Depends. But unless they have a very specific composition i would say Karma. The free Talisman available by level 2 is just so strong. The engage/disengage potential is just so high as support Karma

Again I don't know if this is going to count as free elo, but I like picking Darius.

From my experience, people have no idea how to counter pick Darius. I've had people pick Jax, Aatrox, Garen, etc. against me. It's been glorious.

Maybe you see it like this because... You can't counter pick Darius ?

I remember wickd in his AMA was saying how he would be a strong top laner again if Irelia was playable. Then he:


+ Show Spoiler +
picked Malphite top lane vs Mundo when Renekton and Rengar are available and proceeded to throw the game by building triforce and atma's


It feels like he is just unwilling to adapt to the meta and only wants to play from his own out of favour champion pool. I don’t see Alliance going on for long with this kinf of top laner.

I'm not a professional by any means, but from my experience Darius just bullies Jax too much during the early levels of laning phase, from which he just gains the advantage and just rolls with it.

Maybe Kayle counter picks Darius, but no more than she does any other melee (probably less since he can close the gap and keep it closed pretty well). Other than that it's the jungler that counters Darius.

I wouldn't fear picking Trundle into Darius but I wouldn't expect to win the lane either. If you are against a baddie Darius who takes Q at level 1 maybe you can snowball an early lead.

Wait, what do you take at level 1 as Darius then?

Honestly I have no idea. I haven't played the guy in forever.

I completely disagree with your post in spoilers.

A good Kayle wrecks Darius, but the problem is that it's much harder for the Kayle to do well in that matchup. If Kayle gets grabbed even once a competent Darius can go ham with that edge and win the lane.

Personally, I've been playing a decent amount of Jax lately because he just wrecks Mundo. My strat is to not ban Mundo, laugh as the other team insta locks Mundo, then play Jax and get free elo.

If you wanna wreck most all FotM toplaners, Trundle has been a great pick for me these past weeks. What a beastly champion.

I see season 4 is starting but I haven't read anything about the Rune changes or Baron buff changes. Did I miss them or did Riot give up on it?
