I like how almost your ENTIRE post is "counterpicks" rather than "counter play".

I love darius as much as the next guy, but at the end of the day you can only outplay darius only when you counterpick him not vice versa. and in case you are wondering I dont personaly consider "Stay away form minion gold and xp, wait for your jungle to gank, and hope he dosent get a double kill" a playstile.I should'nt have to buy and play a champ I dont nececerily like just to counter one dude.Thankfully I love playing garen as well so darius isint a real big deal. the fact of the matter is he is pretty much pre-nerf riven, but trade the sheild for a true dammage ulti, and a couple less hp regen (per 5) points.
