it isn't just the lack of skillshots that define a champion's difficulty. with that logic Hecarim should also be Rank 1 difficulty because he lacks skillshots too.

you are forgetting to factor the other champion's mechanics as well\

Darius' Q has a delay and you can move during the windup, giving you and your enemy time to reposition. it isn't like Garen's E where all you need to do is to stay close to your enemies, Darius' Q requires repositioning skills as you have to keep your axe near the enemy but not too near that you strike them with the handle instead and not heal.

Darius' W is an auto reset. but what makes it different from others is that if you kill someone with it, you get some mana back and refund some cooldown. it can be used to farm minions or be a gap closer.

what do you mean Darius isn't reliant with his E to make plays? that's like saying Blitzcrank doesn't need his hook to make plays. Darius is a juggernaut. meaning he lacks mobility but in return decently deals and recieves damage. he needs his hook so the enemy cannot escape, and you aren't factoring that it has a cast time, so during that time enemy can burn their flash or mobility spells

and his R needs to kill to reset. and as you need to build passive stacks to maximize damage, you have to stay close, auto attack, or hit those Qs and Es

why are you making it that skillshots define a champion's difficulty? heck, Caitlyn is Rank 1 on difficulty but she has 2 skillshot abilities. you are forgetting to factor mechanics.
