Read from Taric's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Milio.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Milio | Milio's Q range and W heal out-poke your melee kit at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Milio | At 2 his knockback and range let his ADC trade safely into you. |
| Level 3 | Milio | Through 3 his passive and W sustain outpace your mana-limited heals. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | At 4-5 it evens as your Bastion sustain comes online against his poke. |
| Level 6 | Taric | At 6 your R invuln forces a kill his cleanse-heal ult can't undo, favoring you. |
| First item | Taric | First item brings double-Q sustain plus your E stun lockdown, tilting lane to you. |
| Two+ items | Taric | Late, your invuln all-in beats his heal-only disengage in extended fights. |
Milio wins levels 1-3: his long-range Q kick and W heals let his lane out-poke and out-sustain you while your only tool is a short melee Q heal, so farm safely and don't force melee trades into his range. His kick knocks your carry out of position, so keep the link up preemptively rather than reactively. Hold the stun for the follow-up rather than the kick, and put the pressure on their ADC rather than on Milio, whose healing matches yours without a wind-up.
