Taliyah is a Faliure

She had way more potential.

Q gives a debuff.... for god knows why.

W is too slow to proc and easily dodgable.

E is pretty alright

R The Jumpoff mechanic is pretty meh.

This is what i would do.

If you are insistant on Creating a Debuff on her Q then atleaste make the initial Q Do more damage early, And make her Worked Ground Q do the amount of damage of atleaste 3 Qs. right now it isnt even a good idea to use worked ground to Q.

W Make it Wider. and or Faster.

Remember when Lucian was a "failure"?

Yeah it took a rework and some buffs to make him playable. especially with vaynes tyranny at the time

Because she's ripping the rocks out of the ground. Not creating rocks out of thin air. The ground only has so many rocks :P But its not too bad if you position the Worked ground well. Plus the movement speed buff is nice.

You can only use so much Worked ground. for s short ranged immobile mage it doesnt help her at all.

And Malphite is a Mountain moving at the speed of light.... Logic doesnt apply here.

Taliah would honestly be so much better if that Q debuff wasnt so Costy. they try to make upfor it with Movement speed and mana reduction... but it isnt enough.

Also every Taliah ive seen has performed poorly. the only time i was doing good was vs a first time ryze. but he got the hang of her abilities and W timing real quick

Her W into E is strong. Also worked ground is easy to work around in. In mid lane you can have almost 12 different worked ground

Worked ground is the problem... its a stupid mechanic that is supposed to help Taliah?

Also going to add that The people i fight arent dumb.... i put a E down and they know a W is coming. and getting even remotely close to them wouldnt be a really good idea.

Pretty sure you're just bad at her :)

Her W is not too hard to hit, and when you do hit the E W combo, you can one shot adc's. Her ult is a game changer and her Q works fine; with the amount of damage she can output with the E W combo, she needs the debuff on Q. Her biggest weakness is laning, but once you get to mid-late game team fights, she's outstanding. I really do recommend that you try playing her more before you call her a complete failure.
