Tips Against Diana in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Katawina52 says “(Always go conq vs diana) You can easly kill her before her first back so lvls 3-6 mostly, but this is the only window you have and if you didn't kill her before that she will just win every trade thanks to her tankiness. You can go Wits Endvs Diana to survive WAY easier, however I would only recommend taking it if the enemy jungler is AP as well. If you look to kill her before her back make sure to E in when she uses her Q to dodge and prevent her double E. This should almost always win the trade and you can of course use this trick after her first back, but she will likely win with R and her raw tankiness. Else just wait for 2v2/3v3/4v4 fights or your bork and you can be stronger than her (better go 0-0 than risk 1v1 if u think u cant)”
WayOfTheTempesst says “Pretty easy matchup since Diana really isn't a champion untill lvl 6. Windwall the Q so she can't resit her ult. Can get an early hexdrinker or at least a magic mantle if you really struggle with this matchup.”
Vicksay says “While weak pre-6, most Diana's can ignore this stage of the game just by taking Teleport and ignoring a lot of your damage with her W while also pushing at the same time. Her burst damage is insane even if she doesn't have one item completed, a Q on you is a very high chance of death. Extremely high damage combined with a shield that makes her hard to kill, you pretty much have to play at max range farming with Q's and making sure she doesn't roam. Not much of a problem in team fights if you have a team that peels her and you also have a Banshee's, but oh man is she annoying to lane against.”
7daysko says “Not as scary as she looks. If you dodge her Q, she will fall back and wait for her cooldowns. If she decides to all-in instead, she will have wasted her ulti's reset (and potentially, her escape), so you can easily out-trade her. Never use your ulti before she uses her E though, and don't let her snowball because she won't need to cast ulti twice to destroy you.”
Fuzzmonkey says “Diana is a bit of a nasty match up since she can deny your burst with her W. Try bait this out with your Q. At level 6 make sure she never gets a Q on you, otherwise she'll follow up with R and it's very hard to get away from her since she can also deny your W with her E. Look for open spaces when her W is on cooldown.”
Yeager says “She's free pre 6 as she can't do anything. Diana players almost never take cleanse so you can call your jungler early on for a easy gank because she will most likely push the lane with her W. After 6 you should be careful and not stay within range of her Q ever. Getting boots early can help you dodge her abilities while kiting back and forth. You mainly want to shove her and then roam because you can't fight a diana after 6 unless she messes up. ”
Drewmatth Taliyah says “MELEE = PUSH EARLY (LEVELS 1-2) - CARE FOR GANKS! (SPAM Q'S TILL 50-60% MANA).
Ring + 2 Pots if you want to try to go for the kills, Corrupting if you want just to spam ganks pre/post 6.
Killing a Diana is a bit difficult early on because she can just stay behind minions and use her shield when needed. Doing a full combo on her might get her to 20-30% hp but you will probably never one shot her unless you are very fed.
Her kill potential is enabled at level 3 but it's a bit hard for her to actually get the kill unless the Taliyah literally doesn't pay attention. After 6 just consider her a small time assassin and play accordingly.. Pick Ignite or Exaust for survivability and go for a Null Mantle early (some MR helps).”
Aethlo says “Diana has the wave clear advantage. ||
Diana wins pre-3. ||
Diana and Annie are even pre-6. ||
Diana and Annie are even post-6. ||
Annie slightly out-scales Diana. ||
Annie slightly outscales Diana. ||
Tip: Diana wins pre-3 due to her w shield - if she ever wastes/uses it, that is your time to trade... This concept continues through the lane. If she ever doesn't reset her e on a trade (with moonlight) then that is another good time to trade. The one-shot build is good because rocketbelt allows you to hold onto flash to disengage from Diana.”
iZianni says “If she ever Es on to you, you will likely die.
Diana is a mage-bruiser which makes it EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to kill her because of increased HP pool + magic resist.
You shouldn't really ever win this match up, but if you're playing safely she shouldn't be able to kill you either unless you get Q-E'd, E'd from a minion.
Farm lane, just don't die!”
Yeager says “She is tanky with W shield and she also has a lot of burst that you won't be able to match early game. If you get hit by Q, then she will most likely engage onto you. Dodging her Q can be hard if you're not familiar with how it works. It travels in an arc so you can dodge it by moving towards Diana when she's using it. If she wastes her Q, then she can't do much until it's up again because her dash won't reset without it. Play around her Q and W cooldowns. If possible go for super short trades early with Q3 knock up and disengage before she's able to proc electrocute. You outscale her super hard after a few items so you can always play the farming game with full defensive runes if you normally struggle against her. Diana's biggest weakness is that once she engages, she has no way out again. ”
Hienaa says “She cant win trades vs you at any point of the game, if she doesnt build seekers you insta win the game, always try to all in in every level, you always have advantage, but try to respect her W”
Edg3Lord says “While she is a good engager and will deal great amounts of damage, you do eventually outtrade her. Most importantly, if you want to bait her into a fight, risk not blocking one of her Qs and then activate your W when you see she is on the verge of dashing or to block her ultimate, both which can be outstanding moves to trap her tethered in your E.”
Yeager says “Pre-6 she either plays passive or shoves with w. You can easily control the lane.
Post-6 be careful especially if it's the burst diana build. Getting a banshee's after ludens echo is great into Diana because she really struggles removing that shield.
Being immobile and melee makes her super vulnerable to ganks, so fi she starts w and constantly shoves the wave, call for your jungler and setup some free kills. ”
Impossible2Gank says “She can be annoying to deal with ever since the update gives her a dash prior to 6 now so just feel them out to see how they make plays before making one yourself.”
iZianni says “It's a melee champion with very high bruiser stats, your damage might not stick as well but if she poorly optimizes her items she will explode :).
Avoid taking Q damage for free by standing opposite side of her Q arc,
She'll try to force all ins by using multi-charges to close the distance but if you're holding E you can disengage this easily.
The real issue typically lies with the side lane if she picks up enough tank stats. ”
Ambitieux says “With new Diana rework Diana doesn't have the damage to kill you in lane early. Take magic resist runes into this and have ur Charm ready for when she is dashing. If so you should win the trades. Keep her pushed in and autoing her under turret. You can look for ulting out of her ult but it will barely not make it, so try to get a nice charm in if possible and ult out and you should be good. You need to watch out for when she is fed late game, may need to TECH in a negatron. Other than that its all up to the user in lane if she gets big enough. Id suggest getting jungler help but if it's too hard maybe looking to gank early could be better. It's not that the lane is unplayable its just hard to survive if she is too ahead.”
Candyness says “High burst damage and mobility. Though you can punish her somewhat since she's a melee assassin, you don't have much gain either as you're not exactly long range.”
Curt Mcbeltpants says “Diana is one of my favorite matchups, she will tickle you with her combo if played right with aftershock and merc treads and you'll usually win trades against her. During teamfights look to ult the teammate she is focusing.”
Yasukeh says “She can definitely do enough damage to kill you pre 6, but if you don't let her sit on you and do damage, you should easily be able to win. Try to bait out her shield by auto > spinning away, then going back in next cooldown. New diana stat checks you for a bit, especially before you have ult. If you can burn her cooldowns, you should be able to win a fight with her. Trade with her after she uses her shield, and right after she does her third auto attack. ”
harris tegas says “she isnt problem because if she dives you with ulty you can do E , you might not dodge her ulty but you will go away and then its your turn to dive with the combo : E R Q R W Q.”
LunarVortex says “Don't waste your Q or she might run you down and force you to ult. Try to spellshield her ult. If you fail to do so, start ulting yourself and chain it with your Q if she stays inside it.”
DarDarThePenguin says “Diana has strong all-ins at level 3 and can easily out burst and out DPS Yone in the early and mid game. Try not to fall too far behind early and feel free to buy MR components. Take the Standard page and double MR.”
Hullos says “Pre 6 is even due to her lack of cc, but post 6 she wins the fights easy and becomes a team fight monster. Avoid getting her fed, she has more carry potential that any other major threat.”
Avucado says “Immense amount of poke, damage (with alternator), and can very easily stick on you. After she engages post 6 you have to wait for her R to go off because if you E immediately there is a 50/50 chance you get pulled right back in from her R mid E. Try to get an E off Lvl 1 then after that you will have to play for hook poke. Her W will make her win basically all trades. Ask for ganks as it is the only way to kill a competent Diana in lane. Hexdrinker is recommended.”
iZianni says “This champ is very strong in preseason, has multiple gap closers and self cc along with a shield. You might be able to bully her the first couple levels but her mana usage is so low that you'll eventually find yourself being poked lower than her. It takes one E-Q to combo you into the ground.
Avoid moonlight.
”
JustMTK says “Diana is one of the most annoying matchups, although it's melee which should be good for Qiyana. The reason why is, is because she her kit allows to stop our burst damage (her W) and is able to trade better in the end. An option is to play it slow and sometimes hide so she thinks you went base. Then after she uses W to push a wave you go in for a trade.”
Eriosunx says “Diana is a pretty hard matchup, this one can be played with BOTH CONQUEROR AND ELECTROCUTE buildpaths, I usually play with CONQUEROR+BONEPLATING+MR IN STATS , starting with LONGSWORD+3POTS and RUSHING BOTRK, once you have BOTRK CLOSED you can face a pretty consistent 1V1 INTO DIANA.
MAKE SURE TO NOT GET POKED FROM HER Q and another must is AVOIDING TAKING TRADES WHEN DIANA HAS HER SHIELD (W) UP.
You will most likely lose every trade if she has her SHIELD(W) READY TO GO.”
Mpegial says “While she isn't *hard to kill she does some major damage, the best thing would be to try to Outpoke her and deal even more damage while preferably dodging her Q”
Fuzzmonkey says “Pretty dangerous champ to play against after level 6. Would recommend getting of as many poke as possible as quickly as you can. If you Q - E then W make sure this is done as fast as you can since she can deny the W damage if your stun comes off. Stay away from her Q at level 6, since this will be her chance of getting onto you. Waveclear and roam if possible. ”
Akali187 says “Use your E to when she dashes towards you and hopefully you will dodge her Ultimate. You should beat her in lane and in 1 v 1. But it is a skilled match up and she has strong poke and engage.”
crabbix says “She can shield herself to avoid a lot of trade damage, and her ult is uncomfortable for you to face. You usually can't 100-0 her, try to focus the other squishies.”
