Taric is Fun As Hell Now. GJ With That

Taric was literally the first champion I played in League and I thought the game was awful because of it. Eventually I started playing him as a support properly, he can be very strong as a support but he was always so dull and straightforward. The Support role is all about decision making I feel, and Taric damn near plays himself. Also when things went south he didn't have many options, his had a single target stun and a pathetic heal.

Now I actually feel like I have decisions to make. His new stun mechanic is just far more interesting and it feels good when you land it, as opposed to just pointing and clicking on someone. You can now also stun multiple people so you it's possible to save carries from dives now. Playing around with his W mechanic is extremely fun.

I'm still not a big fan of his ultimate though....I mean the guy was a Paladin you could have done anything with, hell just keep his old one. I can see it becoming such a balancing issue, I mean he can make turret dives even easier then Alistar. Now to be fair Taric was always a good diver due to all the armor he has and strong self heal, but if you W a jungler with any type of gap closer or CC, it's GG when you ult.

I'm just not a fan of immunity nonsense period. We have enough of it, Kayle, Kindred, Tryndemere, etc. I can see it becoming a huge balancing issue.

I think Taric is really balanced. He's super kitable, his stun is tricky to land, and his E and R have pretty substantial charge ups. That, tacked onto his now very massive mana costs and I'd say he's got his ups and downs. I absolutely love the new kit.

Now I'm kinda thrilled on trying him.. for kinda obvious reasons.

How often is he getting banned, is the question.
