Corki vs Taliyah

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize safe CS and poke with (Q) and autos without overextending into (W) and (E) zones.
Avoid extended fights before item spikes and preserve (W) for defensive repositioning.
Use post-6 (R) poke to control mid fights and force Taliyah off wave or recalls.

Trading pattern

Use short poke trades with (Q) and autos, then rely on (R) after level 6 while keeping (W) for escape.
Step forward to punish Taliyah if she wastes (W) or (E) cooldowns before they reset.
Avoid extended trades when (W) and (E) are available to prevent displacement into slows.

Danger windows

Beware when (W) and (E) are up, as she can displace and slow you for follow-ups.
Avoid using (W) aggressively forward to prevent vulnerability to her all-in windows.
Watch for her roams; punish by hard pushing wave and taking plates during her absence.

Early game

Farm with (Q) and autos to chip health while respecting (W) displacement and (E) slow.
Do not use (W) forward early to avoid being caught by her crowd control setup.
Respect Taliyah's medium early agency by avoiding trades without (R) or damage items.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) for repeat poke, shifting lane control to Corki's favor.
First completed damage item significantly increases poke threat and wave pressure.
Mid-game item spikes enhance poke damage, making earlier neutral trades risky for Taliyah.

Win conditions

Scale safely into item spikes and use (R) poke to control fights and deny her roaming.
Exploit cooldowns on her (W) and (E) to create short windows for poke trades.
Use (W) defensively to reposition away from displacement and maintain lane presence for scaling.

Tip: For Corki vs Taliyah, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
