Taric
Champions that beat Taric
- Brandsupport
Brand's Sear Q stuns Taric the moment Blaze has him ablaze from Pillar of Flame W or Conflagration E — Taric has no dash to escape the stun. Pyroclasm R bounces past Bastion W tether range, Conflagration E spreads through the linked ADC.
- Jannasupport
Janna's Monsoon R fires during Cosmic Radiance R's 2.5s delay window and pushes Taric's team out of the ally radius before invulnerability can apply. Howling Gale Q knock-up interrupts the engage before the stun lands, Zephyr W chip slows Taric's approach.
- Morganasupport
Morgana's Black Shield E on her ADC blocks Bastion-extended Dazzle E stun, breaking Taric's only hard crowd control. Dark Binding Q roots Taric out of Bastion W tether range, Tormented Shadow W chips him during the root.
- Pantheonsupport
Pantheon's Shield Vault W point-click stun-jump lands before Dazzle E finishes charging, and Comet Spear Q chunks Taric levels 1-5 with no Cosmic Radiance R safety net.
- Zyrasupport
Zyra's Grasping Roots E locks Taric outside Dazzle E's 610 range, freezing him while Garden of Thorns passive plants chip his HP. Stranglethorns R covers Cosmic Radiance R's 2.5s delay window, forcing disengage before invulnerability ends.
Champions Taric beats
- Blitzcranksupport
Blitzcrank's Rocket Grab Q is a single-projectile hook on a long cooldown that commits his entire engage. Bastion W shield on the ADC eats the Power Fist E follow-up auto, Starlight's Touch Q heals the pull displacement damage.
- Karthusjungle
Karthus's Requiem R is a global nuke that fires after a 3-second channel, and it deals flat damage rather than executing — Cosmic Radiance R's invulnerability window covers the snipe entirely. Lay Waste Q poke is healed by Starlight's Touch Q stacks.
- Nautilussupport
Nautilus's Dredge Line Q hook is a single-shot pull that commits his cooldown to start the fight. Bastion W shield eats the Staggering Blow auto root, Bastion-extended Dazzle E stuns him before Riptide E AOE slow connects.
- Neekosupport
Cosmic Radiance (R) invulnerability nullifies Pop Blossom (R) damage on the entire enemy bot lane cleanly. Bastion (W) shield link absorbs Tangle-Barbs (E) root chain damage and Dazzle (E) delayed line stun cancels Shapesplitter (W) clone bait windup.
- Pykesupport
Pyke's Death From Below R executes targets below an HP threshold (the bar where the spell starts killing). Cosmic Radiance R grants 2.5 seconds of invulnerability on a wide radius — the execute does 0 damage during the window.
- Threshsupport
Thresh's Death Sentence Q hook is a slow projectile he commits to start every fight, and Damnation passive scaling needs souls he cannot collect under Taric pressure. Bastion W shield blocks the Flay E follow-up knock.
