Dear Riot, Riot community, and everyone else who complains that Taliyah is OP. Since when did a champion with a 48.9% winrate and a 3.88% playrate become "overpowered"?

Her Q is her main source of damage, Stand behind minions and it's useless. her Shove is not only hard for her to land, but easy for you to dodge. Her E is useless if you dodge her W. But nah, people'll complain that she's op so she can get gutted again, even though twitch's been the strongest champion for over a year now but riot doesn't even care because everyone looooves to play him!

I dont think anyone complained she was. She is just really strong in pro play so they nerfed her. It sucks for us normal people.

^ This. Her Q was leaning on the boarder of too spammable, and although that does not at all translate to her being overpowered, it was being abused in pro play where she can be used very well. She got light mana nerfs for worlds, it wasn't that big of a deal although it is kind of inconvenient. Just switch your masteries up if you haven't already.

Where are you getting these stats from? Before the nerfs she was too strong in both high elo and coordinated play, while also retaining a high playrate.

This is coming from a Taliyah main too, the simple fact is that she was too good.

People who play her a lot get up to a 70% winrate, so they have to balance her around the Taliyah mains and in pros otherwise she will become impossible to play against
