I don't get it. If Talon gets his damage from his abilities, why not make him scale with AP?



... That, sir, is a very dumb question. A character whose abilities ONLY scale with AD, all of them, why would you even think about AP ? ..

I really do not get your question, should read the section witht he abilities explaint.

:D

He is asking why Talon wasn't designed as an AP champion since he relies so heavily on abilities, not why he shouldn't be built AP.

I think the reason is simply that it would've made Talon far too similar to champions like Katarina and Akali, who fill the AP anti carry role almost to perfection. To add another would really be quite unnecessary. It also doesn't really fit with his style (being a complete rip-off of Ezio and all).

Great guide!
Even though, the Jungler part is quite incomplete, same for the Items section where I think you could add some item versus hard AP teams like the Force Of Nature from which Talon gets some good MR and more MS :)
Also, I have some screens of my games with that build :You can use it as you like, still thanx to you I discovered THE champion which is the best suited to my playstyle :)
Thank you dude, you earn more than 90% !

Great great guide. I just bought Talon and on my first game I got 14/7. I carried my team and won even with 2 feeders!

Great guide helped me a lot. Would show you a game of mine but idk how to post pics. What would really help a lot is to explain the playstyle of talon and how to play him etc.. Had a hard time at first figuring our how to play him otherwise great guide!!

Overall I think this is a good guide. You display an excellent understanding of Talon and provide a well argued item guide. I have two critiques that I hope you will consider. First, I'd like to see a section about his skill combo. You touch briefly on how to use his skills throughout the guide and under ganking, but I feel that this needs to be expanded on and deserves its own section. What does Talon do in teamfights? One other thing. Your math in the Trinity Force section has some flaws. You are calculating AS incorrectly. The formula is baseAS(1+bonusAS/100)=totalAS. Your AS would come out too about 1.2 with TF and the offense mastery at level 18. You are forgetting to factor in the crit damage you gain from the Lethality mastery. One last thing the damage you get from TF is an on hit effect which means that it is not a factor in your crits which only scale from total AD. Besides that I think that your choice of Trinity Force is well argued. Hope all that helps!
