Prioritize efficient full clears to reach your scaling window before contesting Taliyah in river or jungle fights.
Use your superior clear speed and dueling power post-item to contest Herald and Baron, leveraging (R) true form for map pressure.
Jungle Plan
Focus on fast, repeated camp cycling to reach your first item spike quickly, avoiding risky early fights.
Contest Herald and Baron setups aggressively once you have (R) true form and item power spikes.
Use cross-map pressure and counter-jungle when Taliyah commits to river control or side-lane roams, prioritizing camps and objectives she leaves vulnerable.
Danger windows
Avoid isolated river fights early before your first item when Taliyah can punish your mobility with (W) displacement and (E) anti-dash zones.
Beware of forced smite fights around Herald and Dragon when Taliyah has lane priority and vision control.
Respect moments when your health is low after clears or skirmishes, as Taliyah can exploit your reduced sustain and mobility.
Early game
Start full clear and avoid early invades unless a high-value fight is guaranteed with lane priority.
Fight for first Scuttle only if nearby lanes can assist or have priority to counter Taliyah's river control.
Track Taliyah's pathing and be ready to counter-gank her early river or lane ganks, especially around level 3-6.
Power spikes
First item completion grants you sustained damage and dueling strength; fight around objectives or invade with lane support.
Herald or Baron takedowns empower your (R) true form to apply map pressure and break enemy defenses; convert these into deep vision and tower plates.
Respect Taliyah's level 6 (R) for map plays; avoid extended fights or invades when her ultimate is available to prevent being cut off or collapsed on.
Win conditions
Use your superior clear speed and scaling to reach item and stack thresholds before forcing fights.
Convert objective takedowns into map control by applying pressure with (R) true form, securing towers and deep vision.
Deny Taliyah free farm and vision by counter-jungling when she commits to river or side-lane pressure, leveraging your dueling to punish overextensions.
