Lissandra vs Taliyah

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Lissandra is a control mage who thrives on punishing Taliyah's forward movement with W root and R lockdown.
Manage lane pressure by denying Taliyah safe space to poke and avoiding extended trades where she can kite through E and Q.

Trading pattern

Trade when Taliyah steps into W range or after she wastes Taliyah W or E.
Use Q to poke and hold W to root her if she tries to dash or walk through your zone.
Only use E plus R to engage if you have jungle or ally follow-up to lock her down.

Danger windows

Be cautious when R is down, as Taliyah can pressure with poke and displacement.
Avoid using E forward without follow-up, as Taliyah can punish predictable engages.
Watch for Taliyah pushing and roaming with R; hard push wave and ping to avoid losing mid control.

Early game

Use Q to farm and poke while holding W to punish Taliyah if she tries to commit close.
Avoid engaging without R ready, as Taliyah's poke and displacement can punish your E engage.
Control the wave to prevent Taliyah from pushing and roaming safely with R.

Power spikes

Lissandra's major spike is level 6 with R for lockdown and self-peel.
Respect Taliyah's level 6 R for map plays and roams that can leave you vulnerable.
First completed AP or utility item boosts Lissandra's control and threat in trades.

Win conditions

Win by controlling short-range threats with layered CC and denying Taliyah safe poke windows.
Use W and R to lock down Taliyah when she commits, enabling jungle ganks or roams.
Create engage angles with E from fog or flank to catch Taliyah off guard and snowball lane control.

Tip: For Lissandra vs Taliyah, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
