No counter play.even if I stack armor he can still 1 burst. They need to lower his burst and raise his damage per second.

This is an idea, what if instead of being full on solo assassin, he was assassin/support?
What do you think about a big decrease to the damage of his abilities(20% cut or more) but improving his box and adding a short Silence to his Kaiten?
Also I think he needs a slower base movespeed, horrendously slow like Fortress.
Just improve Kaku duration & CD, faster movespeed while boxed but reduce all armor & shield (both base & item values) to 0. Or make it so he gets stunned for a second if he is forced out of his box by any kind of damage. Maybe .5 second stun duration for every level of Kaku, so being forced out of OverDrive Kaku stuns Taka for 2.5 seconds.

I love playing as Taka, he is going to be the first hero skin I complete since I like the hero and the tier1 skin, junked a few epics for it too. But even with a mediocre team that ends up losing, playing as Taka w/IGC my losing matches consistently end with more kills than the winning team.

Burst sucks high elo.

I have got good. I am taka player myself. I know he is incredibly op and the only we to beat him is with another taka. His early game is too strong. He needs nerfs.

**In early game scenario**
Taka is mainly jungle and you wouldn't want to trade hits with him in early game, stuns are great to shutdown taka's damage output, if you get the stun on him, you might beable to turn the fight around. If there's no stun you might want to go defensive with your positioning. If it is a Taka vs Taka scenario the one with swift shooter wins.

**In midgame teamfight scenario**
The way he can burst down his opponent depends on positioning, taka usually goes for the squishy backline sniper/mage, when he does this it is best(my opinion) to get your frontline carry to go after the enemy backline sniper/mage. if he attacks the frontline carry then the backline carry can just kite him.
If he's not careful he can be easily get isolated from his team which then led into a 3v1. And also if there's a hero that has a target-stun you would want to focus on taka all the time(unless he's underfarmed) since he doesn't have much hitpoint.
This also depends on what hero your team pick(example : your team have 2 backline sniper/mage and 1 support roamer, that mean you'll have to go defensive) which shouldn't be a problem for high tiers.
Most low tiers would just get scared by the burst and try to runaway when it is better to return damage.
Not to mention your item builds which again shouldn't be a problem for high tiers.
Everything i said is much easier to say than done tho and sorry if i made a mistake on something.

You no understand. I stack armor. He still one shots. I stack armor + health. He still one shots. He press block, no stun work. Team's only hope is that taka is noob, which is unlikely and inconsistent.

'he press block, no stun work'

'team's only hope that taka is noob, which is unlikely'

thank you for just admitting that the taka is better than you. what, he knows how to use reflex block, so you call him a noob character? pls, thumbs him up instead for skilled play

Wow, learn how to comprehend texts geek. I can tell you have no life + friends.


I was saying that taka may only be defeated if the player is noobish and doesn't use block appropriately. Otherwise, there is 0 counter play.

Wow, aren't you just the best at throwing shade. Learn how to use scout traps and flares. Stay near your turret. Build armor. Done. You'll live.
