Notes

  1. Updated for League of Legends Patch 14.1

How it works

  1. You play Support who goes tanky.

How to play

  1. Identify your role within the team (engage, peel, frontline)
  2. If your team needs engage, go Trailblazer and Shurelya's Battlesong
  3. If your team needs peel, go Knight's Vow and Locket of the Iron Solari.
  4. Knight's Vow is a surprisingly good item. Buy it and use it if you have carry or bruiser/fighter who is doing well.
  5. You need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  6. Be careful to not waste Aftershock. Try timing it and keeping it for going in.

Tips and Tricks

Riot
  1. Decimate is a powerful harassment ability. Strike an enemy from maximum range for the greatest effect.
  2. Noxian Guillotine does more damage the more attacks you can land prior to it. Use Noxian Might to deal maximum damage.
  3. Darius benefits greatly from enhanced survivability. The longer you can prolong a fight, the more powerful he becomes.
