Love these guides, they are the only guides for toplane that can truly call themselves 'Detailed' on this platform. Looking forward to more content from you! I would love to see a Gnar guide sometime in the future if you have knowledge with him!
As an Ornn main, I would love to hear your take on the champion. I'm in a bit of a slump right now and I feel like an Ornn guide from you might clear up my mind. Day 1 of begging Coach Chippys for an Ornn guide (no pressure tho, please feel free to make guides on whatever champion you feel like making guides on)
This is what i was looking for! I love coach Curtis and Nathan Mott and the BBC podcast but i wanted detailed guides like they do only for top lane! Thanks man 💪💪💪
Yo thank you very much for this video. I am top main playing pretty much only Renekton/Pantheon for the past few seasons but I used to play Darius a bit back in the days and I just felt like picking him up and learning him all over again.. so i went to RUclips and looked for guides and this video covers pretty much everything. Well done❤
I’m a really big fan of your guides. They are very in depth. I was wondering if you could do a Gwen guide. She’s very fun to play and is currently being played at worlds. It would be very helpful if there was a thorough Gwen guide by you. Love the content❤
This is a really well done guide, as a Darius main myself i find some interesting takes. Some points I may disagree is, in lower brackets I believe taking overgrowth is better. Usually you win the lane anyway, most of the times you'll take the 5 plates anyway. So the extra life I think is better for TF's. In the item build sometimes you can fitt in the black cleaver, it gives MS and you can pretty much delete tanks. And in the matchups I think Wukong is actually a Darius counter, he can all in him at lvl 1 and win. He can use E or W to dodge the outer part of the Q.
I absolutely love your guides! I went from bronze to gold with a 67% win precent as fiora. Ive finally started looking for counters into champs I’m bad into. Darius was going to be my next pick up, but i dont see teemo on the match-ups list. I NEED A TEEMO COUNTER
Hey, as a Sion main in can tell you that i love playing against teemo. E => Q => auto everytime he try to CS and post 6 E => R => Q => auto = Dead teemo. this matchup is a roflstomp for Sion
That mid game example you gave was pretty clean. The only thing is that counting on your team to make the calls when you apply pressure bot doesn't really work below diamond at least. You say your team isn't disciplined but imagine at low elo they dont know how to react most of the time since they are on autopilot mode or they just don't have the knowledge on what to do.
Granted im in silver but im consistently getting S or S- after watching this. Biggest takeaway for me is to go dblade 99% of the time. I've got to where Olafs don't even give me issues anymore.
You just made a guide talking about not using lethal tempo, and then Adam brings Darius to WORLDS and stomps with it... just imppecable time to go in depth about it :P
Thanks for the amazing guide. Can't see malphite an teemo in the tierlist and would love to have an opignon on thoses matchups, even if you mentionned that malph is free
Love your content, your guides really help solidify my game sense! I’ve been watching a lot of XCM lately and he tends to build divine sunderer on Darius into certain match ups such as Jax. Could you explain this if possible?
1 thing i think u didnt talk about is that u can e r and the r goes through while they are cced. Mostly used for fiora w and for champs that have stopwatch
Your guides are so helpful! Do you have any advice on learning the ranged matchups when playing things like Olaf and Darius? Like are there certain high elo players I should watch?
Hey Coach, Been watching ur content and I really appreciate the effort put in in all those videos. You must be very busy and I respect the amount of explanation given for all the different champion. I found it was a great way to understand how a champion works to his core to have better chances against them. Do you have any tips on how to track runes like conqueror ? i seem to get lost and never really pay attention to it?
could you do like a kind of video where you explain the mental aspect of league? something like how to focus on improve and not losing motivation etc, because sometimes i truly lost the motivation or feel so bad playing at the game and i dont even have the will for playing, even tho i wanna get better and improve and the game and i may have the wrong mentality and thats why i get so frustrated or sad playing it :(
At the page about item builds, what do you mean with 900-1050 = pickaxe + 2 longswords? A pickaxe and 2 longswords do not cost anything inbetween 900 and 1050 gold. A pickaxe costs less than 900 gold and 2 longswords do too. A pickaxe and a longsword doesnt cost 1050 either so I can't get it to make sense.
