I have 2 questions for you regarding Taric
1) I have recently tried this Champ on free pick and after 2 games I immediately bought him for my support pool. I see his very good potential in disengage, but to be honest I bought him only for certain situations that I feel like I need Taric. The issue I face, I am not quite sure in what exactly enemy comp he would fit WELL against.
What exactly the enemy comp/draft should be ? Like he would be good if enemy has 3 or more tanks ? Or enemy has 3 or more carries with engager ? I can't understand agsinst what enemy comp I should use him.
2) Don't you find Stoneborn Pact good for Taric ? As far as I get everytime you stun enemy you and your ally get the effect of it, and if you get the effect your adc get Ardent Censer proc ?
1) The team comps that Taric has trouble with are ones with lots of mobility and poke. For instance, if you see a team of Lulu, Caitlyn, Xerath, Nidalee, and Jayce, you should pick someone else because you'll get kited the whole game.
Besides that, Taric works well pretty much anywhere. He excels versus burst comps because of his ultimate, and he also fits versus tanky teams because
2) Windspeaker's is better overall. Stoneborn's healing isn't very reliable since you have to wait on your stun's cooldown for it to be effective. Windspeaker's, however, is always active, so you'll get a lot more usage out of it.
Regarding Ardent Censer, you can proc it almost anytime with Q or W, so you don't need to rely on Stoneborn to apply it for you.
I got another question on match up:
"For Leona, hard engages are a way of life, but unfortunately for her, you're equipped to counter them. If she dashes towards your ADC with Zenith Blade, pair up with Bastion then walk up to the enemy ADC, firing Dazzles on the both of them."
This is kinda stupid question, that I don't think can be answered without specifics.
Bus If I can't Dazzle on both of them should I dazzle adc or Leona ? I think I won't dazzle Ez, Cait, Luc or any mobility champs, as they simply dodge it and go into your adc. But if it is not mobility champs (or they wasted their mobility cast) do I go into adc ? From my experience Leona deals a good damage, but according to retaliation trade I should always go into adc.
On the other hand, if the ADC doesn't use their mobility, you should get in their face and start hitting them with Q/W-empowered autos. That way, if they dash in attempt get away from you, you get your opening to stun. If they don't use anything, you'll still have gotten some decent damage off.
I know for you it may seem kinda basic questions on trades, but in my elo (silver) ranked and normal are very different, so facing Leona in normals won't give me a good experience vs ranked Leona.
In short trades, there's no need to try getting in the ADC's face. Just cast Q and W when Leona engages, hit back a few times, then let her back off. Still save your stun for if the enemy ADC is vulnerable, though; you won't accomplish much by hitting Leona with it.
