Im a diana main, and I do think riot should give a slight buff to her E, maybe a bit more slow % but that's all. She's not getting a rework as far as im concerned, and I don't think she needs one. The only rework I can imagine them giving her, is reworking her to an assassin instead of a fighter.

her E is mainly to shield her and do some extra damage , specially if you play jungle.

You're talking about W. :)

Her E is mainly to draw in/slow the enemy. In the jungle, the only real instance to use her E is to reduce Scuttle Crab's Armor/MR.

Her W is to sustain in the jungle.

I was actually thinking, just a slight increase of range to the E. I think the slow is ok where it is. Every time I catch up, it's Q>R>E, and the E misses roughly 60% of the time.

For me she is really solid. She has a pretty steep learning curve. I mean despite simplistic kit - she has huuuuuge depth when you get like 100 games on her. There are so many things you can do with her E or QR. She has really versatile utilization: splitpushing, assassination, AOE burst mage. Also visually she isn't outdated. There are certainly champions in far worse condition.

P.S.: The only thing I would gladly see reworked is Infernal Diana splash art. Good model and VFX, but dull art (face anatomy is just horrible and overall composition isn't inspiring).

The question is whether they want to make her more of a diver or make her more of an assassin. Right now she's kind of in between which frequently makes her less ideal than other champions. She doesn't have the escapes of an assassin and she doesn't have the tankiness of a diver. I'd prefer to see her be pushed more towards a diver since we don't have many AP divers.

I think they intend her to have AP-based tankiness from her W. But still she's pretty squishy.

My reasoning for asking was her playrate is pretty low and this counts especially for competitive. I agree with Randomonium thought that she's kinda in between and that's why she's not played that much. Just curious to see if we could get a comment since I thought at one time they would be looking at the diving style of champs to do small touch ups.

I would like to see them swap her R and E around, add some more attack speed scaling to her passive, and some shield bonus for procing passive. However make her new E ultimate have larger range and perhaps an additional slow effect afterwards and apply moonlight. Give her more tank, and re-enforce her identity as a diver with some burstiness.

She'll likely be one of the champions to get a major Gameplay Update when ChampUP will eventually get to the Divers Roster Update (Although current one being worked on, for Mid-Season, is the Tanks').

I think if they want to see her competitive, all they have to do is give her r the ability to teleport to allies/minions as a sort of expensive but needed escape. Right now, she just can't get out of the team fight after jumping the soft targets.

I feel like some of her skills need a touch up to be honest; the e being the primary tool to change its useless especially going up against mid lane mages. it should be scrapped all together if im honest. Now that galios out I definitely think dianas passive needs to be increased since they share similar passives. Feel like she's a hodge podge of champion skills.
