Guide to Synergizing Kalista and Diana

Tips for Playing as Kalista with Diana

Rend is a valuable last hitting aid, since its cooldown resets if it kills a target.

Entering a move order once to trigger Martial Poise will not clear Kalista's basic attack target.

Due to her passive, Kalista's Move Speed is effectively increased by Attack Speed.

Advice to Understand How Diana Will Play

Use Moonfall and Lunar Rush to stay on targets and activate Moonsilver Blade for extra damage.

Consider when to cast Lunar Rush without Moonlight and when to wait for another Crescent Strike.

Landing Crescent Strike is critically important, but don't be afraid to miss. The cooldown is short and the mana cost is low.
