Diana Mid guide

Diana mid is a burst mage built around Crescent Strike (Q) marking a target with Moonlight, then Lunar Rush (E) dashing to that target for free before finishing with autos empowered by Moonsilver Blade (passive). Pale Cascade (W) shields her through the follow-up trade.

The build

Rune page: Electrocute, Sudden Impact, Grisly Mementos, and Treasure Hunter (Domination), with Shield Bash and Bone Plating (Resolve). Summoners: Flash and Ignite. Skill order opens Crescent Strike (Q), Lunar Rush (E), Pale Cascade (W), then maxes Crescent Strike (Q) first with Pale Cascade (W) second. Starter: Doran's Ring and two Health Potions, into Sorcerer's Shoes. Core build: Stormsurge, Shadowflame, and Zhonya's Hourglass, with Rabadon's Deathcap, Dark Seal, and Hextech Rocketbelt as later options.

Ability mechanics

Crescent Strike (Q) fires a bolt of lunar energy in an arc and afflicts whatever it hits with Moonlight, revealing non-stealthed targets for 3 seconds. Lunar Rush (E) dashes to an enemy and has no cooldown against a Moonlight-afflicted target, though it strips the debuff from every other enemy it touches. Moonsilver Blade (passive) cleaves on every third strike and grants attack speed after casting a spell.

Matchups

Hardest matchups by win rate: Ahri, Yasuo, Sylas, Syndra, Viktor. Best matchups: Zed, Locke, Katarina.
