so ive people complain about the taric adc "boosting" strat and i gotta say we dont need to nerf it, we dont need to destroy every strat because some youtuber makes a vid on how """busted""" it is taric adc can get shit on by almost any adc the laning phase can be pretty bad and even if hes the adc hes still super relient on teammates and good communication tarics stun is also kinda difficult to land hes good during teamfights taric can be super weak, he chugs through mana hes a late game god though due to item 3001 its also almost useless in solo queue because if you try and play taric adc half the time your teams gonna think youre trolling or your sup is gonna pick a adc we dont need to destroy every single odd strat i can promise you if taric gets nerfed he will be useless people will complain about a tank adc while Vayne gets to run around rampant

The only reason it works is because of the synchronization his abilities have with his passive, which causes his quick auto attacks to let him use his abilities again quickly, which lets in get more empowered auto attacks.

To be frank, adc Taric is about as bland as gimmicks get. If you cc him he is virtually useless and even if you don’t your adc, if they have half a brain, can just kite him around. Yes, him being paired with Sona is annoying but there are counters to it, just like virtually every other lane pairing in the game.

I’m so sick of Supports getting nerfed because somebody plays them outside of their designated role and nobody has the incentive to figure out how to counter it.

i mean the man has popped up a lot recently in terms of boosting strats. some of the most cancer ones at that, like yi.

also sona taric actually is busted, because it abuses the same 0 cs strat toplane, but botlane, while having near infinite sustain because of item 3097 + sona while both packing revitalize and guardian from taric.

granted tho, burst trades on sona or gw work pretty well but it doesnt make it any less cancer tbh.

Taric is played in pros, Vayne is not

I rest my case, LP officers arrest this man

Rito nerf Zed pls.

Riot: What's that you said? - 5 armor nerf to Lissandra? Ok!

Taric is barely playable in any uncoordinated team anyway because ppl usually can't make a single use of your ult and can't line up for your (already well aimed) stun.

Remember when the problem was Yi MasterYi ? And they still nerfed Taric?

These geniuses have no idea what they are doing, so expect anything over and over again ;)

Relax man. [edited by moderation - Ulanopo]

Taric is well balanced champion, it's just that a combo has been found and happens to be powerful af.

A kit with team invulnerability and CC is inherently super busted in pro play and will be abused one way in another. They should revert his rework back when he was more of a bruiser.

Nerf sona , not taric

Scottsc204/16/2019, 9:13:38 PM2 votes

Why? It's busted as all hell in pro play and high elo solo queue, even duos at low elo can use it to great effect. Also, if you think that it's picked for the laning phase, you obviously have never even seen the strategy. I agree about Vayne though, she's more busted than Taric. Nerf them both.

Nerf Kleptomancy

Problem solved

Issue is that Riot has to admit they made a mistake, like that'll happen lmfao

"DO NOT NERF TARIC" too late, his rework happened eons ago. riot will not revert this meganerf.

I feel as though the problem in this case can be solved by preventing 2 player from grabbing support items in one lane and beniftting from it. This duo would not work if it was not for all the gold and healing they gain so targons i feel would be a good target to prevent this

To fix this I would reduce or remove the gold gained from targons for those who have a support item themselves. Or some change that restricts everyone from all buying support item. Support items should restrict the gold you gain from farming in someway ie you do not gain the same amount of gold from minions as you normally would

Sona should be the one getting nerfed, not Taric.

Sona's also sat at a 54-55% win rate in Solo Queue now for a long time.

Hard Counter to this strat: use 1 of your 5 bans to ban either Taric or Sona.

Solved.

Does Taric and Sona escape ban phase?

Pick a damn juggernaut bot since now you can play a juggernaut without a pesky ADC to poke you, and a pick lux, viegar, brand, etc.

Darius + Lux/Veigar vs Sona+Taric. Guess who wins?

There are tons of other "strats" out there but people just aren't flexible to experiment, that's why you just see them pop from time to time

it's awkward during the Yi Taric strat , they nerfed Taric instead of Yi I made a meme saying Riot will nerf Taric instead and it actually happened ..

Dorans Pants4/16/2019, 4:36:25 PM1 votes

can´t wait for taric getting kneecapped again while I still have to put up with riven, Zed, vayne, vlad and co every game.

You can really only enjoy this game when you main certain champs/classes

Dont even get this shit. As far as I know only one duo's rly been able to make this shit look broke. Qtpie just fed on it, and I've seen it one time and I destroyed them and carried game from bot lane. I do that alot... but this time it was rly ez.

I feel like the problem is more with the Inspiration Runes more than Taric himself. I've started playing Taric for fun based on seeing him in pro play (which is something that's common. People like to try out what streamers/pros do in general.) and he's my favorite support and one of my favorite champions overall. I think Riot is already planning on tweaking inspiration though, and I agree nothing should be done to Taric. That's especially considering that Blitzcrank is going to get a buff and he's one of the main counters to Taric right now based on what I've seen.
