Diablo without mystic dispersion

We all know he slaps and one of the best mystic champions in the game. My question is how viable is he without mystic dispersion?
I don't run mystic dispersion and have no intention to do so as I run suicides and full deep wounds.

He's fine, your gonna be using mostly SP1 anyways.

Maybe back off on Deep Wounds a bit and share some of those points with MD? I do. But I have a lot of great mystic champs who I use often.

MD makes him more fun on buff matchups and also makes his sp3 poisons longer lasting. That's about it. So no, not needed.

His main selling point is his survivability, especially with suicides. You'll be spamming sp1 often. I run suicides and MD, but I still only toss sp2 after an sp3 or when I'm accidentally pushed there.

Agree with the comments above, and would add that I don't use him as a primary control & nullify champ. If it's a fight where that's essential I'm using Doom or SymSupreme. Using Diablo for poison & sustainability, and for more general lane clearing.

He is great even without it.

For most cases, MD is a must for mystic champs. Without MD, they are generally irritating to play since most of their damage is locked behind their specials (think SymSup, Doom, Tigra etc).

Even Diablo, who is pretty good without MD, gains a lot from it by being able to constantly stay in Philosopher.
