Tips for Playing as Taric with Malzahar
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 Understand How Malzahar Will Play
Use Call of the Void and Nether Grasp to renew the duration of Malefic Visions on enemies.
Wait to cast Void Swarm until there are nearby enemies for the Voidling to attack or kill.
Avoiding damage in lane maximizes the uptime on Void Shift, increasing Malzahar's safety dramatically.