Coldsong says “Diana has some of the highest burst in the entire game. Watch out for her Q, as it makes her E able to be reset. Her shield absorbs a lot of damage if she has a lot of AP, so make sure to wait it out before fighting her. If she ults, try to Q to a minion to get away since it deals a lot of damage.”
Luciiid says “Can take conqueror or electrocute. Skill matchup. Dodge the Q and you can trade for free. Her W shield makes it annoying to trade, so look to trade with her before she levels it.”
Sailor MOwOn says “A good Diana can close gap on you fairly easily, but I have personally not had trouble with her. She HAS to come near you at some point, either with her E following her Q or to last hit minions. You can poke her out really easily. She will roam, though, and that's a downside.”
Baion says “Just farm safe, really. Her potential to kill you is amazing, primarily if you hit E and use Passive. Rush Lost Chapter and then Stopwatch. Ask jungler ganks and good luck!”
PASS10NE says “I am not that familiar with this skill match up, but she's basically an AP talon. Avoid her Q so she can't use her E without cooldown. Be wary of her W's shield. You can try to all in her if her E is on CD.”
ParkboyYT says “Super Hard Matchup. After level 6 IT IS ESSENTIAL that you don't let her land a careless Q on you or because she will instantly e and r and you shouldn't expect to live after that.”
Coldsong says “Diana has 0 crowd control before level 6, so bully her as much as you can. Once she does hit level 6, DODGE HER Q! It will cause her to reset her E, which in return will probably kill you without MR.”
TheoRut says “Don't try to 1v1 her at any stage of the game unless you are ahead of her by an extreme amount. She will just Q + E you and you will most likely miss your Q + E wich means you are dead in the majority of cases. Since she can just E you again after you E her.
Phase rush is recommended.”
Modern Giraffe says “Surprisingly not that bad. Ult her ult when needed and dodge her q's. She has engage but no disengage so gank your own lane with your jg as much as you want.”
NuclearAkali says “A tanky mage assassin that can burst you to pieces if you play the lane wrong. Diana's shield can make trades very hard and her Q - E combo is very nasty. Try to trade with her when she is low on mana or has her Q or W on cooldown. If she refuses to use her abilities until you go in just try to get picks with your jungler in other lanes.”
Lavishmouse1032 says “you mostly have to watch out for her q because it hurts and try to go in once she uses her w because her cooldown window is 15 seconds level one and most dianas upgrade this one either second or first and they cooldowns get lower”
Cessless says “All of these options (and others that fit the description) pose a threat to Kog'Maw as his limited mobility leaves him vulnerable to any champion that can close the gap on him and possibly burst him down. Positioning is key in many fights but one wrong move with these types of champions can spell death very fast.”
Black Shadow QIYANA says “Because of Diana shield and her Hp which is really high but she does alot of damage if you want to kill her early id prefer to have your jungler with you gank early and you kill her maybe 1 or 2 times and whenever she R use your R to push her back away from you so you can either dash to someone with E or dash away from her R with ur W”
eiensiei says “I'll take as much advantage of my range as I can before 3 - trades are easy to win when she has no gap closer and her Q is easy to dodge, but after 3 I'll stay away. She usually rushes a pure AP item (Rabadon/Spellbinder) and has more damage than Lux - she's also unkillable unless I can proc a full combo with passives, but if I can do that it means I'm in range of her E and very much dead. Her E has a reset when she uses it on a target afflicted with her Q debuff, so she can Q a minion, E to it, E to me and pull me in with R if I'm not careful. She's not a huge problem in lane, but turns into a monster later on.”
Sanctuar says “Her all-ins depend on hitting her Q. Dodge the ability and harass her every time she tries to cs. If she jumps on you past level 6, punish her with your entire combo. ”
PlayCabex says “pretty easy match up , she is melee so you can just bully her in lane , when she fights with you lvl 6 , she will use her q probably and then jump on you , use ult q and go to e and w , you come out from your w and you do aa and q again and so on until you kill her”
Tauricus2017 says “She is very strong and deadly. If you engage on her, but won't kill her, you will most likely die as she crushes your small HP bar. Try to take short trades and dodge her Q. Play safe and use your W as an escape tool”
ReapeRGP says “I totally hate this matchup, as much as I hate to play against fizz. If she gets 1 kill then RIP. She has a shield, one-shot potential and can harass you. Just farm and play safe and try to call your jungler if you feel you can kill her, otherwise don't, because if she kills you or your jungler you're are screwed in lane. ”
BIG BRAIN MAN says “You can somewhat contest her in a long trade early on, especially with conqueror. (unless she has it too) Get hexdrinker. If she engages onto you, do not be afraid to trade back, you can't let her get free trades. Walk into the middle of her Q curve to try to dodge it. ”
MikeVix says “Diana has good poke. Try to dodge Q because if it hits she is going to all in you with QEWE. When you get ult try to dodge her r with yours.”
Saddest says “You can win a 1v1 until she puts a point into her shield. Extremely tanky for whatever reason. Use your Shunpo to avoid her R, and you will win the fight.”
MikaeraKun says “Very tough and very hard matchup, she is basically impossible to play against if ahead even slightly, so try and harass her with your jungler.”
wDesired says “Not much of a threat if you know how to play this matchup
Try not to waste your W for pushing unless she backs or you kill her
Don't waste your abilities and trade back when she comes in for a trade
R her R to dodge”
VyoS says “Trade with W back E Q W for one sided trades. Dodge her R with your Ultimate, its really easy, she loses a lot of dmg with that. If she got ahead buy merc Treads. Always dodge her R or you probably lose. Poke her first and then wait again for your W cooldown.”
DarkAuraLOL says “Diana kind of has tanky stats into Blue Kayn, her clear is not that bad, and it's healthy, hence why this matchup is even. You have to cheese her camps early, and get a slight lead and track her well to make her fall behind, then you can counter gank her and be much stronger to the point you get form and mythical item then you're fine.”
shidonryoku says “Deals quite a lot of damage to it's combo, but you are stronger, only be careful with creeps. She also surpasses you a lot in mid game.”
Wholesomefrog says “She can dash to you from miles away, try to keep distance and poke her so she falls behind. This will also help your team a lot because a fed diana can easily 1v9 the game.”
OhReflects says “Not fun, not fun at all just dodge her q to stop her from ulting twice to get even more damage off. shut her down early. Finish the game as early as possible she is still a broken champion.”
DabiDabi says “Diana's orbs is the biggest problem, wait for her orbs to run out then all in her if you can. And try avoiding her Q since she can E + W + R on you and proc passive.”
BigFatCat909 says “Diana should be your ban if you're not too used to Zed. If you're experienced on Zed this matchup is only survivable with a Hexdrinker Eclipse rush.”
duhnx says “This is hard but can be done. Be very careful, as autoing her doesn't even out trades due to her passive. Her ult also hurts a lot but if you save your E for that, you are basically in the clear. Just be careful as she can one shot you.”
Hiimkata says “(Always go conq vs diana) You can easly kill her before her first back so lvls 3-6 mostly, but this is the only window you have and if you didn't kill her before that she will just win every trade thanks to her tankiness. You can go Wits Endvs Diana to survive WAY easier, however I would only recommend taking it if the enemy jungler is AP as well. If you look to kill her before her back make sure to E in when she uses her Q to dodge and prevent her double E. This should almost always win the trade and you can of course use this trick after her first back, but she will likely win with R and her raw tankiness. Else just wait for 2v2/3v3/4v4 fights or your bork and you can be stronger than her (better go 0-0 than risk 1v1 if u think u cant)”
Bwonsamdilol says “Not so hard to lane against before her first back. If you don't kill before her back she is very tanky and will need jungle assistance.”
Balik Aadam says “Pyke 6. seviyeden sonra suikasçılara karşı gücünü kaybeder. Erken oyunda kesmeniz gerekir. Yakıncı büyücülere karşı her zaman agresif oynanmalıdır.
”
ShadowSlayerMain says “Heavy Melee damage so just last hit minions, Hexdrinker is optional, use your blinking to run away so she can't use her strong Auto Attacks or W”
mrsuits says “One of the hardest matchups in my opinion. She can always get into your face and poke you so always keep one soldier and your E up . If she hits her Q, prepare for her E follow. Scenario 1. If it is pre-6 put soldier on top of you and try to deny her E damage by pressing E yourself. If it is after 6 try to do this. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/852648111
in teamfights get a feel of what she might do. If she goes for you push her away, If she goes for your team melt everyone else. ”
UnoTrickCho says “Kind of like the akali matchup but harder, the fact that she can instantly stack conqueror makes it a rough matchup. Just try to land your q's and wind wall hers. Despite being a terrible matchup, you can actually run conqueror against her.”
lenithebot says “Diana has good poke with q and has her E to get in your face and all in. When she lands a q prepare by putting a soldier behind you and using e to get out before her all in. After 6 if you get in her R use your r to disengage make sure she does not have e up so she cant e to you through the wall.”
Mirster says “Even though her R was switched up with her E, Diana is still quite a hard egg to crack. Wait for your jg, take waves and play safe. Go ALL IN when she uses her Q on minions or you dodge it out.”
ParkChnm says “Somewhat annoying matchup, you have to charm her dash. That's it. You can push her into tower and bully her, but you still have to be wary of her dash. Try not to let her get strong, whether it be from roaming or you feeding.”
oxydon141414 says “A good diana will just stomp you, she's way too op and has a lot more damage than you do. Just watch other lanes and look for roam opportunities.”
Jnewbringspain says “Really no threat to you. She is at a huge disadvantage being a melee character. Any time she goes all in, slow her with Vorpal Spikes and land an easy Rupture. Throw out Rupture whenever she tries to farm too.”
VeneficusFerox says “Dodge to win. Be VERY careful when dropping low, because she will dive you under tower very early. Mostly dangerous when left to feed on your team mates when you have to go back to heal.
Most threat is removed when you get boots and learn how to dodge her Q.”
wildersovereign says “Very easy matchup, all things considered. Unfortunately, you don't have the poke early on to bully her out of farm, but it's very unlikely that she'll be able to kill you. Her R is pretty telegraphed, so be sure to shield it. Don't waste your Q if she has you marked with Moonlight, because she'll take the opportunity to all-in you. She is squishy and lacks a proper disengage tool, so she is very easy to kill as long as she doesn't one-shot you. ”
Nevemlaci says “Even lane, if she lands Q disengage because she can E you twice. If she uses her ult she has no more CC so wait her ult then use yours.”
