Playing as Taric

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Pantheon

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his Shield Vault

    Take a trade when Shield Vault (W) is on cooldown: it's his only spell to leap onto you and stun you, on a 13 to 9 second cooldown.

  2. Go around his Aegis

    During Aegis Assault (E), go around him or wait it out: he ignores damage from the front, except from towers.

  3. Back before you get too low

    Back before your health gets too low against him: below a health threshold, Comet Spear (Q) deals much more damage.

  4. Ping when he leaves lane

    Ping your team as soon as he disappears from lane: Grand Starfall (R) lands him from long range, after a short delay that gives you time to get away.

  5. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Pantheon looks to get ahead early through his trades and roams.
