The disappointment of Taliyah

Taliyah is in a really bad spot right now, she can't waveclear half as fast as she's supposed to which gives her so little time to roam, i find it so ironic that a champion who was literally made to roam, a champion who's ultimate is used for roaming, gets nerfed to the ground because she was doing her job and roaming. i find it so much easier to roam with Ekko and Ryze now

this is extremely disappointing for many reasons, one of them being that Riot wants to make Talon a roaming assasin but a champion who was dedicated to roaming seems to be the worst at doing it. she no longer excels in lane, she doesn't do well for ganking lanes, so what is she good at? if i want to roam i'll play Ryze now, if i want to destroy my lane i'll play Syndra, but ever since she was nerfed, we don't have a healthy balance of both in one champion

i used to love Taliyah but there's no point in playing her when there are so many other champs that do her job better than her

Like I said, reverting her to 6.14 would fix literally all of her problems.

That's what happens when Riot doesn't want a champ to fulfill any role effectively. Not zone control. Not damage. Not waveclear. Not roaming.

As someone who loves playing taliyah shes almost unplayable right now its so sad... although reverting her isnt the answer. I would say give her Q 20% bonus dmg to minion or a scaling bonus dmg to minions so she cant kill backline at level 1

Well, as a diamond 5 taliyah main id say that the one and only good thing she is at now, is outputting a shit ton of constant damage and perma slow with her q mid to late game. She is basically an Ashe that can auto attack while moving. While her e is near useless now it should be kept in mind that her w CC is a game changing ability and that her r is one of the most useful ults late game to mid game for catching people out/ splitting up the enemy team.
