Guide to Countering Ivern as Taric

Tips for Playing as Taric against Ivern

The cooldown reducing component of Bravado makes Cooldown Reduction items like Frozen Heart, Iceborn Gauntlet, and Spirit Visage exceptionally powerful on Taric.

Using Starlight's Touch at lower charges makes its healing less Mana efficient, but can greatly increase Taric's sustained damage via Bravado.

Rather than saving Cosmic Radiance for the last moment and risking someone dying during the delay, it can be more beneficial to cast it as soon as you know a teamfight is guaranteed to start.

Advice to Win Against Ivern

Be careful when fighting Ivern alone if he has Daisy ready to help!

Ivern's brush has a long duration. Watch out for ambushes!

Ivern can be deceptively slippery. Be careful chasing him too far.
