Give Diana a slight buff

Hi guys, Diana has been falling off since the beginning of the new season. She was only in 1 patch note, where she was given a little buff on her E. Except that, everything has been terrible for her. Let me explain : it is about itemization : a lot of changes made on items have been very detrimental for her.

The rework of item 3001 , which was one of her core item in terms of survavibility and damage, hit her hard because she legit lost an item, that is no longer viable for APs You could think that item 3102 is now a good item on her, that could compensate the loss of Abyssal ; but to me, it doesn't feel as good as abyssal was. Furthermore, every AP mid laning against Diana just has to rush Banshee to make her kit potential completly reduced ; this has hurt her laning phase as well. More recently, there has been the item 1056 nerf, making Doran stack give less mana. So yh, that places Nautilus and Galio in a balanced spot (at least for laning phase), but this also nerfs EVERY ap mid that usually builds double or even triple doran. This hits even more Diana than others, given how bad her laning phase is (melee, no way to win lane if facing a ranged champ, and especially very high mana costs early game)

I know Diana is unfun to play against for some people, but she is in a bad spot right now, and this has lasted for at least a year. I would like some mana costs getting lowered, that would really help her. Thanks :)

I think a band-aid fix until her rework would be a lower W cost at all ranks, and increasing her base mana pool to allow for 1 or 2 more q's in lane. I just posted a huge rework idea, but she needs changes immediately.

Would you give menthe link? :) And i think she doesnt really need that much buffs, only something to help her laning phase (and OH SHIT i dont want her to be reworked!!)

Diana is indeed struggling and has for a long time now, she's nothing compared to her old glory and right now she needs mana buffs to actually use her spells more frequently Darius and Camille has no mana cost while Diana that builds almost no mana has the worst mana lv1 and pretty bad mana regen.

Lol "places naut in a balanced spot" yeah no. This and the sun fire changes on top of the mana and damage nerfs, along with the health reduction on a ton of items naut has been wrecked this season.

My point was that they choose to nerf doran for these only 2 champions, which makes at least 30 others champs worse than they were.

My point is that I don't really believe that it was a problem on nautilus, because of the cinderhulk nerfs a while back, the sun fire nerfs, and all of his nerfs, that even with dorans he was fine, it jus basically reverted a nerf that deserves to be reverted now

Diana needs blue from minute 2 to minute 40 or she's useless.

Against a ranged opponent? Max W or you can't lane. But it costs 100 mana now so you're oom and can't lane anyway.

Or you have to rush ROAs which is the only viable mana item on her.... too bad that building this shrecks your lvl 6 powerspike xD
