- Lv 6Ultimate rank 1 at level 6The biggest early spike: look for a kill or a roam as soon as Diana hits it.
- Lv 11Ultimate rank 2 at level 11Lower ultimate cooldown means more fights Diana can start or win.
- Lv 16Ultimate rank 3 at level 16Lower ultimate cooldown means more fights Diana can start or win.

Diana Mid and Late Game
What Diana does better or worse than other champions after laning, from this patch's ranked games — percentiles where 100 is the highest of every champion.
Play to these strengths
- Diana wins 14.1 points more in short games than long ones: group, take objectives and end before the enemy scales.
Playing Diana
- Landing Crescent Strike is critically important, but don't be afraid to miss. The cooldown is short and the mana cost is low.
- Consider when to cast Lunar Rush without Moonlight and when to wait for another Crescent Strike.
- Use Moonfall and Lunar Rush to stay on targets and activate Moonsilver Blade for extra damage.
Playing Against Diana
- Dodge Crescent Strike, or move to safety if you are affected by Moonlight.
- Pale Cascade orbs only last a few seconds. Avoid Diana and engage her after the shield dissipates.
- Diana can play very aggressively if she uses Lunar Rush without Moonlight, but you can punish her by slowing or stunning her when she has no way to get back into position.
