Taliyah can't receive buffs, but can't she at least get Quality of Life fixes?

Riot refuses to even touch her E and W aside from nerfing them. It's been a year and yet her Seismic Shove, her main CC spell, doesn't even have a proper targeting indicator. Something as trivial as Graves's ult has a cone indicator showing its blast radius near the end. Even Smart Cast abilities like Karthus's Q and Yasuo's Q have targeting indicators showing the range or radius of the skill when you hover your cursor over the ability. It honestly boggles my mind that Taliyah's main method of self-peel and main spacing tool doesn't even show how big its radius is BEFORE you cast it.

I use Normal Cast because I like to see where I'm aiming beforehand and it's annoying how I can't preemptively see my knockup's radius. Even after playing the game for such a long time, I simply cannot process in my head that this: http://i.imgur.com/itQo4wb.jpg equals to this: http://i.imgur.com/hzc8HN1.jpg . Especially since every other circular, knockup ability in the game has a proper AoE targeting indicator. Chogath's Q, Velkoz's E, Malphite's R, and even Orianna's R all show their radius.

This tells almost nothing about what Seismic Shove does: http://i.imgur.com/tsakHir.jpg This doesn't show the radius and its misleading to the eyes because it gives the impression it's a linear skillshot like Viktor's E, not an AoE circular spell like Chogath's Q.

Seismic Shove's targeting indicator should be something like this: http://i.imgur.com/brb3vq0.jpg This shows where the skill would hit and shows the direction of the shove. This is the same indicator as Gnar's ult, which functions relatively the same as Seismic Shove.

For the sake of keeping things consistent and clear, can we please change Seismic Shove's indicator to look like Gnar's ult?

Honestly Taliyah is one of those champions I feel was hard core rushed and that it greatly hurt her theme.

I feel so sorry for you. You main a champion who will get nothing but nerfs because of pro play.

What did they mean by this? I can't get her W to push opponents straight up at all.

I can't play Taliyah because the W is hard to use tbh
