Found a new combination that works actually well:

Aftershock,Font of Life, Conditioning, Revitalize, Manaflow Band, Transcendence

Talisman (I like my mana), Refillable Potion, Tear, Boots of Speed, Hunter's Potion, Stalker's Blade, Catalyst, Merc's, Rod of Ages, Archangle's Staff, Frozen Heart, Spirit Visage, Rabadon's Deathcap

This build gives you the most insane heals you have ever seen in your life. Soraka would be very mad about you and transform you into a big Health Potion. Plus your stun damage isn't bad either. And your AA's will still hurt a bit because of your passive. And if the enemies try to kill you, just press your mana shield and then heal back up again.

Ooh, I like how that sounds. Ardent Censer would fit perfectly there, replacing Frozen Heart. The heals grow monstrous with it, plus its attack buff and bonus MS turn you into a larger attacking threat.

But with Ardent you would lack the armor that Taric needs. I could only see it replacing Rabadon's but Rabadon's is sooo muuuch better at healing.

By midgame you'll have Conditioning, Tabi, and Bastion on you, which by themselves make you fairly durable. Factoring in the bonus healing you receive from Ardent, it offers a similar level of survivability as compared to Frozen Heart. I can see FH being necessary if there are multiple AD threats on the other team and/or you need the attack speed reduction, but Ardent's stats and its buff are utilized incredibly well by healing setups such as the one at hand.

Amazing Guide on an interesting way to play Taric. I must admit at first I wasn't gonna click this one but then I noticed the high rating and I must say, Well deserved it is. Amazing content, structured well for the best presentation and visually appealing aswell. Never knew Jungle Taric could be a thing :P Keep up the amazing work!

So I am a longtime shaco jungle one trick. and was wanting to branch out and adapt my playstyle since. Assassin is about all ive ever played. and I must say I have fallen in love with jungle taric. in season 1 - 2 DFG days i mained AP taric supp/mid. Since the rework i hadnt touched him. It took me a while to get out of the Shaco mindset and switch to a more teamfight oriented playstyle. I've become more used to it now. my favorite thing is the 3 camp clear. Blue Wolves red and meet the jungler at Scuttle or countergank. I have yet to lose a level 3 duel. Its bonkers. I've solo'd a riven top after she killed my top laner early. Then kayne came after being low and solod him forcing his flash to survive. it is so strong. Thanks for this guide its brought new life back to my league play and helped me branch out from my one trick.

That's awesome to hear, it really is crazy how strong Taric is once he gets rolling, plus nobody expects it! Glad you found my guide helpful.

What about Precision/Sorcery for Press the Attack, Manaflow Band and Presence of Mind? Unlimited Mana!!! Oh, add in Transcendence for Frozen Heart stacking :D.

I've tried that and it's definitely fun! I recommend pairing it with and . It gives you the sticking power to proc PTA, durability to survive in fights, and mana synergy for maximum damage. A second Frozen Heart could work, but only against full AD teams.

I didn't put it in the guide since it does have its risks. Those include less health during the first clear and difficulty reaching targets if your enemies have peel. If neither of those is a problem for you though, go for it and smash some fools!

I like Gauntlet over Trinity Force simply because it has a slow. Actually, the combination of Gauntlet, Visage and Frozen Heart is really strong on Taric and gives him everything he wants

Gauntlet works great in most builds, but it works better with . If you go , you should optimize for damage, which is maximized by Trinity Force.

i hate taric is a so ****ing tank and diver with ulti add baron buff its a so fking easy puch lane, he is the hardest support i play against from all, i played him few times when i got him in aram and i saw how strong he is but i still scare to play him in normal ranked, this is a good guide and maybe i give him try i got enough struggling in my ranked games.

Go for it! It does take time to get the hang of him, so experiment in norms and the practice tool until you feel ready. He's very rewarding to play, both as a jungler and a support.

Those stats are stunning! Keep it up and you'll smash your way straight to gold, no doubt.

What is your opinion on fervor Taric?

1

(50) |

Windspeaker's is the better pick since it has massive utility and is dependable throughout the game, especially in teamfights. Fervor's usefulness falls off if you start to play defensively (i.e. peeling, tanking) or get kited.

The best league of legend champions that are clearly overpowered and highly favored in Ranked. This will make it difficult to play the same God Tier champion every game. These are the best lol champion picks in the current patch for ranking up, as well as the most likely to be nerfed in the next patch. This is the highest tier available in the lol tier list, Most of these champions will either be Banned or Picked.The best league of legend champions that are clearly overpowered and highly favored in Ranked.

I legit random picked Taric JG in ranked and just found this fabulous guide to see if I can do something. Turns out that this champion can jungle better then I expected, mainly because at lvl 4 I was full health/mana and manage to solokill a Xin Zhao. Ended up winning the game and getting a S-. 10/10 guide.

Nobody fights Taric and gets away with it! Nice job on the game, and I'm glad my guide was helpful.

just tried it for the first time (i am main support, main taric) it was a good expirience but i have 3 questions,

1. why you dont take scailing armor as seal runes?
2. why you prefere to take expose weakness in the mastries insted of medidation?
3. why starting items with the red potion and not with the refele able one?, after 1 back it would be more useful

thank,and if you can look at my guild i made for taric support it would be nice, as you have more expirience then i have (i started playing only after the rework)

Thanks for the input, I'm glad you enjoyed playing this. :)

1. Scaling armor runes don't give me enough armor in the early levels to survive in the jungle. The monsters deal too much damage to come in unprepared, and by taking flat armor seals, I can stay healthy during my first clear. Also, Taric already has enough scaling armor with which gives him a permanent percent bonus on armor so you don't need any runes to compensate for anything.

2. doesn't do much for me since I already have other ways to help with my mana management. Blue Buff gets me through my first clear, and after I get a my mana issues are solved. I find much more useful since it is a reliable mastery that boosts my teammates' damage and my primary goal with it is to have more kill potential when I gank.

3. I don't start because after the first clear I don't need potions to sustain. Using protects you from monster attacks and I use to heal myself if needed (letting it charge up first, though).

As for your guide, I have a few suggestions to make. First is with the runes: You should change >> . You don't need the armor or magic penetration as support. Your ADC is the one who will be doing most of the damage and you should focus on being a strong tank for them.

Next would be to change >> . It's good to have some bonus health to back up all the armor you already have in your runes and from so that you'll be bulkier and even harder to take down by enemies.

Lastly is the items. In the early game, the ideal build path is:
> targon's brace > >
This path gives you all the stats you need when you need them starting with health, then movement speed, then armor and mana.

One of the core items I recommend is . For such a low price it gives you a lot of great stats and a strong active and should definitely be considered whenever you play support.

All in all you already seem to have a good understanding of playing Taric and I hope these tips can help you even more. Have fun!
