@Riot Statikk Why take away Darius's attack speed slow? And why nerf his attack speed growth?

New Darius is centered around Bloodrage but his abysmal attack speed makes it really difficult to apply 5 stacks in lane. In particular aganist champions that have low CD dashes/escapes It's gonna be tougher than ever to get 5 stacks to use his ult to full effect

I understand that now his Apprehend - E slows for 1 second and hence his W slow is 1 second, but the attack speed slow wasn't compensated, his attack speed slow allowed him to trade effectively aganist auto-attack reliant champions

Finally, last concern in regards to his passive. Darius is THE presence of the top-lane, the go-to bully when you needed to shut down top-lane hyper-carries

And the reason Darius could do that was not only his high physical damage, but his magic damage on his bleed, which meant that starting and 5 health potions to lane wasn't as effective since darius could apply his bleed stacks and win trades. Now, he loses that very important edge in lane for an easier way to apply 5 stacks of black cleaver? Harsh nerf to laning. But why nerf the damage then?

Really hope you can respond to this

1. Attack speed lowered makes it very difficult to get 5 stacks ( and all his damage is centered around 5 stacks)
2. Attack speed slow on W not compensated
3. Passive nerfed by changed to physical ( lane nerf) then nerfed by decreasing damage
