Even God will die if he is ganked. And that is the problem with the lower elo... jungler rarely knows their job(or worst, their champion). Hence top laner will have to deal with Darius alone despite the desperate plea for help.

Infact Darius can be countered but he DOES NOT REQUIRE SKILL to snowball! There is difference between skill and having the minimum brain cells needed to stay alive. So a Darius player keeping himself from dieing doen't mean he is skilled. And just like any other Darius-hater says -> It's not the roflstomp ult that bugs us, it's the BROKEN passive. Once ulted I don't care about reset anymore. I mean Darius is making the enemy team a favor by denying kills to his teammates. I dare you however, to go toe-to-toe with a rofl insane magic damage dealing DoT(you know something's wrong when you play as Riven with full flat ad runes and at level three that DoT eats your shield(which have 2 points... screw you stun) and still have enough DPS to finnish you off UNDER your turret. Yes Riven is mobile and can quickly retreat wich is all the more reason why I can deal with his insane kit but that passive)

It's interesting to note that she did get the nerf axe twice in a row because she requires skill unlike some other champions who tasted the nerf axe only thanks to the ranting)

PS. I prefer to play Riven rather than Darius. After the nerf however, I kinda lost hope in Riot ever acquiring sanity in regards to balance.
