High ELO Player Carries With Unpopular Champion In Off META Role... HOW?
Vložit

- Today, let's talk about a league of legends champion that is very unpopular, even within his own role. This champion is a great support, with an amazing kit... yet, no one plays him, why? On top of that, there is a player in NA High ELO solo queue that consistently reaches grandmaster, that plays him in the Jungle. What is going on with Jungle Taric??! This video was written, produced, edited, and voiced by Kellen (Exil)

A shame you didnt mention Willyrex Fanboy, a OTP Taric challenger who hits 1000LPs pretty often. Also he makes LCK players feel afraid of getting in SoloQ
1 advice for him : predator + Uhunter, i think it was played when funel was meta, and now that you cant stack targon on itj anymore, this could be a good strat.
Nice , hey Exil i have a Video idea. The history of Support from worst to Second best Role in the Game.
Hello, could u do a video where u explain why korea and china are much better in league than na and eu?

Exil: Mana is always an issue for Taric
*Season 12 adding FimbulWinter, a tank mana item*
My destiny awaits
hard truth actually
gg item for john dyr build
Wait the name really is FimbulWinter? Is riot capitalysing on the God of War Ragnarok release? :)
You have the same mindset as me hahaha
@@cnaro8073 it was originally in wild rift and Taric mains have been asking for the item in league since the beginning of wild rifts release
man it sucks that league has such interesting lore and backstory in game and out of game yet the game it's self brings nothing but torture to me
true that
@@Exil22 in all honesty exil it would be cool if you talked about how to endure the mental bombshell this game throws at those who play it and maybe talk about why veterans say not to get into league
@@thedezzydez851 Started s4. It's been a minute.
this is why I hope to god one of their new games coming out is going to be some sort of RPG, which they claimed was, but how am I supposed to believe anything they say when they can say things like "we don't think new champions are unbalanced overall".
Yet you play it
I no longer play league, but watching videos like this reminds me of the old times when I loved league.
I'm glad you still enjoy the videos at least :)
I play randomly, but finding mind like friends is extremely difficulty. (Causal,older age).
same.
I can sadly relate
Same dude. My husband and me stopped playing like 3 months ago. It just sucks out so much energy and time.
What if we took Taric Support, and pushed him somewhere else?
Taric top exists
Anywhere but mid with Yi
what if you didnt delete my comment
@@RhehutBreadman I haven't deleted any comments
taric top kick ass
Lightrocket2 is the legend. Not only is he the best Taric, he is wholesome and a really great person too.
Btw, Doran blade is for faster clear + some free sustain.
"This isn't a complete history of Taric"
*so anyway, let's take a complete look at the history of Taric*
It’s always the unexpected champion in the unexpected role that makes all the difference
Ain't that the darn truth
I just played a game where i managed to go 8/0 vs teemo as Tryndamere in lane. Rotated all game, caught kills and saved team mates... took both heralds and got two dragons. They had a vex, jinx, teemo, soraka and rammus. As soon as team fights would happen my whole team would explode and I'd get taunted, feared, blinded, taunted, rooted disabled for my whole health bar and ult period with near full build and merc treads. Even when I could make it out alive liandries burn would still dot kill me. It's not even like the game was heavily in there favour income wise, we were winning. Team fights were just impossible even when we had the undeniable advantage due to point click cc leading to massive chain stomp cc. I hate new champions man. Vex is disgusting in team fights
@@Exil22 when we get a league private server i will have fun with old taric.
I always did wonder why Sivir had a skin with splash art that looked like it came from Fire Emblem: Heroes. I could probably see her with that skin being in that game.
Weirdest thing for me is it's the skin that changes her crossblade to a chakram in game and she really isn't holding a big circle in the splash.
Iirc that's a xena reference. Which aired before a lot of league players were born, lol
Ah yes, another rise of low elo taric junglers is coming. Thank you Exil
"Midlane isn't a 1v1 lane anyways"
Finally someone mentions this. It's not my fault I got ganked 3 times while permanently pushed under tower and the overleveled support killed me 1v1.
