Itemization vs Dyadia (Support):

Damage Dealers:
• Build penetration items to kill Dyadia faster. Shadow Ripper or Void Staff depending on damage type.
• Anti-heal if Dyadia has sustain mechanics.

Tanks/Warriors:
• Stack dual resists + HP. Prioritize defensive stats matching the most fed enemy carry.
• If Dyadia isn't the only threat, build for the enemy team's primary damage profile.

Core strategy when laning against Dyadia:

• Levels 1-3 are your best window. Most heroes are weakest before their ultimate. Trade aggressively early.
• Track cooldowns. Bait out Dyadia's key ability, then punish during the cooldown window.
• Control wave position. Don't mindlessly push — a frozen wave near your tower sets up easy jungle ganks.
• Ping your jungler. Let them know when Dyadia's Flash or escape is on cooldown for guaranteed kills.
• Vision is life. Ward the river brush. If you don't see the enemy jungler, assume they're coming for you.

How to handle Dyadia in teamfights:

• Deny comfortable positioning. Control vision around flank routes so Dyadia can't find an easy angle.
• Save hard CC for Dyadia specifically. Don't waste stuns, knockups, or suppression on the enemy tank — Dyadia is the real threat.
• The moment Dyadia uses their mobility/escape cooldown is your kill window. Call for immediate focus fire.
• If Dyadia hasn't shown yet, don't hard commit. Wait for them to reveal before fully engaging.
• Spread your formation. Clumping together lets Dyadia hit everyone with AoE. Keep some distance between teammates.

Ban Phase:
• If your team lacks reliable ways to shut down Dyadia and the enemy might pick it — ban it.
• Dyadia's ban priority increases at higher ranks where players can maximize the champion's potential.

Pick Phase:
• Don't first-pick Dyadia. It invites counter-picks.
• If the enemy has already locked a known Dyadia counter (e.g. Wukong, Musashi, Ying), seriously reconsider picking Dyadia.
• Dyadia shines with specific team compositions. Communicate with your team about playstyle before locking in.
