Taliyah's really in the wrong game.

Normally champions have the aspects that they can stay true to their lore and their fantasy while fighting on Summoner's Rift. Taliyah's fantasy is about the wonder of the world and discovery and learning, having small times where she stays in one place for a time before eventually pushing onwards to the next destination. It's about the world around her being huge and unknown, and she's constantly traveling in search of new things.

And you really can't get this from what League of Legends is. You know the map off by heart, you know every single thing about it already. She should be in something like Shadow of the Colossus or Ico, or Breath of the Wild. That sort of genre. She really suffers to make a notable impact and have a strong fantasy when her fantasy is constantly fighting against the gameplay she's trapped in.

I have been thinking a lot about what changes could be made to her gameplay to help her out and make it more suited, and the only thing I can possibly think of is to give her Bard-like chimes which she has to travel to collect. You just cannot have the wonder of discovery unless you're not completely sure where you'll be headed.
