Each time the blades move, Shadow Assault deals 120/170/220 (+90% bonus Attack Damage) physical damage to enemies they pass through.
Combos
If you're going to go do some small trades you should always use
Noxian Diplomacy before you use cutthroat because once you jump your next auto attack will apply your passive mercy with the addition
Noxian Diplomacy damage.
You don't want to poke often with your
Rake when your at your early laning phase because it drains mana.
1. The Laning Phase Combo
For number 4 make sure you use your ult before in vision of the enemy.

1. The Laning Phase Combo
- E+AA+Q+W(Tiamat)+AA
- Youmuu+E+Q+W+AA+Tiamat+R
- Youmuu+R+E+Q+WW+AA+Tiamat
For number 4 make sure you use your ult before in vision of the enemy.

You want to Build Armor Penetration for your Marks instead of the typical Flat AD marks because you have so much burst they are bound to build armor against you. The Armor Penetration will negate some of their armor.
Masteries:

Items:
You want to rush
Tiamat it will really help you with your combos and farming/clearing. If you're against a AP mid laner try to build
Maw of Malmortius for your 2-4 item. Must buys are
Ravenous Hydra and
Youmuu's Ghostblade.
Youmuu's Ghostblade is probably the most helpful item besides
Ravenous Hydra it gives you that extra movement speed when you use your
Shadow Assault or to catch up to fleeing enemies.
Youmuu's Ghostblade is really good because it basically replaces
Stormraider's Surge
.
Other really good Items offense wise is
Duskblade of Draktharr,
Black Cleaver,
Lord Dominik's Regards,
Mortal Reminder, and
Mercurial Scimitar
For boots I like to go for
Boots of Swiftness with
Alacrity
enchant because of the buff they did to
Boots of Swiftness

Farming is IMPORTANT you need to farm efficiently with the least amount of casualties as possible especially in the early game. Talon's start is really bad and he needs to farm really passively without trading. Trading with
Rake cost of lot of mana so you need to use it when you position yourself to hit the minions and the enemy together so it doesn't go to waste as much, rather than poking.
Once you get Tiamat and is close to being level 6 you can start to burst people instantly.

Once you get Tiamat and is close to being level 6 you can start to burst people instantly.
You need to play smart in Teamfights don't engage first let your tank do that. Stand from a far and once a squishy steps out of line you can pop your
Shadow Assault and Cutthroat and try to burst down as many people as you can. Make sure you have an escape in handy before you go "balls deep" you're not tanky so you'll probably die without a proper escape like flash or teammate backup.
