Diana vs Tryndamere

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Diana's fast clear speed to secure level 6 and item spikes on tempo before Tryndamere can pressure side lanes.
Focus on protecting farming tempo and avoid risky early river fights before level 6 when Tryndamere's all-in threat is lower.
Prioritize objective control and look for teamfights where (R) can hit multiple targets to leverage Diana's scaling burst and engage.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize efficient full clears and path camps toward objective timers, focusing on dragons and Rift Herald after level 6.
Contest Scuttle Crab only when your lanes have priority and Tryndamere is unlikely to counter-invade.
Track Tryndamere's jungle pathing to set up counter-ganks and avoid isolated fights where his (R) can turn kills.

Danger windows

Respect (R) window after level 6, as he can survive lethal damage and turn fights.
Avoid isolated river fights or forced smite contests when low on health or without lane priority.
Be cautious when Tryndamere has high Fury and (E) available, as his chase and burst threat spike sharply.

Early game

Start with a full clear toward the safest first reset to maximize level 3 power and avoid early invades.
Avoid contesting first Scuttle Crab unless nearby lanes have priority to support a fight.
Use level 3 combo (Q)+(W)+(E) to punish Tryndamere if he overextends or invades without Fury or (R) ready.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks (Q)+(W)+(E) burst combo; use this window to punish Tryndamere's low mobility before (R).
Level 6 (R) is a major spike; use it to force all-ins or objective fights where you can hit multiple targets.
After first AP skirmish item, increase pressure on objectives and trades, as your burst outdamages Tryndamere's sustain and crit damage.

Win conditions

Use Diana's fast clear and level 6 power spike to control dragon and Rift Herald setups, forcing Tryndamere into unfavorable fights.
Leverage (R) in teamfights and skirmishes to engage and burst down priority targets quickly.
Deny Tryndamere free farm and side-lane pressure by timely counter-ganks and cross-map plays to prevent his scaling and splitpush impact.
