Lux vs Diana

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Lux is a long-range artillery mage who must maintain distance and control the lane with poke and binding threat.
Use lane pressure to deny Diana's short trades and prevent her from safely engaging with Diana Q + Diana E.

Trading pattern

Trade by poking with E and punishing Diana's oversteps with Q root into burst damage.
Avoid reckless Q usage since missing it leaves you open to Diana's all-in with Diana Q + Diana E.
Capitalize on Diana's E cooldown downtime to pressure and poke safely.

Danger windows

When Diana's Diana Q and Diana E are up, she can all-in with high burst; keep distance.
Missing Q opens you to Diana's predictable all-in combo; avoid overextending after missed Q.
Diana's level 6 Diana R enables strong all-in and teamfight presence; respect this spike.

Early game

Poke with E early to chip Diana's health before she can commit to all-ins.
Respect Diana's Q cooldown and punish her if she misses it by landing Q and follow-up burst.
Use W to shield yourself against Diana's burst combo when she commits.

Power spikes

Major spikes: Level 6 R unlock for Lux and Diana's level 3 Q-W-E burst combo.
Respect Diana's level 6 R as a strong all-in threat that can force you to play cautiously.
First completed mage item significantly boosts Lux's poke and burst potential.

Win conditions

Use Q + E poke to keep Diana low and prevent her from engaging safely.
Punish Diana's missed Diana Q and E cooldowns with burst trades and zone control.
Reach level 6 and item spikes to leverage R for long-range burst and secure kills or force recalls.

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