What makes Diana dangerous
Diana throws a Q crescent, shields herself (E in newer patches pulls), and her ultimate pulls all nearby enemies to her for a huge AoE reset. Against a grouped team she can flash-R and delete multiple squishies. Her shield lets her survive the dive.
How to play against Diana
- 1Never clump low: her ult only reaches enemies near her, so spread out.
- 2Poke her before level 6 and before she gets her shield up — she is melee.
- 3She is very mana-hungry early; bait her Q and W and punish the empty mana bar.
- 4Hard CC her the instant she dashes in — interrupted, her whole combo falls apart.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Mana-starved in the early game.
- ✓Relies on her ult to engage; without it she is easily kited.
- ✓Squishy once her shield pops — burst her down.
- ✓Predictable engage range — dodge the initial Q.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Diana's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
서늘한 달빛 검3번째 공격마다 근처 적들을 베어 추가 마법 피해를 입힙니다. 스킬 사용 후 5초 동안 공격 속도가 증가합니다.
Strong: every third hit deals bonus AoE magic damage. Weak: needs three autos — she is melee, so deny her the stacks.
Q
초승달 검기달 에너지를 휘어지게 발사하여 마법 피해를 입힙니다.적중당한 적들은 은신 상태가 아닐 경우 달빛을 받아 3초 동안 위치가 노출됩니다.
Strong: a crescent that marks you for her dash and deals AoE. Weak: slow-travelling and easy to sidestep — dodge it and she can't gap-close.
W
은빛 가호다이애나가 주위를 돌면서 적에게 접촉하면 폭발하여 해당 지역에 피해를 주는 세 개의 구체를 생성합니다. 또한 잠시 동안 피해를 흡수하는 보호막을 얻습니다. 보호막은 세 번째 구체가 폭발하면 위력이 더 커집니다.
Strong: an orbiting shield that blocks poke and refreshes on hits. Weak: once popped she is squishy — burst her while it's down.
E
월광 쇄도복수심에 불타는 달의 화신이 되어, 적에게 돌진하여 마법 피해를 입힙니다.달빛 효과를 받고 있는 대상에게 돌진한 경우, 월광 쇄도를 즉시 한 번 더 사용할 수 있습니다. 이 때, 다른 모든 적들은 월광 쇄도의 대상이 아니었더라도 달빛 효과가 사라집니다.
Strong: a dash that only reaches a Q-marked target, enabling her all-in. Weak: no mark, no dash — dodge her Q and she can't engage.
R
달빛 낙하다이애나가 주위 모든 적을 드러내 끌어당긴 다음 이동 속도를 늦춥니다.다이애나가 한 명 이상의 적 챔피언을 끌어당기면 잠시 후 달빛을 받아 자신의 주변 지역에 마법 피해를 입힙니다. 이 효과는 적 한 명을 추가로 끌어당길 때마다 피해량이 증가합니다.
Strong: pulls all nearby enemies to her for a huge AoE reset. Weak: short range and only hits those clustered near her — spread out.
Itemization
Magic resist and health blunt her burst: Mercury's Treads, Hexdrinker/Maw, Kaenic Rookern. A Zhonya's hard-counters her all-in.
