Taric, the Forgotten Support

So Taric has been basically left behind as far as supports go. Despite his high potential, his lack of drastic cc hurts him. Most supports have 2 or 3 forms of cc, but Taric has only his single target stun, which only lasts for 1.2 secs rank 1, and 1.6 at rank 5.

His kit is alright at survival, I'll grant that, but it just...lacks.

Then I got an idea.

What if we gave his ultimate a slight knockup? I was thinking a half second or so. Just enough to get an attack off. Make it in the radius, and he would have decent teamfight presence. Makes him a threat on the front line, without making him deal too much damage.

So who agrees? And if you don't, why? Do you have other ideas? Feel free to comment.

Taric is getting a rework

He should get shorter/cacelable animations. Whatever he does, he has to stop to do it. And he has too long cooldowns to do basic stuff. He should get aura bonuses for each ability he has on cooldown.

I love Taric he is weaker then like all the supps . he is just harder to use. To me his passive armor damage should be like 40% not 20. And perhaps his e should be longer . but I agree on the ultimate And his q cost way way to much as far as. Heals

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lemme tell you a secret: He counters good carrys Kalista: Jump all you want, my stun is point click, so your passive, not that helpfull for you. W lowers Rend Draven : You aint getting the axe bro. W lowers Draven's Q Caitlyn : Poke all you want, I can heal

I dunno, I'd say he's pretty decent. A targeted stun, a heal, and an armor shred. All good tools for trades. His ultimate is decent in teamfights, giving your team a little edge. He's got decent synergy with Sivir as well, especially in teamfights.

I just played him in rank not to long ago. He isn't bad, but not really good either. Taric atm is only good if the enemy team has four or more ad champs. Does horribly against multiple engages and if your team doesn't have more cc.... More like Taric "Who do you want dead?" item 3070 Vayne item 3070 * points * Kalista summoner 11 .
