Diana is a diver with no magic pen in her kit at all

Every single other diver either has true damage or armor shred. Diana is super hard countered by item 3102 because it will block her q preventing moonlight from hitting the target. Theres no way around it. Also item 3156 super counters diana because once she is in there is no way out. I realize you cant just give diana magic pen, that would make her op. But if she had maybe witts end or something built into her passive and reduce damage elsewhere it would make a world of a difference to diana players. Another thing is that when diana uses her e she should gain armor and magic resist for each enemy pulled it. Honestly diana is not a diver at all. Idk why riot classified her as one because diana is not a brusier at all. The way that everyone plays her is as an assassin. The higher rank i get with her the more players start to hard counter her. With the recent change to her e (cutting off her ability to escape) she is stuck in the midst of battle durring a teamfight and 9 times out of 10 will die because her R,E combo is now far too powerful for her to even try to land a q. Then what... diana sits there and auto attacks hoping to live long enough to proc her passive or hourglass then die? As a diana main I can honestly tell you that there is a very low skill cap to diana. I hope that in the future riot realizes this and can change some of the things in her kit to work with the constantly changing meta. She is very outdated at this point considering there hasent been any item changes that benifit diana in a long time.

I don't know what are the champions that riot consider "divers" and aatrox was the only one that was in my mind at that moment so yeah.

Vi has arpen so ...

A diver is supposed to dive onto enemies but have a larger kill time so they can't instantly one shot people. In Nocturnce's case, it is possible, however that is only if he is super fed. Divers are supposed to have defensive stats or skills that allow them to survive fights.

Assasins, similarly, are also supposed to dive onto enemies. However, they are squishier and rely on mobility and outplays in order to survive. Their kill time is shorter than that of divers.

So your first sentence ('Every single other diver either has true damage or armor shred') is factually incorrect.

Er.. I don't have a problem with either of the items you mentioned. Diana has wonderful DPS when they build to counter the burst. Fit a Nashor's into your build and you can just AA duel most targets unless they're building a ton of MR. Plus Abyssal Scepter is such a good item on her in the first place, and provides some easily accessed Pen. I just don't see any real changes being needed for her.
