Playing as Taric
Tips to maximize your impact
- Two autos after each spell
Weave in two autos after each spell: Bravado (passive) empowers them with bonus magic damage, and each one lowers your cooldowns.
- A second angle with your bound ally
Bind to an ally with Bastion (W): while they stay close, all your spells also cast from them, Dazzle (E) included, which gives you a second stun angle.
- Heal with all your charges
Cast Starlight's Touch (Q) when its charges are full: it consumes them all to heal nearby allies, for the same 60 mana cost.
- Cast your ult before the burst
Cast Cosmic Radiance (R) as soon as the teamfight is coming, not at the last moment: the invulnerability only kicks in after a delay, and only for nearby allies.
Playing against Camille
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after her Hookshot
Take a trade after her Hookshot (E): it's her only dash before level 6, on a 16 to 12 second cooldown.
- Get out of her leap's path
When she latches onto a wall with Hookshot (E), step out of her line: she has 1 second to leap, and the landing stuns nearby champions.
- Back off between her two Qs
Back off after the first Precision Protocol (Q) attack: if the second comes after a short delay, it hits harder and part of it ignores your armor.
- Fight inside her R, don't flee
Save your spells to fight inside The Hextech Ultimatum (R) rather than to flee: the trapped target can't leave the zone while it lasts.
