All
Taliyah's W knocks enemies back a short distance after a brief delay — watch for the ledge to erupt, then immediately follow up with damage or crowd control on the displaced target.
Skirmish Team Fight
Taliyah's E lays down a long-range field of stones that slow anyone inside it for several seconds — knocking, pulling, or dashing an enemy onto the stones detonates them for bonus damage and a stun, so save your own displacement abilities to land targets inside her field rather than around it.
Team Fight Skirmish
Taliyah's R throws up a wall of terrain that blocks movement and sight for four seconds — use it to cut off an enemy's escape route or split the enemy team before your group commits to a fight.
Team Fight Skirmish
Taliyah's R lets her surf across the map at extreme range, reaching global distance at her max rank — if she signals she's about to use it, expect a sudden gank or roam and hold your position or extend the fight until she arrives.
Basic Lane Phase Skirmish
Taliyah reveals her location and can be knocked off the wall by crowd control during the one-second channel before her R erupts — clear vision and stay ready to peel so enemies can't interrupt her before the wall forms.
Advanced Skirmish Team Fight
Casting Taliyah's Q leaves Worked Ground beneath her for 30 seconds — recasting Q from this ground fires a single empowered boulder instead of five shards, trading spread poke for a much bigger hit on one target, so expect burst rather than area damage while she's standing on marked ground.
Skirmish Team Fight
Taliyah has no escape besides her R and passive speed boost — if her W and E are both down, be ready to peel or body-block for her, since she has very little defense against a dive.
