Darius
Champions that beat Darius
- Ambessatop
Apprehend (E) pull is a long telegraph and Darius has no dash. Drakehound's Step (P) dashes weave around Decimate (Q) outer ring, Repudiation (W) braces the pull, and Public Execution (R) suppression bypasses Noxian Guillotine (R) reset chain.
- Camilletop
Hookshot (E) + The Hextech Ultimatum (R) lock Darius in melee range without Apprehend (E) escape. Precision Protocol (Q2) true damage cuts through Hemorrhage (P) stacks while Tactical Sweep (W) slow kites Decimate (Q) outer edge.
- Cho'Gathtop
Rupture (Q) knockup interrupts Apprehend (E) pull animation, and Feral Scream (W) silence blocks Decimate (Q) follow-up. Carnivore (P) sustain matches Hemorrhage (P) bleed and Feast (R) executes him at the 30% HP threshold.
- Dr Mundotop
Infected Bonesaw (Q) chip from 975 range avoids Hemorrhage (P) stacking range entirely. Goes Where He Pleases (P) eats Apprehend (E) pull for free, and Maximum Dosage (R) regen outsustains the Noxian Guillotine (R) 5-stack execute window.
- Fioratop
Riposte (W) parries Apprehend (E) pull and stuns Darius mid-Decimate (Q) windup. With the engage wasted, Fiora walks around for Vitals from Duelist's Dance (P), and Noxian Guillotine (R) cannot execute through Grand Challenge (R) heal.
- Gnartop
Mini Boomerang Throw (Q) kites outside Apprehend (E) pull range and chip-stacks Rage Gene (P). Hop (E) over minions dodges Decimate (Q) outer ring; once Mega comes online, GNAR! (R) wall stun chains into Wallop (W) before Noxian Guillotine (R) execute can fire.
- Gragastop
Darius walks up to last-hit and eats Barrel Roll (Q) poke trade-by-trade; Drunken Rage (W) damage reduction soaks the Decimate (Q) outer ring burst and Apprehend (E) pull range falls short of Gragas Body Slam (E) stun-out distance.
- Gwentop
Snip Snip! (Q) applies percent-max-HP true damage that ignores armor; sustained 1v1 inside Hallowed Mist (W) shreds the Hemorrhage (P) HP pool. Decimate (Q) outer ring is sidestepped by Skip 'n Slash (E) dash, and Apprehend (E) pull range falls short of mist boundary.
- Illaoitop
Apprehend (E) pull range is shorter than Harsh Lesson (W) leap, so Darius commits inside Tentacle radius. Decimate (Q) outer ring is sidestepped by Test of Spirit (E) pulling him into the Tentacle swarm before Noxian Guillotine (R) execute can fire.
- K'Santetop
Apprehend (E) pull is interrupted by Path Maker (W) charged stun, and Decimate (Q) outer ring is dodged with Footwork (E) movement. Ntofo Strikes (Q) detonation eats through Hemorrhage (P) bleed stacks,
- Kaynjungle
Darius has no escape outside Apprehend (E) pull — Rhaast's Reaping Slash (Q) max-HP percent damage shreds Hemorrhage (P) stacked HP, and Umbral Trespass (R) post-form bypasses Noxian Guillotine (R) execute. Kayn fills red orbs every Darius skirmish.
- Kennentop
Apprehend (E) pull is dodged by Lightning Rush (E) dash, and Decimate (Q) outer ring is sidestepped by Kennen's mobility. Mark of the Storm (P) stun interrupts Noxian Guillotine (R) execute mid-windup, and Hemorrhage (P) bleed cannot stack on a kiting Kennen.
- Kledtop
Bear Trap on a Rope (Q) has 800 range, outside Apprehend (E) pull at 555 — Kled yanks Darius before he commits. Violent Tendencies (W) 4-attack window plus Jousting (E) recast walks out of Decimate (Q) outer ring, and Noxian Guillotine (R) execute is dodged with E2 reposition.
- Mordekaisertop
Mordekaiser thrives in extended trades — Indestructible (W) shield stores the damage Decimate (Q) and Hemorrhage (P) bleed pump into him and Darkness Rise (P) aura ticks during the whole fight.
- Ornntop
Darius has no dash — Volcanic Rupture pillar plus Searing Charge knock-up locks him into Brittle, and Bellows Breath stun follow-up shuts down Apprehend pull retaliation.
- Quinntop
Darius has no dash — Blinding Assault denies the autos that stack Hemorrhage bleed for his win condition, and Vault leaves Apprehend pull range before he engages. Decimate sweet-spot heal cannot proc through the blind,
- Riventop
Decimate (Q) outer ring is his only sustain and Apprehend (E) is a skill-shot pull on a long cooldown. Ki Burst (W) stuns at melee to cut the Q windup, and a sideways Valor (E) dodges the pull cone — denying both the heal and the Hemorrhage stack chain.
