Diana is actually piled with power, but she has no way to use most of it.

Her passive means she needs loads of attack speed BUT her melee range means she needs at least a couple of tank items to be a frontline. Sadly, this is League Of Legends so you can't have both.

Her awesome AP ratio on her Q>R> autoattack >Q>R combo also tempts her to go a DFG/Deathcap/Lich Bane path because she can explode any squishy this way, but again, her kit is awkward  - she's melee and she pulls people towards herself with her E. She's not supposed to build attack speed and DFG, right?

So people end up going for awkward builds such as Randuin's Omen, Deathcap, Zhonyas, Abyssal Scepter and stuff like that and they usually end up not being neither a strong tank nor a decent assassin.
