How to beat Taliyah

Common role: Jungle / Mid

A stoneweaver whose worked ground and wall reroute entire fights.

What makes Taliyah dangerous

Taliyah machine-guns stone volleys (single boulders on worked ground), pushes enemies off a seismic knock-up field, throws them backward over her rock wave, and her ultimate raises a MASSIVE wall across the map — cutting reinforcements, escapes and objectives in half.

How to play against Taliyah

• 1Fight her on worked ground (the rocky trail) — her Q loses most damage there.
• 2The W-E combo needs a beat of aim — dash through or juke the flip.
• 3Her wall can trap HER team too — punish greedy walls.
• 4Gank her mid pre-6: thin waveclear windows leave her exposed.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Q damage collapses on worked ground.
• ✓Squishy with a movement-based escape only.
• ✓The wall is irreversible — misplaced, it loses fights.
• ✓Falls off when fights leave her prepared zones.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Taliyah's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Navetta rocciosa

  Taliyah ottiene velocità di movimento vicino ai muri.

  Strong: rides rock walls with big move speed for roams. Weak: mounts only near walls out of combat — irrelevant mid-fight.

• Q
  Raffica filettata

  Taliyah lancia una raffica di sassi in una direzione bersaglio mentre si muove liberamente. Questo crea terreno alterato sotto di lei. Se Taliyah usa Raffica filettata su un terreno alterato, lo consuma per lanciare un masso più forte che rallenta i nemici.

  Strong: a five-stone volley that shreds on full connect. Weak: leaves WORKED GROUND where Q fires one weak stone — fight her on her own trail.

• W
  Spinta sismica

  Taliyah fa esplodere una parte di terreno e lancia i nemici al suo interno in una direzione a sua scelta.

  Strong: a knock-up field she aims to throw you ANY direction. Weak: a beat of aim delay — dash through during the arrow drag.

• E
  Disfare il terreno

  Taliyah crea un campo minato che rallenta i nemici. Se i nemici ci passano scattando o vengono respinti, le mine esplodono e li stordiscono.

  Strong: a rock minefield that detonates on dashes through it. Weak: punish champions without dashes barely notice it — walk, don't dash.

• R
  Muro della tessitrice

  Taliyah crea un muro molto lungo e poi lo percorre.

  Strong: a MAP-SCALE wall that cuts reinforcements and escapes. Weak: cast greedily it strands her own team — punish bad walls instantly.

Itemization

Drag fights onto her own worked ground, respect the wall timing windows, and dive her squishy frame.
