Taric will always have the problem of being one of the most useless supports when your team is behind. He brings a lot of passive AoE power, but his active power is a real problem when someone on the enemy team is fed.

His 2 AoE abilites require him to be in Melee range, a place you don't want to be when anyone on the enemy team is fed and all you're running around with are Philo stone, lvl 1 Boots, and HoG.

His heal has no secondary effect other than healing himself which means you have to choose: do you want more passive power in leveling shatter, or more active power in leveling a long cooldown heal. Not a problem if you're ahead but it is if you're behind and need BOTH.
