I hope there would be a theme of that and include tristana. Lol

**Dantrag** · 2012-06-14 09:03

Fuuu want that skin so bad.

**Aeowin** · 2012-06-15 02:32

They make an evolving skin, but don't fix the glitch that makes the picture of a champion freeze on your client loool

Because everyone on Riot does the same thing, there is no such thing as a "skin team" >_> <_<

the ez skin is awesome because he's a terrible champion if not played well and this means so many retards will start playing him. I am excite. May have to perma leona bot over the next few weeks to take advantage

**Dantrag** · 2012-06-15 14:35

I love EZ and generally do really well with him. /excite.

**altwight** · 2012-06-15 18:20

so why is darius in the game? just came back from 4month break and he seems like the most broken champion i've ever encountered.

**chazzyphizzle** · 2012-06-15 21:54

that's because you are bad

**Qeomash** · 2012-06-15 23:32

I do think that Darius is ridiculous. He might not be OP in every sense of the word, I just think he snowballs TOO easily. A true damage Garen ulti that is potentially spammable that can do nearly as much damage as Cho'gath's consume? Yeaaaaah...

Easily countered by someone ranged top? Yes. Easiliy countered if he gets slightly ahead on kills? Not as much.

Name a top-lane champion for whom this statement would be true. Yes, Darius is going to be tough to deal with if he gets a little fed, but if he doesn't he's dead-weight. He's all melee with garbage CC.

That being said, I don't like true damage in general and I wish they hadn't added more of it into the game. Also I think having his passive scale with AD and deal magic instead of physical damage was a poor design choice, but I wouldn't mind it if he didn't also have the true damage ultimate.

**Dantrag** · 2012-06-16 07:02

Poop all over him with Wu Kong or Pantheon.

**D44kpunk** · 2012-06-16 09:08

the only complaint i can really see people having about darius is he snow balls team fights, nothing else really. but several champions can do this and easily so. i.e master yi, katarina, vayne. there's probably a ton more but i cant think of them, that being said, a ton of champions counter darius. volibear is actually a good counter to him too

edit: and actually his ult shouldn't be only used for kill shots and that's why people lose a lot of games with him in ranked, at least that's what I've noticed.

**lilfoo** · 2012-06-16 14:21

I personally love jungling with him. He is ridiculously fast clear speed, not blue dependent after the first, and low gold cost to be good/effective (pilo > boots > heart > merc > phage > hex > mallet > maw = done). His only problem is ganks from the jungle if the lane dose not have hard cc.

Yes, but I'd argue that Yi, Kat and Vayne are all much easier to shut down during a team fight (hi stun), and Darius is not. I'd say that the problem with Darius is he snowballs in team fights too easily. Like I said--he basically has Cho'gath and Garen's ultimate in one that works like Master Yi's ultimate.

**chazzyphizzle** · 2012-06-16 15:54

once he's in a team fight he's all in, he is extremely vulnerable to being kited

**Sup3rB4d** · 2012-06-16 17:05

nautilus is the most OP champion I have ever played.

10-1 with him so far. (lolnormal, but still)

The easiest way to counter Naut, imo, is a fast jungler and aggressive warding. If you are able to counter gank him a couple times while farming half decently he falls behind fast. Naut simply cannot 2v2 people as he has terrible damage. But if he gets off a few good ganks it is pretty much GG as he can towerdive and lock people down so easily once he is ahead.

This. He gets kited easily. And has no type escape. Get a team that can snare/stun and you shut him down easily
