Lore
Stealthily skulking in the shadows, Diana is a hired killer. Once upon a time, she was one of the Order of the Mother Serpent’s own – with some pretty radical opinions to boot! But now it’s all about Bilgewater, that seedy port city full of gangsters and smugglers who seek her services as an assassin in their never-ending feuds. The art for this skin shows Diana mid-mission at the docks illuminated by moonlight: dressed like a pirate or adventurer – and with an elegant glowing stone around her neck – she looks absolutely stylish. Her sword stands out too; its upper part designed like a rapier; very sharp indeed!
Concept and Inspiration
Dark Waters Diana is a skin inspired by the Dark Waters line. Despite not obvious water features at first glance, there are waves beneath her feet that hint otherwise. She’s styled as an adventurer rather than a pirate, complete with an ornamental rapier-like crescent blade. While the blues of her particles bring personality to the design they don’t pack the punch we’d expect from modern skins. Splashes of different depths give variances to all abilities but sadly lack darkness in their soundscape – resulting in a monotonous tone that’s more disappointing than poetic!
Design, Sound Effects and Animations
Diana’s sporting sumptuous leather and the trendiest hat, plus a new set of textures and model. Her VFX for spells? Dark magic in the form of mesmerizing waters that brings her unique identity to life. Plus, an eye-catching recall animation where she disappears into a perilous whirlpool! And hear that? Those are all new sound effects – aquatic sorcery paired with VO processing to give off an echoey underwater vibe. Who said style can’t be dangerous?
Unique features
Dark Waters Diana truly stands out from the crowd of other skins, thanks to several one-of-a-kind features. Get ready for a wow moment once you witness the mesmerizing VFX as she casts her spells using dark, mysterious water manipulation effects. But that’s not all! Her recall animation is something else – talk about drama! The whirlpool created under Diana right before she dives into it looks deadly and intense. Plus, unlike other skins, her sound effects have an underwater magic tinge with an echoing effect that creates a totally distinct atmosphere. Unbelievable stuff!

Dark Waters Diana is easy enough to buy from the official League of Legends store for 1350 Riot Points. Also, if you need an account with Dark Waters Diana then you can always find the right one at Smurfmania.com for a nice price.