55:45 how do you know if you should freeze here or shove and take a plate while Renekton is dead/coming back. I guess if you go for a plate then back he'll get a plate too? Also if you shoved maybe you wouldn't have enough gold for item power spike?
Just one thing, as a master wukong main, this is actually a skill matchup/wukong favored, wukong can win lvl 1 against darius with ignite and E start because of his passive, and for level 6 wukong easily wins
Hey chippys at 30:14 you say E W Q is the best combo to chase someone down if you have to lead with your E, what about E aa W Q, then chase? why is E W Q better? Thanks!
One quick thing. Vayne and quinn isn't that hard for darius as a matchup as long as you've phase rush and cosmic insight secondary. Phase rush is actually a very solid rune for darius vs those ranged champs with dashes and built in disengage since it allows u catch up to them following their disengage spells. Watch dariking (Korean challenger otp) games vs quinn and vayne if you're not sure how to play the matchup correctly. Haven't lost a single lane to vayne or quinn after picking phase rush darius into them. Would instead recommend for people to ban yorick or maybe gp. A yorick player who isn't dumb is going to ruin your day regardless of how well you play unless you get the wave frozen on your side and never let him get lvl 6.
Hi! Thanks for the guide. I have a question: why not use divine sunderer or black cleaver? Usually when I need to go anti tank I do both but here you didn’t even mention them (I’m low elo and just started playing so sorry if the question sounds stupid)
Can you show xp range and when it’s good to kill opponent but dies in the process to deny him wave and when it’s not due to few minions/shutdown/xp you give due to difference in leves etc
I see you have put Nasus in Free(tier list) but actually if you stick with conquerer nasus beats darius after 6. I think some of those matchups actually force you to pick phase rush even though you said to not pick phase rush. I am confused.
Nasus all in isnt as flexible as darius all in and nasus loses HARD pre6, darius can easily deny everything from him and once a darius is 3-0 it doesnt matter who you are against you can run them down
As a Yorick main, it is actually the opposite, Darius is the free-est matchup for Yorick, because Yorick can poke him down with 4 ghouls and there really isn't anything darius can do, Yorick's W if landed can make dari's Q useless, so Ijust want to disagree about that.
bro puts crazy time into these guides
Brother I can not tell you how valuable these guides are for us top laners. We appreciate these more than you know. Very well thought out and in depth
still doesnt help....... with bot lane feeding
The GOAT. Top Quality, as usual. Well done Chippies!
Love these guides, they are the only guides for toplane that can truly call themselves 'Detailed' on this platform. Looking forward to more content from you! I would love to see a Gnar guide sometime in the future if you have knowledge with him!
Great guide mate, im an emrald darius main, and still refresh and learned a lot of things here. Huge thanks
As an Ornn main, I would love to hear your take on the champion. I'm in a bit of a slump right now and I feel like an Ornn guide from you might clear up my mind. Day 1 of begging Coach Chippys for an Ornn guide (no pressure tho, please feel free to make guides on whatever champion you feel like making guides on)
I hope your Ult gets Braum'd
Since Ornn is one of the tanks Chippys suggests having in you pool a guide would be nice,
This is the best Darius guide I've seen on RUclips
Dude, I don t know how you are only at 5k subs. Such great content! 👌🏽👍🏽🤗 thanks!
Love all your guides and this one couldn't have been better timed as I've just started maining darius. Keep up the good work man!
was literally just thinking I'd love a guide on Darius from Coach Chippys 😮💨
This is what i was looking for! I love coach Curtis and Nathan Mott and the BBC podcast but i wanted detailed guides like they do only for top lane! Thanks man 💪💪💪
As a Darius main ive been waiting for this! amazing guide again good work
Yo thank you very much for this video.

These guides rock! Keep it up.
I’m a really big fan of your guides. They are very in depth. I was wondering if you could do a Gwen guide. She’s very fun to play and is currently being played at worlds. It would be very helpful if there was a thorough Gwen guide by you. Love the content❤
You're the goat for these guides
He never mentions vs teemo. Does that mean to just ban teemo?
