Darius was never a beloved commander in Noxus. He had to overcome many conspiracies and fought on the front lines in numerous battles to get where he is today. Now, he continues to strengthen his position in Noxus by eliminating his rivals.
You can watch the gameplay video here without my commentary:
We started this game with two component item forges. This will make it easier for me to craft the items I want.
I chose Replication as my first augment. You select a component item and gain one of that item for three turns.
The early game wasn't too bad. I won the first two fights and then lost three. This was partly because I couldn't find Darius.
For the second augment, I chose Invested++. I need to do a lot of refreshes to get Darius to 3 stars. This won't be easy. I need both gold and refreshes.
By the end of the mid-game, I managed to find one Darius and gave him the items, but my composition is terrible. Losing right now is pretty normal.
For the final augment, I chose Band of Thieves. In my opinion, it's one of the most reliable choices. It grants you a Thief Gloves item.
Darius started dealing damage once he reached 2 stars. 7000 damage is amazing! Of course, being a 6 Heavyweight also plays a big role in this.
I just can't get Darius to 3 stars, and that's frustrating. I can beat some opponents, but it's not enough because my health is too low. I need to spend all my money and finally get this champion to 3 stars. Then I'll level up and activate the 4 Supreme Cells.
In this composition, I don't have a single carrier, but I'm doing well because I have multiple carriers.
I finally managed to get 3-star Darius. I also have 3-star Kobuko and 3-star Jayce. The best items for Darius are Infinity Edge, Edge of Night, and Sterak's Gage. Jayce is both a tank and a fighter champion. I gave him tank items, but you can also choose Bloodthirster, Sterak's Gage, and Titan's Resolve.
Wow! My opponent was playing a Crew composition and had given Ziggs a hat power fruit. He had accumulated a lot of hats, but I managed to win anyway. This also meant his elimination.
This opponent combined the Battle Academia and Star Guardian compositions. It was interesting, but I still managed to defeat him. Maybe I'll try it sometime lol.
Ahh, there was one more opponent playing a Battle Academia composition, but they were much stronger. They were regenerating a lot of mana with the Prodigy emblem, and Yuumi wiped me out. I guess I need to find a better power fruit for Darius.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find a better power fruit, and I lost because I couldn't set up my composition properly. I wish I had placed Darius correctly so he could have used his ultimate on Yuumi.
Considering my starting position, finishing 2nd was a huge achievement. I'll count that as a win! Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed it. Don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments. See you in my next game post!
