Darian's fighting style isnt one of control as much as it is one of non stop force and violence. He rapidly engages an enemy, hits them hard, fast, and keeps hitting them until they break. If he's thrown off balance, he'll adjust, correct, and just keep hammering them. If he realizes his up close attack isnt an option he moves out into cover and begins raining down rail gun fire on his opponent as quickly as possible.

Also the idea of throwing your flail as a discus seems like a pretty dumb idea. If the enemy grabs your weapon while its being thrown and then holds onto it, or worse tosses it elsewhere you've now robbed yourself of your weapon. Also if you deploy a long flail against a fast moving opponent like darian he can simply step out of range and then back into range as that flail passes where he was. Beyond that from what i've read and what you've said your guy has a serious issue with face to face range. He likes to keep things between arms lenth and the length of his weapon. So anyone getting inside of that range i'm presuming he'd have a disadvantage due to his size, bulk, and lack of hand to hand skill. Meanwhile Darian is still plenty good at this range both with hand to hand, and just hammering an enemy with partial swings and the like.
