#what champs have a similar playstyle like Diana?

Katarina is similar too
Diana mid or jungle?
Vi (though AD instead of AP)
If Jungle, maybe Xin Zao?
Ekko is the most similar, Vi and Xin Zhao are AD with a similar mentality. Nocturne is also fairly similar.
Gwen/Ekko
I'd say Xin is more similar than Ekko technically speaking
Xin has the ranged attack into gap closer and the ult is somewhat similar
Ekko ult is completely different and the W would be new too sorta
wtf are youguys on about how is VI even close to diana
diana full clearning ganking champ VI is perma ganking not clearing
Vi clears just fine (not quite Diana's speed, as Vi is lacking AoE by comparion, but she has % dmg instead)
They function similarly in fights too, they both dive hard onto the person they want to blow up and have repeatable dashes (VI Q has short CD, Q, R, Q again is a lot of stickiness)
Both are pretty good duelists as well.
They are similar because they have a gap closing mechanic to get to melee range, which transitions into cc, procing a shield, and then sticking to a target with low cd gap/re-engage.
The only thing in which they are similar is they both have a dash and a shield, that’s about it
If talking about jungle, xin zhao the closest you can get, like an ad version of diana. If talking ap, Ekko kind of just because he can dash in really so even then not so similar
When comparing champs, I always think about their pilot mentality. What is the ideal situation for them? What effects are they bringing to the team? Specifically what button you press, or how fast you clear the jg affects tempo and pathing, but not the mentality.
Diana can build to assassinate, or she can build tanky. Vi is a little more limited in build options.
Xin doesn't have that much burst, Vi and Diana have a lot of burst damage.
and Vi isn't that limited in build options she can anything from basically assassin to almost juggernaut levels of tank
Xin, hit ability, dash in, attack speed on ability usage, stick to targets. Diana same exact thing, only difference is diana clumps up people in ulti and xin pushes all except one
the play pattern is at first similar, but all divers are like that
