Talon vs Diana

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Talon should leverage superior early mobility and burst to disrupt Diana's farming tempo and delay her level 6 spike.
Prioritize aggressive jungle tempo and river vision control to limit Diana's safe approach to key objectives and snowball early leads.

Jungle Plan

Execute a full clear path then contest dragon or Rift Herald when lanes have priority and Diana is forced to farm.
Invade Diana's jungle when she is tracked on the opposite side or after she wastes (Q) without resetting (E).
Use Talon's mobility to counter-gank river skirmishes and punish Diana's committed all-ins.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 when (Q)+(E) burst combo is lethal.
Respect Diana's ultimate (R) during objective contests as it can turn fights with crowd control.
Be cautious during low-health clears or forced smite fights without vision control or nearby support.

Early game

Start with a full clear to match Diana's fast AoE clear and avoid vulnerability before level 3.
Secure first Scuttle Crab only when nearby lanes hold priority to avoid risky isolated fights.
Avoid early river invades without strong lane priority or vision control to punish Diana's predictable pathing.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(W) combo, enabling early skirmishes and punishing Diana's cooldowns.
Level 6 (R) grants stealth and burst for aggressive picks or safe escapes against Diana's all-in.
First lethality item completion boosts damage to pressure Diana's farming and force her off camps.

Win conditions

Convert early jungle tempo and successful invades into dragon and Rift Herald control to deny Diana scaling.
Use Talon's superior mobility and roam potential to generate cross-map pressure and force Diana into reactive plays.
Punish Diana's cooldowns and lack of sustain by invading her jungle camps and denying safe farming windows.
