How to Play with Darius as Zoe in LoL

The Zoe Darius synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Darius, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Zoe sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Darius. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Darius helps Zoe perform poorer in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.

When Zoe tries to synergize with Darius, she gets a small increase in her total damage output. This change may signal that Darius supports by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Zoe is played with Darius on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Darius. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Darius.

Additionally, when Zoe plays with Darius on the same team, she usually takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Darius does a decent job of protecting Zoe in teamfights.

By locking into the same side as Zoe, he improves their win rate by 0.4% to 47.4%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Zoe and Darius that results in them performing at the top of their game together than without each other.

Darius has a much lower diffuclty than Zoe. That means you don't need to be careful when finding Darius teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

When playing on the same side, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these champs will be a great protective duo.

Although, by bringing Zoe and Darius together, you will not be giving your other allies enough support. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that helps cover this relative disparity in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Darius ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
