I love the idea that no solari has ever seen the moon. Like they just blanked out the other big circle in the sky in their minds and diana just felt insane that no one else seemed to notice the moon's existence.
Diana: i am LITERALLY the aspect of the moon! What do you mean it's not real!? Solari mfs: i dunno man, you coulda gotten those phenomenal cosmic powers anywhere. **And thus Diana left, done with everyone's bullshit**
You absolute madman, you still did the friday casual review even with the hand numbness. I hope you're better now Nicky, stay safe and take care of your Salad Fingers
I still can't believe they put Diana in the Ruination instead of Lewis the gator, like, it's still baffling how litte she actually contributed to the story as the LITERAL GODDESS OF THE MOON
I love how this gameplay started with Diana and divulged into ruination. God that event left everyone scarred.. I also agree with the dusk blade hate. It negates a lot of the risk of all-in assassins which is just unfun Rito
The best part of Diana is in LoR: Zoe: "Are you part-person, part-moon or the actual moon... moon?" Diana: "I am mortal and divine, and moon moon." I just love this interaction.
Im really curious about how leona got affected during her ascension, diana and taric seem to be very true to themselves but atreus got completely taken over by the pantheon. I hope they go over how leona mightve been slowly warped but her connection to diana keeps her 'grounded'
The Lunari love monday and hate sunday while the Solari do the opposite. And that's why there is a war: they cannot agree on where to place the week-end
Sentinels of light was 2 years ago and still manage to make people lose their minds, awesome. Who is the next champion who is also part of SOL that nikki has to review? When aprox is gonna be reviewed?
@@Underworlder5 Well dunno what to tell you but the wiki states otherwise, now it's up to Nick to decide who he's gonna review next week but he himself wrote that Mundo is befor Draven, I'm not saying it's right but it is what it is
Vayne's new weapon didn't make sense either, because she used Silver Bolts before she joined the group, which has been stated to ALSO be able to kill the ghostie bois.
I’m sitting here at at 4 am having continuous fever dreams and am trying to find anything to keep me awake for a bit so i can relax- then I see a new casual champ review, thanks nicky
I think that Diana and Leona should not have any of the opposing metal on their designs, until such a time as they actually form a peace between their people. Until then they should strictly wear the colours of their faith.
I kinda agree, feels a little odd that they would still think of each other by copying color schemes, especially since they seem to be trying to prove eachother wrong. But it also helps keep these characters connected in a visual sense, which is pretty smart since some people wouldn’t even know these two have interconnected story lines if it wasn’t for RUclipsrs constantly mentioning it.
I think it makes more sense to push Diana towards being more of a fighter/bruiser/skirmisher. She could be a little more tanky like Leona and also not be a discount assassin. Plus we don't have very many AP fighters/skirmishers/bruisers, helping her stand out a little more.
She already is a fighter/bruiser. If you build her right that is. Rod of ages is the best mythic for Diana because (little known fact) Diana w has hp scaling. Also it just works a lot better with her ult.
I main this champ, and I agree with everything. Unfortunately the majority of her skins are pretty trash (exceptions being blood moon and winterblessed, with me having a personal bias for her lunar new year skin)
Hey Nicky. Nice video on my favorite champ. Some comments though. 1. Diana and Leona need more lore than they have right now, it kinda just stopped when Diana left the solari civilization, would love to see how them being apart impacts them. 2. Diana and Leona need to be in a skin line together, nuff said. 3. Diana should not build assassin, especially after the durability update and with rod of ages being released, also tank Diana is cringe and I’m ashamed of any Diana “main” that builds it.
@@antonisnicolaou9212 I mean the skin (in splash art) is probably cho’gaths best. But trying to texture fuzziness on a very old model looks incredibly weird, leading the more carapace texture that standard Cho has looking a lot cleaner.
I feel like u rlly looked over Diana literally committing genocide and killing a large amount of solari and just boiling it down to Leona being a jackass.
All I'm sayin is on release Pantheon and Leo were definitely being set up to be a couple, then Diana was made later and they changed it. Its irrelevant now cause Pantheon and Leo's lore is totally changed so they basically have nothing together anymore anyway, but I do think its worth pointing out that Leo Diana is a later addition.
No Leona's own writters confirmed that she was written to be a lesbian long before it was confirmed that she was a lesbian and ppl can be friends and diana only came out a bit more then a year after leona so that Leona and diana came later is bullshit Leona's lore before diana before Leona's lore was only about her
Boyo, Yone and Yasuo are not assassins...at least they weren't conceived as such. They are SKIRMISHERS, so they are thus in a similar vein to guys like Riven, Jax, Fiora, Master ShYit, Tryndamere, etc. I will, however, concede to you that the fact that their burst damage can be so high as to match that of characters that were actually conceived as assassins isn't really a sign of good and healthy design. :D P.S. Diana is now more of a diver than an assassin. Although she undoubtedly has good burst, she can definitely build a lot tankier than an assassin should be able to and has pretty consistent damage output thanks for her three hit passive. So she definitely feels a lot more similar to people like Jarvan IV or Xin Zhao than to someone like Talon, Katarina or Zed.
