I didn't know it was a 10% increase to damage when cc'd too, but still, that's a pretty good amount.

Just for clarity, that's Talon's passive, and that's the main reason people want to buy the Frozen Mallet on him.

okay on the fm tf debate:
on my opinion fm would be better on talon IF he was and ad/as carry. atm he seems more of a burst assassin to me so id say tf>fm
i tried ghostblade fm on him and the fm just feld to cripple my brust by too much.

maybe brut-tf-ghostblade? naturally starting with boots 3pots and 1-2 dorans

still i need more practice but atm i really really like him

Yeah, TF > FM now that I know the actual stat of the passive. :(

Fatma's > TF alone though because I heard his ratios are so good.

Also I faced someone with the BT stacking **** and he still didn't do as much damage as a triforce build, trolololol.

I think triforce is better for him, since think about it this way:

1. a lot more useful stats to an assassin/carry than FM
2. you spam Q a LOT, and this will give you a lot more damage from TF procs
3. Your passive is meh...only 10% damage, and your W slows anyway, and you STILL get 35% slow chance proc from TF, so you still WILL be dealing bonus damage with passive more often than not, just not EVERY hit like you would with FM; but I think TF would result in more damage anyway, because of the procs. And as I said, you still will be dealing additional damage with the passive more often than not.

Triforce is a waste of gold, as the AP does not benefit him.

1. Triforce is 4k gold, BT is 3k.

2. BT build REQUIRES a last whisper or it's ****, same can be said for the TF+ghostblade build.

If you're trying to say that talon does better damage with TF compared to a bloodthirster, then i'll have to say you're ******ed.

It's pretty plain, Q+W+R scale too well, for the gold cost, TF does less damage than a bloodthirster.

3BT, TF, LW, Boots is the optimum build for damage, but it's like 16k gold, which is a 50m~ game for most.
Tri lane for life.

Perhaps I should write in detail:
Theres no lying that in theory this gives a little of everything that benefits Mr. Talon.
However:
    It doesn't provide enough damage.
    Sheen's AP is a wasted stat.
    Frozen Mallet is a core item due to its permaslow and permabuff for talon.
    Phantom Dancer synergizes better with Infinity Edge than triforce.
Rushing Triforce is too expensive to get instead of other items early that would provide more straight AD damage and burst that you would get from the Bloodthirster.
