Matchup Summary
What the Data Means

Spirit Fire (E) is the ability Diana has to respect, just as Nasus plays around Crescent Strike. Level six shifts things: Moonfall on one side, Fury of the Sands on the other.
Both champions are melee (Diana at 150, Nasus at 125), so the matchup is decided by cooldowns rather than reach.
