Well hello mobfire peoples my name is ADH5252 and this is my first guide.Thank you for useing my guide for Ap Taric in mid. Please rate and comment telling me how to improve. :)

Pros

Strong Burst
Quite Naturaly tankish against AD champs
Juicey Heals
Amazing with a good jungler
Hard to kill



Cons

Not extreemly tanky
Hard to convince strangers to let you mid
People find him quite stuning

Philosopher's Stone

Geting this is very good because it will help you sustain and get free gold. Also DO NOT upgrade this untill end game or when you have a full build.

Merc Treds

A bit of magic resist as that is what you will most likey face in mid. And a bit of Tenacity to help during well played ganks *if they have cc

Rod of Ages

Self explanitory basicly it gives a nice amount of Ap+Hp+Mana and gives more over a course of 10 minutes.

DeathCap

Simply increeses your Ap by alot

Will of The Ancients

A amazing item towards late game because it will not only give you more Ap and Spell vamp but will give all of your near teamates, I call it being a team player :)

Crystal Scepter

Gives Ap and more Hp and by this point in the game the enemy will notice how much damage you can deliver in such a small amount of time so the so is nice

The Crown Thing

Gives more regen on your mana and Hp and you can activate it to make nearby teamates go faster so they catch up to rude fast champs like Teemo. (this item is not need it I just like it because it will give you alot of assist if used right

Only things you need to know about farming

-Do no just aim for last hits as hiting things reduces the cool down on your heal
-Try and just smack seige units with you're auto attack and last hit the smaller minions
-If you can Dazzle the other champ to try and zone him from the xp

Early Game

-Poke With Dazzle
-Heal when about 75%
-Smack as many minions as you can
-If a AP champ is mid do not forget if he gets close smack them with your W
-If the other champ starts to act a bit diffrently be careful as the jungle may be around make sure you try to have dazzle ready just to counter the gank and run to you're turrent
-Also use dazzle to let you're jungler or someone who is doing well get a nice non moving target

Mid Game

-Basicly all the above
-Just throw in you're ult when you use your W and try to get a couple smacks in as you're Ad will be raised and they're armor will be lower(also you will regen mana as you hit due to the passive)

Late Game

-At this point in the game you should be a strong force that can help your team in teamfights while destroying a huge cunk out of the enemy team's Hp

General Tips

-As Taric you can dazzle champs with cc such as alister to prevent them from disrupting an allie's skill/ult
-Late game a E+W+R=1k+ damage and can be done in less then 2 seconds,this allows you're team to get and easy kill or you can pull it off on a ~1/2 way dead enemy champ to get a easy kill

--Dazzle is you're poke-
-Use you're auto attack to get more mana in lane-
-E+W+R=Pain-
-Still Drop Heals and support you're team-
-Make sure to say in the rare case you lose "GG" or "Gg" or "gg"-
-Dazzle makes ganks easy-
