Taliyah·Support Counters

Locking Taliyah down in the lane will make it much easier for you to kill her. Try to focus her first as she is super squishy and easy to kill when she is CC’d.

When trading with Taliyah, stand behind minions so they block her Q damage. But, be on the lookout for her W.

At level 6, her kill pressure increases, but she cannot use her Ultimate R mid-fight. You should have the level 6 advantage if you have a combat Ultimate.

Taliyah will want to delay a team fight for as long as possible while she pokes you down with her Q. Try and force a fight as soon as you spot her.

Avoid splitting up and playing alone. Taliyah’s Ultimate R will allow her to pick off enemies who are alone or isolated without assistance. Do not push up too far forward if you have no one nearby.

Taliyah has good pick potential with her W. If you don’t know where Taliyah is in the mid-game, do not walk around Summoners Rift alone and avoid areas without vision as she may be looking to set up a surprise attack.

Taliyah’s early game poke will be quite strong. Once she hits level 3, she could kill you if you’re low enough.

Her level 6 is good, but it’s not going to be super useful in skirmishes in the bot lane (unless she uses it to start the fight). Keep this in mind when fighting her.

Her first component item will severely increase her damage output in lane. Her Q will hurt more, and you should invest in extra sustain to keep you healthy in this lane.