ITSDEBEAR says “Coinflip matchup. 1-2 kill adv wins the lane if you know how to position. Both electro and phase rush work here but electro is better if you are against a bad diana.”
rajsovsky says “She's pretty annyoing and has a lot of potential to kill you in early game, also has a lot of damage, so try to respect her. Depending on her playstyle you need to decide if you need wraiths here. Be aware but dont be afraid to take trades like Empowered Q>AA>E>Pool(W).”
Yumi Project says “Depends on Diana. try to stay on her left to avoid her Q. If she run conqueror u cant win. if she rush electrocute just auto her till dead.”
invalidd says “Really hard matchup because of her tankiness, hook her when she jumps you with Q E combo, post lvl6 wait for her ulti pull before you E
or she will drag you in with her, E lvl1 can work. Easy to setup ganks on.”
Sylvan Lore says “Diana is definitely one of the tougher match-ups for Orianna. It takes a lot of time to learn how to dodge her curved Q, but just try to remember that you have a better chance of dodging it if you walk sideways that if you walk directly away from her. She has tons of dashes and is very deceptively tanky. Early levels it is your goal to pressure her as much as possible while not getting poked out by her Q. From level 3 on, she will most likely win any fair trade where you have not poked her down beforehand. I would highly recommend not trying to 1v1 her without jungle pressure or a clear understanding of how her champion works. Merc treads are fine here if you are really struggling with the matchup, but even they wont help you much. Teleport would be fine if she took it, but given that most Dianas take ignite, Barrier or Exhaust are likely better her. She will often splitpush in the midgame which you can match so long as you have a Zhonyas. The most likely way you will lose to her is if she gets a flank or you get trapped in the jungle. Do your best to maintain vision and distance on Diana in and around any mid/lategame teamfights so you aren't caught in the burst and can peel you team. Standard runes should be fine against her but potentially a stopwatch since zhonya's will be crucial to avoid her predictable burst.”
Aikairi says “You win level 2 and 3 as long as you don't get hit by her Q and she doesn't have Conqueror. One tip to dodge her Q is to go in front of her since it's a crescent-shaped skillshot. ”
SkellyBirb says “Diana can be a big threat because of how much damage she can do. You have to be careful with your shield, as she might be able to burst you down even if one of her abilities doesn't deal damage. Use your range advantage and shield her poke early, but be careful once she hits 6.”
TheHostileCat says “Diana is hard, no lies. If she's good she can spam q-e-w and just keep chunking your health. Her empower autos are better, her tower damage and monster damage even more so and her ult can be easily used in teamfights, more effective than yours at times. Stomp her early if possible, get jg help. ”
KASSAW1N says “Kass vs diana: Es importante que antes de entrarle tienes que tener en cuenta que gaste ella el escudo y la Q para que no utilice la doble E y todo su daño. Ah, y no gastes tu Q , úsala cuando suelte su R (y maxeala de segundas) y así mitigar su daño (compra eco de luden) ”
PrimeRex226 says “Keep in mind her ult , when she goes for an all-in you can try and just ult out of it and then go for her or you can flash out of her ult.”
Splaty says “Her Q will kill you alone so try not to fight pre 6 and try to kill her with your jungler so you don't risk yourself dieing. Just build a very big wave when she goes in you kill her”
ezmod66 says “This can be considered major to extreme. If you are not careful with your positioning she will poke you down easily.
Her burst is crazy if she gets the q on you. Can double dash so care. at 6 if you miss step you are generally dead if you are don't have your wave frozen.
She can push a wave really easily and dodge ur q with her e. once she gets her first pack she will perma force push you in and roam. Ward river and spam ping your team mates.
In team fights Play the role of cockblocker and zone with your r while staying out of range of danger.
focus on freezing wave the best you can. cs like a champ call for jungle help. God help you :)
Matchup Difficulty: Painful.”
KatarinaScriptz says “She wins if you let her Q you many times, she does out poke you. To counter this I would say try to play it safer and go in when you can proc your Electrocute.”
Dr Eggmund says “Can counter you very hard as Vladimir, have had lot's of trouble against this matchup as she has the CC that can kill you before you do anything to Diana. Farm and play smartly, you should be fine at 6 with an all in however be cautious at all times. Rush spirit visage if you aren't confident and farm with increased heal until you are stronger.”
Tortoise_Maniac says “- Absorb her burst with your W when trading
- You win trades hard when she doesn't have her W
- Push the wave and look for jungle 2v2's
- She spikes harder than you at level 6 so be careful
- Outroam her”
Big Shawn says “In the current patch, Diana is hard to face. She is a 1v1 master, just like Sett on the Top Lane basically. She is winnable if you manage to out-trade her early game. She will be out-tradable late game too, but she'll have damage too.”
Noodles912 says “This is the strongest mid laner since her rework. Play safe pre 6. After 6, save ult to escape her ult. Dodging her Q is key to winning, but it has a broken hitbox. Recall if you are low, and take TP. You outscale, and remember to walk opposite to the Q.”
ThePandaEvan says “Its mostly okay until after 6. Play safe and try your best to not get hit by her Q as she will most likely dash to you. Level 2/3 depending on when she levels her dash is a powerspike for her. ”
BCota says “Annoying af you can actually take cull or DRing into this matchup and perma farm or trade. Her early trades beat yours but you heal so you win either way. After large rod you just barely beat her wait for 6 and poke her as much as possible then one shot combo and look to push wave and roam after you back”
JustGalaxy06 says “She has a powerfull burst + shield and she can poke you with her q very easy . Just dodge her q-s and she won't be able to fight you 1v1”
Noodles912 says “She's tanky and has cc. She beats you in extended trades, so go in, poke, and get out ASAP. When she is level 3, back off if she hits you with Q. Try to look for roams, by shoving first. If she wastes W or E, this is your time to punish. ”
Dafioske says “O es banearla o ganarle 2 Killers y apresurar el ítem mordedura de serpiente y fauces antimagis porque sino o gankear o te mata en línea no le podés hacer un 1 vs 1 por su escudo y si es que ganas el jungla te gankear o ella en late e su punto más fuerte”
Niqkl says “Diana depends on how good the player is, but generally speaking, she can negate a lot of damage with her W, and you need to watch out for her level 6 all in! If youre unfortunate enough to get jumped on, try to pool the ult damage when it comes down.”
FalleN3 says “Poke Diana as much as you can in lane, use your AA and/or (Q) whenever she comes up and tries to last hit a minion. By bullying her early in lane you can force her to have to last hit minions with her (Q) which will blow through her mana.
Try to keep your stun ready or almost ready (x3 stacks or so) at times that she might go for an all-in on you.
If you have your stun available, you should be able to burst her down and survive. If you don't have a stun, she will likely kill you. ”
SkellyBirb says “Diana can dash in and one shot you. This can be a huge issue, but you can poke her down or burst her with your ulti. She can snowball hard if she gains a lead early.”
PROJECT BZ says “Diana can absorb a lot damage from Zed with her W shielding. She can also jump into you and do a lot of damage if you dont respect her. Shes quite easily beatable in a neutral state as zed can avoid so much of diana's kit but she is annoying to kill really.”
peytonqt says “ANNOYING LANE
RUNES: Conq/Aery/PR
Dodge her Q and she can't reliable dive you. However, the main thing you're looking for is her W, her shield. If she uses it, you have a window to engage on her. However, if she never uses her W without engaging, you can't do much. Just sit back and relax. Be prepared to Hammer Form E her back if she dashes to you. ”
vCraze says “Diana is a very tough matchup for Xerath as she always has a way to get onto you. If you can manage to poke her early you may be able to take advantage but it is best to play safe and try to scale without giving early kills. ”
Last Roar says “Her dmg early isnt amazing, but at the same time, you won't beat her, because of her shield. You can outroam her, her clear is decent so you still need to be weary. The main disadvantage of Diana, is her passive relies on her to spam abilities, and she doesn't have much mana. So you can force her to waste her mana on clearing and when shes low mana you can win an all in. If you can go even on trades you can heal whereas she cant.
/
/
/
Obj: Clear waves fast, so she wastes mana. can trade early but avoid her post-6. Push and outroam her after 6.”
OxiteoMyst says “This is like a zed that actually scales and is ap. Try to poke her out of lane and keep out of her E range as best you can. And dont get hit by her Q alot. If she hops onto you just phase rush out. If she gets on you place your W infront of you and run into it. You can also just place it on top of yourself if she doesnt have flash.”
SkellyBirb says “Diana can do quite a bit of burst damage early on if she jumps on you. You might need to build Verdant Barrier if you're struggling against her.”
Sadkid says “This is a funny matchup. She can E onto you early but if she has no ult she is usuless. Keep in mind the interaction between your ultis. If you time it right you can portal jump when she ultis down and you will dodge the damage and likely win the trade. She is suspiciously tanky as well so don't get baited most times she will take more than one combo to kill. ”
Katfire says “Diana has always been considered one of Katarina's hardest match ups.
She isn't as oppressive in the early levels now as she used to be so try to poke her down with Q and maybe kill her before 6, but take care after level 6. You can't really afford to press R when her R is up because she can cancel yours with hers. Even from behind, once she gets her core items she will be quite strong in teamfights. Respect her damage and shield.”
PedrinhoXD says “this used to be one of the hardest matchups, but this build gives tf means to run away from her as soon as you see her intending to engage you”
WolfRider01 says “Matchup goes either way. If you are caught by Diana's all in potential, you will likely lose. If you are losing lane, take hex drinker before noonquiver. I suggest you try and poke her, along with attempt to drain her mana. Once she is low on mana she is fairly easy to take out.”
Lavishmouse1032 says “stay out of range of her poke and keep poking her. Watch out for her ult if she gets it and the enemy jg is near or if their in the lane when it happens you as good as dead”
Hqzz says “Diana can be extremely aggressive with you throughout the entire laning phase. Your short range will make it hard to trade, and come out on top. Do not try and fight when she has ult up. Playing safe will allow you to scale and eventually be able to beat her. ”
Cap Jack says “Super annoying matchup. If you can get an early lead to can outplay her, also you are stronger than her when full build. post 6 to level 16 can be hell if she gets ahead.”
