Taric and or Crystal needs to be nerfed or removed.

Hi Im Kindred ··1 votes·1,779 views

I'm not entirely sure what synergy or unit here is over-tuned, but I was 100% health winning to level 8, had great items .. And as soon as these other two picked up (ashe taric) they started crushing everyone including me.

Im leaning towards crystal taric being the problem because I snuck cloud in and that didn't change the fight in my favor. And these people aren't the brightest, as evident by the missed synergies and not understanding the comp.

missed synergies? Those are ranger x crystal x poison x warden comps.

counter them with DoT magic damage like inferno or summoners.

the guy who won had a varus 2 sitting on his bench all game. And other had ..INTeresting item choices to say the least.

I did have inferno, I did have DOT, I had burst, and I had quite a bit of defense between my items and cloud lux.. That's my fcking point. Not to mention I had an extra unit, and despite dying with 2 singed on the board... I did have a malphite 2 the round before which got stomped by the guy who ended in second, so I cut him to roll for a taric after I realized I had 0 chance of winning without him (because he's clearly a broken unit).

You tried to prove me wrong, but all you did was prove that taric has no functioning counters because crystal and or taric are over-tuned. He would probably be fine if he wasn't also a warden, but Idk because I dont have the ability to test.. like this "AAA" company does.

I like your picture posted above that contradict your statement. Other comps are 1-2th positions and Crystal is 3,4,6,7 positions :)

Of course "Hi Im Kindred" cut the rest of 5 comps to not let us see that Crystal wasn't first position. Good point.

We were top 3 I was pointing out that the difference maker was clearly taric between the 3 of our Nearly Identical Comps. He is too strong. Poison rangers in general is too strong, but taric ashe makes it broken. I'm not trying to hide anything, just highlight that he is most likely the REASON why POISON RANGERS.. Has been in a dominant position in the last bunch of patches. Their previous nerfs on Taric didn't work because taric is inherently broken with the 3 defense synergy.

Um... I'm not seeing this inferno game you speak of in your match history. I see a 6 shadow 5 inferno game that you got 2nd place from 2 days ago, but I doubt that's the game you are talking about.

Varus, Kindred Amumu = inferno synergy. I also had singed with a item 3165 that's a dot with a dot, so just stop.

I play on this account to warm up, and when I'm not feeling it. I have way more understanding of the game than you.. Im higher than you on this account and I don't even grind it.

If you are so good you should know that inferno3s are shit.

Burst comp that relies on resets trying to take down an anti burst immunity comp then comes complain about it.

Oh so good you are.

Ty for posting this to further illustrate that the problem is mostly taric, and partially crystal. Kinda sick of people who don't know what they are talking about posting on this. .

I made the post to call out riot for not doing proper testing and get this COMP out of here that's been dominating throughout the entire set.

I play the comp, I don't have anything against any comp in general, but I do have a problem with UNITS BEING BROKEN.

"Proƒyt" I noticed from your stats that you got maximum 3-th position as Crystal comp. Also I checked "Hi Im Kindred" stats and last month only one time he won first position as crystal + rangers, but he tried much more than you.

Also I checked some challengers, they won 1-th position rather due to Twich + poison than Ashe.

I consider poison and Lunar much powerful than crystal.

Of course if you try 6 mages and spatula won't come then you have great chance to finish 6-8th. But if you try rangers + crystal you have more chances for higher position. But this doesn't mean they are OP.

Now I see finally, after so many buffs, Olaf is able to win the game with specific items and this are good news. Also with Lunar you can build many good combinations that can beat crystal + rangers.

Really crit beats immunity? Pls Illuminate how a damage buff beats complete damage mitigation? Your entire frontline is dead before you even kill the mundo.

If You want to base everything around challenger.. Then here ya go buddy.. Totally troll second and first place win in challenger for ya.. Should show you that Taric can literally be thrown in to any comp, and it will help you.

How old are you? Investigating a smurf account thinking it's going to help you prove your non point? Why don't you go spend some time learning the game instead of talking on the forums about balance Sherlock.

Crystal is OK and necessary to stop Yasuo and assassins insta-killings and slow down a huge damage such shadow, Olaf etc. Without Crystal the game would sucks.

Taric needs to be 2 stars to have a strong crystal, this means level 9 or luck. It's OK for a 5 tier unit. Ashe has the lowest damage of all the 4 tier carries. She needs specific items to be good.