This is a really well done guide, as a Darius main myself i find some interesting takes.
Some points I may disagree is, in lower brackets I believe taking overgrowth is better. Usually you win the lane anyway, most of the times you'll take the 5 plates anyway. So the extra life I think is better for TF's.
In the item build sometimes you can fitt in the black cleaver, it gives MS and you can pretty much delete tanks.
And in the matchups I think Wukong is actually a Darius counter, he can all in him at lvl 1 and win. He can use E or W to dodge the outer part of the Q.
Great time to drop this with the Adam hype train at Worlds
Yeah these are the best. Thank you very much. A lot of time and detail put into these.
Nice, im actually a darius main, really think you can win all matchups if played correctly. Darius is a beast
You are the best coach
I absolutely love your guides! I went from bronze to gold with a 67% win precent as fiora. Ive finally started looking for counters into champs I’m bad into. Darius was going to be my next pick up, but i dont see teemo on the match-ups list. I NEED A TEEMO COUNTER
Hey, as a Sion main in can tell you that i love playing against teemo. E => Q => auto everytime he try to CS and post 6 E => R => Q => auto = Dead teemo. this matchup is a roflstomp for Sion
@@edgelord6665 thank you boss, ill try it out tomorrow, might finally kill a teemo for once, his blind always ended everything ive loved 🙏
Great guides. I even leave them on for background noise sometimes.
Absolute perfection
Ayy, thanks for the upload
THE BEST GUIDES
I am amazed by the quality of your content!
You are the Shok of toplane. Super high quality and informative vids Thanks!
That mid game example you gave was pretty clean. The only thing is that counting on your team to make the calls when you apply pressure bot doesn't really work below diamond at least. You say your team isn't disciplined but imagine at low elo they dont know how to react most of the time since they are on autopilot mode or they just don't have the knowledge on what to do.
Very good point, I plan to make content focused around lower elo brackets in the future to cover the differences
@@CoachChippysHello, I was wandering if these runes were still the best after the nerfs from 13.20 ?
i usually take trit5(hard winn) then ster then spear(after it's rework) it feel amazing then ga and force of nat for ms
Really good videos man, keep it up!
Camille next?
its great to see Optimum Tech doing League guides now
Thanks for the video coach :)
Granted im in silver but im consistently getting S or S- after watching this. Biggest takeaway for me is to go dblade 99% of the time. I've got to where Olafs don't even give me issues anymore.
Just found this yt channel and it’s a hidden gem
Bro you are the goat ty for your work ❤
You just made a guide talking about not using lethal tempo, and then Adam brings Darius to WORLDS and stomps with it... just imppecable time to go in depth about it :P
As a Darius main, I approve
Your vids are amazing! Can you do split push guide?
Love this type of videos, keep it up
very informative, Thank you so much.
thanks for amazing content
Great video! I learned so much. I was wondering what we do with items now in season 14 though?
You know its informative when you fall asleep to it 😂
Thanks for the amazing guide. Can't see malphite an teemo in the tierlist and would love to have an opignon on thoses matchups, even if you mentionned that malph is free
Love your content, your guides really help solidify my game sense! I’ve been watching a lot of XCM lately and he tends to build divine sunderer on Darius into certain match ups such as Jax. Could you explain this if possible?
Was good until the sunderer nerf, now I don't recommend it
Those full game examples are really useful!
1 thing i think u didnt talk about is that u can e r and the r goes through while they are cced. Mostly used for fiora w and for champs that have stopwatch
i love your videos, thank you very much.
Your guides are so helpful! Do you have any advice on learning the ranged matchups when playing things like Olaf and Darius? Like are there certain high elo players I should watch?
Try not to die as much you add much more value than a ranged top laner like vayne to teamfights
Hey Coach,
Been watching ur content and I really appreciate the effort put in in all those videos.
You must be very busy and I respect the amount of explanation given for all the different champion.
I found it was a great way to understand how a champion works to his core to have better chances against them.
Do you have any tips on how to track runes like conqueror ? i seem to get lost and never really pay attention to it?
