Taliyah is a terrain mage: her passive raises her speed near walls, and Threaded Volley creates worked ground that she consumes to throw a stronger boulder that slows. Seismic Shove knocks enemies back, Unraveled Earth traps with mines that stun, and Weaver's Wall creates a very long wall she surfs on.
When: An enemy is within range.
Threaded Volley creates worked ground, the second one consumes it for a boulder that slows; Seismic Shove knocks the target toward your mines.
When: An enemy might dash.
Unraveled Earth creates a slowing minefield; if an enemy dashes or is knocked over it, the mines explode and stun them.
When: You want to block a path or move fast.
Weaver's Wall creates a very long wall and lets you surf on it.
Cast Threaded Volley while moving freely: the worked ground gives an empowered version. Use Unraveled Earth to trap dashes.
