Darius vs Bel'Veth

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Darius must use early jungle pressure to disrupt Bel'Veth's fast clears and delay her scaling power.
Prioritize early river control and Scuttle fights to limit Bel'Veth's objective access and map pressure.

Jungle Plan

Full clear efficiently, then look to contest Scuttle when your lanes can assist or have priority.
Invade Bel'Veth's jungle camps only if you know her location and can force her off before she completes her fast clears.
Use lane priority to set up Rift Herald and dragon control, denying Bel'Veth space to scale and convert objectives.

Danger windows

Be cautious during early isolated river fights where Bel'Veth's mobility and (W) knockup can turn fights.
Avoid low-health clears that leave you vulnerable to counter-invades or forced smite contests.
Respect windows when Bel'Veth secures Herald or Baron, as her true form (R) greatly enhances map pressure and teamfight threat.

Early game

Start with a full clear to reach level 3 quickly and contest first Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority.
Avoid early invades unless you have lane priority or numbers advantage to punish Bel'Veth's medium invade resistance.
Secure river vision early to track Bel'Veth's pathing and set up counter-ganks or invade opportunities.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks your execute (R), enabling lethal skirmishes if you stack passive before engaging.
First completed bruiser item increases your dueling power and survivability, allowing you to force extended fights.
Watch for Bel'Veth's first item spike; punish her before she gains sustained dueling strength and objective pressure.

Win conditions

Use early jungle pressure and invade windows to deny Bel'Veth's fast farming and delay her scaling.
Convert successful Scuttle and Rift Herald control into deep vision and objective pressure to restrict her map movement.
Force fights around dragon and Herald before Bel'Veth completes key items to leverage your stronger early dueling and execute potential.
