Guide to Countering Trundle as Taric

Tips for Playing as Taric against Trundle

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 Trundle

Trundle is very powerful at location-based combat. Try to draw him off of his Frozen Domain.

Make sure to get out of his Pillar of Ice as quickly as possible, as it significantly slows you down.