29:30 voice went to challenger from iron
Voice demoted the next day for sure hahaha
Great content! Can you maybe do Gwen or Ksante next?
nice video
🪓🪓🪓 lets go new Chippys guide
Exactly what's needed to dunk people all the way to masters
At 19:00 im you e Right away she doesnt get the lvl 2 off the creep because her third q gets canceled befor it connects dmg and cc
could you do like a kind of video where you explain the mental aspect of league? something like how to focus on improve and not losing motivation etc, because sometimes i truly lost the motivation or feel so bad playing at the game and i dont even have the will for playing, even tho i wanna get better and improve and the game and i may have the wrong mentality and thats why i get so frustrated or sad playing it :(

I would love if you did a Sett Guide
Just one thing, as a master wukong main, this is actually a skill matchup/wukong favored, wukong can win lvl 1 against darius with ignite and E start because of his passive, and for level 6 wukong easily wins
Hey chippys at 30:14 you say E W Q is the best combo to chase someone down if you have to lead with your E, what about E aa W Q, then chase? why is E W Q better? Thanks!
Camille Guide when? Love watching these
thanks for the guide, is there a reason as to why you don't want to build both steraks and hullbreaker?
might aswell delete all other darius guides on youtube after this banger dropped
hey man, what about lucidity boots to really lower the cooldowns of the flash and ghost?
Not worth, the CDR doesn't give much value compared to other champs and he needs the beef from defensive boots
Can you do an illaoi guide? Struggle utilizing her properly but ik she's very strong
I gain lane advantages but I have no idea about how to translate them into bigger advantages
I know she is not very meta right now... But is there a Irelia guide in your plans?
i need someone to do these guides for midlane
One quick thing. Vayne and quinn isn't that hard for darius as a matchup as long as you've phase rush and cosmic insight secondary.

Not ranking the Trundle or Malphite matchup?
Can you do jayce next?
Bro freestyling ❤
Camille next please,especially when it feels like you can’t win 1v1 in your lane
Thoughts on cleaver/sunderer?
is this still all applicable today in the current season?
Please do a Moakai guide!!!
Can u do gnar next pls. I love your videos
hows malphite matchup? i usually ban him whatever i play toplane. Just annoying with perma Q pokes and everything else
Hellooo do you coach midlane aswell? If yes im interested in your metafy coaching :D
I beg you guys, how to do you build darius in 14? I feel like all i can do is build full glasscanon like I'll one shot or you'll one shot
Hi! Thanks for the guide. I have a question: why not use divine sunderer or black cleaver? Usually when I need to go anti tank I do both but here you didn’t even mention them (I’m low elo and just started playing so sorry if the question sounds stupid)
Can someone explain the Abyssal Mask? I dont really understand it is it just for the Team or?
Could you update the item section for s14?
Can you show xp range and when it’s good to kill opponent but dies in the process to deny him wave and when it’s not due to few minions/shutdown/xp you give due to difference in leves etc
Please make a season 14 guide
Can we get a Pantheon Guide next pls
Can you do Morde guide
what makes darius a pretty high skill ceiling champ? because his mechanics are not super hard
I got completely BTFO as Darius vs Poppy. Anyone got any advice?
I see you have put Nasus in Free(tier list) but actually if you stick with conquerer nasus beats darius after 6. I think some of those matchups actually force you to pick phase rush even though you said to not pick phase rush. I am confused.
Nasus all in isnt as flexible as darius all in and nasus loses HARD pre6, darius can easily deny everything from him and once a darius is 3-0 it doesnt matter who you are against you can run them down
Let's do SHEN guide! I am main platinum shen!
Not bad 😊
After otping akali for a year im dojng darius, only 2 champs ill climb with
16:04 Bruh ☠
As a Yorick main, it is actually the opposite, Darius is the free-est matchup for Yorick, because Yorick can poke him down with 4 ghouls and there really isn't anything darius can do, Yorick's W if landed can make dari's Q useless, so Ijust want to disagree about that.
Matchups section a bit inaccurate. Yorick is one of his most unplayable matchups post level 6. Pre-6 is darius favoured.
could you do renekton please
He already did