MagicalFartz1 says “Aery(or Electro) with ignite. Always stand outside the wave to make her choose to either waste her Q on CS or harsh. You can easily harsh her out of lane with Aery and Q. If she E's on to you E her and wait for her shield to go down then land your Q. You can doge her R with your R.”
MartyBG says “Skill based matchup. Try to poke her as much as possible pre lvl 6. As long as she gets her items its gonna be almost impossible to solo kill her.”
White Cr0w says “Epicly weak in first minutes. try to kill her at lvl 2 on his red/blue (second buff). Then just camp her over and over. She can't clear drake fast, so be sure you secure it too.
Is very hard for a [[Diana]]to get back into a game if behind, so keep camping her and ward her jungle.”
economistastonks says “She is a though match up, generally a losing one. Her skills can hit you from far away and CC you into her.
This lane is an go in and go out constantly if you want to be even or winning. ”
Bobbab says “Shields. Dashes. Displacement. Poke. Diana beats you in all of these cases. Her Q does more damage most of the game she can shield your all in to come out victorious and she can engage on you when you have no shunpo. This matchup is very hard on the kat. Call for ganks, roam or dodge.”
JoshAy says “Her level 3 and 6 powerspike are strong but your powerspike at 6 is strong as well. Avoid her Q poke. Try and trade when her W is down if you can. If you get caught in her ult try and hit E2 or W to survive. Very good ult to steal. Play safe early. ”
MetaKnight13373 says “When Diana Dashes to you, you have a small window to charm her this prevents her from nuking you and also will chunk her for a ton. Most Dianas will be hesitant to go in on you unless you are marked this gives you a pretty clear indicator as to when she will engage. You can also use your ultimate to dash out of range of hers, and negate the damage. ”
NightSoar says “Basicly she counters you in all but two ways.
1. she uses mana and can run out quickly if you dodge her Qs
2. You can roam more effectively.
DON'T FIGHT HER. :)
”
Manzey says “Diana can not do anything pre-6, this is your opportunity to get ahead, once level 6, she can 100-0 you fairly easy if she hits a Q. Get flask for starting item as she will poke you with her Q. Get an Abyssal if not ahead in early game.”
Raigiku says “She has a lot of burst and range, sometimes as Heimerdinger you will need to get hit and get close if you want to hit the grenade, but against Diana it isn't recommended, you could kill her but also get killed at the same time. You can use run exhaust to make the matchup easier.”
TheFwnK says “Annoying with her pokes. Try to kill her before she reaches level 6. Or talk to your jungler to gank more on your lane and she will be 0.”
neverwanted2be says “The goal here 2 make a trade with ur "E" and make her lose her lose her "W". She ll try to poke u with her "Q" so FF+Domination is a cool choice. Her lvl6 procast is still very strong so when she reach lvl6 be caution.”
Grayified says “Diana is a very mobile AP assassin, similar to Akali. If you slowly poke and keep your distance while dodging her poke, you have a good shot at winning. ”
BreeAWT says “A diana pré rework era uma ameaça maior pra Katarina, agora ela só consegue cancelar sua ultimate com a ultimate dela e ela não tem toda hora então ficou relativamente mais fácil de se jogar contra”
Daeydark says “If you can side-step her Q and poke with W, you will have a very easy time in the lane. However, if she manages to land a lot of her Q's on you and you're forced under tower, then you're not going to win for the most part. ”
aL3x888 says “Diana is storng against Zed if she gets ahead, Poke her and Trade when her W is down, and R when her second part of R comes down so u can dodge the dmg.”
Nazrat says “As soon as she gets level 6 she can just run you down with her ultimate. With the new protobelt build she is even stronger and has a lot more movement speed to run you down. Use your range early on as your advantage and play safe after level 6. You almost never win a fair 1v1 with Diana as Orianna.”
KormitLeFrag says “She throws her bendy thing out before teleporting to you and basically killing you.
Zone her from the wave and deny her farm. if she misses Q you can punish her before it comes back in 2 seconds, if she hits then I am sorry for your loss.”
Yeager says “You're just a better version of Diana, which is also why she's never picked anymore. Just be careful of her burst and back off if you get hit by her Q when she's 6.
Push the waves and roam, her waveclear is bad compared to yours. ”
elnino9 says “Take advantage of her shield cooldown, she won't be able to defend off your damage. Setup Q dagger while she's farming. Know the pattern of dodging Diana's Q. Don't go for extended trades, know when to back out as her auto attacks will out trade you because of her passive. After she hits level 6, don't get hit by Q or she'll simply out-damage you hard. Don't use ult until she uses her E.”
FalleN3 says “Because Dianna is a melee champion it's possible for you to make things difficult for her in the early levels. You should try your best to zone her with your ball as much as possible and every opportunity you get, hit her with an AA. After level 6, Diana will become a handful to play against so make sure to use the early levels to deny her as much CS as possible and therefore delaying her items. She has no real escape so is susceptible to ganks, take advantage of this and call for jungle help if she overextends. Rod of Ages is a solid first item against Diana. You should take Barrier or Exhaust as your summoner.”
PH45 says “You can poke her down early but after 6 she can just all in you most of the time. Get some magic resist and play it safe unless you are really ahead.”
Lunasta says “Study how to avoid her Q and you'll win, if she dashes to you without hitting her Q, just dash through her, you'll get out of her ultimate range and there's nothing she can do about it since her E is now on CD, Don't get near if she got her W up”
TheCatOfCheshire says “Pre 6, you have to harass her with AA, poke her with Q, but don't use your spells in her shield, your mana is precious.If you manage to get 6 before her, use it to engage and kill her. If not, wait under tower a bit to avoid the OS. Both of you are good roamers but her wave clear is a bit faster than yours so try to push a bit more to stay even. Follow her roam, but don't approach bushes if you don't have vision.”
AP WormMaW Mid says “Even though Diana has pretty strong assasination potential, pre-6 you can freely harass her and abuse the fact that she is melee. After 6 its a bit harder, but if you keep your distance from her and harass her, it's not too hard to deal with her. Just don't try to be a hero and buy that MR against her.”
Twitch.Tv-LimitBreaker88 says “Easy to gank, easy to punish early. But be carefull at 6 and make sure you dodge her Q. Once you do, you have about 5 sec of free harass. You can try to bait her into an all in and shuffle her into your tower. Play agrro pre6 and then play a bit more cautious and ask for ganks.
It's all about dodging her Q”
Frixen says “Diana is quite difficult but not unmanageable. Do not all in her at any costs, try to push her in, and look to get out of the lane. You can't win any all-ins, so the only trades you should be doing is short pokes and kites.”
FalleN3 says “Nightmare match-up! She has a shield, she get really tanky and once she hits level 6 you are in for a real tough time. You will have to dodge her (Q) during trades in order to negate some of her damage. Use your mobility to your advantage and try to out-roam her and get picks around the map. Farm as much as possible but be aware, this is a TOUGH match-up!”
FalleN3 says “Very hard counter for you as Akali. If the Diana is anywhere near decent this is going to be painful. She can easily out-trade you and she gets tanky too. She has a shield, she get really tanky and once she hits level 6 you are in for a real tough time. You will have to dodge her (Q) during trades in order to negate some of her damage. Use your mobility to your advantage and try to out-roam her and get picks around the map. Farm as much as possible but be aware, this is a TOUGH match-up!”
Bouhhsolene says “Diana is quite free pre 6, but it start getting harder level 6. Against Diana, you should try to poke her with comet, and eventually aim for a kill pre 6, but be careful of her jungler. Once you get to level 6, farm, and get vision in the river to avoid your team to die to her roams. Play under turret and wait for ganks.
You have around the same impact in teamfights, except she can put her damage more easily than you can.”
Faithyatta says “A skill matchup slightly in her favor.
Try to use your Miasma (W) every time she throws out her Q on you. This way she cannot immediately use her dash to get to you. This can be difficult to predict, though, given that her Q E can come out a lot faster than your W. ”
ILuvLube says “Diana is extremely dangerous for yas her q has longer poke, so she can poke you alot and its not worth windwalling it because her q has low cd. Once you have low enough health she can just go Q,E,W,R and you're fucked so play safe, and ask for ganks.”
Reason97 says “Man, did that rework do wonders for diana. She's a hard threat to deal with now that she can jump around a lot earlier in the game, and she has TON'S of burst. Be wary of her poke ability, as if it hit's that's a free dash for her, which means even if you get away from her she still has her dash to get right back on you a second time. If she get's on you and full combo's you, you just lose, it's pretty much as simple as that. So, don't give her that chance. Respect her poke range, respect her presence, and don't give her a chance to jump on you. ”
xAsuta says “Skill matchup. She is not that good early so your trades and all ins should destroy her. Don't let her poke you too much and respect her r.”
BloooodTV says “D-Blade. This match up isn't that hard, she can't really all in Pre-6 and even then if you have nado you can just R her and she can't continue. Outscales you. Take Fleet or Conq (Depends on team comp).”
Fadedreformed says “Pretty even if you don't die pre 6 then you just outscale her. Do not be greedy about cs at the start since she can chunk quite a bit of your hp with her combo if she hits q on you. ”
Shock_101 says “Dont ask for jg help post-6. She will turn the gank 100% of the time. Dodge her qs and be careful when she has ult. Go in pre-6 and get ahead in farm.”
DaggerTV_ says “Diana is a major threat at all stages of the game, she can canel your ult with hers, gets shield, and can outdash you if she plays well. Be very safe and dont fight her unless you are 100% sure you will win.”
Kaiev says “It depends on skill level for this. Land your e q auto for proct electrocute and half her hp down. Dodge her q because she can shred you hard. ”
Yuki H. says “Any melee matchups are easier to deal with, especially assassins who spikes at level 6. Zed does too, which allows him to create tempo for mid lane over Diana. However, pre 6, her DPS is greater if she lands her Q onto you as she can E twice (her old ult), and use her shield to soak damage while dealing more herself. Don't attempt to trade if she lands a Q on you, as she will most likely out trade you unless you happen to land double shuriken and e. Try to see if they have a hard time CSing under tower; if they do, you can keep shoving the lane in while poking with Q. Conversely, if they seem to be knowledgeable enough to CS under tower well, slow push the wave or freeze immediately. If shoving, always make sure to have your W up for escapes or possibly turning a 1v2. Always try to dodge Diana Q/E with your W/R since this creates a massive dip in her dps, allowing you to come out ahead. Respect her burst as her Q -> E -> E combined with ult and aas can pretty much take you down. ”
stziswhatihave says “If you know what you are doing, this matchup shouldn't be too hard.”
