HOW TO PLAY TALIYAH - FULL INDEPTH GUIDE - RANK 1 CHALLENGER MID 

Hey everyone, I tried to improve the pacing of this guide quite a bit by cutting out a lot of the repetition in the items, runes and summs sections. Hopefully that makes the guide much easier to watch!

I'm a Taliyah OTP and find the E + R combo you demonstrated impractical, but I often naturally end up doing R + E. The trick is: if you see your wall is going to knock someone up while riding it, quickly jump off before it does and lay down your E immediately and it can be fast enough to have it proc. For reference I've just uploaded a video of an example of this titled "Taliyah R + E Combo."

My man I just gotta say that I love every single one of your videos and I've watched multiple times some of these in depth guides (the azir and syndra one especially) You are the one who got me into syndra and so far I'm loving the champion soooo much

Thank you so much for this, really wanted to learn her and this was the push I needed to lose 25 games straight before feeling competent :)

Thank you so much for making this guide, its hard learning a champion that was just reworked only 2 months ago

just found your channel, been looking for an informative mid laner for ages you’re perfect !

Thank you so much for making this! It's nice to get your opinion about my main. Great vid as always.

i love your guides, common shok W

Hey man love your videos they actually help, also can you please make a sylas guide?

It's the first time i watch one of your videos, really liked it ! keep up the good work

would be too sick to get a super quick taliyah update in the new split :)))

I've been falling off on Taliyah 😅 I don't know if I'm getting washed up or not but this video helped me understand her character especially with this mid scope update a lot more so thank you

Oufff been looking forward to this one

What do you think about rylais with Taliyah? Ucal in high elo korea builds it almost every game.

Hey, Shok! Thank you for another useful guide, really appreciate it. I have the question that doesnt match the video theme, but i am really interested: what are u studying now? Design or smth near? Ur thumbnails are really good, u make those urself?

omg thanks friend, I was delighted with this video of yours, the first time I see it and it earned my subscription to keep learning about the champion "Taliyah", leaving that aside I had a doubt about something and it was What are the differences between having the minimap on the left/right side PD: I have read and heard that you should have the minimap on the left or right side depending on your dominant eye The dominant eye is the one with which the brain fixes the view or so I understand

19:12 if you Flash Auto on Sylas, he survives with 3 hp because your autos deals 46 to him and with the auto traveling time, he would have regen to 49 HP. So good decision, definetly worth it to keep your Flash.

good guide dude! I just can't get used to the change in playstyle, I was too used to the big damage on the old one

Great guide it helped me a lot keep the content ❤❤

Hey Shok, I really really appreciate these guides and I think they are some of the best out there when Learning a champion. Is there any way you could do a Zed one? I’m trying to learn the champ and I think one of your guides would really help me and a lot of new Zeds and Zed mains alike!

These vids are very helpful as a low elo player, I can play champs like azir and viktor decently well now, just want to know if vlad would ever be a champ to get a guide as I see him solo carrying most of the games I play as he seems like a good champ in low elo

thanks! really useful, I'll be sure to check out your other videos. new sub

bayzed

No need a guide to my main, but Galio guide would ba a banger

Love the guides!

hey shok you forgot to mention that taliyah can cast w while jumping off her wall

Got plat 1 with taliyah with this guide :)

Great video! Do you really think taliyah is playable in SoloQ after the nerfs ? I found it very difficult to play her in upper gold :/ But maybe I am just bad

Oh yes! This is what i have been waiting for. Thanks for the amazing content man.

18:12 if you took W you could do some nice additional damage + more autos + maybe even ignite and a kill 19:13 - probably not a kill, ur AA do 46 and he regenerated quickly to 49, i am not sure if it would be on time And nice video of course!

Why surcerores shoes are better when we are the only ap on the team ? I thought magic penetration was usefell when they were a lot of magic resist

love it more twitch please

Excellent

So how does taliyah fair against heimerdinger? I hate that champion and dont have a counter for him, thought taliyah might be ok bc of her Q and E

I have a question, who should you look to ban with Taliyah? what champs make her life the most difficult in lane?

Finally YES !!!

nice guide :D

Woo-hoo, Shok is finally covering my gal Taliyah! My only question relates to Taliyah's old identity compared to her modern one. Since Taliyah is no longer a Level 1-7 Champion, is it worth going for roams anymore, or should I wait for the LC/Sorcerer's Powerspike? I've found that Taliyah is actually better in lane than before, and the changes to her passive make her feel gated to Skuttle fights. - *A Tantalized Taliyah Main*

fell asleep to this one too

such a fun champ

18:58 You mention revolver? That item was removed from league, is this guide outdated or was that just a slip?

Hey @Shok , great video! What's your thoughts on Rylai's Crystal Scepter? Especially when verse melee mid or multiple enemy melees. Fitting in as either your second item before Seraph's or third if ahead and the slow isn't needed as much. Also, with the nerf to First Strike in patch 12.15 this week, has your opinion of First Strike changed?

when using minion dematerializer use on cannon or back mage minions?

I'm a bit surprised you didn't mention Electrocute. Is it just not worth it on her? I've been seeming to having decent success with it but wanted to know what you thought.

Love your guides! Day one of asking for a Vladimir guide

Hi man, could you do some guides on Yasuo, Yone and Sylas, would be really much appreciated

Outside of laning matchups, what kinds of team comps does Taliyah struggle/excel against?

little question as someone not very skilled, how is kata an easy matchup? while yes you know where she is gonna land with her pasive, but her jumps are not dashes so its hard to near imposible to get stun on her bit later in the game once she can e in and e out before your w finishes its animation, do you just start shoving waves into her and make sure she cant ingage on you or what?

18:55 bruh, revolver hasnt been in the game in years....

Odysseus is the only taliyah content creator for me😤 still good luck on your journey 😤

My highest winrate is against Lux, she should be in the easy categorie in my opinion.

Great vid! But may i ask your thoughts on Everfrost? Is it so bad on her it isn't even worth addressing?

What about ROA now ? 😊

think we can get a s14 build for taliyah?

is this guide still good in this patch now???

Is this Guide outdated or stull fine?

Woah there buddy this is good content. Sorry but you will be receiving no views. It all goes to the "99% WINRATE YUMMI JUNGLE" guide

why do you start e against ranged champs?

Bro where is DH in runes

I'd suggest slowing the pacing of the video down a touch. Because of the snappy editing you were flowing into point after point with no room to breathe and let things sink in.

i perma ban her if im playing jg

Don't wanna be mean but isn't it litterally the worst time to make a guide on her as she's getting hard nerfed next patch ? xD
