@Riot IronStylus what did you mean by " Assassin Mage " ?

Was watching an interview of yours where you discussed about Diana, Leona and other champions and so happened to hear you say "One is vicious assassin mage semi tanky type of thing "

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hxUlbnVkIA

Why is Diana labeled as Fighter/Mage then? you made a thread a year ago asking people what ideas or suggestions they can bring up for Diana's kit. I'm not sure why you completely stopped with that but personally I do feel like she is more of an Assassin but her R is way too similar to Akali's which brings out nothing unique to Diana. Everything about Leona was very well thought and unique but I feel like Diana's R lacked on that.

In the interview you expressed your feelings on how Diana was designed to be and the kind of personality she has that makes her the opposite of Leona. I feel like, only you can come up with something Unique within her kit. It's her E that has so much potential to become a very powerful R while her current R can switch places with her E. Her Q brings out a lunar energy which I feel she should benefit more on that with all her skills, not just specific ones.

Diana's original design and numbers WERE to be a tanky AP fighter. Unfortunately, she was -really- fucking good because of this. So they just fucked around with her numbers until all she was useful for was gibbing an ADC.

Are you sure? this interview was 2 months after her release date and IronStylus didn't mention her to be as a fighter but as an assassin.
