Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Darius, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Darius wins 57.4% of 54 games (95% range 44.2–69.7%).
  • Both champions' overall Top win rates predict 50.4% for Darius; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Darius players pick Plated Steelcaps much less often against Vladimir: 56.3% of their other Top games, 21.7% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Darius and Vladimir played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Darius's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

What Darius Changes Against Vladimir

Choices Darius players make noticeably more or less often in this matchup than in their other Top games.

Best Darius Build vs Vladimir

Usual Darius build (Top)

75.7% win rate · 37 games

Against Vladimir

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 3 of 13 Darius games against Vladimir carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Darius's standard build instead.

  • Skill priority: Q > E > W — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
