Isn't she the champion that can go Tank and still 2 shot the ADC? Isn't she the champion that can kill someone in less than 0.5 sec? She has 2 Dash, and insane amount of damage aswell as CC.
She is almost like Ekko, except she does more damage than Ekko. I always though Ekko was a Fighter not an Assassin, and Diana an Assassin not a Fighter.

taleofsonata1 votesDoesn't explain why she can gip someone in under 1 sec... Any assassins could be considered Divers, Diver is such a vague word.

I'm not well versed in explaining divers, Riot is probably better.

Diana has been qualified as a Diver by Riot's listing, and it's most likely due to her shield. Most assassins rely on speed and agility to get in and out; Diana can get in, but she typically stays in to finish the job rather than hit-and-run like Ekko or Katarina.
Blåbæret2 votesSorry to break it to ya bud, but Diana is actually more on the underpowered side which is why she's getting a small buff. Also, buy MR and don't get hit by Q.

Diana buffs? -Sniffs around-
And also, I kind've find Diana to be in a decent spot currently. You can build her a multitude of ways and still be relevant, but at the same time unless you're ridiculously far ahead of just hit a spike, you're not popping people for most of the game. There is a TON of build flexibility for her right now, though.
Blåbæret1 votesYeah. she's getting more range on her E. She's definitely in a decent spot, but the problem is that unless she's far ahead, it's extremely risky to dive with her.

Agreed. More range on her E is an interesting choice, and one that might do A LOT more than some people think it will(The range is further than most people think, already.). But I'm excited for it nonetheless. As for the risky to dive - I've been running stormraider's lately testing the waters, and it's ridiculously helpful against ANYONE with a slow. One full combo is enough to proc it on just about anyone, especially diving with the empowered AA, even if you're behind.
Cremepie1 votesDiana is a Diver, who builds like an assassin. Ekko is an assassin, who builds like a brusier/tank with the damage of an assassin. Yay balance. Also Diana does not have "an insane amount of CC" just saying.
Akenero1 votesDiana is...weird, she's got amazing assassin-like parts to her kit, but has enough defensive spells to negate her being fully classified as one. She's also got a large amount of damage built into her auto-attacks via her passive, which isn't what assassins do.
RaptorKarr1 votesShe's a Light Fighter, ever since Riven's release Riot has LOVED the idea of Light Fighter's it seems. Which is fine.
Cubíx1 votesI would really relate her to ekko that much, I mean ap burst sure but se seems more similar to akali, who is also an assassin, but im just saying. I feel like diana is like elise in play style, does good damage but gets a little tank to survive, basically an AP bruiser, compare to ekko or akali who need more damage.
