Taliyah is not OP enough

So, the q is cool. I like the W push... her E is garbage... and it kinda works with each other, but it's all not interconnected enough.

Ideas:

  • Make her other skills interact with worked ground
  1. Her Q should, instead of dealing decreased damage with each successive hit, deal INCREASED damage; starting from a lower damage point. And make her WG Q do a set amount of damage. Maybe give it %health.

    • Think about it, when you're being pelted with rocks, wouldn't each successive hit do MORE damage than the last, not less?
  2. Now, if she casts her W on Worked Ground, it should cause it to cast instantly, and do slightly less damage.

    • Being pushed by a solid rock vs. being pushed by a gravel pile. Hell, while we're at it, the remainder of the the lessened damage should do splash damage around the push circle in that amount.
  3. How you gonna make a new type of movement restriction called "Grounded" and not give it to the girl who THROWS GROUND AT YOU? Her E should apply a slow, and cause grounded status if people get caught in it. And just not to make it cheap, that should only be the case on Worked Ground. Cast your E on worked ground, it causes grounded status to dashers and the pushed, AND still explodes.

    • Bunch of gravel's hard to dash in. Hard to move in at all. Stay there, Dasher. Quit prancin' around. You're grounded. Cancel Christmas.
  4. Her R should do damage. She's hurling a giant wall of rock at you... that violently pushes you aside when it hits you... That's damage dammit. I don't care how much damage it does cough(alot,after getting proper mag pen)cough

    • Also, Idk if she can... But she should be able to smite from atop the wall. I've tried it, but idk if it worked.

The surfing is great, I don't know how one would improve on that... So... Cool. Good job. cough{FASTER}cough...

Whew. Excuse me.

So... agree? Disagree? Maybe give her the ol' spell shield of sand while in surf for more than 10 seconds? Or when over WG? Or more resistances as she comes off her R? I notice she can't enter the fray in a good route blocking with the wall, without sacrificing herself. Maybe give her resistances based on her health? She does rely on Rylaj's. item 3116

Taliyah would have fit into the game 5 years ago. She cannot exist in a game where CertainlyT is a champion designer. She doesn't have 5 passives and multi-cast actives that interact with each other, she can't compete.

Why you want to make a champion OP? This is the first time I hear someone asking for the opposite of balancing a champion

Because she isn't rock-like enough. She should be a mini Malphite. Slighter harder to kill than most mages, but still as damaging.

Plus, even with her WG movement speed boost, she doesn't have enough get out to be a useful champ. What, with being able to be knocked off ur wall, and everything.

She gets caught all the time, because chase champs can catch her super easy.

If nothing else, her E should at least cause Grounded. Ijs.

She is fine the way she is.