It's your fault, since you chose to stay there. Mid is free to roam to top or bot.
Like Tyler1 said.
You’re bad at the game so whatever floats your boat.
overleveled support lul
What is the obsession with league players and avoiding responsibility? Does it legit make you feel that much better avoiding reality? You die, it's your fault. If you can't handle being in the MIDDLE of the map where the most pressure is always going to be, then just play a different role.
It's an obvious joke and you all missed it. Maybe try playing less league and using your brain more often.
Next season with the new tank tear item, taric will be op, trust me
That item is in wild rift
@@cizula9936 Keep up. They’re moving items from Wild Rift into league.
On one hand, respect for being able to do that. On the other hand it is extremely annoying to see your laner randomly getting heals😵
LOL true
HappyChimeNoises covered a Taric Top some time ago - pretty massive aswell.
This is one of my favourite things to play
Every Taric player knows the legend of Taric Jungle, before the Mythic Item Rework it was hard to make him work but was super fun to play anyway. But with the new items he's been so viable in the Jungle!
For real? I haven't played taric jg aince season 10
I hardly ever play League anymore (I think I have around 20 ranked games this entire season), but man I love when you upload content. Your videos are so in depth and cover so much info, and it's clear how much effort you put in to editing them.
If you were to do more videos like this, about certain players having quirky picks like this, it'd be awesome if you could (assuming they would be willing to work with you) have some kind of interview/Q&A segment with the player. Like where you could ask Rocket why he picks up Doran's when he does, or what made him decide to try Taric in the jungle to begin with. Things of that sort.
Thanks for the content!
20:46 - literally explains how every champ should play out for perfect balance, love it! Adjusting builds, thinking about gold efficiency, outsmarting opponents
Taric OTP here and Taric has always been super adaptable in many roles with many builds. He is phenomenal if played well and with patience. Thank you for shining a light on a character that means so much to us over at the Taric community. The more general knowledge out there about him will make our game quality much better. A common complaint from our own team is "what does Taric even do" due to his unpopular nature.
I love your documentaries man, keep up the good work.
love u
I play Taric and love Lightrocket for showing me i can play him anywhere. Jungle is so fun with him
Man i love your background music. It adds a rly mystic flare to your videos. Keep on doing such great work!!
I really don't know why I didn't see your channel before, but I'm glad I finally found it! Awesome job, man!
I said this many times, but your documentaries are amazing from a technical view. It contains everything: good intro, the main part that has it all(how, why, pros, cons etc) and a solid conclusion. You could probably make a documentary about quantum mechanics for a major television if given enough material and expert help and it would be amazing. Now, I recently watched a stream where a Pyke mid ot got r10 in NA and thought to myself- even tho relatively short the history of that pick would make a really interesting video. Cheers!
His production level is just soo good
Like how he narrates everything and how the video goes is just sooo good
Well done!!
Please keep going
Hey man! Love the video, you should do a video on the splash art unification. I remember when they did that and your stuff on it was pretty interesting
I loved that hesistant "probably don't" when you showed Yuumi.
I think because they really enjoy what they’re playing and limit testing. They don’t care what others think about them and focus on their own champion’s strengths in that role and their own performance. Granted, that doesn’t mean we should all just go off meta, but that does mean for us is that we should be enjoying what we play and strive for pushing our own limits. Because in the end, motivation and striving is more powerful than any tier list or winrate.
This off meta unpopular champ shtick might actually be the true embodiment of one-tricking to an extreme level. They know their champion in and out and what they can do vs others. I wouldn’t be surprised if they knew how to play their one champ against every single champ in the game - that means they have an inherent advantage no one else gets.
This, so much this. If you know very well the capacities of your favorite champion, you can go any where and make it work.
Way back in season 4-5 I played Nasus Support when the ADC relies so much on AA (Ashe, Jinx, MF, Tristana) due to his E that shreds amor a his W to slow them.
Nasus by default is tanky, so I went with more armor, Magic resistance and mana items, you didn't need stacks, you just need to be there and intimidate the enemy.
