How to win the jungle race as Sejuani against Taliyah · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Sejuani's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Taliyah.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Respect Taliyah | A W toss into a stunning boulder field bursts you at every choke point — Sejuani has no answer to that at level 1. Threaded Volley on worked ground still chunks melee contests on their half of the map too, so skip the level-1 crossing and answer the pressure cross-map. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Respect Taliyah | Boulder-field poke plus the W shove keeps duels at their range, and Sejuani has no clean answer to it on the second camp — a W toss into a stunning boulder field bursts you at every choke point. Don't chase her across worked ground — the mine slow turns retreats into kills, and give up the second buff rather than the kill. |
| Level 3 Route | Respect Taliyah | The window at the opening scuttle belongs to Taliyah: the W-into-Q burst combo plus E mine field wins fights at choke points. Your own line is real — your kit wins ganks and team skirmishes, not raw buff-pit 1v1s — but it arrives second here. Don't chase her across worked ground — the mine slow turns retreats into kills, then give up the level-3 river fight. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Even — Farm & Track | Levels 4-5 are a stalemate vs Taliyah — match their clear speed, keep river vision, and bank gold for the level-6 window instead of coin-flipping. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Glacial Prison Favoured | Glacial Prison turns any pick into a team kill — throw it at whatever your laners can reach. Weaver's Wall splits the map, so the margin is real but narrow: fight when your ultimate is up and Weaver's Wall is the one on cooldown. |
| First Item Spike | Sunfire Aegis Spike | Completing your core item triggers a massive area-of-effect burn and health multiplier that completely overpowers traditional physical brawlers in extended fights. Taliyah's first item makes the volley-into-shove combo a real burst instead of chip damage from range. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Even Scaling — Prep Decides | Both kits pay off at 2+ items — late fights vs Taliyah come down to who enters with cooldowns, vision, and numbers. Win with setup, not stats. |
Start your clear at the Raptors or Wolves camp utilizing your Winter's Wrath to maximize early AoE clear speed. Taliyah clears very fast with Threaded Volley on worked ground and rotates faster than almost anyone off her passive.
