Introduction
It seems like I'm not explaining things well enough to this site in order for this to become a guide. So lets drop some filler.
Also, if you don't get the title, do Talon's /dance or shift+3 in game.
Mark: Armour penetration. Talon uses physical attacks, as such people might stack armour instead of Magic Resist. You need some way through, so here it is.
Seal: Armour. This will allow Talon to take a couple extra hits while you wait for cooldowns while you're running away.
Glyph: Magic Resist. Again, it'll give you that survivability I feel Talon needs to survive his fights.
Quint: Desolation. Like the marks, Armour Pen will help you get up to your full potential damage.
I've thought about switching out the armour runes for Attack Speed for faster stronger hits. Its just a thought and I might give it a go sometime. If anyone has tried this please give let me know how it works.
As for the utility column, I think that perhaps the Good Hands talent would be good. However I reconsidered this to add to some health regen and bonus experience to give Talon more laning time and boosted experience gain to get your talents up faster and start rocking faces.
Then get your boots. Personally I grab dagger before boots of speed as you should be able to run away well enough early game. Thats just a judgement call, if I found I was using my flash and exhaust for running I might pick my boots up earlier. Then snag the Greaves and trololololol.
Start on Youmuu's blade with avarice then the Brutalizer. I've done this a few times and it works out fairly well.
Then get your Frozen Mallet. Because of Talon's passive, this combo's incredibly well. Slow!
Here you could get Black Cleaver or Bloodthirster. Personally I get Bloodthirster so that I have some extra life steal to keep me alive longer.
If you're in game long enough or have farmed enough gold, get your Infinity Edge. Sell Doran's Blade to pick it up.
If you're feeling it, grab some Health Potions early on, give you more lane presence and maybe help you get more cash faster.
Next is Noxian diplomacy, bleeds your target and marks them for you so you can chase better. Also resets attack timer so you can deal extra damage.
Then hop onto cutthroat. Great for initiating and chasing. Hops onto your opponent and then silences them. Very useful all around.
Of course don't forget about your Ult, putting points in whenever you can. I find this skill very useful for chasing, running and just cleaning up. It can also be used to run the **** away, as it makes you invisible and gives you a %40 speed boost.
Here's a combo I like. Noxian Diplomacy into Cutthroat, then if they try and run hit them with Rake. And to finish the job (or run the **** away) pop your Ult and wait for cooldowns or get the **** out of there.
Exhaust: Because of Talon's bonus with slowed opponents this makes a great chase tool. Slow them down and get the extra damage. Or use it in a team fight to take down the enemy faster. Again, it can be used for running from those fast champs.
Alternate choices for me would be:
Ghost: Sometimes running is more fun, and its a longer and more sustained escape and chase ability. Its entirely up to you, but I prefer Flash for a quick get away.
Ignite: If you switched your talent tree up a bit you could put a point into this instead. If you can't chase this would be good to burn down your enemy and make sure they die.
If anyone has any tips, suggestions, comments, concerns, ideas, or anything else, let me know! I'm always looking to exchange info with people and maybe we can play some games together and rock faces!!!!!
