I have never played Taliyah before. After watching this guide, I hit challenger, graduated from college with a 6.9 gpa, got a job making $100,000k+ yearly, got married, and started a family. Jokes aside, this guide is put very nicely put together. Great job man.
Coming literally 3 horus after watching the video, played a couple game, legit applied exactly what's been talked about I wouldn't do well before like the first Q on the caster minions, won me trades asap. Coming first to obj and establishing vision / catching someone off. Everything nets me actual game winning edges. I love the accuracy with which situations are described, this guide breathes fundamental understanding it's so good. Felt like legit good rare content that goes in nice depths and very precise, very interesting then you said SSG has good sfx it's like the clown dressing up meme speedrun mate unsubbed unliked report for copyright and planning to aim at your eyes with a laser lamp from a distance in your next ranked game.
You know, I've been a bit lost in League lately. All my old friends are gone, haven't had much passion to continue. I've been taking a really, really, long break. I pop on to literally play a few AI games just to keep the mechanics fresh and movement alive. I'm going to be honest, when I ran into your channel, I didn't really take you seriously as I've been playing since day one and I didn't really respect your outlook on things about this game. Honestly hearing about your passion for always getting better and just gaming in general from a very analytical point of view and telling other's of your journey has help reignite that passion in me by a pretty significant amount. I miss the game, I miss always learning something new. I'm not sure what happened but I've been feeling pretty lost and after watching mostly all of your videos it's kind of shed some old but new light on the things I used to enjoy about that game. So from one human being to another I appreciate you. ... I think I'm going to go learn Taliyah O_o
Bro - When I saw your skin tierlist, I knew this guide was the OG. As a Taliyah main I 100% endorse it. Frejlord is so often underrated I think, yet it's look and especially the sound effects along with SSG are the best. Legit feels like I have dmg buff on those two skins. SSG is my favorite for this reason, look is clean and the sound is just too good. The pink chroma on pool party skin ? I literally have the same taste. Same for Crystalis motus. Jokes aside, that is really informative video ! I think you made a very very comprehensive guide. I especially learned on the lanning phase part, absolutely crushed it. I also play electrocute, I hadn't considered scorch, I've tested it, it's realy nice ! Loved the wave clear guide, R usage, and Q flash, btw. It's like you made a Taliyah bible. I shall come back to it whenever I feel I've lost my way lol.
this probably doesnt work well with electrecute but one situational build ive been doing with phase rush with great success is roa -> seraphs-> riftmaker you dont get a good one item ppowerspike but your 2 item spike is insane and it probably is the strongest taliyah build once you get full build. You end being super tanky and its super fun to play with. great if you can base with the right amount of money for an early catalyst but doesnt work every game because the build path for roa is so bad. ANy thanks so much for the guide I have loved your videos and you inspire me so much to improve as a taliyah one trick
amazing video, your past videos on ideology of league and applying lessons that can be applied to league and real life were really amazing too! Keep up the good work!
Hi, really good video, i like those because i learn so much about the champion ( like taliyah here) Just a question : Why did you put Anivia in easy matchup in your tierlist, i'm playing a lot of anivia, and i often bully her a lot (and solo kill sometimes taliyah). Is it because my opponent taliyah is bad ? Or is it really a good matchup for taliyah, maybe for another reason (like roaming or i don't know) ? Anyway, that was a good video, i wanna play taliyah now :D
Thank you! I would say Anivia is an easy matchup because I don't often feel a lot of threat from Anivia. As long as I can dodge her Q, which I am comfortable doing most of the time, I feel quite safe. You can outshove her early on and use that to get good skirmishes
Bro I absolutely enjoy your content but I uninstalled LoL today after 10 years of grinding Master. I'm done with the intentional griefers of this game. They just queue up and don't want to win. I hate when it happens.
Started playing taliyah cuz i feel like an earthbender from avatar and after watching this guide won a game 12 0, this vid was very helpful. Can you maybe do a jungle taliyah guide?
Probably won't do a Taliyah jungle guide because I don't play jungle, but you can still use some of the same Taliyah concepts here for Taliyah in general
25:19 dude. I just got home and wanted to just play a game of hail of blades Ekko for fun, for the first time. I was not expecting to just be hype analyzed to be put on a video lmao.
But in what world would you go shadowflame with lucidity boots and seraphs. I play Tali with sorcs and ludens and I still think Shadowflame is a garbage item. I think it’s only good on Tali jng and even then horizon is better I think
No not very good. Rylais doesn't give you any mana, lacks damage, and the slow is not really useful enough to make up for that. I personally do not think rylais is very good at all
Hi thank you!! Probably won't have many champion guides coming since I am currently a Taliyah one trick, but maybe in the far future when I play more champs I could make more guides!
I think it definitely can be good, but I'm so much more used to having tear that it would be a big change for me to not run it, so I haven't tried it yet but I'm sure I will in the future. It's definitely a fine item tho
I'm sure horizon focus is viable, I am currently experimenting more, but I'm not sure when. I think it is decent second at the least, but rabadons and a pen item is super crucial as you get to those 4/5 items
You can definitely use a lot of the same principles for Taliyah jungle! Obviously runes and Items are going to change a bit but the skirmishing and ability usage will definitely be pretty much the same
Hi Sentrial! I'm new here on your channel (i'm from Odysseus btw). I really don't recommend the Shadowflame at all instead of the GOD ITEM: HORIZON FOCUS (idk, i think i gave the item 50 matches to make me say its good, but its not), but at the rest of the video, really like it, imma go and watch your videos on Taliyah ❤
@@Sentrial And 2 more things (sorry 😂), the Seraph "rush" and the treasure hunter rune. The seraph is best builded 2nd because when u build it 1st, it's not full-stacked (it's like 200-250) and another item will be best 1st (like Horizon or Cosmic). And pls try more ingenious (reduces the cooldown of Seraph, Horizon, Crypto, Zhonyas, Banshees, Luden, like what more are u looking for, instead of like what, 300 gold from treasure, I just don't see it worth enough).
I can't really give you any tangible advice just from hearing your tank, but i would just suggest letting go of previous peak ranks as much as you can and really focus on the details of your current games. Figure out trends of mistakes. I also can't comment too much on jungle being a mid main, but hopefully that gives you a good start. I will say i assume its probably not an issue with you playing taliyah but more of a holistic gameplay issue.
It's very lane dependant. I like to level my W at level 3 if I feel I am getting close to kill threat with a W E combo or if I need it for safety. Otherwise, the extra Q damage for poke and wave clear is generally more value.
@@SentrialDang, I've been interested in Taliyah JG for a while, but it seems like most of the content creators that play Taliyah JG are actually mid mains getting filled.
When I play Taliyah, I press ult on minimap and go into wrong direction so often. Is there any way to turn it off? I'm asking here because maybe you as a seasoned veteran would know. Couldn't find any information on reddit.
No, unfortunately I don't think there is any way to turn that off, I have also don't that many times. I actually had to make my minimap slightly smaller to reduce that happening haha. Very annoying for sure tho, it also will go the wrong direction if you cast it when hovering over your champion portrait. Just something you have to do your best to avoid
@@CougarX haha yeah it just takes some practice and being really fast with it. I'm sure given some time and practice you will be able to throw it out quickly too!

