I don't think they wanted to drop the R reset, but from an early quick draft of her "new" kit her R dealt no damage at all. The overall goal of her rework is to take away most of her burst (which means reducing her Q scaling a little, as well), but in return give her far better crowd control (her E would get buffed back to its release day state), as well as much better damage over time (her passive attack speed, damage and scaling would all receive massive buffs). Her W would remain pretty much unchanged. This would be a straight buff to jungle Diana, who already looks very strong in the new jungle, but could also shift her laning from mid to top.
