According to westrice stream:

"Don't listen to the rumors. Elementz and I are trying out a lane swap"

So much for the speculation.

Also free week Darius. Dude's gonna get banned every draft normal. What beats him btw? Swain, Kennen, etc. seem to do fine against him, but it's kinda sharp with the range differential being low. Also it seems that even champs like Fiora, Panth, Wukong have trouble trading against him, so I guess he's kind of a "worse" Olaf for melee champs?


TBH I just either ban him or pick nunu. Nunu crushes him so hard it's silly, but aside from that it's a really, really hard matchup.

The only problem is that the only top laner he can play is Blitzcrank.

Nunu, Olaf can truck darius.

Irelia is alright - EQW -> W>E>Q, CS safely and EWautoQauto run to bush if he grabs you (assuming you're lower health... otherwise turn on W and auto until he autoQWautos you, then you'll be lower and EautoQauto.) He pushes early if he uses Q to trade with you, which makes him very easy to gank if your jungler comes top on his first clear, cs in such a way that he'll probably grab you or QE him to initiate the gank. WQE into him immediately if he uses Q on minions once you're level 7+ as long as you still have items to trade. Be aware of his ult - don't let him get 5 stacks of bleed on you post6, keep trades short. You can usually freeze the lane against him if he uses Q on you if you're trading inside the minion wave.

As nearly any top laner vs. Darius, Armor quints help a lot (I use AD Armor MR Armor) because only his DOT is magic damage. HP items help a lot vs. the ulti. (Phage, maybe a doran or two, aegis or randuin)

^ that was my reasoning, from what I saw Irelia and Olaf lose to him (but it may be the Irelia I see letting trades escalate and five stacks of bleed accumulate even when he doesn't have his ult).

Also just played Sivir, was a bit behind since my support (Janna disconnected), made me regret not being first pick since I was against Ezreal+Blitzcrank. FotM too boring, same shit every game. T_T Blitz roamed after awhile then Janna reconnected so everything was fine, casually took a tower off of 2 dorans+BF while the rest were fighting in top jungle (I didn't think the fight would last long enough for me to join them), her ult is "wtf it dropped so fast" when you've got a wave of minions with you. o_o

I kinda feel like Salce's non-committance to practice has been one thing that really kept Evo from being a much better team.


Also his god awful attitude, i dont care how much you think you are better than them but dont go in an interview right after you get eliminated saying I dont wanna play with them cos I play to win, they might not do well anymore after i leave, Im not saying I carry all the time but Im never the one getting stomped in lane etc..
