 * sighs* Uh well. I've been playing him since I bought him way back in season 2 and I have to say. I don't care much for him these days. He has his moments (most of it in ARAM) but when I play him in lane. It's a struggle and that's a successful laning phase.

You don't get far stunning anyone and you just sort of heal so you don't get out right ran out of lane. If you are lucky you just get enough gold to buy a mana item so you can start making plays. All of which will be comprised of you running up the enemies butt to do as much damage as possible while creating an AOE that will hopefully the impression that they should engage not that they know that their stats have been buffed (it was a lot better when just ulting on it's own hurt the enemy).

I'd trade his heal for Soraka's heal or Nami's heal any day of the week even though he's supposde to have the strongest heal it's just extremely expensive and it's not followed up with anything really palpable on the offense.

Shatter is probably the only Spell I really like and I'd still say it's got a lot of invisible damage I mean part of it's nerf is that the player couldn't grasp the fact that they lost a shitton of armor as Taric's animation barely display just how much of a loss in protection he had put you in. Conversely. Nobody really knows just how tanky they are when the crystal wall is up.

Gemcraft is basically useless. It was so much nicer when it had mana scaling that it's depressing to even think about how worthless your auto attacks are now. You need so much armor and mana to be useful and then you'll be wanting AP to make something of your magic damage.

He's like a lego robot you made in elementary school. It's not a real designed robot that was in the manual for you to make but you put it together and you throw it at stuff and it doesn't completely break but it requires nearly every lego in the bucket to make it that stiff and unbreakable as it's just a big block with arms.

That's Taric. A big block with arms that you throw at people. Maybe they'll fall down if you're lucky.
