Darius Build Guide
Darius remains a top lane threat, posting a 49.94% winrate at a 6.94% pick rate on patch 16.13.1, with jungle noted as a secondary lane in current ranked data. Conqueror is his keystone, healing him through the stacking bleed his kit revolves around.
His skill order runs Q, then E, then W, prioritizing decimate for wave clear and hemorrhage stacking. Youmuu’s Ghostblade, Dead Man’s Plate, and Death’s Dance round out his core, a build focused on mobility, sustain, and closing out duels.
