Darius needs a buff or rework

Before the showcase of new cards, Darius was a semi viable champion pick. Having the strongest Power and overwhelm, and can level up mid combat to surprise lethal the Nexus was cool. But now, there are many champions that do damage to the Nexus in more interesting ways. Yes I do think his core should be simply strength. But that is all he has going for him. Plus it doesnt take much to kill Darius.

      Hard disagree.  Darius is still a viable closer for aggro decks.  Sure, all the new champions have clever new ways to win AFTER they level up, but don't be mistaken--each will also be very difficult to level up.  Darius has arguably the easiest level condition in the game, and an attacking 10/5 overwhelm on Turn 6 is extremely dangerous.  Yes, he is a little vanilla, but that's not a bad thing--the game needs vanilla cards for new players.

  • I have to disagree as well. Darius is a great closer for aggro decks. Many removal spells are exhausted over the course of the relentless assault brings. A turn 6 darius open attacking into turn 7 can be a little too much to handle. If you make it to Turn 7 and you don't have your opponent under 10 at that time, aggro has likely lost the game anyways and it's no fault of Darius being weaker.

  • Let's make Darius a 20/20 overwhelm, fearsome. Wich flips when enemy nexus it's on 15 hp or less.