Rylais to slow them, Frozen Heart to reduce Attack Speed, Spirit Visage to improve his passive, the rest is up to adapt the enemy team.
Some people were Mad with me, some others had a huge laugh seeing him work, others asking why it works, and some one literally calling him 'A personal Watch Dog'
This is why I kinda like off meta picks, I can't be Mad at them because I used to do that. (I quite after season 6, from time to time I play Wildrift)
@@FinalShadowZX Nice name, anyways Kled used to be my most played champ (stopped playing) and sometimes I go Mid Kled if I got
A.) An enemy mid laner who loses to trades like a really bad zed/yasuo
B.) A melee jungler where I can coordinate an ult with like a Rengar
The difference is that usually junglers are much closer and are more likely to gank mid which I can help with using Q,E and R (from experience) plus I can have a really fast rotation without relying on teleport since I can use ult on top and bottom lane, It's funny seeing Zeds scote plummet to 0/6
Good video man. I might hop in a norms today and play taric. I miss playing him.
Notifications coming in clutch when I'm bored, thanks for the upload man!
Love u
Always love an exil video
I'm glad you mentioned Gosu Pepper/Edward games with Taric because that was what make me pickl up the champ after watching him make It work. also, at that point League had a huge amouint of mobillity and Taric point and click stunt was pretty useful to me. I played him a fair amount before the rework and to this day he's my 3th champ with most maestry point, inspite now pllaying him once in a while for all those nerfs.
Something that always cracks me up is that people usually understimates Taric's damage, no matter his role.
I have that sivir skin and its always bugged me how the blade in the splash art looks completely different in game
Athene's Unholy Grail used to be amazing on Taric. Just read this and tell me it isn't *exactly* what Taric wants.
+80 ability power.
+36 magic resistance.
+15 mana regeneration per 5 seconds.
UNIQUE PASSIVE: 15% cooldown reduction.
UNIQUE PASSIVE: Restores 12% of your maximum mana on kill or assist.
UNIQUE PASSIVE: Increases your mana regeneration by 1% per 1% mana missing.
It was a very offensive item that Taric could build instead of another magic resistance item and it dealt with the vast majority of mana issues that Taric had. It did get some changes, such as the following, along with some other stat changes:
Mana regeneration per 5 seconds changed to 50% from 10.
Unique Passive "Mana Font" changed to "Restores 1.5% of missing mana every 5 seconds".
The passive was later increased to 2%. While it was sad to see the flat MP5 go, the change to the mana regen passive made up for it.
Of course, this didn't mean the mana issues were gone, but it made your life far easier. Sadly, they changed the item and Taric sort of fell with it. While some runes did help him, he could no longer be the crazy spam healer that he used to be while assisted with the massive mana regen from the item, and this also meant that his damage was decreased a lot with it.
It wasn't anything they did to the champion that made Taric less useful. It was the items, and releasing other champions with kits that could simply outperform him at their respective roles.
I miss the glory times of Taric.
His rework made me quit. Im looking forward to a oldschool league server where I can play him again.
@@tacky4237 Pretty much same here to be honest. I loved the massive buff he gave with the old ultimate for example, and the armor shred W Shatter was amazing. They honestly could've changed the E (stun for those uninitated) and increased his movement speed by 5 and the champion would likely be in a pretty good spot.
@@CottidaeSEA people underestimated him and now dismiss you for liking old taric because they didn't play back then. I wish people understood some just enjoy different things.
I feel like Taric with this new mana item for tanks might make him really strong in a lot of roles.
True. I mean Merthos and lightrocket2 are always on my mind when mentioning off meta and unpopular champions.
A vars upload followed directly by an Exil upload? Christmas arrived early this year :D
:)
Taric was my “main supp” back in the day and I honestly never saw another Taric on any team unless I picked him lol. Btw I used to max 1st his “W” which was called “shatter”, and my friends thought I was trolling bcuz I didn’t max his heal or his stun. But his W passively gave you extra “damn good” armor/MR with each rank, which “always” made me tanky asf in the early game without having to buy any items compared to my opponents. On top of that the W’s active actually “shed enemies armor” essentially enabling your team to do true damage early game, and also gave Taric decent burst damage. Add in his steroid ultimate that used to boost your entire team’s AP and AD by like 40 each at level 6, it was almost guaranteed won lane with multiple kills fed to ur Adc by level 6.
