Okay, in here I'm gonna be very clear.
- There is NO other Key Mastery than Thunderlord's Decree on 
Mid.
Mid.
The DMG at lvl 2-3 combined with his Basic + AA + 
is REALLY strong and will make enemies doubt about trading with you.
- I don't recommend Runic Armor since isn't about lifesteal. I've seen people rush 
and it's pointless imo. Maybe a 
is better, but still, this isn't about lifesteal.

Diana
Medium
As a Diana main too, this matchup is pretty easy until lvl 6 or 7.
- Your early levels are way more powerful than hers and you have shorter cooldowns.
- Try to make her back one or two times so she loses CS and don't trade for long periods of time. Her passive will deal TONS of damage.

and she will try to poke you down to 50%-60% HP and then all-in you.

Ekko
Medium
Ekko is a strong champion who doesn't have a 100% effective counter (Maybe 
) but still, is a melee champion with a strong poke 
, a really long stun 
(if landed), a blink 
and a explosive ultimate 
that will heal him, do damage and prevent his death.
- Avoid his 
specially his back, because it deals more damage.

smartly.Assassin Wukong Back to Top
is an aggresive champion as an Assassin, and it's completely overrated right now.
-The new item 
gives him a lot of killing potential.
-All the items that are good on Wukong ( 
) have Armor Penetration, which combined with his (30% Armor Reduction) practically shreds armor instantly.
-3 of these items grant Movement Speed ( ) and combined with 
and 
can be fast as a freaking Sonic.
-I wouldn't recommend going 
since you already have a lot of armor pen (Could work against 
). grants better stats and replaces this item well enough.
). Laning Phase Back to Top
- Wukong as an assassin will play like most of the Assassins. Small trades and then all-in at 50% hp-ish.
- + AA + with Thunderlord's is your basic combo and the one you will use 90% of the time in lane.
