Taliyah
Champions that beat Taliyah
- Bel'Vethjungle
Bel'Veth's Royal Maelstrom E channel out-trades Threaded Volley spread inside its own damage-reduction and lifesteal window. Above and Below W knocks Taliyah up and cancels Seismic Shove W aim, Void Surge Q's four directional dashes break her stun timing.
- Ekkojungle
Ekko's Phase Dive E closes onto Taliyah before the Seismic Shove W delay resolves, and Chronobreak R rewinds the damage if her setup does land. Timewinder Q passes through her on the return, Parallel Convergence W stun ambushes her at the side-lane gank point.
- Fizzmid
Fizz's Playful / Trickster E makes him untargetable during the Seismic Shove W aim window and the stun frame. Urchin Strike Q closes onto her before the Seismic Shove W delay resolves, and Seastone Trident W chips her HP sustained.
- Gravesjungle
Graves's Smoke Screen W nearsights Taliyah, blocking her vision outside the cloud while it slows her inside, and End of the Line Q detonation damage shreds her HP before she can E-stun him. Quickdraw E dashes him outside her W displacement angle.
- Kha'Zixjungle
Kha'Zix's evolved Leap E matches Seismic Shove W's 900-unit range and resets on takedown. Taste Their Fear Q hits far harder on an isolated target, and Void Assault R invisibility lets him pick his engage angle after her mines are already down.
- Lee Sinjungle
Lee Sin's Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike Q pair closes the gap before Seismic Shove W's 0.79s wind-up resolves. Safeguard / Iron Will W shield eats a Threaded Volley Q rock, Tempest / Cripple E reveals her in brush.
- Nocturnejungle
Nocturne's Paranoia R blacks out vision and target-locks Taliyah from a screen away, and Shroud of Darkness W eats Threaded Volley Q with a spell shield. Duskbringer Q's bonus move speed on the trail crosses her Rock Surfing route.
- Yasuomid
Yasuo's Wind Wall W blocks every Threaded Volley Q rock for 4 seconds, though it cannot stop the Seismic Shove W ground quake. Sweeping Blade E gives him the minion dashes to close before her W delay resolves, Steel Tempest Q knock-up sets up Last Breath R.
- Yonemid
Yone has no wall, but Spirit Cleave W shields off her Q chip and Mortal Steel Q knocks her up at range once he holds 2 stacks. Soul Unbound E lets him reach her before the Seismic Shove W delay resolves, and Fate Sealed R drags her out of position.
- Zedmid
Zed's Living Shadow W ignores Seismic Shove W's aim window — he swaps with the shadow onto Taliyah before the 0.85s delay finishes. Razor Shuriken Q chips her while she is stuck waiting on that delay, Shadow Slash E slows her in place.
Champions Taliyah beats
- Amumujungle
Amumu's Bandage Toss Q is a long-cast slow projectile and Curse of the Sad Mummy R only reaches 550 units, so he has to walk into your minefield first. Seismic Shove W lands behind the Q wind-up target, Unraveled Earth E stuns through the displacement.
- Aniviamid
Anivia has no dash and Rebirth egg only saves her once per cooldown. Seismic Shove W displaces her out of the Glacial Storm R zone she was sustaining on, Unraveled Earth E mines stun the egg respawn frame.
- Anniemid
Annie has no dash and Molten Shield E is a small shield, not an escape. Seismic Shove W's delayed knock-up lands before she can land Disintegrate Q for her Pyromania stun, Unraveled Earth E mines chain the displacement into a multi-mine stun.
- Fiddlesticksjungle
Fiddlesticks's Crowstorm R is a 1.5-second channel that telegraphs the gank route with sound effects. Seismic Shove W displaces him out of the AOE landing zone mid-channel, Unraveled Earth E mines stun him when he tries to reposition.
- Ivernjungle
Ivern's Brushmaker W brushes are static spawns that Rock Surfing crosses faster than he can rotate. Seismic Shove W shoves him away from Daisy, whose knock-up is his only lockdown, and Threaded Volley Q AOE clears his brush approach.
- Karthusjungle
Karthus's Lay Waste Q is a delayed blast on a fixed spot, so Rock Surfing speed walks Taliyah out of it. Threaded Volley Q's 5-rock spread out-trades it in invades, and Seismic Shove W shoves him out of Defile E's 550-unit aura.
- Veigarmid
Veigar has no dash to break Seismic Shove W's 0.85s aim circle and his Event Horizon E cage telegraphs his commit point. Taliyah lands a clean W displacement onto his own cage, chains Unraveled Earth E mines for the stun.
- Xerathmid
Xerath's Arcanopulse Q needs charge-up time and he has no escape once Taliyah steps up. Threaded Volley Q's 5-rock spread out-shoves his waveclear, so Taliyah takes the wave, then Rock Surfing gets her to the side lane first.
- Ziggsmid
Ziggs's Bouncing Bomb Q has travel time and detonates in an area, and Satchel Charge W self-knockback is his only escape on a long cooldown. Threaded Volley Q out-shoves his waveclear, Seismic Shove W lands during W downtime.