The objective example at 28:40 was really good, really showcases the importance of staying in fog to gain advantages.

Best taliyah making the best guide, love to see it
such a specific thing but i love how much ur comparing here against viktor as he is my frist main and i still main him and trying taliah now

Is Rylai's not good as a first item?
No not very good. Rylais doesn't give you any mana, lacks damage, and the slow is not really useful enough to make up for that. I personally do not think rylais is very good at all
Im so excited to watch this!
Is an Irelia guide somewhere on the horizon? Do you have a list of champions you plan to make guides for? Great video btw :3
Hi thank you!! Probably won't have many champion guides coming since I am currently a Taliyah one trick, but maybe in the far future when I play more champs I could make more guides!
nevermind i just saw you said star guardian taliyah is a bad skin. disliked.
@@scarl2t i didnt say it was bad! I only rated it A- :')
Finally, btw what you think about Luden, cause I saw Odi started playing it quite often
I think it definitely can be good, but I'm so much more used to having tear that it would be a big change for me to not run it, so I haven't tried it yet but I'm sure I will in the future. It's definitely a fine item tho
Awesome video!
Is horizon focus viable as a third/fourth/fifth core?
I'm sure horizon focus is viable, I am currently experimenting more, but I'm not sure when. I think it is decent second at the least, but rabadons and a pen item is super crucial as you get to those 4/5 items
Thank you for this complete guide !
a question tho : Can I use this for Taliyah jungle ?
Yes
You can definitely use a lot of the same principles for Taliyah jungle! Obviously runes and Items are going to change a bit but the skirmishing and ability usage will definitely be pretty much the same

Thanks!

I main JG with her too

Great video
Hey why do you wait to level up w until level 4? Like is the w+e combo worse than q poke?
It's very lane dependant. I like to level my W at level 3 if I feel I am getting close to kill threat with a W E combo or if I need it for safety. Otherwise, the extra Q damage for poke and wave clear is generally more value.
@@Sentrial cool thanks.
I know this is primarily a mid channel, but any chance you’d consider making a jungle Taliyah addendum?
That would be nice but I just could not give any really good advice on jungle Taliyah because I don't play it unfortunately :(
@@SentrialDang, I've been interested in Taliyah JG for a while, but it seems like most of the content creators that play Taliyah JG are actually mid mains getting filled.
@@huathebardOdysseus is a really good jungler even if he is a mid main. He always does really well and claims JG is OP because of it.
amazing video
Oddyseus invented electrocute acsstually ☝🤓🤓

There should be a setting that you can’t click on map and your cursor should be in the ground behind it instead😇
respect to odysseus
Katarina being easier than Oriana or Veigar it's not real bro
How to you cast your W with quick cast? Like how you know which direction you can throw them towards?
You press and hold down W, and then you move your cursor to determine the direction, then you release to cast it. Try it out in practice tool!
@@Sentrial but you guys cast it like there's no delay at all.
@@CougarX haha yeah it just takes some practice and being really fast with it. I'm sure given some time and practice you will be able to throw it out quickly too!
