How to Play Darius in ARAM Mayhem

You walk up behind your frontline and wait for enemies to come into range of Apprehend (E). Then you pull one in and stack Hemorrhage (passive) to five for the enrage. Hit champions with the edge of Decimate (Q) to heal, and save Noxian Guillotine (R) for low targets, since a kill lets you recast it. Trinity Force and Sterak's Gage keep you dealing damage and alive long enough to chain resets.
