2XKO Fan Art - Diana


Diana is probably my favorite League of Legends character, so I wanted to imagine what she could possibly look like in 2XKO! I think she would either be a rushdown or shoto character~As a long time fighting game fan, I'm so happy to see some of my favorite characters get their own fighting game versions!Wanted to keep the spirit of her original outfit while taking inspiration from her Sessions, LoR, and Wild Rift looks! I also wanted to give the vibes of a wanderer, since she is a heretic in her original homeland on Mt. TargonThis is fan art! 2XKO/Diana belong to Riot Games
