Diana is still weak.

Just because a champion can one-shot you, does no mean they're OP.

Mid 49% WR Jungle 47% WR

The problem with Diana is her late game. For a champion with such a trash early game, her late game is pretty much just as bad. Diana's cooldowns mean she can only combo once per teamfight - and if the enemy have half a brain, they'd easily be able to negate Diana's dmg via lulu/Janna protection making her completely useless.

Now, say she does get a kill. Then what? She relies on her team to follow up and save her, but 90% of the time she'll get cc'd by the 4 other teammates and killed.

I compared Diana's dmg with Katarinas in Practice tool. At full build, Kat does 5k AOE dmg per combo at 1k DPS, whilst diana does 3k per combo with 600dps. Funniest part of it all? Katarina is an "Early game champion". lol.

For a champion that can't do crap for 16 levels, her lvl 18 is almost as useless.

Diana needs a Xin level gameplay update to push her into the diver class (where she's meant to belong). She currently plays too much like an assassin tbh.

Couldnt agree more. Ive been suggesting that before her 2017 buffs.

Her ult needs se sort of CC to come with it. For a champion that's classified as a diver, its sad that her only form of cc is a weak pull with a gunblade-like slow.

Idk, She does need help, I'll agree to that but I like to mess around and play her as a Ap Bruiser over a AP Assassin.

I was able to 2v5 as Diana ...the ( I was doing solo dps while lulu buffed me ) sort of thing.

She is either a deleter or a raidboss if she hits late game, but dear god is her laning phase so weak.

Diving as her is fine you are just building her wrong, item 3124 item 3146 item 3075 item 3091 item 3115 and that was BEFORE the rageblade changes.

Her e is pretty damn strong if you can combo it with her passive, think of her like shyvana.

She does lose deleting potential though, takes an extra second or 2 to kill a squishy but she can drain tank an entire team if she gets a good e in.

Best part is the enemy team will spend more time trying to blow you up and cc you than actually trying to spread out so you will be back to full hp so quickly.

item 3124 and item 3115 give her auto attacks such a high ap ratio with ALOT of it being aoe because of her passive proccing every 2 autos. I'm talking over 1.0, like huge
