Is Taskmaster good?
Taskmaster does well against opponents who lean on passive tools like Evade or Auto-Block. His Special 1 Bleed doesn't look like much at first, but it stacks up fast as Debuffs pile onto the opponent over a fight, especially once his Signature Ability adds more into the mix, and its short duration means Deep Wounds makes a real difference.
Multi-hit Specials that get around his Photographic Reflexes, champions who benefit from Ability Accuracy reduction, and Purify stripping his Debuffs all work against him, which keeps him at C.

Weaknesses
- Multi-hit Specials can get around his Photographic Reflexes
- Weak against champions immune to or benefiting from Ability Accuracy reduction
- Purify strips away the Debuffs his kit relies on
Profile
Taskmaster's full name is Tony Masters.
Background
Tony Masters was a S. H. I. E. L. D. agent who exposed to an experimental variant of the Super-Soldier Serum, called the Mnemonic Primer.
It grants him the ability to duplicate any movement he sees, but at a cost.
The huge amount of information his brain records, causes it to overwrite his own memories, replacing what little remains of his original self.

Exploit Weakness
Passive · Cooldown 5 secondsTaskmaster spots a weakness in the last Attack his Opponent attempted, which can be exploited by striking his Opponent with that same attack within 10 seconds. Successfully exploiting a weakness instantly deals 3156.8 Direct Damage. An attack that will trigger Exploit Weakness will not trigger Passive Evades or Auto-Block.

Learn the Foe
PassiveEach time a Debuff is placed on Taskmaster, all future Debuffs placed on him have their Potency reduced by 10%. If the Debuff Potency reduction reaches 100%, Taskmaster becomes Immune to Debuffs. If Exploit Weakness is on Cooldown, the Cooldown immediately ends, and the target is set. If Taskmaster has triggered Exploit Weakness in the last 1 second(s), or his current Exploit Weakness target is Heavy Attack, he avoids any incoming attacks for the first 1 second(s) of charging this Attack.
Intuitive Pattern Recognition
Signature AbilityIncreases Concussion Debuff Durations by 1.28 - 5 second(s). Each time Taskmaster successfully triggers Exploit Weakness it places a Concussion Debuff on his Opponent reducing their Ability Accuracy by 5.53 - 12.5% for 6 seconds and resetting the Duration of any currently active Concussions caused by this ability. If Taskmaster places 5 Concussions on his Opponent simultaneously, they convert into a Passive effect which reduces Ability Accuracy by 27.83 - 65% for 15 seconds, counts as 5 Debuffs for Taskmaster's other Abilities, and removes the Exploit Weakness cooldown timer. While this effect is active, Taskmaster will not trigger additional Concussion Debuffs.
