8 months ago 97

A lot of players have been dedicatedly queueing up Teamfight Tactics (TFT) and have been having fun while at it since the launch of Set 9 Runeterra Reforged. Runeterra Reforged is Riot Games’ most comprehensive set to date filled with new mechanics, and scattered with displaced champions and traits from across Runeterra. However, with mid-set 9.5 Horizonbound just around the corner, players have been trying to make the most out of the meta.

If you played this Set in the recent days, you must know how annoying and overpowered Darius is, especially when he dunks your units down and one-shots them.

In this guide, we will look at the best items to build on Darius and the team composition you should be aiming for.
