How to get 5 stacks faster on Darius?

For awhile i was losing games alot in ranked. I was always worried about getting out of bronze but at the same time improving. But honestly Im not going to care about my rank, as I want to sit down and just learn a champion and learn some tactics themselves. Now I know how darius works and his kit, but I have a problem. I hardly ever get 5 stacks. I'm still able to, yes, but it's really hard. Now I've only played 15 games and I've gotten 2 S ranks and 1 S-. So i feel like I'm atleast decent. But if I know a good combo to get 5 stacks I may be able to get more kills and be more beneficial for my team. About 10 games in I realized I should engage with my e and instead attack and when I can AA them anymore, pull them in. That usually pulls me in 3-4 stacks. But this is my strategy, will it work better for a 1 on 1 fight during laning?

Q AA and W asap after AA until I can't anymore E AA and Q

AA = auto attack Tl;dr give me darius combos

Just kill someone with ult in a teamfight. It's not about getting 5 stacks in lane.

First off, take stormraiders. Getting a big chunk on someone and suddenly running at mach 2 is a huge boon for darius, which will let you keep up with them to auto repeatedly. If you're against a ranged opponent, rush swifties, then cleaver. Against melee, you can go tabi or merc treads instead. It looks like you're already going deadmans second, which is good. You may also want to consider taking ghost over flash. Darius's main weakness is that he can be kited. By speccing heavily into movespeed, you negate this weakness, and make him truly fearsome.

The damage from your autos actually comes out before your axe even touches someone. You can use this to animation cancel with your W and Q to get faster stacks

Doesn't hydra reset auto? Triple auto reset it.
