, red smite and your ult is more than enough to deal with Diana. doesn't only give a shield. You also get bonus AD and % spell vamp / lifesteal when the passive is triggered.

Once engages, she has no way out + she struggles against champions that kite very well (Kindred!). If you play it right you can nullify her completely in fights. I would have went for instead of that .

@ yeager appreciate the feedback.

I get itemization sufficient to deal with Diana and likely even too defensive.

So that gets to mechanics.

-Kiting
-Summoner spell usage (I know I had at least one fight where I thought I smited her, but it turns out it didn't go off).

Danke schoen!

Comparing the two items, pd gives a stronger shield, but for only 2 seconds, while maw would be better against a lot of magic poke.

Seeing the enemy team comp, pd into a ga would have been best, since only the diana does magic damage.

I don't know if this would work in game but this is what I would have done.

I can see the logic and it may be worth trying in a similar scenario in the future. My experience with Diana is that generally ganking one as a squishy is dicey once she has her ult without any MR (hence the early (2nd item after boots this game)). But if she is just going to blow through the shield despite the additional MR, then PD is worth a go.

1) You buy maw if you need MR, since by buying PD you forfeit 50 MR that you'll never get back.

2) I think that with her build she still oneshots you even if you have a wit's end. But it's fairly close. Maybe with the HP from an you can survive.

I would have gone in your situation, yes. The item is literally made for this type of game. They have 3 champions that can jump you and oneshot you, and they're all AD except for Diana. But the best thing to do is to just group as 5.

Point on the MR on Maw.

I picked up a to build into and then forgot the use the damn thing after we killed and and Diana jumped me from tribush on the way to Baron, so big mistake on my part. Since she was the only one was one shoting (shotting?) me (even if others were capable) I decided that I would get the to see how that worked. Unfortunately, I picked it up after the last fight in which and I killed Diana at the cost of my life. Their team was able to roll over the rest of my team and end the game from there, so no opportunity to test. :(

You could also have sold the jungle item for GA, warrior late game is just 60 AD any other item is better.

Oh by the way you asked at what point do you get GA, in this kind of game I'd say as a 3rd or 4th item.

Ah, I do need to keep selling Enchantment: Warrior if it gets to super late game (wasn't quite tot he point in this game where I had the gold to swap out items). And also if I just need a little bit not get blown up.

Appreciate the suggestions@ Hamstertamer!
