Diana vs Renekton

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Diana should use her medium early agency to pressure Renekton and deny his strong early lane pressure.
This is a snowball matchup where Diana aims to leverage her burst and mobility to punish Renekton's predictable trade windows.

Trading pattern

Trade by landing (Q) and immediately using (E) to reset and follow up with (W) shield for burst and survivability.
Punish Renekton after he uses both (E) dashes forward by committing to burst trades.
Avoid trading if you miss (Q) or if (E) is on cooldown, as you lose pressure and can be punished hard.

Danger windows

Respect Renekton's empowered (W) stun and high fury trades as they can chunk you quickly.
Be cautious when Renekton has both (E) dashes available; he can engage and disengage effectively.
Avoid extended fights or trades without (E) available, as you lose mobility and become vulnerable to his burst.

Early game

Use level 1-2 to safely farm and look for short trades only when (Q) is guaranteed to hit.
At level 3, unlock your full (Q)+(W)+(E) combo to punish Renekton if he overextends or uses both (E) dashes forward.
Avoid extended trades before level 3 when your combo is not available and Renekton's fury trades are strongest.

Power spikes

At level 3, use your full (Q)+(W)+(E) burst combo to pressure Renekton and force him to respect your damage.
At level 6, track (R) availability and look for all-in or pick opportunities using your ultimate rather than forcing blind engages.
After your first completed AP skirmish item, increase wave pressure and trade confidence while respecting Renekton's empowered (W) and fury windows.

Win conditions

Use your (Q)+(E)+(W) combo to deny Renekton's scaling by punishing his mistakes and wave control.
Leverage your level 6 (R) for decisive all-ins, picks, or roams to snowball the game.
Pressure waves confidently after your first AP item to force Renekton into defensive play and secure lane dominance.
