Darius into Wukongmedium

Overview

Use Darius's stronger early dueling to contest camps and deny Wukong jungle tempo before level 6.
Prioritize river vision and Scuttle control to limit Wukong's level 6 engage and teamfight impact.
Leverage your higher early damage to force Wukong into farming under pressure, delaying his power spike.

Path for a three-camp clear then contest Scuttle only if lanes can follow or counter-gank Wukong's engages.
Invade and steal camps when Wukong is pathing toward teamfight lanes to leverage your stronger pre-6 dueling.
Control dragon vision and Rift Herald setup to leverage stronger objective control and deny Wukong's scaling.

Beware Wukong's level 6 river fights where his knockup can isolate and disrupt.
Avoid low-health clears or forced smite fights near dragon where Wukong's engage and clone deception peak.
Exercise caution when lanes lack priority, as Wukong can invade or force unfavorable skirmishes.

Full clear quickly to reach level 3 and contest first Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority.
Avoid early invades without lane priority or vision advantage to punish Wukong's medium invade resistance.
Secure river Scuttle when safe to deny Wukong's engage setup and force him to farm passively.

Level 6 unlocks execute, making extended trades lethal; stack passive before committing.
First bruiser item completion boosts durability and damage, enabling longer fights and safer counter-jungling.
Respect Wukong's level 6 engage spike by contesting river vision and avoiding isolated fights without backup.

Convert early dueling wins into counter-jungling pressure to deny Wukong farm and delay his level 6 spike.
Use vision control around dragon and Rift Herald to force favorable teamfights where your all-in and execute reset excel.
Leverage stronger side-lane pressure and objective control to snowball leads and force Wukong into reactive play.
