What do you guys think about letting Taliyah use W to launch herself?

It seems riot wants her in a utility mid-laner position with her ult and her passive, I think giving her the ability to cast w on herself to jump over walls and escape ganks would be a nice touch to her kit.

No. She definitely doesn't need it and Riot specifically touched on the issue.

Really, when?

During design/PBE where people asked Riot questions, as well as post-release.

Also, she's less utility and more zoning control, roaming.

Riot stated they believed she did not need the additional safety of being able to self-launch.

That sounds like a pain in the ass to pull off and land.

My only problem is that it would fuck melees even more. Especially since it's size is plenty to hit you and someone trying to get on top of you.

It honestly isn't needed.

That would make it too similar to a Ziggs's W.
That mean Tali players would save it as an escape rather than using it for the EW or WE combo. You know, her MAIN damage combo.
