New Pink Taric says otherwise

Also they revealed the Taric Update and dear god he's Support Kalista. As in; he can link to a nearby ally [Which remains until he changes or moves too far away] and his abilities then cast from both himself and his ally.

Did I mention his new ultimate makes himself and all nearby allies INVUNERABLE for a short time after a delay? It's literally a delayed AoE Kayle Ultimate which can be cast from two places at once like what the hell.

Also apparently Taric was now one of Garen's best pals but stuff happened and ultimately:

'Returning to Demacia in shame, Taric was stripped of his rank and sentenced by Garen to endure ?the Crown of Stone,? a ceremony that demanded a dishonored soldier ascend Mount Targon, known to all as a death sentence, as few mortals had ever survived the climb.'

Apparently Garen is Judge; Jury and Executioner.

WOW OKAY NEVERMIND

I mean, all the Taric skins look wonderful now, but DAT MIDRIFF

Not to mention that sounds like a fun and potentially OP support kit. Right, looks like I'll be mining Taric support from now on.

Raikaria · « **Reply #787 on:** April 05, 2016, 08:21:03 PM »

'My gems aren't merely outrageous... they're FABULOUS'
'Gems are truly... truly... TRULY outrageous'
'You know what they say about big gems? Right?'
'Shine on you Crazy Diamond'

New Taric VO is even better than old VO. The delivery of the lines is also great.

hyorinryu · « **Reply #788 on:** April 05, 2016, 09:19:19 PM »

I liked the old VO better. New VO's voice is too high imo. I like some of the quotes though.

I hope he doesn't end up getting gutted and ignored.

holy shit he actually has a different animation for firing his stun backwards

its fabulous

I've got to admit, Pink Taric is the most hilarious skin I've ever seen.

I heard someone say the new Taric looks like a model called Fabio Lanzoni, went to google it and boy..... it does look a LOT.

Raikaria · « **Reply #794 on:** April 06, 2016, 07:40:34 PM »

My brother was trying to get a Bard Box. He kept getting A+.

Me; annoyed with getting Jungle never; duo Q with him. I am Jungle/Support. He is Support/Fill.

I get support. He gets ADC.

I play Bard.

We win.

Before my end lobby is booted up I heard 'NO NO NO YOU DIDN'T' from his room.

S+ on Bard. I was 5/2/23 and did things like stunning a Zed with a Lee-Sin mid Q [Which causes some funny things because Lee keeps going until he hits then is stunned]

I'm a little sad; I wanted to get my Bard S as jungle Bard but I NEVER GET JUNGLE.

EDIT: RIP Dignitas; the end of the Baron Throw era.

And now there is only 1 midlaner who's actually from NA in all of the LCS [NA and other regions]

Patorikku · « **Reply #795 on:** April 08, 2016, 08:38:23 PM »

Say, clubs have been a thing for a while now. Has anyone actually made the MotK one yet, or...?

Also, it seems they made the V on Pink Taric's model deeper to match the splash art. Bless~

I'm pretty sad about some the splash arts they're changing. Some of the old ones look at better. In particular, I 'm annoyed about Frostfire Annie and Safari Caitlyn.

TBH, I'm fine with most of the changes, but maybe that's just me. Well, the new Midnight Ahri one is a bit iffy.

What I'm sad about is that they removed Poppy's annoying AA>Passive>AA combo. It was fun to take out chunks of people's health like that. I guess Zed's nerfs made it worth it, though.

That was pain for me, good riddance, i want to at least have a chance at beating one in lane.

Heh, it was really powerful. Between that and the Q (the simple hammer-slam with the lingering hitbox that they also nerfed), you could burst somebody down really quickly. Let's make clear that Poppy is not a Mage, nor a bursty champ, so I guess it was justified in that regard.
Nevermind that I play Poppy like one anyways just because I'm an Ahri main...

Holy crap Quinn is fun to play on ascension, never felt that good to play a semi-squishy on that map except her

Poppy could make it impossible to farm for melee though. I'd use to just Q the enemy whenever they came in to CS, and use the shield to proc Grasp every time. Tilting as fuck.

I like playing Zyra on Ascension. Strong zone control to protect people during capturing things, she provides vision, and on Ascension few tanks exist so you get to really shred if you build mpen.

Monarda · « **Reply #803 on:** April 11, 2016, 09:37:06 AM »

Just finished BO10, 6/4 and got Silver III :V , maybe this year i can get to gold.

Also, Zac is pretty good ! So fun and strong.

NekoNekoRex · « **Reply #804 on:** April 11, 2016, 04:56:35 PM »

Yeah Zac is great. I feel like I mentioned it in thread but I'll reiterate - Max E first in the jungle. The range increase is ridiculous and you'll have a much easier time ganking. Due to how Zac's regen works you can even just gank multiple times in a row until you nail it. W second because its your strongest move.

I hear lots of people like AP Zac but I never got the chance to really try it when I played. He's a fantastic tank due to his % Health damage on W and his stuns and initiation.

Bardiche · « **Reply #805 on:** April 15, 2016, 08:55:20 AM »

I don't get why suggestions on Reddit and Riot's official boards are written as, "Can we reduce slow on Fizz's ult?"... because we can't do anything. Why does everyone speak as if we're all part of Riot?

Raikaria · « **Reply #806 on:** April 15, 2016, 09:24:26 PM »

Of all the things people complain about on Fizz; the slow on his R is something I have never seen.

In fact I rarely see people complain about Fizz R at all. Except Fizzes missing the fish but still killing them. Which isn't so much a complaint ABOUT R.

Didn't see this post.
Anyways, yeah, that is kind of a big issue Poppy presents right now, considering there have been many games (but not all, obviously) before the patch where I completely nullify their farm. Once you hit level 6, it was possible to engage with E, then W>Q>R>Q>AA>Q and then they're dead. After you did that a couple of times, they just hugged their back line and couldn't do much of anything until you left lane. Or a gank forced you back for a few seconds.

Yeah. Maybe it's just me but I think the stupid bit is his E>Q. Much like Poppy's problems, once he starts doing that (and he can do that from level 2), I tend to get forced back, and have to buy all sorts of Armor/MR items just to stay in lane. Even when I play safe, though, he can do it again and force me back to tower. Essentially, it's that one combo that's the issue. And all of that is 200MP/16s. CD at level 2, and 140MP/8s. CD at max level on both skills.
