How to beat Taric

Common role: Support

The shield of Valoran whose ultimate makes the whole team invulnerable.

What makes Taric dangerous

Taric heals with charged autos, stuns in melee (E — extended through his W-linked ally), shares armor auras, and his ultimate grants team-wide INVULNERABILITY after a delay — dives and fights simply stop dealing damage for 2.5 seconds.

How to play against Taric

• 1His ult has a visible 2.5s delay — disengage and re-enter after it pops.
• 2The stun comes from him OR his linked ally — track the W tether.
• 3Kite him: all his power is short-ranged.
• 4Anti-heal cuts his aura sustain in extended trades.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Melee-bound: ranged poke lanes starve him.
• ✓The ult is fully telegraphed — waiting beats it.
• ✓Low damage; his value is entirely defensive.
• ✓Cooldown-heavy — punish between stun rotations.

Abilities & how to counter them

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

• P
  正气凌人

  每次施放技能会强化塔里克的下2次普攻，以造成额外魔法伤害，使他的基础技能的冷却时间减少，并且可以快速地连续攻击。

  Strong: spell-casts empower two autos that lower his cooldowns. Weak: it chains him to melee — kite between his auto windows.

• Q
  星光之触

  基于已储存的充能来治疗附近的友方英雄。【正气凌人】的强化普攻会为这个技能提供一层充能。

  Strong: charges heal the whole nearby team. Weak: heals drain mana fast — poke wars empty him.

• W
  坚毅壁垒

  被动提升塔里克和带有【坚毅壁垒】效果的友方英雄的护甲。主动施放会为一名友方英雄提供护盾和【坚毅壁垒】效果，只要该英雄呆在塔里克身边，【坚毅壁垒】效果会一直持续。塔里克的技能也会从带有【坚毅壁垒】效果的友方英雄身上施放。

  Strong: links an ally who mirrors his spells — double stuns, double auras. Weak: the link has fixed range — split the pair and the copy dies.

• E
  炫光

  塔里克准备施放一束星光，在短暂的延迟后，会对敌人造成魔法伤害和晕眩效果。

  Strong: a delayed line stun cast from him AND the linked ally. Weak: slow wind-up — watch both sources and sidestep.

• R
  宇宙之辉

  在短暂的延迟后，放射一道宇宙能量到附近的友方英雄身上，让他们免疫伤害一段时间。

  Strong: team-wide INVULNERABILITY after the delay. Weak: 2.5s of visible countdown — stall the fight, then burst after it pops.

Itemization

Count 2.5 seconds and hold burst through the invulnerability. Range and kiting starve his whole kit.
