aw Wukong vs Darius top. A hard counter yes but every lane can be won if you have more skill right? Wrong. I was level 7 he was level 6 both near full health. Neither of us had kills or assists. He misses his q so I go in to activate thunderlords. He starts to get a good amount of stacks on me so he prepares to ult, I decoy causing him to use his ult on my decoy. I go back in for a another combo and I ult and ignite. He qs and basic attacks me to death. Skill based game? I think not.

This game is a skill based game because you have to know the match up. Darius misses Q, then you E in proc thunderlords and run back while he does no damage. Continue until he is low enough to all in with your ult.

You obviously do not know the match up at all. Being knowledgeable in different kinds of match ups is extremely important. And you displayed a gross lack of knowledge of the wukong vs darius match up.

Your skill level wasn't equal. That Darius appears to be a better player than you in general. He also seems to have outfarmed in that specific game by quite a significant amount....almost 50 creeps by the time your team surrendered at 23 minutes.

Your mistake was failing to appreciate how much damage you would dish out versus how much he would deal to you. You shouldn't have re-initiated. Experience should hopefully help with that. :)

Darius has the ability to hard number check, Wukong has the outplay/mobility. You played the front half right, but then went back in and played his game. Don't sit and trade autos with Darius.

On the other side, I think it's awesome you're playing Wu. Don't let this get to you too much.

Well, NOBODY can beat a 5 stack Darius that early in an auto attack duel (after you used ult and E and Q etc and he misses his abilities) . At that point, Darius can W someone for half their health, and if he has crit sayonara you're fucking dead instantly

Yes any counter can be beaten by skill, but only if you outskill the player. If both players are at equal skill level, more often then not, the counter pick is going to win

dude what did you expect, darius is balanced because he has no mobility which he trades for extremely strong melee dueling and burst.

Super easy way to faceroll Darius:

Pick Olaf. Start Dorans Blade.

Build LS AD items to outsustain him Build health items like DMP. Up e true damage early. Any armor he builds against you is powerless.

Poke and all in when he is low.

Stay too close for too long, you'll bleed.

Bewate lack of mana pots; Olafs q eats mana.

Post 6, if thou art pulled by Darius, just ult, press w, bring the thunder and shove an axe up his ass till he dies.

Darius defeated easily xD

You let a Darius get 5 stacks on you, then sat in auto range.

Bad plays OP.

Darius has one of the highest sustained damage in the game when he has 5 stacks up. You fought him with 5 stacks. It doesn't matter what he misses. You were outplayed due to your lack of knowledge.
