Is Darius OverPowered (OP)?

There is a lot of griping going on right now about how the new champion is "overpowered". Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. But what's for damn sure is that I beat the living crap out of him!

Why do players think he's overpowered?


I think this has a lot to do with the fact that he's a new champion that players have never faced before. They don't understand what he does or how to fight him. This is problematic for most newbie players because they tend to lose games... again and again and again. Incoming tears on the forums, please!

Is Darius really overpowered (OP)?


No, he is not. He is just a bit more ferocious than other champions. His play-style is still a pansy "cooldown" type, so he does best when he gets to harass you with skills to wear you down in lane. If you force him to engage, you will have the upper hand (assuming you have chosen a corresponding champion). He is also a "squishy champion eater", so forget about it if you're playing lame Morgana or useless Kassadin or worthless Nida Lee.

I will be making a new post in a few minutes on "how to counter Darius". Stay tuned.

Do you think that Darius is overpowered?

Social Gaming is IN!



Gaming is the new social platform for many people all over the world. This excites me even more when I see entire communities being built around certain games! This is bigger than you think, trust me on this.

Some popular games that are pretty popular at the moment are:
League of Legends
StarCraft 2
World of Warcraft
AION
Maple Story
WarCraft 3: The Frozen Throne
Counter-Strike: Source
Counter-Strike
Half-Life 2
Halo
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
FarmVille (FaceBook Game)
Restaurant City (FaceBook Game)
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
...and more

There are many more games that I have not listed here that are popular and most likely will remain popular throughout the years.

What I can say is this: games are addicting. And gamers are people, so people naturally want to find other people to be around. This generation has found comfort in the virtual world and are spending more and more time online. I see this as a good thing, as I find that it is a great way to meet people and make new friends.

And to the more business-minded, it is increasingly worth your while to market to these avid gamers. ;-)
