Talon Discussion Thread

[quote=VoiD]Discuss Talon here. Stuff that I found out [list] [*]His Q deals damage to towers, takes down towers like a baws with sheen. [*]He has SO much burst, even more than akali imo. [*]He basically has no mana cost. They are SOO low. But he has decent cooldown. [*]His cape is ugly. [*]I love his playstyle. It's like Kat, on the other hand its not like kat. It's complicated. [*]his E deals a mediocre damage, needs buff. but pretty devastating late game. [/list] He really deserves the 6.3k ip price, not OP and not UP. good job riot. -UPDATED- Skill Priorities [list] [*]R - Really underpowered, only hits once on the way out and once on the way in. I use it as escape/chase mechanism. [*]Q - Most people master W first, but I disagree, Q deals more damage overall and E + Q combo early game is devasating. [*]E - The damage amplifier is great and E + Q combo is like Jax's Q + W combo with silence. [*]W - I max this last unless im laning against champions like Morde. [/list] Some stuff I noticed; People get hungover their passive too much. W is not a good skill to max first. R only hits twice. Trinity force is not a good item on him. Extremely item dependent Items: Dorans Blade Boots Brutalizer Phage Merc/Ionian boots frozen mallet atma and rest situational[/quote]

[quote=JunSupport]I just got out of a game where a guy claimed that Talon was best built tanky dps. Mainly rushing Frozen Mallet before any other items (excluding boots)[/quote]

[quote=Bryun]HOW MUCH IS HE??? EDIT: Oh, you said he was worth the price he was put for... I thought you meant he was put a lower price but be reasonable for 6,300...[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]6.3M Too much for anyone to handle.[/quote]

[quote=VoiD][quote=JunSupport] I just got out of a game where a guy claimed that Talon was best built tanky dps. Mainly rushing Frozen Mallet before any other items (excluding boots) [/quote] No, he's an assassin type character who deals tons of damage in short duration and either dies or gets away. I start with Dorans blade, get boots, brutalizer, merc threads, triforce, ghost blade, banshee, bloodthrister.[/quote]

[quote=Yukimaru]what are his ratios? Exact cooldowns? exact dmg ratios pls? n stuff[/quote]

[quote=JunSupport][[Talon]] [[Mercy]] [[Noxian Diplomacy]] [[Rake]] [[Cutthroat]] [[Shadow Assault]] Nothin really known yet.[/quote]

[quote=Joobieo#41288]He seems like a tanky dps though honestly. Burst in ... come out and come back in taking no dmg but still doing dmg lol. Due to his short cooldowns..[/quote]

[quote=JunSupport][quote=Joobieo] He seems like a tanky dps though honestly. Burst in ... come out and come back in taking no dmg but still doing dmg lol. Due to his short cooldowns.. [/quote] That would make him OP. He has no survivability or escape mechanics besides his ultimate. His skills will definitely scale with bonus attack damage and make it vital to have power over bulk.[/quote]
