Corki and Taric:a mid season crisis

Asked by Nientonsoh on July 4, 2013

I've noticed ever since the beginning of the new meta corki and taric have fallen out of favor, they used to be one of the top picks in ranked and competitive play, now i rarely see taric or corki.Can anyone answer my question of why they are no longer seen bot?

has always been weak due to severe mana issues. He can only work well with (for doubled armor shred) or , who are both out of favor due to stronger CC support options.

fell out when his 1.5s stun was reduced to a 1.2s stun (at Lv1). Also, does his job better. So does .

Right it's not that is bad it's just there are other champions atm that do his job better :(

Makes me sad because was my main support,

"Always been weak"? Kitten you weren't around in S2 were you? ;]
Corki's actual issues stem from his ability casting not meshing well with his role as an AD carry and he cannot pull off the nifty build that can.

Back in S2 they were both Gods, along with . Now only remains that status.

I think Corki's W ability will cost 50 mana in the next patch ;)
Maybe that will fix his Mana problems.

and most of the other supports, too, sadly.

Corki because of mana issues and because the items that work well on him have been nerfed.

Taric because his W has been nerfed into the ground. You need about 300 armor to get the same aura as you could get at level 9 before.

Isn't funny how they nerf for "being broken" as is lifted onto 's old spot of "picked every game."

Oh and his passive nerfs. He used to work great with Triforce - IE build. Triforce has been nerfed and his passive cannot crit anymore

You should give AP a try at mid then.

This.

You can check out my guide on the supreme moustache wizard if you're puzzled for building paths.

Alright, about Taric, I think that the continuous nerfs (especially to his w) really lowered his power. His damage potential and armor aura is much weaker. He is still viable but doesn't bring what a Thresh or a Sona brings to a team. Now, I don't know what the deal with Corki is, he is still very stong in my opinion.