Heimerdinger by stziswhatihave | Heimerdinger Player
Proma says “Dshield
This is a very hard matchup. She has damage, attack speed, a shield and the ability to stick on you.
Very hard to get effect trades on her.
Rush tiamat and look for roams when possible.”
Chiefsnake says “Her being able to dash in on you make it very difficult to deal with especially with how much damage she deals. Post 6 if she dashes in on you, you'll want to ult her away if she ults or flash out of it”
Veralion says “HoB/Long sword. Diana's rework was actually one of the better things Riot's done in the last few years. I'm actually amazed! THEY DID SOMETHING GOOD! It was a stroke of genius to simply swap her E and R. Now she has mobility for playmaking and an ultimate that feels, well, like an ultimate. But in exchange, they cut a significant amount of power from her early game, particularly her W, so now we can actually fight her! She has more options, feels better to play, and is less stat checky and more approachable! I love it! Her Q arcs from her right side, so juke to her left and move forward to dodge if you aren't looking to trade. It will take some getting used to. Once she chooses to engage on you, and she will, simply put her in her place. You outtrade the hell out of her. Her new ult scales based on per target hit and is not a big deal in a 1v1 setting. Engage and smash her at will post-6. ”
Grimkyle says “Diana is a major threat to fizz because she automatiaclly wins trades with melee due to her W her q plus e all in with conq start E and farm with that early and then all in her with with ult and save your e to trump her ult ”
RikudouDovahkiin says “Her burst damage is noticeable and terrible when you do not have any magic resistance, but your sustain is kinda outmatched in this 1v1 scenario. Don't give her free scores and try to focus her in team fights for her low range is an advantage for you (despite the cost of additional MR she can get), also she can utilise chances given and eliminate your squishy teammates easily, so unless she's totally useless in teamfights, don't give her a chance of easy kills, cuz her damage hurt in late game (since she's also an ability spammer). ”
lessbedone says “Even tho she isn't as much of a threath like Teemo I still have to give her a "Major" status of danger. Her ult is the only dangerous thing, otherwise you will outdamage/outheal her.”
Nooldles says “Same with Zed but a bit more rough early into the game just because her Q is easier to land than Zed's Q. Saving W as a threat only used when she goes in first is the key in these assassin matchups. When facing a Sylas you hate when they don't use their W because they can use it to negate your damage when you go in and deal damage to you. However if you as the Sylas use the W on minions or full hp, the Diana or any assassin tbh has quite high kill threat onto you while your W is on cooldown.”
ai darkfluid says “If you know her kit and they know your kit, Viktor should win through poking in lane. Poke to gain an advantage, then either all-in of safe-farm. After lane phase, match her dash with stun field and ult, then Q out of her range so she can't follow as easily. Make sure not to leave your stun field as she can commit to a dash out to a target stun field's radius.
Preferred rune: Summon Aery/Electrocute”
Raiiny says “She is quite powerful. She has a dash same as your leap and can get easily close. She has a shield/3 orbs. She is a bit more range. Easily one shots you if gets 2 items or 1. ”
Brentonlop says “Diana is very annoying with her constant Qs and her huge gap closer. Use your range to an advantage and bully her with auto attacks pre level 3.”
Dzsuz says “Its a hard lane until level 6 after that u can all in her and have a big chance to win against her. Until level 6 try to farm and avoid fighting.”
Iruminati says “She deal more damage than you, can stop your ulti with her ult.
You can trade her in early but after level 6 and firsts back, it will be very complicated.
Elle tape plus fort que vous et peut stopper votre ulti avec le sien.
Vous pouvez tenter de la tuer en early mais après les premiers back et le niveau 6, ca va être très compliqué.”
snukumz says “You can farm safe against her, or try to poke her down.
Her poke is hard to dodge in my opinion because of the curve, kind of like Vel'koz Q geometry.
She will shit on you if she gets on top of you so keep your distance or just play safe.
You win teamfights. ”
GrayRiver says “"Very hard counter for you as Akali. If the Diana is anywhere near decent this is going to be painful. She can easily out-trade you and she gets tanky too. She has a shield, she get really tanky and once she hits level 6 you are in for a real tough time. You will have to dodge her (Q) during trades in order to negate some of her damage. Use your mobility to your advantage and try to out-roam her and get picks around the map. Farm as much as possible but be aware, this is a TOUGH match-up!" FalleN3”
1256 says “she goes for phase/electro=ez win you outscale after 6, she goes for conq you outscale after 11 and lose fights before, play it smart and around short trades
fleet+dom, electro if confident”
AZIR MEN says “Very strong champion right now, but not a hard matchup. Respect her Q as it's basically the only way that she will get on top of you. Remember that her dash resets if she gets a lunar thing from you.
Take conq or elec.”
LightningTemplar says “Diana is very strong in her current state, with the biggest issue being her tankyness. She has always been a strong counter to Zed, but with her mini rework she is actually threatening pre 6 as well. However, it is still winnable. Any decent Diana player will start W againsts Zed, if she starts Q you'll wanna walk in melee range and trade as much as you manage as your basic attacks + Q do more dmg than her basic attacks + Q at lvl 1. Avoid trading when her W shield is up. At distance, juke counterclockwise and inward from Diana. This will cause her to miss her Q. ”
LizzyElune says “match de skill.
en general muy parejo, evitar su Q a toda costa y jugar lejos de minions te da ventaja, si se tira, esperar al pull de su R y despues usar todas tus habilidades para matarla.”
PepeOnDrugs says “Very hard counter for you as Akali. If the Diana is anywhere near decent this is going to be painful. She can easily out-trade you and she gets tanky too. She has a shield, she get really tanky and once she hits level 6 you are in for a real tough time. You will have to dodge her (Q) during trades in order to negate some of her damage. Use your mobility to your advantage and try to out-roam her and get picks around the map. Farm as much as possible but be aware, this is a TOUGH match-up!
”
SimonNGarfunkel says “Another balanced work of Riot. With conqueror you can actually goes for extended trade vs Diana. Just hit your poke Qs and dodge all her Qs /s. At lv6 both can kill each other, but don't engage alone. Wait for ganks and engage first and ult her ult.”
JustAF0x says “She can burst and trade you very easily so be careful I dont ban her and i usually ask my jungler or someone of my teammates to ban her.”
evilforreal says “Pre-6 you can do great harass against Diana. Use RQ to poke her, and when she dives you, Hail of Blades/tether allows you to lock her down for more punishment.
After 6, don't try to 1v1 unless you have Zhonyas to dodge her ultimate.”
KataFlix says “Diana is a simple champ to kill, but what makes her a threat is her level, the more level she is the bigger chance for you to get killed by Diana, Diana will attack you and wait for your ultimate, as soon as you use your R she R as well to cancel it”
Debonair Karma says “Very hard matchup. Her shield blocks a lot of your poke early on so you won't push her out of lane that easily. Try to shove the wave and poke her under tower. After 6 stay away and ask for ganks. Ward botside, don't let her roam. Take barrier or teleport. Go ROA+Seraphs.”
Gageowago says “[9.24] Diana can now all in you at level 3, I'm not sure about her damage being able to one shot but she can for sure chunk the hell out of you. Avoid her Q as much as possible, and avoid her shield orbs if she goes in on you. Post 6 make sure you and your team do not group up closely (similar to vs Orianna) because Diana's new ult is literally just a more powerful Orianna ult and does more damage the more people caught in it. Before level 8 you can win trades with her for 15 seconds after she uses her shield. You can bait her to dash onto you if she lands her Q ability. If you are fast enough you can charm her dash and negate her damage entirely.”
BigFatCat909 says “I almost Perma Ban this champion. If you're up against Diana, it is possible to win but if she is smart enough to get Seekers Tabis, then there is 0 hope unless you have Conq and even then it's not a fun experience.”
topal says “even though she seems easy she is way to strong at the moment and you should respect her.the muchup is a bit favourable for you but again it's very hard to comeback if y make a single msitake.”
YunaDragoon says “Watch out for her abilities, try to dodge them. When she uses her shield she's strong against you, when not try to kill her if possible. Early game watch out for her shield if she uses shield and it's gone you have an opening. Try to kill her early around lvl 2 because of your all in potential with (W > Q > Auto > Ignite) if you can't kill her then just bait her and make her over extend (Try to get jng to gank you to kill Diana)”
Papapostolou says “You can dodge her R with your W (Sanguine pool), But still don't understimate her damage and her all in, she is strong after the rework so yeah. Care”
subwrxpotato says “People who play this champ are usually crutching hard on how easy she is. She has multiple dashes to get on you so max E to dash away.”
Kataspina says “Pretty hard matchup because the new Diana is broken. Conqueror with sorcery second and get nullifying orb. Rush hexdrinker and then diana becomes pretty easy to deal with.”
Lil Tidepod says “Diana can be really strong in lane against Ryze but she just doesn't have the range to kill him early on. Look out for her ultimate, as it can one shot you. Dodge her crescent strike and this lane is an easy win. If you fail to dodge it, however, be very careful, because she can all in you easily and deal enough damage to kill you instantly. Push her under turret and roam if you can't manage to kill her.”
Fhizzikx says “Pre6 you can play more aggro since she can't all in you yet. Be careful of getting hit by her q too many times because she can all in if you're below 50% hp. Once she hits 6 then she has kill pressure on you so if you get hit by her r make sure to flash the second part of her ult if you want to survive.”
JacWilly says “her w makes you do no poke damage, try to roam and get ahead, if you get ahead you will beat her, her waveclear will make it harder to roam and will punish you for roaming.”
Capparelli says “You kill her early with a good jungle gank and her game is over, she kills you early and yours is, Tiamat if winning, Hexdrinker if losing, engage the second her W shield runs out and just use your root to try and stop some of her burst ”
Giurg says “Strong engage. You want to avoid her Q and poke her until she's about half life. Pay attention to her ult since she can easily turn your engage to her favour with an R.”
tah11r says “U win first 3 levels, then she rushes seekers u can never kill her. In that case buy mobility boots right after tiamat and roam as much as you can.”
MartinMorningstar says “Ban worthy.
Better at teamfights than you. Can kill you before your ultimate stuns. Massive damage, very tanky, very mobile and typically goes conqueror.
