Based on 10 recent matches analyzed, Ivern wins with a 60.0% win rate compared to Darius's 40.0%, giving Ivern a 20.0 percentage point advantage. Ivern dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Darius players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential.
