Diana Tweak: If you Q->R an enemy and kill it with Q, your R should still refresh.

Diana needs a small quality of life boost. A great thing about Diana is her ability to utilize her Q and R in multiple ways. Whenever catching up to an enemy, it's great to Q->R a minion to close the gap. Right now, if you kill a minion with your Q and hit R, you will dash toward the minion and have your R on cooldown. It's a little silly to calculate whether your Q will kill the minion or not, and therefore whether your R will be refreshed. I think your R should be refreshed if you dashed toward a minion that got hit by Q's Moonlight effect, regardless of whether it died by the Q or not, since you were still allowed to dash toward a minion that died.

It would be nice for the R to determine whether the enemy is hit with Moonlight BEFORE you reach the enemy, and therefore your R can be refreshed regardless of whether your Q hits the enemy.

I believe this change will make Diana more enjoyable to play and accentuate her unique abilities. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Diana Thanks for listening, Riot! Diana

Well there are two ways of doing it... As it is now, Hits target then checks for moonlight debuff (Old Cassio Twin fangs (E)) Or you could have it check as you cast the ability though that would mean you would have to land Q first then cast R (New/current Cassio Twin fangs (E))

Or how else would you want it to work? Dash is refreshed if the target dies before the damage of R is dealt?

but... R mid Q flight was already not intended from launch but was left in as one of those cool things that started unintentionally

I'd rather not have diana leapfrogging everywhere like akali, no offense