- Rumbletop
Decimate (Q) and Apprehend (E) are short and skill-shot, and Darius has zero mobility outside flash. Electro Harpoon (E) double-slow keeps him outside the outer-ring sweet spot, and a well-placed The Equalizer (R) line shuts down Noxian Guillotine (R) walk-up.
- Setttop
Decimate (Q) outer ring is his sustain and Apprehend (E) is a skill-shot pull on a long cooldown. Sett out-trades by tanking the Q outer ring into Pit Grit then unloading Haymaker (W) true damage on the centre, and Facebreaker (E) stun cancels Noxian Guillotine (R) windup.
- Singedtop
Apprehend (E) is a directional pull and Decimate (Q) outer ring needs Singed standing inside its donut. Mega Adhesive (W) grounds him during Apprehend follow-up, and Fling (E) reverses Noxian Guillotine (R) execute by repositioning Darius outside his own Hemorrhage range.
- Teemotop
Darius's Hemorrhage passive bleed needs auto-attacks to stack to 5, and Crippling Strike W empowered auto is auto-based. Blinding Dart Q kills the stack chain, Apprehend E pull only reaches melee range Move Quick W kites past,
- Tryndameretop
Darius's Noxian Guillotine R execute fails through Undying Rage's 1-HP floor on a Hemorrhage passive bleed-stacked target. Decimate Q sweet-spot cannot keep up with Bloodlust Q heal-crit chain, Apprehend E pull reaches melee range Spinning Slash E dashes out of,
- Vladimirtop
Vladimir Transfusion (Q) hits from 600 range outside Darius Apprehend (E) pull reach, so the trade favors range. Sanguine Pool (W) untargetable dodges Noxian Guillotine (R) mark execute and the Hemorrhage passive five-stack burst cannot proc during the pool window.
- Wukongtop
Cyclone (R) knockup interrupts Darius mid-Decimate (Q) windup, and Warrior Trickster (W) decoy baits Apprehend (E) onto nothing. Nimbus Strike (E) kites between Hemorrhage (P) ticks, denying the 5-stack enrage window.
- Yonetop
Apprehend E pull is short-range and Soul Unbound E dashes out of the outer-edge bonus damage cone of Decimate Q before the slow connects. Hemorrhage stacks need sustained autos to scale, but Spirit Cleave W shield resets the trade health pool fast.
- Yoricktop
Dark Procession W cages Darius and Mourning Mist E marks him for the ghoul swarm plus the Maiden. Apprehend E pull is short-range so the cage walls block the disengage line, and Hemorrhage stacks bleed Darius slower than Mist Walkers tear through his HP bar.
Champions Darius beats
- Garentop
Apprehend (E) pull bypasses Decisive Strike (Q) silence by yanking Garen out of position, and Noxian Guillotine (R) wins the execute race against Demacian Justice (R) on Hemorrhage (P) stacks. Crippling Strike (W) slow keeps Garen in melee range.
- Heimerdingertop
Apprehend (E) pull bypasses turret defense range by yanking Heimer out of the nest, and Noxian Guillotine (R) executes him through Hemorrhage (P) bleed stacks. Decimate (Q) outer ring clears turret clusters during the trade window.
- Kayletop
Darius kills Kayle before her level-6 power spike — Decimate (Q) outer ring plus Apprehend (E) pull plus Hemorrhage (P) bleed chunks 70%+ HP in a 4-second all-in. Noxian Guillotine (R) execute finishes Kayle through Zhonya's Hourglass once stacks ramp.
- Naafirimid
Naafiri must close for Darkin Daggers (Q) bleeds and Hounds' Pursuit (R) dash, eating Decimate (Q) outer-blade stacks each commit. Apprehend (E) cancels The Call of the Pack (W) speed boost, and Noxian Guillotine (R) executes before pack heal pays off.
- Nasustop
Nasus first 6 levels are passive — Apprehend (E) pull + Crippling Strike (W) shove him off the wave repeatedly, killing him before Siphoning Strike (Q) stacks come online. Wither (W) slow cannot stop Decimate (Q) outer-blade trades.
- Sylasmid
Sylas walks into Decimate (Q) outer-blade range to land Chain Lash (Q) and Petricite Burst (P) chains, eating Hemorrhage (P) stacks each pass. Apprehend (E) cancels the Abscond / Abduct (E) return dash, and Noxian Guillotine (R) outscales Kingslayer (W) heal.
- Volibeartop
Darius wins extended trades because every auto and Decimate (Q) applies Hemorrhage (P) stacks. Thundering Smash (Q) stun gets interrupted by Apprehend (E) pull, and Noxian Guillotine (R) executes in the 5-stack window before Stormbringer (R) jump triggers.
- Yasuomid
Yasuo walks into Decimate (Q) edge range to deal damage. Wind Wall (W) blocks projectiles but not melee swings, so a clean Q outer-blade applies Hemorrhage (P) stacks. Last Breath (R) commits him into Noxian Guillotine (R) execute range.
