Well now that we have seen how his spells work in the spotlight and as you all know we can't rely on Phreak for builds..How do you think he should be built?

I know it's getting old but I think Trinity Force is a must on talon.

A build off the top of my head I'm going to try is:

Trinity Force - He seems to be able to spam a lot and I'm hoping his Q+passive proc with the sheen.
Ionian Boots of Lucidity or Mercury Treads - Being an assassin he is going to be squishy so Mercs might be best
Bilgewater Cutlass - Decent ad/lifesteal and a activate slow that will synergize with his passive
Infinity Edge or The Black Cleaver - Both are good items and I guess It's personal preference.



What do you guys think?

Talon looks like the master of KS'ing and Multi Kills.

Im not sure of the ratio's he has... But I would build him like this:

Boots (mobility looks key on this guy)
Doran's blade (more sustain and damage)
Triforce (sheen -phage- zeal) (obvious burst madness)
Bloodthirster (He looks like a farming beast, I think this item will benefit him alot damage wise and sustainability)
Banshee's veil
Last Whisper
Infinity edge/Guardian Ang


Looks like a really expensive build.. but the build up is good and will ensure everytime you come back from base you will be a bit stronger

I focus alot on Pure AD to provide heavy damage and combining that with Triforce will just make him a huge threat.

With all the AOE and escaping tools he has I don't think he really needs much survival.. and he should just focus on heavy burst and deeps.

For this champ I'd actually go Frozen Mallet over Triforce. He does have his own slow, but it's on a medium CD. Taking FM will make sure he is always dealing bonus damage.

I'd go

Zerkers/Mercs
Phage
Ghostblade
Phage into FM
Black Cleaver or Blood Thirster
Additional damage item


Solid inexpensive build might make Talon less bursty. So you can supplement Black Cleaver for Phantom Dancer and endgame Infinite edge if you're doing well.

Depending on his AP ratios I might even throw a Hextech Gunblade on him.

That sounds cruel and unusual.

Lock this man away.

Frozen Mallet seems very viable, and shakes my confidence in the necessity of Trinity Force

The Brutalizer, Bloodthirster, and Youmuu's Ghostblade are top tier for Talon, in my opinion.





Bilge Cutlass is a bad item that only works on champions who have hybrid traits because it only upgrades into Hextech Gunblade.

Guys... My first build


Advertising your build isn't allowed. Remove your link, or a mod will remove it for you.

The recommended way to get people to see your guide is to link it in your signature, and participate in the community.
The more you post, the more people will see. But, don't spam.
