Playing against Taliyah

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Dodge the W (knockback): it's the condition for the E mines combo to work.

2

Destroy her R wall by walking into it: the wall has HP and can be broken.

3

Taliyah is squishy and vulnerable to direct engages — assassins counter her well.

4

Her Q deals less damage on worked ground: force fights on terrain she's already used.
