Taliyah tips:

  • Try to throw enemies into Unraveled Earth using Seismic Shove.
  • Remember, you don't always have to ride Weaver's Wall.
  • Once you have Rylai's Crystal Scepter, casting Threaded Volley at enemies chasing you is a great way of making them regret everything.

Playing Against Ryze

  • Ryze is especially dangerous to opponents that are marked with Flux.
  • Use Realm Warp's windup time to figure out how to deal with what may be coming out of the portal.
  • Crowd controlling Ryze during Realm Warp's windup will cancel the portal.
