Qiyana vs Diana

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Qiyana controls the lane by managing elements and terrain to threaten burst trades and roams.
Apply medium lane pressure to deny Diana easy Q+E+W combos and avoid letting her freely all-in.

Trading pattern

Prepare the correct element with W before engaging with Q poke.
Punish Diana if she misses Diana Q or uses Diana E without reset by committing E into burst.
Avoid trading away from terrain or without the right element, as Diana's burst combo is strong when she lands Diana Q.

Danger windows

Diana is dangerous when Diana Q and Diana E are available for burst combos.
Respect Diana R for all-in threat around level 6.
Avoid committing E without lethal pressure or terrain access, as Diana can punish Qiyana hard then.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to secure brush or river terrain for element access and short trades.
Avoid committing E without lethal threat or escape, as Diana can punish if her Q lands.
Keep wave on your side to maintain element and terrain advantage for R setups.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Q-W-E element setup and first burst trade pattern.
Level 6 unlocks R with terrain stun, crucial for turning river fights.
First lethality item completion greatly increases burst threat; respect Diana's level 3 Q-W-E burst and level 6 R.

Win conditions

Use element swaps and terrain to create burst trades and punish Diana's missed Diana Q or spent Diana E.
Control river and brush for R impact to snowball skirmishes.
Deny Diana cooldown windows and roam opportunities by maintaining lane pressure and wave control.

Tip: For Qiyana vs Diana, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