Roam or ask for ganks. You normally dont win lane against her. ”
serruh says “try to root her in your minion wave and pray. this champion needs hard nerfs, you cannot play vs her at any point in the game(especially in sidelane). would recommend banning as well”
Kami_EU says “Even skill matchup.
The longer the game goes, the easier it is for you to 1v1 her, since after Wit's End and Mercury's Treads/Ninja Tabi's you will creatly outsustain her in longer trades.
Short trades, especially in early game are in favour of Diana.
”
The Venerable Racoon says “Takes some getting used to dodging the crescent, its hitbox is bigger than the animation. Her all in is very strong, poke for souls, and get banshee”
Inscaped says “Fat, engaging piece of self-hatred. Diana players do not like themselves and neither should you like them.
ALWAYS throw an E if it looks like she's about to jump, you'll never react fast enough and her jump is faster than your E cast time.
She hits her Q - roll your E immediately! They will not hesitate and you better not to.”
Polygon XVI says “Diana has high burst and can dash onto you with her Q>E combo and can easily burst you down. This match up requires a lot of patience early on, so farm from a safe distance with your W and you want to match her farm lane but you don't want to be close in reach to your own tower.”
PrettyPinkPutin says “Diana is in a very strong state since her mini rework and you should be wary of that, R her R as it's a big damage tool of hers, she has good burst, DPS and tankyness so don't overcommit since she can punish a bad engage of yours with her up to 3 dashes.”
ur_mom_gay says “Kind of a bad matchup for Zed. Her W shield can negate a lot of damage, so don't expect to out trade her unless it is on cooldown. After the rework you can dodge her R with your R or a shadow, so you can maybe win fights after level 6. She'll most likely have control of the lane unless you get a lead. Careful in teamfights to not get AOE'd by her ult, as you will most likely get forced out of the fight.”
chrisloths says “She's a really annoying matchup. Her Q is low cooldown, low mana, and really easy to land. Zyra can trap her and follow up with Q to poke her, however a full-engage Diana can be really dangerous. Like most assassins, Zyra's best option is to place plants and her ultimate on top of her to counter their engage.”
Sloyr says “Diana is really strong, her trading potential with her basic combo QEW is really high. She will always beat you in 1v1 (not if she trolls) so you'll have to roam and wait for teamfights to get some kills.”
Yas Yasu Yasuo says “Even matchup, whoever gets a kill first wins the lane. If she gets a kill first, you would really want to rush Hexdrinker. CAREFUL FOR HER LEVEL 6.”
Eccentricks says “I had her as 4, but since Diana is more widely played, she is a large threat to low elo, and is now a 5...
The ult is deceptively good. I recommend playing safe until you can get it. Only go for Melee creeps with your AA, use Q on the others and try to stay out of the wave from her Q.
You will want to steal her ult and hold it as a threat. A good Diana player will respect it and back off, allowing more lee-way in farming.
A bad Diana will dive into you with her E and suicide because you will pop your ult and pull her into turret, either killing her or forcing a back. Try to bait this out.
You will want to play the lane safe and snowball off a kill.”
ekkologix says “This requires A lot of skills ,she is a all-in champion ,and very weak when behind so any decent jungler knows you need early advantage,but to be sure ask for early gank.”
waggles says “This champion goes 50/50 with Yasuo but if she is to be ahead at all she will insta kill you due to her kit, this means it is crucial to put her behind in the early game.”
8wolf says “She used to be a slightly smaller danger before her rework. Now, since she doesn't have to wait until 6 for her engage combo, she is much harder to play against. Poke her from a distance and always keep a w stack and the e ready to disengage at a moment's notice.”
Daedralus says “Can be a little tough due to her shield and auto attack capabilities along with her insane Q + Ult damage, but until 6, you definitely have the advantage. Be smart, do not extend fights too much as she is also good at those and look for thunderlord procs + Q heals and then to go back to safety. Ulting her as she is eluting will significantly counter her as she will lose her Ult cool down reset as well.”
MrRiots says “Starting Item: Dorans + Potion
After Lvl 6 you have 2% chance to win lane. Im sorry.
distance is the key. Save your E until she Ults you. Punish her and move away.”
HeziEune says “You can somewhat contest her in a long trade early on, especially with conqueror. (unless she has it too) Get hexdrinker. If she engages onto you, do not be afraid to trade back, you can't let her get free trades. Walk into the middle of her Q curve to try to dodge it.”
Tehqo says “Ever since patch 7.19, your ult can be dashed over, which makes her more of a threat. She has a lot of mobility, and once you waste your Q, she can all in you. You want to push lane and abuse her pre-6. And just hope you get a significant advantage. If near your turret and she goes in, ULT HER towards your turret.”
NebuIa says “Diana is very scary. But, there is counterplay. She will be very close to you so bubbles are easy to hit. When she ults you, try to R away from it a split second after she pulls you in to avoid the damage. Phase rush may help a lot.”
TheBlueImperial says “Personally, I perma-ban this champion because she is ridiculously strong at the moment and counters Galio. If against her don't try trading just shove and roam. ”
Je Suis Azir says “She is pretty fucking annoying. If you don'y punish her early, and your jungler doesn't help, and HER jungler fucks with you, you can be in trouble. Essentially, pre level 6, you need to fuck with her as much as you can, and dodge her Qs. If you do those two things, you can win lane. Pretty even matchup in lane, but her kill potential is higher earlier on, be careful.”
DirtyBellyDC says “If Diana hits you with a Q, be ready E on yourself to prevent her from bursting you down.
Avoid her Q's and you should win. Watch out for protobelt dashes followed up by her Q.
Ping your team if Diana goes MIA as she will snowball hard if she gets fed off a roam or two.”
UroKuro says “Diana is just so dumb right now, she can get on top of you and just lock you down, and with that lock down on you you won't be able to move or dash thus leading you to die. ”
Impswitch says “you can bully her pretty hard early and roam since her wave clear isnt the greatest when she is getting smacked. dont let her just stand in minons and push for free! 6 just ult and win :p”
Dgraider says “Take comet into this and you'll win everything early without trouble(electrocute will also work but will fall off earlier). Don't let her scale”
GalioPlayer says “Diana is a big issue but with an aggressive level 2 to 4 you can win this lane in early ( late is still lost but you have equally good teamfights so it makes up for that )”
LightningDeceptigon says “Her shield makes her hard to kill and she's pretty much a great pick into most melees. She has incredible burst damage as well as sustained damage from her passive and low cds, so try to all-in her when she's low or when her abilities are on cd.”
cobbzy says “Diana is a really difficult champion to play against in lane. Mostly you're looking to trade when she uses her Q to poke. Pre lvl 6 you have the advantage if you're up a level, make sure to punish them on this when they are trying to farm. Take doran's sheild, make sure to roam so you aren't too far behind her. ”
matijez says “diana is a grat dueler if she gets near you you will be probably dead so all you got to do is stand near turrent and if she wnts to allin in you slow her with E and W and go under the turret”
vaske_lol says “She is very strong at all points of the game. She outbursts you early and typically wins fights unless you are able to use your R to escape her R damage. Pre 6, diana is easy to bait for your jungle. If you get hit by a Q, she will jump onto you and have no defensive gap-closer to escape the incoming gank. Let your jungler know this!”
Aizenvolt says “Its a hard matchup in lane pre and after 6, late game you have her. Be carefull for her shield when you want to go in because it can absorb quite alot of damge also her q can give her free ult so try to avoid it and if you didnt blink out unless you are sure you can take her.”
psychopath midlane says “Same as fizz, but she is more tanky, you can fight her but you will have to outplay her alot, try to get help from jgler if its not possible, just farm and try to use your Wind wall if she tries in fights to throw her Q, same goes on lane.”
lewdog says “Diana does a lot of damage with her q e and even has a shield to negate your damage if you try to return damage. Her ult is strong atm so try not to engage on her post 6 unless she is low. Look for roams to try and get kills.”
LONERlSM says “With the new rework most of the Dianas I faced go tanker look to out scale her with csing evenly and trying to get short trades in lane. Rylias 2nd item”
N1VA says “Dianas Ability to harass Anivia early can slow down your item progression throughout the game. Dianas mobility with her consecutive dashes makes it difficult to land your slow moving stun ability. Match that with a well timed Diana Ultimate and she will cancel Anivia's Ultimate Cast. This leaves Anivia vulnerable while her abilities are on cooldown.”
DravensBukkake says “Ignite/TP matchup
Treat her like Ekko or Kat, except insanely aggro pre 6 and passive post 6. AA when she goes for cs/whenever you can, harass her, etc.
”
Mid Win Repeat says “Pre 6 you can stomp her. With jungle help you can stomp her hard enough that shes useless the rest of the game. She does hit quite the power spike at level 6 though just cast your E-Q as she dashes in and W her once she uses her second ult. ”
SupaSnor says “New diana might be a problem, but if she fks up her combo she has a 20+ cd on her E, so thats some easy punishment. After 6 just say: no! when she comes close and blast her away when she tries to ult you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯”
MarkeleleYasuo says “ If you block her Q you will win almost every trade and if you dont you will lose almost every trade, dont fight without windwall and use the E Q W combo while dashing towards her ”
Marumo says “Threat level 9.
After her mini rework in 9.24 I've updated her from a Major to an Extreme threat. She was already a big problem for Veigar, but now she can jump on your before level 6 it's even worse. Be careful and treat her almost like a Fizz.”
Rider0 says “Another terrible matchup for vlad, now more than ever after the recent changes, her lvl 3 all in needs to be respected, again just try to take small trades and force her to waste mana, you will not win 2v2's against her and jungler so just look to farm and scale.”
EvilBird090 says “Diana before level 6 is not much of a threat but already really tanky because of her shield, try to heavily abuse her early game and zone her off CS if possible as you are ranged and she is melee. At level 6 or level 9 (after first back) she will have kill pressure of you, she will be able to win the short trades and the disengage while her shield is up blocking your damage. Her mid game burst on single targets is stronger than yours but you will outscale her starting at level 11.”
Mortal333 says “Has a super strong early game agaisnt veigar.If out of vision has a high chance to one shot veigar. Some ways to counter her is having vision on the map , predict when he's going to engage on you and get her in your E, and use zhonyas the moment she dashes on you.”
