· Taliyah is a new champion well-suited for playing in the mid lane.
· Runes like the new AP runes, First Strike, and Electrocute synergize well with her.
· Passive - Rock Surfing: Gains bonus movement speed near walls, allowing for quick roams and ganks.

Skill	Description
Q - Threaded Volley	Throws multiple rocks, dealing damage. When cast on worked ground, throws a single rock but deals bonus damage.
W - Seismic Shove	Similar to Viktor's skill, it can be cast in various ways, knocking enemies back. It synergizes well with E skill.
E - Unraveled Earth	Leaves rocks on the ground, dealing damage and slowing enemies.
R - Weaver's Wall	Creates a wall that can be used for movement or escape.

· Taliyah's basic combo involves knocking enemies back with W skill, then chaining it with E skill.
· If enemies dash or jump onto the rocky terrain of E skill, they can be stunned, effectively countering dash-heavy champions like Irelia, Akali, and Jax.
· Rylai's Crystal Scepter is a very good item for Taliyah. It grants a slow effect to her Q skill, significantly increasing the hit rate of her W skill.
· Her ultimate (R) creates a wide wall, allowing for various strategic uses such as disengaging, blocking enemy advances, and protecting allies.

· Purchase Rylai's Crystal Scepter to make skill combos easier with its slow effect.
· Utilize runes like First Strike and Sudden Impact to secure additional damage.
· W skill has a slight delay, so it's best to use it behind the enemy's movement path or on slowed enemies to increase its hit rate.
· Purchase Infinity Orb to maximize Taliyah's explosive AP damage.

· Taliyah's ultimate has a very long range, allowing her to join battles or cut off enemy escape routes from a distance.
· Even without using E skill first, knocking enemies back with W skill can make them hit the rocks of E skill, dealing damage.
· Utilize her passive's fast movement speed to push the lane and then roam, expanding her influence on the map.

· Taliyah has fast jungle camp clear speed, and thanks to her mobility passive using walls, her potential as a jungler is very high.
· In fact, there's a possibility that Jungle Taliyah might be utilized more than Mid Taliyah.
· Purchase Rabadon's Deathcap to maximize her late-game AP damage, allowing her to instantly eliminate enemy champions in team fights.
· She can clear jungle camps quickly with just her E skill, making her jungle clear efficient.

· Taliyah is a mechanically very complex champion requiring high mastery.
· Like Viktor, she is a champion that demands high skill, unleashing immense power in the hands of a skilled player, but can be frustrating otherwise.
· She consistently deals strong damage from early to late game, and especially her E skill's area-of-effect stun can create significant turning points in team fights.
· Due to her wall-based mobility and the importance of skill combos, Taliyah is likely to be a Niche Pick in Wild Rift.
