With no dash, Annie eats Taliyah's repeated Threaded Volley (Q) poke head-on, while Taliyah rides Rock Surfing (P) move speed to sidestep the Pyromania (P) stun on Summon: Tibbers (R) and Disintegrate (Q), keeping the edge.

Veigar depends on landing Dark Matter (W) and Event Horizon (E) for stacks, but Taliyah uses Rock Surfing (P) move speed and Seismic Shove (W) to escape Event Horizon (E), denying stacks while pressuring the lane with ranged Threaded Volley (Q) poke.

Melee Nasus has no range and can't farm Siphoning Strike (Q) stacks under Taliyah's Threaded Volley (Q) poke, while Taliyah shoves him off with Seismic Shove (W) and pushes the wave to create roam and plate-gold pressure.

Kayle is melee-ranged early with no dash, so Taliyah can keep slaughtering her before level 5 with Threaded Volley (Q) poke and Seismic Shove (W) knock-in all-ins.

Zed uses Living Shadow (W) and his mobility to dodge Taliyah's Threaded Volley (Q) and Seismic Shove (W) skillshots, then instantly bursts the squishy Taliyah with Death Mark (R) for all-in dominance.

Fizz turns untargetable and evasive with Playful / Trickster (E) to nullify Taliyah's Seismic Shove (W) knock-up and Threaded Volley (Q), and once on top he one-shots the squishy Taliyah.

Wind Wall (W) blocks Threaded Volley (Q)'s stones, but it does not stop Seismic Shove (W) or Unraveled Earth (E)'s ground effects. Yasuo can use Sweeping Blade (E) through minions to take a short trade after Q is down.

Akali uses Twilight Shroud (W) stealth and Shuriken Flip (E) / Perfect Execution (R) dashes to dodge Taliyah's Threaded Volley (Q) and Unraveled Earth (E) skillshots as she closes in, overwhelming the squishy Taliyah with sustained all-ins.

Irelia weaves through Taliyah's Threaded Volley (Q) and Unraveled Earth (E) using Flawless Duet (E) stuns and minion-targeted Bladesurge (Q) to instantly close the gap, easily catching a Taliyah who has no self-peel.
