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 Seraphine

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her Beat Drop

    Dodge Beat Drop (E), especially if you're already slowed: it roots a slowed target and stuns an immobilized one.

  2. Back off before her third spell

    Count her basic spells and back off before the third: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, whether it damages, slows or shields.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    Spread out from your allies against Encore (R): each champion hit extends its range, and a charmed ally near you lets it reach you.

  4. Target her: she has no dash

    If you can engage, target Seraphine: her kit has no dash to escape.