Calabeast says “New Diana is a bitch to deal with, now that she can jump on you with E, she pokes you out of lane and can dive you under turret with ease.”
spark2 says “She has no mobility early game and has to farm at melee, which means you should be able to land W's on her relatively easily while she's whacking minions, letting you trade for days. Past 6 you just need to dodge her arcing skillshot, since the reset it gives her ultimate can do huge burst damage if you're not careful.”
Cloud375 says “Until Diana hits level 6, she is not too much of a threat, however, once she hits 6, she will become a major threat. So back off when she hit's level 6 as her difficulty increases from level 6 onwards!”
Ganux says “Diana is really strong in high elo... Im some low elo shitter but still have no problems against her. Keeping my W for her Q is all I do tbh.”
Asothin says “Lots of mobility but if you can dodge her abilities you will be quite safe. Get swiftness boots for dodging skill shots and use W>AA then E>Q>Q>Q combo after you dodge her Q. If she hits, wait till she jumps to you and then W>E>Q>Q>Q whilst kiting.”
IceBite says “Well, you cant trade with her. Her w denies your damage and her Q has higher base damage than yours. she can easily one combo you at 6 so be safe and try to roam much. She can cancel our R with her e.”
paykanishe says “Early levels you can sort of pressure Diana, but a good one will be able to mitigate most of what you do with her shield. If you get enough of a lead pre-6, she shouldn't be a problem. But if she gets ahead at any point, this champion has the serious ability to 1 shot you with just landing a single Q skillshot. With that said, she is overall weak in a team fight setting and just a Banshee Veil should keep you safe. Take exhaust to be safety early.”
YoussefJoe says “Higher Mobility champs causes his/her skills predictions are a little bit harder but you can always land your W at the right spot which he/she would stop by and do your skill order ”
worddog says “She does a lot of damage but so do you. The matchup is skill dependant but Ekko has a higher skill ceiling so if you are very experienced you should always win.”
baldmidget says “1.Make sure you get nullifying orb
2.Make sure to hard shove wave,she win every trades.Except if she q the minion waves,you have a small trade window
3..After tiamat ,make sure to get hex
4. Focus on heavy roaming
5.Try to fake roam at level 6, to make her use q on the minion wave(then just all in her)”
Euphoric Toaster says “You can harass her VERY hard early, to the point where you put her so far back she will struggle to recover unless she picks up a bunch of free kills. With Barrier, Nullifying Orb and the 1 MR rune she should never be able to kill you early on as well so long as you don't fall for cheese all-ins. If she does snowball though, she can very quickly get to the point where she can oneshot, but you have ample time and opportunities to prevent this from happening. In lane, so long as you dodge her Q shes pretty manageable, but if she does get fed a Zhonya's can help delay her attempts to kill you and give time for your team to close in and help (the Zhonyas timing can be pretty precise though, as Diana can 100-0 people pretty quick).”
J Husky says “If she jumps with her ulti, just use E-W to dodge all the burst and deal some damage, you just need to react fast. She pokes you with her Q but you heal so it is not a big deal, remember she is melee.”
xdKami_ says “You should be fine before she hits level 6, when she does care for q - r onto minions then you.
She will start w, so poking her is nearly useless.”
Rubikko says “Poke on lvls 1-5, lvl 6, its a battle of all in, who wins depends on how the game goes, if you're even stay back and farm, if you're ahead, dont be afraid and instantly ult her.”
Big Shawn says “This champ annoys me the most. 1v1ing her is too difficult, the best thing to do in this case is just farm passively and avoid early fights until you have Infinity Edge, your main source of Damage. ”
SeeEl says “Harder than you'd think. Just don't smack him during his shield (w) and build a wave. Respect his level 6 all in as well as his ability to flash e cc you for ganks. Other than that she is a meme champion.”
Big Shawn says “Kennen vs Diana. The amount of damage Diana will have available mid game just indicates already that she has to be deleted from your match by you. Abuse her in early game with your full CC combo to pressure her.”
Fox1ne says “The pre 6 is easy,at the 6th level and after the game changes mostly to her,she can one shot you anytime after 6. So don't underestimate her damage try to harass her early and make roams or catch her up on roams.”
Flimshady says “Will not be a tough fight until diana hits lvl 6. Be carefull and don't stay in danger of her hitting you with Q if you don't have potential to hit a stun on her. What makes Kennen do well vs Diana is your E and passive combo. If she decides to engage you just hit your Q, and E away. This is where it's important to keep track of your W passive, if you have 1 stack on it, you better use your W to stun her.”
hoppyscotch says “Early game diana is like half a champion. You can just bully her in extended trades. You should win most of the time, diana is kinda dog champ.”
ZenonZeni says “Dianna is a scary match up against ahri since she will do more damage then ahri making it hard to trade with her since she has a shield. If you get banshee's you can avoid her only ranged ability. But otherwise just stay under tower just to be safe and wait for a gank.”
Wizboy73 says “take barier, use w when she r's then she dies. even take zonyas if needed to not be blown up. but if you survive her all in the game is yours.”
I Do Not Flame says “She can counter u'r dashes with her E, she can easily poke you and she has a lot of damage with no items.
Just play pasive under tower, wait for a gank and let her use his shield before you go all in”
empoleonz0 says “IMO a skill matchup early on. Both of you have some poke but are weak before Level 6. Post 6 start playing safer as she can most likely one-shot you”
WonderFUllGuy69 says “You will need great timing here, when she jumps to you e in the opposite direction as fast as possible so she doesn't pull you and good luck.”
TruePvPYT says “Depends on the Diana if she knows what she is doing you need to play more safe and wait for you power spike (lvl6) and then engage maybe with your jungler and dont forget to farm alot in this lane, because she will push alot or freeze and deny you cs so you need to make sure you go even or go positive.”
Vispectra says “Where to start with this one , she's not a threat until she hits 6. Early on you'll poke her for free with Q and generally she won't be able to get a kill on you pre-6 , post 6 though her burst is very VERY quick, it often catches people off guard.”
MamaDuck says “Diana is horrible to meet as Talon. You have no way to counter her and as soon as she gets a little ahead she will snowball like crazy. Be prepared for a ton of oneshots under tower.
A good way to counter her is just to farm. Buy Tiamat first item and focus on farm. I would also recommend to roam to other lanes that are winning to get ahead with some easy kills. Whatever you do, DO NOT fight her in a 1v1!”
quinniston says “She destroys squishies, pre 6 you should be able to deal with her, dodge her Q. She will get pretty tanky, avoid 1v1ing her later on also rush hexdrinker. ”
Flexxed says “At level 6 she can oneshot you even if she barely have any items. Her Q is really easy to dodge. abuse her pre 6. After 6 make sure you never get hit by her Q or you are dead.”
Xavier Senori says “Diana's early game against you is really weak because of her lack of range. However, her shield makes it hard to make your damage stick. After she hits 6, she becomes incredibly scary, as her all in hurts a lot. One option is to rush an banshees veil, which will mitigate a lot of her damage, while still allowing you to DPS her down quickly. ”
ClemexD10 says “This will be a burst battle, throw your E when she is approaching you with her R that will avoid her from casting other abilities, then throw all your combo and kill her. I recommend maxing your E before your W since the duration of your charm will be important to survive.”
kilgta says “she pretty much pokes you all game, level 2 to 6, her damage burst is really hard to contain. Pretty much farm till you have ganks/ults. She can also cancel your ult so be careful. You ult her in teamfights. Start corrupt pot.”
MechaaZero says “She's kinda gross to lane against in the sense that her dive is instant and oppressive. Her shield is always bigger than you think it is, and her Q can hurt. Alot. Be careful with this, and consider banning if its one of your worse match-ups.”
maplecat21 says “Diana's weird. It's like her kit is made to be the counter to Anivia, but nobody knows how to play her properly. If she gets a kill, your lane is over, if she knows how to play diana. ”
Altis says “Diana has always been hit or miss with me, so I'll mark her as Even. She can all in you, but if you bait her Q, you can R into E to punish. Very skill-based match-up.”
RagexAddict says “Diana is one of Fizz's hardest counters. She has a shield and pull in with a slow for when you try to attack her and she can be very sticky and hard to keep away from. If you can't all in her early, concede the lane and wait for your jungler or start roaming.”
SrSuders says “Diana ist bekannt als eine Assassine-Conter, das gilt leider auch für Talon.
Aufgrund der Diana W und der Diana E fällt es Talon schwer den Angriffen auszuweichen und selber welche auszuteilen.”
Yegie says “The fact that she has a refresh-able shield hurts your E pretty hard, but she is melee. You should beat her pre-6 and then be careful after unless you manged to completely shut her down.”
LyndonK9 says “I typically find the matchup against Diana super difficult. In fact more difficult than Leblanc. Her shield negates most of your damage and you lose every trade. You're best chances are if you farm and try to dodge her Q. Much like Leblanc, if she Qs you shes going to ult in and you can try to charm her. ”
hipstersora says “Melee and can do nothing pre-6. Q poke her down and kill her. Stomp. Be aggressive. May need MR post-6 to make her not one shot you.”
TotallySugoi says “Be super careful, until level 6 she can't do much, but after she can pop anyone. Always spam ? ping in your lane if she's not there, even if it's a recall, just to be safe. Her roam is insane.”
BenLegend443 says “You need to dodge the curve thingy or you'll get wrecked pretty hard. Her ability to kill is largely centered on that so all you need to do is dodge it.”
MasutaKokoBot says “Diana is a champion who can dive you. Stay safely away from her and use your silence skillfully placed on yourself if she does. Depend on your team and banshees veil to protect you from her.”
SkyLaws says “Diana is a very annoying champ.
Her Q will make your lane sour and past lvl 6, it will be your doom.
Try to bring her down before level 6 and she'll be useless.”
borsamalac says “Dodge his q at early, free AA her if she goes for farm. If she cant land Q on you she cant kill u. Don't waste your W, use it if she lands Q and wants to engage.”
Bughans says “Yikes, hard matchup. Don't get close to her, and just farm. If you get close, she'll draw you in and put that curved scimitar where the sun don't shine. Lategame she's gonna oneshot you as well. Ask for ganks, nonstop.”
Helnakensbrorsa says “Wins both early and late game if you don't get ahead and play smart. Try to do some small trades before lvl 3. If she has her E you lose. If she gets lvl 6 before you, you can't get hit by Q. You are instantly dead. If she miss Q, you can probably do a good trade before she gets her Q up again. But if you get lvl 6 before her, you win every fight. ”
Mern says “Hard because she is tanky. Just play smart, outroam, don't get hit by her spells. Be careful with trades because her shields win all of them early.”