13:00
wait? Is that runescape music? Pog
I remember playing the old taric top lane with trinity force infinity Edge and statikk shiv, point click stunning an enemy and 2-shotting them :Dd
Why didn’t this video pop up in my recommendation sooner!? I’m a Taric main and this video make my day so much that I continue my 20 game losing streak!
I love the fire emblem sivir art, its really cool
i have had played against Taric tops. they carry super hard after 2-3 items.
thanks for such good quality content. keep them coming. wish you well.
The dorans blade is because if you take adaptive force on taric it starts as ap until you build an ad item.
There is a tiny frame window where you can stun two people alone. If u flash on someone right after the stun actually stun the first target, u wil stun both of them
talent at its best what a genius
light rocket is alright too i guess :D
amazing stuff man great work
Dude the power is in our brain not in the champion that we play,it all about building good situations for you and your team
You forgot to say about the meta of some seasons ago, Taric top full armour, where you started with a cloth armour and went strait to frozen heart. TY for the video
Damn, just opened CZcams to one of the best documentaries out there ♥
Love u
@@Exil22 No, I love you.
As someone who loves playing Taric thanks for letting me known about his jg role. Can't wait to try it.
Good luck out there gamer
My boi Lightrocket2 is in this video :D
Heck yeah!!
Your videos are pure ART and they always make my week!
I played old Taric a lot, and climbed from Bronze to Plat with his reworked version. He’s still underrated in my opinion, the CC and his R can be absolutely game changing. Glad to see him get some time in the light.
I too crack up at the disparity between those two skins
also note that sivir skin from china has a different sprite in game
ingame model is not the same with the splash art
the new Sims looks nice 19:53
For me, this is awesome. I played taric a tone and played him jungle before I even learned about light rocket. back when twisted treeline existed. He is a blast
i found your chanal as you made the great video about my past onetrick champion Aatrox and now u make another great video about my "new" main taric. i learned to love taric as i started maining support on 3v3.. but sadly everything i like riot removes.. aatrox.. 3v3.. so next taric will be gone?
Please do more of those one trick extremely random picks , they are amazing
15:50 this is a mechanic a lot of league champions have. Such as darius with q flash or riven with also q flash
I like how all tryn mid credit goes to yasuke but neace was the first one to figure out fleet footwork tryn mid
amazing as always
thanks so much
Still waiting for the Braum video i'll probably will enjoy it very much and keep up the good work
the Runescape music caught me off guard lol
Your videos are amazing to watch while eating feels like im watching a movie.
hope you ate something yummy
I think the Dorans Buy is for the Buildpath, none of the items he builds seems to include AD (dont know about athenas) but i believe he cant buy a Longsword to build out of, so he goes for HP and Damage + Lifesteal
i loved old taric. played him as an armor tank burst mage
A couple of years ago i played everything in jungle, orianna and taric were my favorites
Miss ur videos dude, I love them (sry if i speak bad english im from argentina).
Thank you for the kind words! Hope that life is good in Argentina! Have a great day
I love Taric and I get sad seeing that he's not good enough. I like how he is an enchanter and a tank at the same time; but Thresh and Rakan kinda are too and more useful. I really hope he enters the meta with the new item, Winter's Approach
I lowkey love that sivir skin (old one) and barbarian sivir too.
Looks way much better than the newer ones.
Classic Radiance Ult + Starks Fervor + nashor`s tooth omg
I miss the OG Taric
Old Taric was my first Penta kill
i miss old taric ;-; -my boi was so good. once the enemy team picked 5 AD and i just whipped out taric and got a penta not long after. shame he also got reworked not long after.
although i'm main taric support, i'm admire people who plays in the jungle, love your videos exil.
