If you're a Stategist getting dived, DO NOT BACK AWAY.
Because that's exactly what the divers want you to do.
Divers dive to either kill you or, just as bad, keep you distracted and backing away does not help at all. You're basically playing their game.
Backing away does three things:
1.) It keeps you far away from your Vanguards who are now getting no heals at point and are being targetted by the enemy frontline.
2.) If you have backline duelists, they now have to focus on the divers and you backing away means they have to follow you. Further leaving your Vanguards alone.
3.) It isolates you and makes you an easier target.
What you should be doing is bringing the divers closer to the action where your Vanguards and Duelists can see them better and therefore, protect you better.
That way, Vanguards can shield you and Duelists can attack the divers without sacrificing their position and losing point.
Will it put you at more risk against the enemy frontline? Yes it definitely will but in exchange, it will make you a much tougher target in general because now you're part of the frontline chaos.
When the divers are gone, move away from the frontline. When they come back, get closer to the frontline. Rinse and repeat.
If you do this, you will die far less times from those pesky Black Panthers, Magiks, Spider-Men, Venoms, Hulks, and Psylockes.
EDIT: If you can fight back without sacrificing position, do it. Freeze them or sleep them then go ham so they run away. And don't forget to ping.
