Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and Q poke, as Diana lacks gap closers and must walk up for CS while eating harass.
- Post-6 Diana wins all-ins if she lands Q, but you can still win if you properly use W to reflect her Q and maintain distance.
How to Trade
- Use Q to poke when Diana goes for CS, then auto with passive stacks to maximize damage while staying at max range.
- When she tries to engage, use W preemptively to reflect her Q back and deny her gap closer, then follow up with E to root her during retreat.
Wave Control
- Push waves with Q to keep Diana under tower and prevent her from roaming, as she struggles to CS under pressure early.
- Maintain vision control and back off when waves are pushing toward her, as overextending makes you vulnerable to her R engage.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W reactively after Diana has already landed Q and is diving you - use it proactively when you see her Q animation.
- Avoid staying in lane with low HP post-6, as Diana's R reset potential makes her extremely dangerous even if you dodge the initial Q.
