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
浮石冲塔莉垭在墙体附近时会获得移动速度。
Strong: rides rock walls with big move speed for roams. Weak: mounts only near walls out of combat — irrelevant mid-fight.
Q
石穿塔莉垭朝目标方向扔出一串岩石,同时自身可自由移动。这个技能会在她脚下生成【掘石场】。如果塔莉垭在【掘石场】上使用【Q石穿】,她将消耗掉【掘石场】来投掷一颗更强大的岩石来减速敌人。
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
岩突塔莉垭在目标区域引发岩突,并将区域内的敌人们扔向她所选的方向。
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
撒石阵塔莉垭创造一个可减速的雷区。如果敌人在使用冲刺技能途径雷区或是被强制位移效果途经雷区,石雷就会爆炸并晕眩该敌人。
Strong: a rock minefield that detonates on dashes through it. Weak: punish champions without dashes barely notice it — walk, don't dash.
R
墙幔塔莉垭创造出一个非常长的石墙,然后在石墙上冲浪。
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.