Best Karth NA says “Karthus' worst matchup in my opinion. Post 6 she can chunk you to 25% hp or even kill you if she hits on skillshot(which is ridiculous). You would need to play a very bad Diana player to win the lane. Your best option is to let her shove you in early, and keep the wave frozen towards your turret if possible, while harassing her from a safe range, setting her up for jungler ganks. In this matchup, just look to maximize your gold whenever possible. ”
GlowingIcefire says “These champs are super hard to lane against. Play very safe, be careful, and focus on farming. They include diana, kennen, vladimir, sylas, etc.”
AgreeableOtter says “Rush Hexdrinker and respect her damage output. She has high base HP which makes it hard for you to kill her. Quit trading when she pops W.”
Shderen says “When she builds movement speed items (like Luden's Echo and tier 2 boots) she can pretty much just walk out of a silence post-6, Q, ult and wail on you. Do not throw out silences preemptively unless it's before level 6 or you're oddly confident against a Diana. Post-6 isn't a question of whether you can win, it's often a question of whether you can survive.”
moon827 says “Even though you can root her, Diana can and will burst you down almost instantly. She is extremely difficult to deal with, just be prepared to play reactively”
chillin kenshi says “Cant kill her early cuz of lack of damage. She will quickly out scale you. Her shield blocks too much d,age from you and you wont deal any before she gets her damage.”
SmokeyEggs says “Diana can easily disrupt your engages as well she can push the wave easily, i recommend fighting her as early as possible since a lategame Diana is basically godzilla.”
BicBee says “Bully hard pre 6. Post 6 Ahri can't out run Diana's burst with her ultimate especially if Diana lands Q onto you first because of delay in Ahri's ultimate charges. If Diana lands Q after 6 immediately back off and wait till the Q wears off so she can't ult you twice. If she goes in be careful of her knock up. Diana will usually use E after going in. When Diana ults you up close she will always appear behind you so keep that in mind for charms. Buy early magic null into banshees (replace Zhonya) if having a hard time. ”
Header_FX says “Same as Kassadin. Poke her down and enjoy free lane. Just try to dodge her q´s so she cant double dash onto you. (by moving left you can easily dodge her q, since it can only move left)”
BicBee says “Pre 6 bully her hard. Her Q swings towards her right in an arc. Post 6 if she lands Q onto you back off and wait it off before trading. She can ult you twice if she follows up on that Q. You have no escapes as Ori and she can 1 shot you when she gets items so be very careful when choosing to fight Diana. The ideal time is when she missed her Q or after her Q is worn off of you. When she ults you from close range she will always appear behind you. ”
AzureArmatt says “Diana has one of weirdest skill shot to avoid for new players and on top of that it has low cost and is her main harass tool. if you manage to not get hit by it and pulled towards her with her AoE pull for damage from her shield you win. problem starts after lvl 6 where she will have ability to dash towards you and if you got marked by her Q she will get reset to follow your ultimate dash. Not to mention her burst can really hurt while she will stay safe thanks to her shield so consider buying zhonya to prevent her from burst damage on you”
javimc17 says “She can't do nothing against you. Stay focused on farm and poke her with E. If she engages, use your E+W to survive her combo and kill her easily with your Q+R.”
OmegaSquadVeigar says “Through levels 1-5 it's easy as you can just get free poke on her, although you get pushed in and have no lane priority. After 6, this matchup gets kinda a struggle, watch out for her Q and try to avoid being in range of her R if you don't have her trapped in the cage.
Respect her all-in, take 2x MR in runes and possibly some MR + HP early. Mid game you just burst her down as long as you respect her range.
If she gets ahead, buy Banshee's or Abyssal Mask, try to avoid getting close to her until you'll be able to kill her with one rotation of spells.”
Shaawn says “She always gonna start w so you cant poke her when she goes for cs, try to windwall her q when you trade her, if she hits her q you lose specially if she is lvl 6”
NocUout says “Decently hard matchup. Diana is relatively tanky and has shields to negate your damage while still dealing a ton to you. Just poke and avoid as many of her Q's as possible, and ask your jungler for a gank asap.”
thedonk says “It depends on how fast the Diana's reaction is to press E once you W onto her. Once she hits 6, avoid her Q as much as possible. When you W in, immediately W out.”
Dudstrol says “Diana é difícil quando ela pega nível 6, ela se aproxima e você não consegue sair dela. Após Bastão faça Véu caso necessário para ficar vivo. Trocas sozinho com ela é bem difícil, então evite.”
overweight_zoe says “Diana's shield and clear can help her face tank her early levels until she reaches 6 where she is incredibly dangerous to Zoe. This is a lane where you'll have to be passive or risk exploding. You'll still be able to one shot her if she screws up, but she'll reach a point where she'll kill you before the sleep finishes. ”
kkiskk says “Always dodge her Q. If you don't dodge her Q post-6, You are dead. Try to bait her W without using your E before all-in her. W poke careful not to hit by her Q.”
Dr Wonderdrugs says “Assassin donc problème
CC=problème
Shield= problème
Mmmh déso j'ai pas de solution mais sa arrive de tomber sur une mauvaise dianna”
Junix L9 says “You can never trade her because of her shield.
Just try to stay alive and wait for your jungler.
Level 6 is a nightmare to lane against her.
You have to dodge all of her Q's or u will take a lot of damage.”
apsonalol says “Poderia colocar ela como um perigo extremo, mas ela só faz alguma coisa no lvl 6 antes disso você tem todo o controle da rota, usar o Q sempre que for possível nela e ficar atento aos roaming dela, caso por vacilo você acabe morrendo pra ela, lembre-se de buildar zhonya e mercury.”
ikiilyou7523 says “Solo juega defensivo freezea la linea y aprende a defenderte con tu Q (te da un escudo que debes aprender a utilizar en el momento indicado)”
Dr Wonderdrugs says “Dianna étant un assassin elle est déjà dur à affronter elle à aussi des dash et ce là ne vous aidera pas mais le pire restera son shield le permettant de s'echapper parfois à peu de choses.”
moutenn says “I truely hate everything about this matchup. She outdamages you at most points, and can build one damageitem then thornmail and still oneshot you. Survive laningface if possiple. If you can kill her you have to survive til 6. She will start shield, so your q's do nothing early. ”
Skeptil says “If she tries to go in on you at level 6, all you have to do is bait out her ult and then use your Sanguine Pool to deny the reset on her ult.”
LCAU says “Dodge her Moon cut thingy, if you can do this, it's an easy lane to win. If you are getting poked out, try and all in her when she wastes her abilities. Start Dark Seal.”
Andicus says “Diana is a very anti-assassin champion who is great against assassins. Diana will win almost every trade. She can block most of your damage with her W shield and chase you fairly easily even if you use your W shadow or R shadow because of her ultimate.
Your best bet is NOT engaging 1v1's with her. Farm safely and roam. If you can, have your jungler gank.”
dingram says “She is super annoying for Fizz. Not only does she have a shield, but she will get super tanky and laning phase will suck. She will also do a ton of damage to you, so make sure to dodge her Q.”
L3gislacerator says “Once she hits level 6, you need to be careful. She has the upper hand because she deals mostly magic damage, has two dashes, and can slow you. Save your stun for after she uses her dash.”
Sozzoh says “Diana does a lot of damage post-6, and she can dash over your ult. Pre-6, however you'll want to try and abuse her mistakes in lane and poke her down. If she goes in on you near your turret, always ult her towards your turret so it's a longer distance from safety. Diana does a lot of damage, so getting some MR would be ideal.”
Witwickies says “Only difficulty when facing Diana is dodging her Q. If her ultimate is up and you got hit... you have a problem. There is always escape route with fast-clicking R and then Flash, but you can use it once per 5 minutes. Just poke her to death from distance and make hard to even farm.”
undeadsoldiers says “If Diana is ahead, she can blow you up. But she is melee: try to poke her hard and deny her as much CS as you can without getting too close.
Shove her in. She'll have a difficult time CSing under tower.
When she dives into a teamfight, try to land your E on her as quickly as possible. She is incredibly vulnerable to getting blown up in a fight.
Try to punish her every time she does not reset her ult. (Her target has to have the easily visible Moonlight debuff in order for her to get the reset.)
Basically, if Diana isn't fed but builds squishy, she is screwed due to your sheer damage output.
If you get too close to her she may pull you in with her E before comboing her.
Suggested: Barrier or Exhaust if you feel you need one of those”
undeadsoldiers says “She can be pretty bad on you so just go safe for most of laning phase. Try to only last hit and freeze the wave at your tower. For a good freeze all you need is 4 caster minions waiting for the next wave and it should always freeze.”
macspam says “You'd think Diana would be more of a threat since she's an assassin but Veigar's E totally cucks her engage tool (the dash of her ult). As long as you cage pre-emptively, she will not get on top of you. ”
ZF.PandaYang says “Her Q is her only form of Poke, pretty easy to predict and use W to bait out her W. engage her without getting hit by her Q and you'll be okay.”
MidoriyaOGado says “Diana tem um kit muito forte contra fizz, tendo um potencial enorme de matar ele apartir do seu Lv 6... Evite tomar o Seu Q Para ela n dar um start com a sua ultimate.
Recomendo dar engage nela apartir do seu lv 4, use seu E para cancelar as bolinhas que ela usa no W.”
ctt13 says “You can win if played well, mostly she will just all in and burst you. Good shroom placement and blinding darts can turn her dive into your victory.”
iiCrispi says “You destroy her in any way possible, but don't go all in, she can force you back into the turrent. Go in at 6, it is when its most efficient, and a quick locked kill.”
asffg123 says “An aggressive champion that has a shield to counter some damage and abilities to limit your movement. Stay safe and watch out for her 6. You are likely to lose laning phase.
Warning - This champion can and will roam to counter a safe playstyle. Ping accordingly.”
Castcade says “I have not seen here in the jungle since season 8 but if you see her and she gets 2 kills hits level 6 you are pretty much dead if you get hit by her q not even your r will give you a chance to escape
I recommend playing safe counter gank as much as you can”
Smol Jelly says “Diana is highly mobile. She can blow you up instantly if you don't have your summoner spells. Get jungle assistance, and use your W proactively to negate burst.”
