Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Diana, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Naafiri wins 46.2% of 39 games (95% range 31.6–61.4%).
  • Both champions' overall Mid win rates predict 49.2% for Naafiri; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Neither side reliably wins the lane: the average gold difference at 15 minutes is 358, within the margin of error (39 games).
  • Naafiri players pick Doran's Blade + Health Potion + Stealth Ward far more often against Diana: 28.6% of their other Mid games, 56.4% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Naafiri and Diana played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Naafiri's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Naafiri Build vs Diana

Usual Naafiri build (Mid)

72.7% win rate · 22 games

Against Diana

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 2 of 22 Naafiri games against Diana carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Naafiri's standard build instead.

  • Naafiri usually completes Voltaic Cyclosword first, at 10.8 min (median of 23 games).
  • Diana usually completes Stormsurge first, at 10.7 min (median of 21 games).
  • Skill priority: Q > E > W — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