Your cringe. Instead build rod into nash. Slightly less tanks but more damage. The follow up with either a demonic or zhonya’s (whatever the situation calls for)
Being honest, I'm not much a fan of Leona x Diana ship that turned canon as the yers had passed. I mean, with the shit ton of fanart and stuff about the two and the whole Sun and Moon thing, it was bound to happen... Like Caitlyn and Vi, Twisted Fate and Graves... and probably Lee Sin and Udyr once the Blind Monk gets an AU. At least it was done better than Varus new story. Still didn't saw much of a need for a rewrite of his story, but it was much of a major rework overall.
@@GoldLight73 they loved eachother wen they where young not anymore and diana's own writters said that she was always ment to like Leona but riot did not like that idea back then also Katarina and garen aslo trys to kill eachother why are the wlw one not ok but the straight one is
@@pokemonlover4894 They don't love each other anymore, but Riot continues to put Diana and Leona together, in their adult forms, every time they release Pride Month artwork. Also, I never even mentioned Katarina and Garen, but I think those two are also handled abysmally. They fought for like five minutes on a rooftop and are now in love, supposedly. I don't care whether a ship is straight or not. In fact some of my favorite fictional ships LGBT. The only thing I care about is whether or not the relationship is well-written, and League unfortunately doesn't do romances well in general.
Why jungle Diana? Why T2 boots rush? Why protobelt? (actually Nicky went night harvester which is good, fuck protobelt, 0 reasons to build it on Diana, the majority is wrong) Actually whatever, idc But Diana's best skins are Dark Waters, Dragon Slayer and Battle Queen.
wait, next week is MUNDO not Draven...
This is a great day
So you are counting the “DR” for Mundo. Was going to ask at some point
Love me some Mundo, LETS GOOO
Hope your hand is feeling better
Mundo Goes where he pleases
@@japhettheprophet4619 he does and nobody can stop him
I love the idea that no solari has ever seen the moon. Like they just blanked out the other big circle in the sky in their minds and diana just felt insane that no one else seemed to notice the moon's existence.
The Runeterra equivalent of flat-earthers
Yeah. Like all religious people, they’re kinda dumb.
(All religious people is a joke don’t get an aneurysm cause I made a joke on the interweb.
yes lmaoo
Diana: i am LITERALLY the aspect of the moon! What do you mean it's not real!?
Solari mfs: i dunno man, you coulda gotten those phenomenal cosmic powers anywhere.
**And thus Diana left, done with everyone's bullshit**
You can’t fight the illogical with logic
Diana: “I FEEL LIKE I’M TAKING CRAZY PILLS!”
Solaris when they see the glowing orb in the sky during the night: must be the wind.
@@kauanjos3199no.. Solaris canonically can't see the moon. Diana is one of those exemptions
"I'm having a stroke even remembering the sentinels of light event"
same Nicki... same.
-Sincerely, a Diana main
You absolute madman, you still did the friday casual review even with the hand numbness. I hope you're better now Nicky, stay safe and take care of your Salad Fingers
Diana skill floor be like
I still can't believe they put Diana in the Ruination instead of Lewis the gator, like, it's still baffling how litte she actually contributed to the story as the LITERAL GODDESS OF THE MOON
Most of the cast for sentinel of light did not make sense
Yorick? Maokai? Kalista? Hecarim? Nah bro let's bring Irelia 💀
@@AndresLopez-st3lz does any of the champions you mentioned come from ionia?
@@pokemonlover4894 3 of those champions have direct connections to fucking Viego...
@@HeirofDacia the point of the event was a champion from each region to be apart of it and is kallista and the horse not helping veigo
Most league channels cut out farming to show kills. Nah at 4:45 nicky cuts the kill for farming. Absolute gigachad
Indeed
i love this series so much its a nice comfort series that i can look forward to each week!
I love how this gameplay started with Diana and divulged into ruination. God that event left everyone scarred.. I also agree with the dusk blade hate. It negates a lot of the risk of all-in assassins which is just unfun Rito
And it’s been needed because non assassin’s are building the item. So hooray!
The best part of Diana is in LoR:
Zoe: "Are you part-person, part-moon or the actual moon... moon?"
Diana: "I am mortal and divine, and moon moon."
I just love this interaction.
Liona is basically that one scene from Despicable Me but replace steal with kill
“We are going to KILL the MOON!”
Im really curious about how leona got affected during her ascension, diana and taric seem to be very true to themselves but atreus got completely taken over by the pantheon. I hope they go over how leona mightve been slowly warped but her connection to diana keeps her 'grounded'
Yeah ascension seems very different from person to person
I love these, Nickyboi, they're so 'relaxing' to have in the background during my own matches, or whatever else.
The Lunari love monday and hate sunday while the Solari do the opposite. And that's why there is a war: they cannot agree on where to place the week-end
This series is the only thing that makes me remember which day of the week it is
And now it's messed up!
As one of varus flowers from lor say " solari , lunari , deluded fools "
Sentinels of light was 2 years ago and still manage to make people lose their minds, awesome. Who is the next champion who is also part of SOL that nikki has to review? When aprox is gonna be reviewed?
Next one is Graves and he will be reviewed in 15 weeks, but a character that was also in the Ruination was Draven who's turn is in 2 weeks
@@SKtasaras draven is next week. the week after that is dr mundo
@@Underworlder5 Well the site states otherwise
@@SKtasaras i checked the launcher. in alphabetial order, draven is listed before mundo. also, nick outright says in the end that draven is next

