Track: Taric's R — Cosmic Radiance (180–120s cooldown). The delayed invulnerability erases your teamfight damage — burst before it lands or wait it out.
Read from Nami's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Taric.
This is Nami's own plan; across 2,247 pooled games the lane is leaning Nami.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Nami | Taric's poke is short-range and his stun is slow, so you win lane control. |
| Level 2 | Nami | Your level-2 all-in beats his weak early sustain before Dazzle matters. |
| Level 3 | Nami | Your E burst out-trades his heals in short exchanges at 3. |
| Levels 4-5 | Nami | You keep out-trading his sustain through levels 4-5. |
| Level 6 | Taric | Cosmic Radiance invulns his duo through your all-in, so 6 favors Taric. |
| First item | Nami | Your first-item burst and Bubble re-take the trade advantage. |
| Two+ items | Nami | Late, you interrupt his single slow engage and punish his ult downtime. |
Levels 1-3 are yours. Taric's poke is a short-range heal and his lockdown is a slow, tell-heavy Dazzle, so you win the range war and the level-2 all-in; Bubble him when he steps up and shove him off the wave. His poke is short and his lockdown is slow, so out-range both and punish every wind-up. Empower your carry's autos while he is walking rather than fighting, and hold the bubble for the moment his stun starts charging instead of spending it early.
