Diana Update Suggestion (One-trick Main)

tieger05·Apr 1, 2018·2 votes·457 views

Q - Damage Lowered at Early Ranks

W - Shield AP Scaling Increased

E - Slow reduced to 20% at all ranks

R - Diana Gains Movement Speed for 3 seconds when she R's a Champion

Diana's FINE right now but her kit is being balanced around Damage & the Balance Team are overlooking the main problem of her kit. Like they stated for Akali, Diana can't do anything once she goes in. She needs some sort of survivability in which she can make up for it with reduced damage.

She is a snowball champ, but if she doesn't snowball she struggles unless the game makes like 30 mins+.

I feel like diana is great if you are picking on bad players, but struggles against anyone with half a brain. I agree, I think she needs some sort of escape. She does not have enough survivability for an all in champ with no exit.

I've suggested this recently: What if they made her R dash in a Crescent Moon shape like her Q, and dealing damage to every enemy she hits? Even if the damage has to take a small hit. More teamfight damage and can potentially dodge line skillshots.

I like this idea but I'd also loke see her have a reactivate put on it like Leblanc W. It would give her some much needed escape and mean her reset is that much more useful in teamfight as she can dart in and out of the fight.

Reducing her damage isn't the way to go. With all the heals/shields in the game she's barely potent enough as is. Also, reducing her shields base cooldown would be a better way to go than increasing it's potency because either; A, the increase won't be drastic enough to make a big enough change B, it will be too drastic and push her over the top.

Diana's R doing damage to enemies she passes through is a good change imo. Has counterplay (don't stand in a line), increases her skill ceiling slightly, and ups her ability to really shine as a diver (in that she'll have strong AOE damage in TFs)

my suggestion was a reduction in Q base dmg only at early ranks, which reduces her early poke (which i think is fine if we're increasing her shield in return). I do like the Idea of her R doing dmg to all enemies she passes through, but i think she still needs MS on it.

I would think a second way to proc moonlight and for her MR steroid to also add armor would make her really tough to deal with once she got in. So instead of being a worse Akali she would have the chance to be more of a diving bruiser

I wouldn't say she's a worse akali at all. They're both however, unhealthy. Thus why Akali is getting a rework and so should Diana.

Base scaling increased on the shield, no need to increase the AP scaling, it would make her extremely broken (aka building glass cannon while having a super broken shield). I want to be able to build item 3025 item 3001 item 3091 item 3124 or items like this on her
