If he has the blue buff, then Taric can clear OK. I just don't see him ganking well during the laning phase. He has nothing that speeds him up or lets him jump to a target. His only cc is his stun which only lasts 1 second at rank 1, and once that wears off, he doesn't have anything that slows the target down, so enemies can pretty much walk away from him. And, he doesn't have the burst damage to really knock someone around. Basically all Taric can do during a gank is hope his teammate can bring the cc and burst damage. The only thing that he can potentially do better than other junglers is dive a turret with his ultimate. That's about it.

Oh, and I actually played the new Taric in an URF game on the PBE. It was pretty awesome. Stuns, shields, and heals up the wazoo.

Probably not, but he's op.


I don't think Taric will do anything about this, but I just played my second game with a Zyra + Yasuo bot and both times, it was OP. By combining an anti-adc in Yasuo with the harass of Zyra, the pre-6 laning went well. Then, once level 6 happens, look out! Previously, I think everyone played an adc bot, because there was always a need for an adc's high sustained damage and bot was the only place to put them. However, I think it's possible now that adc's can go into other lanes that maybe some kind of kill lanes can start happening bot as long as you have an adc or two coming from other lanes.
