Diana has good poke with q and has her E to get in your face and all in. When she lands a q prepare by putting a soldier behind you and using e to get out before her all in. After 6 if you get in her R use your r to disengage make sure she does not have e up so she cant e to you through the wall.
Lucian
Lucian is a bad lane because of his q poke and his insane all in damage. As long as you can stay safe and wait to scale you should be good since he has no hard cc you can usually w e q out before he can kill you. I would take tp and Arcane Comet for safe poke and to guarantee farm with teleport.
Yone
When he detaches his spirit and goes for a wind q make sure to e out if you get hit he can kill you. When he gets enough attack speed and life steal he becomes impossible to deal with. I would take barrier into this match-up.
Kassadin
Kassadin has no real kill threat pre 6 but after 6 he becomes a bit more threatening. Overall he is a bad matchup but if you take Hail of Blades you should win by poke and if he all-ins R him then start to damage him. I would go teleport in this lane.
Katarina
Katarina has insane kill pressure pre 6. She can close the gap between you and her instantly and will either nearly or completely kill you. Even if she gets close to your tower and you use your ultimate to push her in she can instantly E to either your minions, her minions, or you. If Katarina engages you and uses her R immediately use your ultimate to push her away or you will die. To play against her try to slow push and poke her down slowly. Make sure you never get hit by an initial Q by Katarina or that you are in the radius of her spin when she picks up her dagger. If you can't find yourself being able to do anything against her build up a big wave and roam post 6. After you have 1450 gold you should buy Lost Chapter and a refillable you should be able to poke her without running out of mana. The ideal keystone in this matchup would be Arcane Comet since you can really get close enough to hit your autos with Lethal Tempo and Hail Of Blades and in the case that you try to she engages with her E and even if you live you will be down on CS, XP, and you will have nearly no kill pressure for the rest of lane. You could take Exhaust if you play it right and you know you could win it in lane although even with Exhaust if she has her E up she will still get away. I normally go TP in this matchup to try to rush Lost Chapter or go for a roam, reset, and TP back to lane. I highly recommend banning Katarina.
Irelia
Lux
Lux does not serve any real threat since you are safe enough to not be in her root range. If you do get rooted she will most likely all in but that should not happen if you know how to stand behind caster s and press right click.
Twisted Fate
You can freely poke Twisted Fate in lane just be careful of a flash into yellow card when his jungler will gank. Remember that you cant match his roams so when he does roam shove the wave get plates and sclae up. I would take Hail of Blades and teleport or ignite its up to preference.
LeBlanc
Xerath
Neeko
Ahri
Galio
Viktor
This lane is just non stop farming you cant kill him and he can't kill you unless one makes a huge misplay or outplay or there is jungle interference.
Zoe
Fizz
Fizz is a very annoying match-up since he can use his e to dodge your R. Also he has insane all in the early game if you get hit by his r make sure to w q e out into your tower. I would take barrier for extra security since you don't want to get a fizz fed.
Yasuo
Akali
Zed
Zed isn't very hard to deal with if you manipulate the wave right. Slow push into his tower and he will struggle to poke you with his Q and almost never hit you with his E. You can poke at him freely once the wave is at his tower and it will be difficult for him to deal with you. Make sure to always push him away with your ultimate if he uses his R on you. If you mess up your wave and ends up on your side I wouldn't recommend to Drift/Shuffle/WEQR him into your tower since you will waste a lot of mana, be at risk if jungler is nearby, and because he can just W right through your ultimate. I recommend having good map awareness while in this matchup and having vision at all times or that you know how to "Jungle Track" or else you will be ganked and kill instantly with any of Zed's combos. If you really don't like this matchup you can ban Zed, personally I don't find it too hard but it can be with his W engage and him being able to dodge your ult with his ult. Ideal runes for this matchup would be Arcane Comet and Hail of Blades, you will have good poke under tower with both runes and even with the lessened duration on your W soldier when they are in tower, your Hail of Blades autos will be fast enough to attack him and deal a good amount of damage before they go down. You can go Lethal Tempo if you want but you already can contest him in lane with Hail of Blades since he is an early champ. I don't think Lethal Tempo will be necessary since you already outscale him but again, if you want to use it then you can.
Yasuo
Pog ult combo
Amumu
His R is a perfect set up for yours
Seraphine
Her r sets up for you and your r sets up for hers.
Leona
Leona can lock a person down for you to kill very fast. If she lands a multi-man R then it's a slaughter.
