Diana NEEDS Some Changes

Frosted Tips··4 votes·1,343 views

First off I know that I overloaded the kit, but I was throwing around alot of the ideas I have for her so people could see where I was going with how I think she should play.

IMO her current kit and playstyle can only truly be preserved by making her role a Fighter/Diver. So basically she needs her damage lowered and her survivability increased and add sustain.

Side note AP Fighters need new items to help them out so I created one place holder name Whip of Corruption builds out of an item 3916 and a item 3067 and the stats would be something like,

Whip of Corruption:

Health - 450 Ability Power: 40-50 Cooldown: 10% Unique Passive: Every Unique source of magic damage applies magic pen 5%/10%/20%30%

Passive - 10/15/20/25/30/35/45/55/65/75/85/100/115/130/145/160/180/200 damage and ratio 40% the Crest on the 3rd aa now does a small pull that works like her current e and the attack speed scales with lvl just like the damage 30%-80%(changes every level like the damage I just dont know what values to do)

Q - CD 8/7.5/7/6.5/6 and damage base to 70/90/110/130/150 and scaling to 50% ap

W - CD 10/9/8/7/6 AP ratio only for damage and bonus Health ratio for shield amount pop all bubbles adds heal over time for 150% of shield amount. I dont know what numbers for the shield yet.

E - CD 20/18/16/14/12 Next 3 aa apply 5% max health damage and increase bonus Armor and bonus MR by 20/25/30/35/40%

Ult - CD 25/20/15 Reduce damage scaling to 40% ap and base damage to 100/150/200

What are some suggestions you have and likes and dislikes about my thoughts on changing her? Let me know below.

The main change Diana needs is for her W shield to scale off of health or MR. That would bring her into a bruiser state like she's more meant to be imo. Also her E is intended to pull you into her shield. It's a pretty much useless ability outside of that(not really, but for the most part you only use it to pull people into your autos/W, so having the pull on the passive proc makes it kind of useless). She just needs to be forced to build things like Wit's End and Abyssal Mask in addition to Nashor's Tooth and Guinsoo's possibly, and her shield scaling being based on bonus health would do that, as long as it could reach higher levels than her current shield. To compensate for the damage loss her E could possibly get a damage proc on it as well based on her MR to further enforce a more tanky bruiser Diana with lots of attack speed.

I personally think we could give her passive with the pull it maybe weird to think of now but 3 aa isn't impossible and you could prep them just like now. And yes the shield value would be larger than now but also the damage lower

It sounds like you want her to be more like xin and I want her to be more like akali lol

I like my main just the way she is thanks but no thanks. Unless the changes help her early game. Ugh maybe I just hate change lol. I suppose id be open to it. I really like Akali's rework so as long as they put as much work in as they did with her Id be willing to learn it.

I mean people like alot of things the way they are but that doesn't make them healthy. I love Diana except her early game but it is very obvious to me that she is unhealthy when at 2 items I can practically burst anyone to death without landing my Q until after I ult seems pretty unhealthy. I tried to preserve her abilities buy really just rotating one to her passive and giving her only a survivability based ability to replace it.

ALTERNATIVELY, just make her full assassin, she already has some of the most up front burst of any champion in the game if you build her right. I have more Diana played this season than almost anyone else in NA and I think her kit could really go either way. I'd probably enjoy playing her one way or another, doesn't matter.

You could but with her current state I personally believe she would need alot of change to keep her as a healthy assassin in the game and she wouldn't feel much like herself at that point.
