When will Riot's love affair with Darius end?

Darius.

How many buffs does this champion need (see 5.17 patch notes)? He has gone beyond being merely broken -- he is now LUDICROUSLY BROKE'D.

I really, Really, REALLY, want to punch the guy who thought the buffing Darius this patch was the right call -- RIGHT IN THE KISSER!

So Riot, in conclusion, please put the crack pipe down, step away from Darius' (axe) shaft, and consider delivering on your promise of reworks for other champions who really NEED some love (i.e., Taric).

Thank You, and may your day be Darius-Free!

Just putting it out there, the buff he got does very little, it makes his last hitting SLIGHTLY easier (since he can last hit with W more often now) but thats about it.

All he really needs, is a nerf to his Q (personally I'd do 1 of 2 things) then he'll be in a fine spot again.

1.) Remove the heal and slightly raise the damage (this is probably what i'd do, if only because it makes it easier to gank Darius again; which was one of the main weaknesses he's always had due to being immobile)

2.) Keep the heal and lower the damage (higher than 5.15 Darius; lower than 5.16); E.g: 40 ~ 160 ---> 30 ~ 130

Is the 5.17 change actually meaningful? It seems very minor.
