Taric abilitiy delays

Coitus Hiatus··1 votes·422 views

Taric's stun and ult need either a shorter delay or in the stun's case no delay at all.

Its ridiculous when you have Morgana/Sivir insta spell blocking because you cant bait a shield out of them when your abilities are so telegraphed.

My stun can potentially hit the entire enemy team. A delay is necessary.

No, both are fine, Taric is very strong as is, he is in a fine spot. Yes, spell shields like Sivir and Morgana counter Taric rather hard. That's okay. Mobility spells counter skill shots, but that doesn't mean skill shots need to fire out in an instant laser. Just play around their cooldowns and abilities.

If Taric was that fine and in a good spot, we would see more Taric but we don't. Because playmaking support like Thresh or Blitzcrank are more safer and their spell doesn't have real delay or telegraphed distance for the enemy. I'm sorry but your comment is invalid, Taric is weak since his rework and is still weak. He could use buff to get in line with engage support.

He very recently, maybe 2 patches ago, got a slight rework to some of his abilities that drastically increased his playrate and defiantly buffed him. Also support item changes, that were negative for champions like Bard, actually helped Taric alot and go well with his kit.

Thresh absolutely is telegraphed, that's how people can know when to flash to get away from his hook. It's a short delay but it is there. Plus, those two abilities (thresh and blitz hooks) only affect one person, it is not uncommon to get two people stuns, and if you position well (or they position poorly) you can even get 3 or 4 people in a stun.

Also, he not only brings a great stun but one of the most powerful teamfighting ults in the game (situationally), as well as a decent shield and crazy good heals, if you max his heals first (which is now viable after his Q buffs that I mentioned).

Since it sounds like you haven't played thresh or Taric, maybe your comment is invalid hun.

Yes, he might want a buff, but removing or reducing at all the delay is broken and stupid. It's already only one second, I've been able to stun tristanas and ezreals before they can jump away before (when their jump is up).

I have 65k mastery 7 with Taric so saying i don't know how he work or played him is wrong. For thresh i used to play him on my past account but don't bought him on this one so you can consider i've ''never played him'' but i know how his kit work pretty well. And maxing Q is still fairly odd to do since it's mana cost increase alot even if it got reduced . I prefered his old burst heal, that you were able to heal yourself for a better amount. It was making Taric solo lane viable, right now you can't rely on this to survive, unless you are facing an ad with no real crowd control or mobility. I just liked how Taric had 3 damage spell combined to utility + his passive. Now you have 1 damage spell, rest is utility. I loved to be able to smash enemy face with my damage combo while keeping my allies safe in same time, not being able to do any damage.

Personally the ult could use maybe 0.5 to max 1 second delay removed but the stun without delay would be pretty damn strong. Only the ult could use a smaller delay but not to much.
