The jungle race — the windows in Bel'Veth's plan

Read from Bel'Veth's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Diana.

StageReadWhy
Level 1 ClearBel'Veth DominantVoid Surge dashes make your trades untouchable against slower kits. Crescent Strike poke is real, but hold the all-in until their combo completes, and before either of you has a second camp down that is not an answer. Take the level-1 crossing and make Diana path away from the camps you want.
Level 2 SkirmishBel'Veth DominantAbove and Below's knock-up sets up a free trade window on cooldown. There is no version of this Diana wins right now — Pale Cascade shield trades let them skirmish evenly with most kits, and that folds on the second camp. Show on their side of the river and take the second buff and the tempo that comes with it.
Level 3 RouteBel'Veth DominantAll four dash directions plus the W knock-up make the extended duel yours. Later in the game this bites, because a landed Crescent Strike into the dash-shield combo trades very hard at three. But as the first scuttle timer lands none of it is online, so take the level-3 river fight and tax every camp Diana concedes.
Levels 4-5 MacroBel'Veth Dominant — Keep FightingYou are the stronger side all through 4-5. Diana knows it — she is farming toward six through 4-5 — Pale Cascade keeps the clear safe and the kill threat is not real yet — so shadow that side of the map and make them fight you anyway.
Level 6 BreakpointEndless Banquet FavouredTrue form turns every objective fight into a feeding frenzy — force them on spawn, while Moonfall's vacuum pull plus the dash-reset combo one-rotations squishier junglers. You win the breakpoint against Diana, not the whole game — cash it on the first objective after both sides hit six.
First Item SpikeKraken Slayer SpikeCompleting your primary damage core triggers an un-matchable physical damage acceleration loop that completely melts epic monsters and champions alike. Your clear is on autopilot, letting you instantly secure lane priority grids before rotating into neutral pits. Diana's first item turns the Q-dash-Moonfall rotation from a chunk into a kill on anything without an escape.
2+ Items ScalingBel'Veth Favoured — Wins LateFrom two items you out-scale Diana. She one-rotations a squishy target and gets a second one free off the Moonfall pull, but none of that beats your full build in a straight fight.
