Taliyah vs Diana

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Control mid wave with Q to pressure Diana's all-in attempts and avoid giving her safe burst windows.
Manage spacing to punish Diana's forward commits with W and E, denying her predictable engages.

Trading pattern

Poke with Q and only commit W and E when Diana dashes or moves predictably into your E zone.
Punish Diana if she misses Diana Q or uses Diana E without resetting cooldown by landing W displacement through E.
Avoid trading when W and E are down to prevent Diana's burst combo from punishing you.

Danger windows

Diana is most dangerous when Diana Q and Diana E are up and ready for her burst combo.
Avoid extended trades if W and E are on cooldown to reduce vulnerability to Diana's all-in.
Respect Diana's level 6 Diana R as a strong all-in and teamfight threat.

Early game

Use Q poke early to chip Diana before level 3 when her Q-W-E combo unlocks.
Hold W and E to punish Diana's dash (Diana E) and shield (Diana W) cooldowns.
Avoid extended trades before level 3 as Diana's burst is limited and you can safely poke her down.

Power spikes

Your level 6 R enables roams and map pressure beyond lane trades.
Your first completed mage item boosts Q poke and wave control.
Respect Diana's level 3 power spike when she gains full Q-W-E burst and shield combo.

Win conditions

Win by controlling the wave with Q and punishing Diana's dash with W and E to deny her burst trades.
Use wave push windows to roam with R and create side-lane pressure.
Force Diana to waste mobility before committing, then punish her cooldowns to maintain lane control.

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