Darius Jungle Tips and Tricks
- Hemorrhage is crucial for maximizing Darius's damage. Apply stacks by auto-attacking and using abilities on enemy champions as well as jungle camps.
- Darius has various combos to maximize damage and apply passive stacks:
- Basic Combo: Crippling Strike → Decimate → Apprehend → Auto-attacks until cooldowns reset.
- All-In Combo: Apprehend → Auto-attack → Crippling Strike → Auto-attack → Decimate → Noxian Guillotine (when the target has five stacks).
- Use Crippling Strike to reset your auto-attack timer, allowing for quick bursts of damage in trades and fights.
- Darius excels in 1v1 situations. Look for early invades against weaker enemy junglers to secure kills and gain an advantage.
- Look for gank opportunities in lanes where enemies are overextended or have low mobility because Darius' CC kit is rather limited.
Challenger Darius Jungle Clear
Pro Darius Jungle Path —full clear with a Red Buff start
- This particular Darius Jungle Route has a full clear that starts with the Red Buff and you'll kill it with Crippling Strike at level one. After killing the Red Buff and reaching level two go ahead and unlock the Decimate skill & clear the Krugs camp. Next up is the Raptor camp after which you get level three, either unlock Apprehend or upgrade Decimate. Now path towards the Blue Buff side of the jungle and clear the Wolves, Blue Buff and Gromp. On level four unlock Apprehend if you still haven't, or upgrade Decimate if you unlocked the former already and go grab the Rift Scuttler. After the Rift Scuttler kill go ahead and gank one of the lanes that seem to have the highest chance of resulting in a kill, or invade the enemy jungler instead as Darius is really good in 1v1 skirmishes.
- This Darius Jungle Clear focuses on doing a full clear of the jungle to be level four at the Rift Scuttler and be able to duel almost every enemy jungler in the current meta.
