Remove Taric's ability to switch bonded allies.

Kalista can't do it, and half her kit is gone without a bonded ally present. No reason Taric should be able to switch when he can also self-cast his abilities. (Or be fair in the other direction and allow her to switch by buying the item 3599 again)

It's a mechanic that shouldn't be strictly limited to Taric.

Kill champion diversity because you don't think it's fair? BUT OF COURSE! While we are at it, let's buff tank Ekko and nerf AP Ekko more, while making all jungle creeps into dragons!

Ah, you again. It seems you're one of those people who only ever comments with things unrelated to the discussion or harassing the OP.

Unrelated to the discussion? Are you kidding me? Taric's W diversity comes from the fact he can choose multiple people to shield and choose who the best ally would be to multiply his abilities. Kalista's diversity comes from the fact she gains more power from sticking close to her sworn partner.

Kalista has a ton of power tied up in her bound ally, but even without the bond, she's a terror on her own just from E and Q. Taric, on the other hand, has a 75% support driven kit with very little impact without a bond.

The only thing his bond does is increase his abilties' radius. They do all the same things. Wait until he's put on live before making assumptions about his power while alone.

It is an assumption, yes, but I know Kalista relies on her autos and the stacking of E to deal the majority of her damage, where Taric only has his passive and Dazzle to deal damage and hold people down. Kalista is the safer of the two, able to ruin people at range, even without her Soulbound, and Taric has to risk himself to manage to be impactful without his Bastioned. So there's the trade off, Kalista has a more aggressive, safer way to do her job without her bound, while Taric loses some steam because he has to put himself at higher risk.

I did some PBE testing on him, and what he says is true.

You know a shit-post when someone tries to compare two champions of completely different role attributes.