One thing i do like about diana was her login screen from WAAAY back had lyrics.. it was nice
It was nice. Didn’t main her until the rework though.
I love the solari and Lunari lore I just wish it whas expanded on more
Vayne's new weapon didn't make sense either, because she used Silver Bolts before she joined the group, which has been stated to ALSO be able to kill the ghostie bois.
I'm still counting down the days until K for Kog'Maw. I'm a Kog main and seemingly no other channel properly appreciates the little fella
Y’know he’s not playing kog adc right?
@@GameGuinAzul I don't care if he plays AP Kog or AD Kog, I'm happy either way

I think that Diana and Leona should not have any of the opposing metal on their designs, until such a time as they actually form a peace between their people. Until then they should strictly wear the colours of their faith.
Well... if the Riot MMO resolves that Targon story, the designs will age better now i guess.
I kinda agree, feels a little odd that they would still think of each other by copying color schemes, especially since they seem to be trying to prove eachother wrong. But it also helps keep these characters connected in a visual sense, which is pretty smart since some people wouldn’t even know these two have interconnected story lines if it wasn’t for RUclipsrs constantly mentioning it.
@@GameGuinAzul maybe, but if they are going to do that it should be very subtle, not spread throughout the design like with Leona.
I've been playing Lol for quite a while and totally forgot about her old ult. Thank you for reminding me of it.
We need a Diana and Leona skin together like we got with Caitlyn and Vi
I argued with a guy once who was adamant that assassins should always be able to escape if needs be if they don’t get a kill.
So a tank with knives?
_laughs in Rhaast_
I really love how the *HeARch* at the end has become a staple of this series
Really happy to see you post the review today
I hope them fingers are okay

Diana is one of those champions you have trouble bringing yourself to play without a skin, she looks boring
I main this champ, and I agree with everything. Unfortunately the majority of her skins are pretty trash (exceptions being blood moon and winterblessed, with me having a personal bias for her lunar new year skin)
Good thing winterblessed diana is a thing!

yep the fact that they don't have a skin together yet is a crime
Blood Moon Diana DOES have the mask on in game… always check the in game models and close to never the splash arts, the splash arts can be whatever
Cho’gaths newest skin proves this, splash art is amazing, model looks worst than standard.
@@GameGuinAzul I actually really like that skin lol, but I mean he has better ones, but still it’s a good skin lol. There are better examples imo
@@antonisnicolaou9212 I mean the skin (in splash art) is probably cho’gaths best. But trying to texture fuzziness on a very old model looks incredibly weird, leading the more carapace texture that standard Cho has looking a lot cleaner.
blood moon still keeps the mask on, her recall is her taking it off and breaking it
Blood moon Diana has her mask on all the time except in the splash art and in a part of her recall
I love que ending my fridays with these
Her login screen was great too!! I think it was the first with actual vocals?
I feel like u rlly looked over Diana literally committing genocide and killing a large amount of solari and just boiling it down to Leona being a jackass.
9:35 bro has a stroke trying to place wards
Nicky, have you done a review/discussion of previous events and their lore (or lack there of?)
Oh boy cant wait to see mundo next week!!!
Can't believe that Jhin got away.. wp!
Also, great video ofc
Hold up- me and Diana share the same birthday?? hey thats kinda sick

20 more weeks bois before the Ivern

I quite like Diana with a bit of gold accentation, myself
I forget Dianas an assassin I've been building demonic + nashors into a tank item for so long
Your cringe. Instead build rod into nash. Slightly less tanks but more damage. The follow up with either a demonic or zhonya’s (whatever the situation calls for)
This series aint half bad (ive never missed an episode)
leona got solaripilled
as a diana fan i will not be watching this, but will drop a like anyways
in the early days of my league career i really hated her making the sound diana makes when she dies my favorite in the game lol
Any one see the double passive proc at 7:48 ?
We at D champions Dipshits
deosn't she have the same color cheme than Camille ?
Yasuo and Yorick Smash
Pls keep doing those noises at the end of the video
LETS GO LESBIANS
Isnt it Dr. Mundo first before Draven
i checked the LoL launcher. alphabetically it lists draven before mundo. i guess it counts as A coming before M, rather than a period coming before A
diana is my fav champ u just have to play different build
I only play WR cause I don't have the PC for League. As a Diana main I would like to plead, stop nerfing her thighs in her other skins dammit
Shyvana.
EVEN WITH THE CARPAL TUNNEL???
Turns out it wasn't carpal tunnel, you can see it in the community tab
Maybe you should still get your hands checked. Not trying to be spooky but it could be a sign of something else.
