Jungle taric is the only person I would seriously consider nashor's tooth on.

actually, reminds me that I used to run nashor's tooth when I used to troll top-lane taric some time ago.
Look at this guy, constantly diluting himself! (╮°-°)╮┳━┳ ( ╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻

Support Maokai is random?

Eh, maybe not random, but so obscure imo. The guy really wanted to play Maokai, and jungle was open, but he went Heal/Clarity Mao instead. It worked, though, poke and engage too stronk.

what elo are you?

Capped out at ~1370, dropped down to 1000 from a lovely losing streak. Bringing it back now that I go AD carry as Corki or Ez and dominate lane

I've done some jungling taric after several botched champ selects and it's pretty terrible. His clear and gank potential are below average and his invading potential is non-existent, but his biggest problem is that he scales terribly and is just dead weight in the late game. You can't win team fights with two supports.

The jungler has to fill in an assasin or tanky bruiser role which Taric simply cannot do.


Then what is maokai and naut defined as in your book? They're more of a tanky support than anything with their tons of cc and utility. They don't go diving the enemy carry like a bruiser would. They don't have the damage lategame that a bruiser would. They're main jobs are to protect your carry.


Actually maokai and naut are really good at sticking onto a carry and cc'ing them out of the fight or peeling and protecting the carry. Taric has no mobility and only defensive abilities so he has to stick on the carry. Maokai and naut also have insane ganks and are much tankier than taric.

Taric can't operate in the jungle because he sucks in all of the key aspects as well as crippling your late game team since he cannot add anything more than your 2nd support.

Taric is far tankier than Maokai or Nautilus. 60 armour steroid and 308+ self heal on a very short CD if he is auto attacking. Taric also has very good base stats and decent stat growth.

There are lots of team comps that can get away with double support and work fine. Alistar hardly does any damage past mid game and is an extremely strong jungler. If you have high DPS AP and AD carrys you will do enough regardless of your jungle.

Taric sucks at farming. Has pretty poor CC for a tank also.

Yes...I watched it.
It went exactly as you'd expect.

As for that 101st champ...that pic looks like a CGI still from a video......

Lol scumbag Morello telling us she has something 'never before seen in MOBA' and yet fucking Jayce hasn't even been released.

I feel bad for whichever Rioter designed Jayce because people just really aren't excited for him at all, and now with the announcement of Zyra people will care even less.

There's a stark difference between "can't operate in the jungle" and "isn't the best jungling option by a notable margin". Taric doesn't suck as much as you claim, but he also doesn't excel. He's average. That makes him inferior to a number of above-average or excellent junglers, but that's not the same as him being bad.

Not everything in LoL is polarized to the extremes of "OMG OP" and "GAWD TROLL".

Man reading the patch notes on Taric made me so sad. I didn't play him back in 2009 but I do remember when his toggle ult made him unkillable and he had 1.0+ ratios on all of his abilities. Some of his abilities sound super op way back then though... radiance healed his entire team, shatter lvl 1 base damage was 100, and dazzle was a 2.5 second stun. Jeez.

Seeing my friends play 10 games a day every day and getting better makes me sad x.x I wish I had half as much time to grind solo que games as they do.

How do people balance 8 hours jobs, working out, playing games, and still having some sort of a social life? Shits depressing yo
