Maps to avoid with Tara

On these maps Tara loses more often than it wins. The match count tells you how much weight to give each one.

How to read these numbers

A win rate only means something when enough matches sit behind it. Next to every number we say how sure we are:

  • reliable — 200 matches or more: a solid basis for a verdict.
  • fairly reliable — 80 to 199 matches: enough to spot a real pattern.
  • early signal — 30 to 79 matches: a hint, not a verdict.
  • too few matches — fewer than 30 matches, so we do not show a win rate yet.

A 60% win rate over 40 matches can easily be luck; a 54% win rate over 800 matches is a real edge. Maps and modes with fewer than 30 matches are listed without a win rate on purpose.

Blind-pick safety

Blind-pick safety is coaching metadata, not a meta ranking: it says how risky Tara is to lock in before you can see the enemy draft. Tara scores 7/10.

Best build

Gadget: Psychic Enhancer — Debuff that lets your team deal extra damage to the marked enemy.

Star Power: Black Portal — Your super spawns a shadow that deals extra damage and swings the fight.

Gears: Damage + Gadget Charge — Your burst spread needs to kill; extra damage hits the breakpoints.

Save your super until two enemies are grouped together.

Strengths

As a support, Tara is favoured into marksman, assassin.

  • With your black-hole super that pulls him out of cover you focus Spike: Spike is fragile and his cactus is easy to dodge.
  • With your black-hole super that pulls him out of cover you focus Stu: assassins have low HP once their dash is on cooldown.
  • With your black-hole super that pulls him out of cover you focus Crow: Crow has low HP and relies on poke.
  • With your black-hole super that pulls him out of cover you focus Leon: Leon is visible as soon as he attacks and has low HP.

Weaknesses

Tara struggles against tank, sharpshooter and on maps that do not support the support role.
