^ This.

Every single of his damaging spells is or can be (ult) cast below 50 mana and often with ridiculously low CD even without CDR. For some champs, 50 mana is the cheapest they'd ever get and Darius would still laugh at them...

45 and 30 mana? Mana refund ... that's why it doesn't even matter that his ult costs mana until lvl16. Why doesn't Rito completely remove mana from him? Giving him energy costs instead of mana would actually be a nerf to him compared to what he currently has.

That was my QQ on him. I've always considered him strong because of his low mana costs on his damaging spells. He already wins his lane by sustain (low mana consumption, high damage output). I've never expect any further buffs.

Could someone please explain to me why he needed any?
