Tryndamere vs Darius

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Prioritize building Fury and controlling side-lane duels where you can chase with (E) and force extended fights using (R).
Manage lane priority to deny Darius free stacks on his passive by punishing his attempts to pull you with (E).

Jungle Plan

Stack Fury before engaging and use (E) only when you can chase or reset a fight, avoiding getting pulled by Darius’s (E).
Punish Darius’s missed (E) by stepping forward aggressively to build pressure and force him off camps or objectives.
Use side-lane pressure to force Darius to respond, then leverage your (R) window to convert low-health skirmishes into objectives or kills.

Danger windows

Respect Darius’s (E) pull cooldown; engaging while it’s available risks being locked down and burst.
Avoid extended fights before you have (R) or high Fury, as Darius’s passive stacks and (R) execute can quickly overwhelm you.
Be cautious contesting river or objectives when low on health or without vision, as Darius’s level 6 all-in threat is highest in isolated fights.

Early game

Use early levels to stack Fury quickly and avoid engaging Darius without (R) or high Fury to prevent getting locked down by his (E) pull.
Avoid extended early fights before level 6 when Darius’s execute and passive stacks are most threatening.
Look for opportunities to build Fury through safe autos and use (W) to reduce his damage when he commits to trades.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) unlocks death denial, letting you force all-ins that would otherwise be lethal; use this to commit to fights when Darius’s (E) is down.
High Fury increases your short trade threat and sustain; trade aggressively when Fury is stacked to outheal Darius’s damage.
Two-item spike enhances your crit damage and mobility uptime, making splitpush pressure and extended duels much more favorable.

Win conditions

Convert Fury-stacked trades and (R) death denial into extended duels that force Darius to burn cooldowns or summoners.
Use side-lane pressure to pull Darius away from team objectives, then secure Rift Herald or Dragon with your team.
Deny Darius free farm and passive stacks by punishing his attempts to engage, scaling into a splitpush threat that forces enemy responses.
