Let's be honest, they're about to destroy Talon
Alright, Riot seems hellbent on reworking the champs that don't need it, and leaving the broken champs that we all know and hate in the game. As a Talon main, it's said to see that somehow, they decided that Talon's AoE is a problem. The only tool he has in the late game. Anyone who play's him knows that as soon as you get into a teamfight, the entire team turns and nukes you as you jump in. Your AoE seems to be the only way to impact the game after 30 minutes, unless the enemy team is just incompetent. I just don't see why they want to rework Talon to this extent. He was so fun to play as, he had good counters to stop him, and was just so rewarding. Now, they're trying to make him even easier to counter, and just as well, ruining an extremely fun champ. They talk about putting in added time for the enemy to react. It's almost like they don't get it. For assassins, 0.5 to 1.5 seconds can be the absolute difference between life or death. If not that, it just makes them a far less capable assassin. I guarantee we're gonna see a giant wave of "Why pick Talon, when you can pick Zed?" come up in the community. Zed can at least get out of almost any situation with utmost ease. What made Talon comparable? His speed. He doesn't have inherent escapes, unless you blow your ult. Sure, you could use your E, but that required actually piggybacking off an enemy. There was risk to using it as an escape. But now... I feel like with the way this game has been going, and how horrid Riot's decisions seem to be getting, he's going to become a Lee Sin. A jungler that builds AD and health, and just becomes a harassing hybrid that doesn't do much. I doubt he'd see the power Lee Sin can have, but... they're going to just be alienating his dedicated fanbase with this. And at least they would NEVER do that with Lee.
that nobody likes that
2.Arguably one of the most boring passives in the game
3.One of the most reliable burst combo's for an AD assassin
's kit looked clunky and awkward to use, but lo and behold, Vlad was pretty damn broken. Champions like talon and vlad will get a part(s) of their kit changed but I highly doubt his core design element of an ad caster with tons of burst will change. His aoe will take a hit and maybe even his stealth but there might still be hope for a broken ass Talon.
