I have never once beat a darius in lane (thats not bronze). I don't understand how to beat him. I feel like I have to play perfect to have a chance at beating him in trades, many times I solokill him once or twice, but I make one mistake and he kills me and starts to snowball. And when he kills me first, all you can do is sit under tower, and try to dodge every single ability, or he will dive extremely easily. Its never fun to play against him. I need help.
Warlord Scrap1 votesWho do you play. Rumbles decent against him imo. Espically since he just got way overbuffed.
ISeeDumbPeople1 votesYou have to play something off meta usually. Think like teemo, wukong, stuff that can poke him and get away. Unfortunately if you end up melee vs him you basically have to wait for a gank, and yeah he will just snowball if you don't get help and he free farms too. I recommend a 
it can help a lot so he doesn't just kill whoever helps you while healing too much. His weakness is his mobility though, easily kited and killed by teams, as long as they don't let him heal. But yeah overall not a fun matchup, seems like you just end up waiting for help then he tps and kills three people and that's it lol. Rough to deal with all around, he is a bit too safe and too high dmg early.
MrFawknSunshine1 votesdarius is a lane bully who exceeds by extended trades due to passive and ult execute. he is immobile use this to your advantage. if you are going melee into him its harder. he is a juggernaut designed to be slow, have little to no cc/engage but will kill you if he gets ahold of you. play safe early, dodge bait his Q its main trade tool, sustain and farming tool. he also uses it to start most all in/combos. so kite, keep distance, dont go for extended trades, out sustain. if you get out of laning phase with out dying and equal in cs and have a scaling champ or a better team fight champ he gets out classed unless fed. i alot of the times start with dorans shield for sustain or boots to keep away from him. he does alot of true damage/bleed so building hp is effective vs him some what more so then start armor cuz of has passive on E that gives him armor pen.
as far as the match up i play the most vs darius is maokai but im a one trick and typically maokai is suppose to hard lose the lane vs him but i rarely do cuz of things i described plus as maokai i dont have to win lane per say to be effective in mid game/ team fights

Still he got nice buffs but sure that could hard nerfed him but illaoi and teemo are solid counter to daruis.