Love u
dude it's because of lightrocket2 I was able to get from bronze to plat just with taric he made me love the game again
I played Rumble jungle, long before this season and it was very effective. I also played Irelia jungle but after her rework, it was not as viable. With new items it is once again but I am not good on her now. And yes I played Taric jungle. His passive used to restore mana on hit. Taric jungle can be surprisingly good. I too ran into the same issue of my own team not understanding how he works.
I love the calming music in the background, psychologically telling you that this is ok
There is a korean challenger called eddy(애디) who is a top taric user he also plays top Leona
exil just took over happychimenoises job
I played with lightrocket a few days ago and he's a nice dude, I love seeing other people playing weird shit. I am like the only master brand mid one trick
what's your setup? runes? summs? build? play style? cheese strats?
16:48 The Doran's Blade should be for adaptive AD since Taric should have AP as standard. The same reason Katarinas start Doran's Blade
love your content
i like how you make good videos with the worst arguments. impressive
I did get one and only victory on Ascension mode with old Taric and he is the only reason me having all Ascension summoner icons =)
I have the perfect ascension icon as well, lol. It is such a flex to have on your profile
I remember trying him jungle one year ago, but the fact that the runes and itemisation are so wierd and without any kind of corelation made the games oddly unsatisfying to play for me.
Oh boy. I remember the Taric Urgot terror!
Holy shit, Lulu shield used to last 6 seconds?? The ardent censer meta is coming into view for me now.
There are some builds only player that love soo much the champions get to know and HOW to use.
Mine is Quemtech turbo tank shyvana with glacial augment.
It just does so much DAMAGE, like, more damage than my REAL DAMAGE build hahaha.The reason is just that I get to live forever, and thus, dealing constant shyvana-like base damage.
sorry the bad english btw
1 time I saw somone playing taric jg with press the attack and I tryed it and now still sometimes play it.
I used to main taric, it was way too fun playing him, I miss old taric so much..
what? okay, that ivern mechanic just suprised, might use it later
As a taric main nice to see him get some content!
i saw exil upload, never exit ranked queue as fast as today.
ayy love u
Lol I do love the e+flash for instant stun
Pls make video about graves from adc to top tier jungler or braum one of the most played champion in pro scene thanks a lot for your work and time to create this content
“Some are strong and some aren’t” *shows ryze twice*
Still not wrong.
I miss point and click stun and armor shred from old Taric.
Instead of PTA, LightRocket also goes Glacial Augment on occasion; especially when playing Blueside for the easy level 2 gank bot through the tri-brush. If he goes Glacial Augment, he usually picks up one of Chemtank (rarely) or Randuins (more more reliable) to activate the AoE slow.
Few other tips:
Similar to Warwick, you don't need to buy a refillable at the start of the game; your healing should keep you topped up. On Blue Side you should double-camp the blue buff with gromp because Taric's single-target clears are slow because you can't afford to spam Q without Blue buff (and even with Blue Buff, Taric's Mana Pool is too low early).
Lightrocket doesn't finish items early; Taric is a very strong early game and you want as much early-game power as possible so he buys components: Glacial Shroud, Plated Steelcaps and Bramble Vest are his most frequently bought early items. Glacial helps with his mana pool issues and Bramble/Steelcaps give a chunk of early armour (passive and E damage scale with armour).
Skill order: Take Q level 1, then E. You can gank top (red side) or bot (blue side) here at level 2 if you have Glacial Augment. Take W and then level E->Q->W. Take a second point in Q at level 7 for the increased healing.
Early game try to look for plays or 1v1 vs the enemy jungler; there are only a handful of champs who can actually handle you early game (like Warwick and Xin). Post-6, group with your team every time your ult is up and force a fight; you can afford to take bad fights (like dives) and still win because your ult is so op. He goes great with engage champs that can force fights for that reason.
level up q at level 4 then max e. raptors trick doesn't heal much if you don't have 2 points on q
asked about the dorans blade in one of his streams because he says its stronger and has more utility than something like longsword
i memba s5 iceborn taric, seeing a 4+ AD enemy comp and locking in a troll champ knowing i was just gonna go slamjam into 1v3s or more all game and still go positive was peak league
