Taliyah is unplayable in patch 6.18

I'm a Taliyah main. when she came out i picked her up and thought she was pretty good, later on i got 150,000 points on her with masterie lvl 7. Her skill shots and other mechanics made it difficult at first but I learned it. I got myself into silver 3 with her (not good at ranked) and loved ever moment I played her. In an average game with her i was ruffly 12/4 ish, after this patch my KDR is around 5/10. WTF! how did riot screw with a balanced champ that not many people play. i don't understand. i mean in lane her pushing was really good, even to good but 50%, 50% DMG taken away on minions from her q. WTF! I don't have with her anymore and I thought riot made the game to make everyone happy, even the one trick Taliyah mains. i just had to get it out. i find it really unfair to do such a hard nerf even before worlds, I've even her her name used to describe stuff in future patches. "oh i hope this champ dose not get Taliyahed", "oh this champ got Taliyahed and I've lost interest in that champ.

Thank you for reading my rant. I just wont the old Taliyah back, or something closer to it.

She is still good. maybe you think too high about yourself

She is still great vs champions, the problem with her now is 100% her laning. She can't push lane without a ton of mana or droughting out her workspace by abusing threaded volley.

chances are shes gonna get buffed again after worlds. patch 6.18 is the worlds patch, thats why all the cs picks were nerfed, and people like lee sin buffed

I am new to this, but why would they ruin the core of characters for worlds? would that not really muff builds that people have worked on?

Well they obliterated Azir not too long ago, not to mention champs like Kalista and Corki who have been nerfed like mad for professional play.

It isn't just ruining builds, it's making people not want to play the champion at all. Taliyah now needs a lot more worked ground to push her lane which she neds to do to properly roam - in other words, it's not worth picking her anymore.

I hope not. she's good right now. any more buffs and she will be back to oppressive wave clearing freak

They shouldn't have nerfed her wave clear. Her ultimate is so useless since you can't roam because it takes forever to have clear now. So you'll just lose turret if you go.
