best way to hit diana Q?

R2HOGSV6a5··1 votes·1,851 views

I'm new to diana and since her Q is a crescent i thought the best way might not to be just going for a hit at the tip of the skillshot? How do you hit max range people, how do you hit multiple people, how do you hit midrange people? Do you ever actually use the curved part of the crescent?

Usually anticipating your opponent's direction of movement is the best way to go. Positioning is a huge part of playing Diana well because of how her Q works and her AoE E.

The fact that her Q is a crescent makes it a little more difficult to determine the precise end-point for the enemy, however when her Q comes out it's relatively easy to figure out it's range and avoid it by stepping into it if you're further away and away from it if you're closer, either of these will cause it to miss by a fair margin. Anticipating your opponent's movements based on their previous movement patterns will help you land Q more often and more reliably.

Or you could always use the Nidalee method, keep launching those suckers til one hits, then go deep.

Doesn't work, Diana runs oom too fast. She has a small mana pool throughout the game and quite frankly, shitty mana regen.

Even with the neutered blue buff and mana regen she can spam enough that you have to dodge like 20 of them in a row to not get 100-0'd as a squishy

It's a GOOD thing that she can actually run oom now though, that shit was cancer as fuck when she had nidalee syndrome of "lol spam until one hits then free kill". Like, it might need further tweaks, but seriously I'm glad of it.

Early game she can put out about 7 before running oom. One combo costs over 60% of her lvl 4 mana pool.

This is based entirely on spamming them to no end hoping to hit.

And if you land 2 Q's, hell maybe even 1 depending on relative stats, then go all in with WRERQ+autos+ignite, any squishy WILL DIE. And you'll probably break their flash with E to boot.

So uhh... don't miss 7 Q's?

Hey now, most of us Nidalee's aren't just chucking spears randomly, its called herding, learning how the enemy will move when we do ____ then following up with the next spear into their neck and while they run bleeding in terror we turn into deadly kittahs and play with our food.

I was half kidding.. lol Seriously though, I don't know how to actually answer this question because I've just never had an issue with it. I just get to the side and throw it in a way that I have a chance of hitting with almost every part of the arc (depending on whether they have the happy feet or not). Usually works.

Its a skill shot, so you probably wanna aim based on where you think the enemy will go.

One more question, does her ult remove the moonlight stacks from EVERYONE? It's kinda confusing as to whether it removes the moonlight from everyone or everyone besides the person she ulted to first.

It removes it from everyone.

Also something I found helps with landing Q if you're closer is to aim with your arc instead of your endpoint. This way there's less directions and even less time to dodge it.
