Read from Taric's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Lulu.
This is Taric's own plan; across 2,606 pooled games the lane is leaning Taric.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Lulu | Lulu's level-1 Q double-slow and E poke out-trade your slow, CC-less start. |
| Level 2 | Lulu | At 2 her poke plus shield safety win the early exchange you can't punish. |
| Level 3 | Lulu | Level 3 Lulu still out-pokes and out-peels you with Q and E up. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Around level 4 your shields and E stun bring the lane even against her poke. |
| Level 6 | Taric | At 6 Cosmic Radiance beats her Wild Growth peel on any target you've locked. |
| First item | Taric | First item lets your all-in blow past her single-target Polymorph and shields. |
| Two+ items | Taric | Late game Radiance and chain stuns overwhelm a pure enchanter's single-target lockdown. |
Lulu edges levels 1-3. Her Q double-slow and E poke out-chip your kit while her shield and passive keep her ADC slippery, and you have no lockdown to answer. Don't force the poke war; soak the chip, keep passive stacks up so your ADC heals back, and hold your E for when her Q is down or she oversteps. Ward for your jungler since Lulu enables aggressive dives. Her polymorph cancels your wind-up, so make her spend it before you commit. Keep the link up preemptively, hold the stun for the beat afterwards, and let the empowered autos rather than a poke war decide a lane an enchanter is built to stall out.
