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
  바위타기

  벽 근처에서 이동 속도가 상승합니다.

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

• Q
  파편 난사

  탈리야가 지정한 방향으로 바위 조각을 던집니다. 이 때 탈리야는 자유롭게 이동할 수 있으며 탈리야 아래의 땅이 다져집니다. 다져진 땅 위에서 파편 난사를 사용하면 다져진 땅이 사라지면서 적을 둔화하는 큰 바위를 던집니다.

  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
  지각변동

  탈리야가 특정 지점을 솟구치게 만들어 탈리야가 선택한 방향으로 적을 띄워 올립니다.

  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
  대지의 파동

  적을 둔화시키는 바위밭을 만듭니다. 적이 그 위로 돌진하거나 밀려나면 바위가 폭발해 대상을 기절시킵니다.

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

• R
  바위술사의 벽

  아주 긴 벽을 세웁니다. 탈리야는 이 벽을 타고 이동할 수 있습니다.

  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.
