Peaf if we're gonna do the Taric/Trist lane than you have to know one thing and one thing early:
There are very few if any lanes that can win trades with us at level 2. Stun+Armor Lower+Rocket Jump+E is more damage than anyone can do back to us. It's alot of magic damage and unless the enemy has Soraka its terrifying.
It's a very simply combo and one that sends an enemy back to base or forces them to get zoned early which gives us a nice lead. We'll work on it this weekend for sure.
As for items it's really situational but Shury's, Oracles and Wards is standard. I'm selfish and always asks supports to get Locket because I just happen to like it :)
