TA dead ?

I used to be a TA Spammer (850games TA) but think, That in generell she is in an absolut horrible Situation Right know (or maybe its just coz i play less and got worse)

Imo, there are 3 Main reasons for this:

  1. TA is a snowball hero, and if she doesnt do so in early/mid there Is almost no Chance to win the Game anymore, coz she sucks Ass in Late. You simply cannot Farm 4-5 Stack ancient camp anymore at Loks Minute 7 or 8, the regenartion its just too strong., it takes way too much time and if the enemyteam ganks while Even trying to get the ancients, the Game is nearly over.

  2. botte is horrible anymore and only 1 rune in the river is unreliable.

  3. meta for couple of patches now is heavily team orientated and TA strikes from behind, high risk high reward, and once You Cant kill anyone with meldstrike, youre just food.

Her horrible winrate seems to Proof it which makes me sad. Just My 2 cents

Bottle is 20 times better than it used to be because there are 5 runes now, her win rate dropped from 48% to 41% because she doesn't have game changing talents, keeps getting kitted in the late game and keeps getting zoned in the mid lane almost every game.

Also she lacks damage in most cases, shes doomed if she cant kill the target in 3 hits.

She still dominates the lane if playing against the right match up, I'd have to play more than 1 game this patch to see why her win rate is lower. I think it's just that the meta is changing and different heroes are being picked. Idk tho, I'll play a few games more and come back if I find anything.

1: i've given up on getting stacks from my team, and just going to the ancient at level 5, stacking them once, farming them, and then take a neutral camp before going back to lane is fine. then go to the other ancient, stack it. repeat.

2: clarity is the best TA item. they can't cancel it cauz refraction and it lets you spamm refraction. buy everytime you can.

3: if it even happens you can't kill anyone with meldstrike, then you let your farm fall off.
