Darius vs Singed

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Use high early lane pressure to deny Singed safe farming and force him into awkward wave states.
Control the wave near your side to bait Singed into your (E) pull range and extended trades.
This is a snowball lane where you must leverage your all-in and reset potential to punish Singed's proxy and disruption style.

Trading pattern

Threaten (E) to control Singed's spacing and force him to respect your all-in.
Extend trades after landing (Q) outer edge to stack your passive and maximize damage.
Punish Singed when he uses (W) and (E) poorly by locking him down with your pull and finishing with (R) after passive stacks.

Danger windows

Be cautious when your (E) pull is on cooldown, as Singed can kite and disengage more easily.
Avoid extended trades when Singed has (R) active and can run through fights with speed and durability.
Watch for (W) grounding slow combined with (E), which can disrupt your engage and positioning.

Early game

Start with aggressive trades using (E) pull to force Singed into melee range where you excel.
Use (Q) outer edge to heal and chip Singed before he can safely proxy or disrupt waves.
Avoid pushing without vision as Singed's mobility and proxy paths can punish overextension.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks your (R) execute and reset, enabling lethal trades after stacking passive; use this to snowball.
First bruiser item increases your durability and damage, letting you force longer trades and survive Singed's disruption.
Respect Singed's level 6 (R) for his increased speed and durability; avoid chasing through his poison when it's active.

Win conditions

Force Singed into extended melee trades near your side of the wave to stack passive and secure kills with (R).
Deny Singed's proxy attempts by controlling wave position and punishing his overextensions with (E) pull.
Use your lane pressure and kill threat to snowball, then apply side-lane pressure to leverage your juggernaut strength.
