Playing against Diana
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Diana needs to land Q for the E reset — if she misses Q, she has to engage without a reset and loses a lot.
2
Spread out when Diana is in the fight — her R deals more damage with more nearby targets.
3
She's relatively weak in early game (pre-6) — harass her before she has her Q → E → R combo.
4
Buy a Zhonya's or Banshee's to survive her initial burst.
