okay, so I got darius, and I've gotten an overall decent score with him. However, all of my games, I always had a lot of trouble with playing him. Although I've never fed immensely, or completely croaked, I've definitely had problems, though.

One is, I've never really known how to set up masteries, runes, or build him. I've always just gotten 18/0/12, gotten normal bruiser runes, and focused on getting half tank, half damage items like black cleaver, titanic, etc., then going for tank items. I've also tried switching up in some of the other games I had with him, like getting a ravenous, or going for tank items first, etc.

Two, I find getting the 5 stacks for noxian might harder than it seems. I always get kited, cc'ed, or just plain sustain way too much damage in my attempts to get 5 stacks.

three, Udyr. 3 games in a row, I've faced an udyr at some point, and all 3 games, even when we were at the same level and both had pretty powerful items, he both out damaged and out tanked me. Im not sure if its just because its udyr, or if there's sumthing im missing.

four, hitting q. Im not sure if im blind, but I always see the edge of q blade (based on radius indicator during its delay) hit the top laner im against, yet it never registers as hitting him.

some advice is appreciated.
