Not really a question but genuinely happy you guys made an effort to make a non-sexualized girl champ who's also a person of color! That makes 4 strong Lucian Ekko Karma ik a lot of people will give me flak for being an SJW for bein excited about this but it's important! Especially as the number one played game in the world.

What was the hardest part of her kit to code/design and why?

if she starts getting traction as support can you promise you won't nerf it just because it's not in the midlane flashzone anymore?

How do you pronounce her name?

Since she is the latest champion to Shurima, what will be her purpose in this upcoming battle in Shurima? Is it just to find her family and protect them or to stop Xerath from causing more destruction and turmoil to Shurima, her homeland?

What do you think would happen in a confrontation between her and Rek'Sai, if she were to pass through that area of Shurima?

So... will we be seeing the awkward moment when Taliyah realizes that Azir isn't the tyrant she thought him to be? Something like "Uh... whoops. Sorry about destroying your palace and all... heh..."

On to the real questions.

  1. When you thought of a Shuriman champion, what made you think "stone mage?" Unless you guys just want to cover all the elements, then that's understandable.

  2. How has Taliyah lasted so long in a world full of void creature invasions, sea krakens, and basically hellish weather? Do her powers give her innate durability, or is she just lucky?

  3. How would Taliyah react to seeing Malphite? Would she be able to tear off chunks of him and the like, or is Malphite covered in a rock-like material that doesn't inhibit the properties Taliyah requires to use her powers?

  4. What's with Shurima and walls these days? Seems like some hidden Trump card, if you ask me.

  5. Less of a question about Taliyah herself, more about Shurima's Xer'Sai infestation. Has Azir started cleaning that up, or is he focused on other things? And would Xerath take care of them around his own empire?

  6. Last question, I swear. Taliyah's scarf is awesome with those stones on the ends. Is that a special material, or did she just put those on the scarf for the coolness factor? I'm really digging that scarf.

Why did you give Taliyah the rock surfing passive. As a midlaner she isn't really walking to lane with continuous wall beside her.

retarded kidd695/11/2016, 9:15:51 PM2 votes

could have given her a passive where she collects rocks when she moves around and does additional damage based on how many rocks she has collected and plz make her ult do damage.[zombie-brand-mindblown] [zombie-brand-clap] [zombie-brand-facepalm]

Does she have a crush on Ekko?

Oh my god. In the Nasus story Xerath has followers calling him the new emperor of shruima. What if Tahlia mistaked Azir for Xerath?

TheStalwart5/12/2016, 12:24:34 PM2 votes

What is her opinion on other places in the world like the Shadow Isles and Bildgewater. Also does she think there should be a void event soon?

Toxxic Glitter5/12/2016, 2:55:46 AM1 votes
  1. does her passive activate on generated terrain (anivia, j4, Trundle)? 2)Do her innate and q Stack? how do they interact with other movement boosts? 3)does here ult's displace stop ally recall or other channels and does it activate e? 4)Do other displacements (blitz, thresh, yi, etc.) activate e?
  2. if non-champs are displaced by w will they activate e?
  3. does all damage (minions) or only champ and turret damage stop ult? 7)can w displace allies or herself?
  4. how does the q different mana cost work with eternity and tear of the goddess? 9)is the ult a projectile for wind wall?
  5. for innates purpose: what is out of range of wall?
  6. if done correctly could the ult trap people in an area like the dragon or baron pit or even just a corner of terrain?
  7. does the e's 4 per champ limit mean an enemy can only destroy 4 rocks or can only take damage from 4 then keep destroying them damage free? 13)her w lasts up for a bit, what happens if someone touches it after it has been launched?
  8. are the e's standard for dashes the same for poppy? does the protobelt count, does aurelion sol's comet count?
  9. is taliyah definitely coming out in 6.10?
  10. any upcoming skins for taliyah to look forward to(coughtophcough) like maybe a green chroma or a melon taliyah you can tell us about?
  11. does she ever use her powers to mess with malphite? could she use them to mess with skarner?
  12. unrelated, but would you rather face a 100 teemo sized malphites or 1 malphite sized teemo? I'm really excited for her, i love mid mages and her abilities look so cool.

I doubt i will get a reply, but at least I can make the attempt to be heard with good questions. If you do reply, thank you very much for your time, keep up the good work.

  • Is the ultimate ability going to deal some sort of damage? When you say minutes on worked ground, how long is it exactly? We're going to see this champion played in more roles than mid right? Are you guys going to display the amount of Mov.Spd she gains when wall riding?
  • Is she going to be like Illaoi where after 1 week she's just non-existant because she doesn't offer anything we don't have, or are you going to continually work on her?
  • What Was your intention of "smoothness/Clunkiness" when creating this champion, EXAMPLE: Ekko(very smooth W E Q R.) Or Zed: Everything is a ONLY IF my opponent does this.
  • Finally, are you guys going to do something about those eyebrows? can't tell if that's shadow or Riot just trying to portray more ethnicity into the game.

THANK YOU [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
