Can someone explain how Talon takes skill?

Jump over a wall, then q+w+r. Literally the same combo every time. You could argue that his 'w' can be dodged, but good luck with that when he's literally on top of you after he q's to you, and the cone is ENORMOUS so it's stupidly easy to hit even when he's not on top of you. It's honestly ridiculous how stupidly easy Riot makes assassins to play.

You get my point right? Describing a champion's kit doesn't really help anything.

You're not being completely honest about Yasuo in your post, and I don't appreciate it. The fact that people just blindly hate him and upvote you speaks volumes about the bias in this community. And this post wasn't even about Yasuo in the first place. Why are you dragging him into this? Anyways, he actually needs to land his q THREE TIMES IN A ROW before he's even able to ult you, so now it's not as straightforward as QER. And you said yourself he can ONLY do it if there are minions nearby. Talon can just 'q' onto you whenever the hell he wants, and he doesn't have any special requirements in order to use his ult. Also you failed to mention you can COMPLETEY deny Yasuo from being able to use his ult by just cc'ing him when the knockup happens.

Except yasuo nowadays misses like 5 qs in 2 1v1s but still wins because he auto attacks you to death. I've seen it to often>.>

If you're stupid enough to let him get that close, you deserve to get auto'd to death. His dash is the most telegraphed ability in this game. You know exactly when he can do it and when he can't do it.

Wai wai wait wtf lol-! First off this isn't specifically me whose dealt with this in lane. But second off.. if you're and immobile mage or a melee fighter and he dashes through the wave to you then YOU ARE BAD FOR LETTING HIM GET NEAR YOU? listen to that- that's freakin bs man. Okay? Yes you know he can dash but okay he also has a tornado to dodge. He can he several times. If you get close enough to farm at all you'll be in range. Especially if you're melee. I play a lot of kat and it's annoying when i dodge three q's and land a good combo and dash about but still lose it because he auto attacked a few times. I've won a lot of yasuo lanes and lost some so i don't care too much but I've seen it happen to others who go on to be like 1/5.. "oh don't let rammus or hecarim get to you otherwise you deserve the death.' They proceed to run faster then you can react and you die. Hm.. I'm bad for that..? No just because he can get to you doesnt make you bad. I'm just annoyed he isn't more q reliant and can auto attack you just as many times as q for the same effect.

he doesn't take skill, that's the catch. neither did old talon but he was more fun, so whatever here we are, in 2019, assassin rework was iunno how long ago, the champion allegedly takes Talont to play

Talon's difficulty isn't about executing his combo. It's about getting an early lead mid and then knowing how to roam properly while not letting the opposing mid laner spiral out of control.

talon is an ungankable, no skill mid laner that is able to run away from even the fastest champions in the game because walls do not fucking exist for talon

how does any champ in league take skill all they do is press qwer and they either kill someone or they don't. honestly i think if you pick talon you would be challenger instead of silver

how is this now a yasuo thread? yasuo overkills every champion if he lands his moves. what's the point? unplayable little shit %%%% can't be hit because he's electrosliding through all the pissant minions that just never fucking attack him and he's got fucking 10000 hours on just fucking yasuo so he knows every fucking angle of attack on his E. fuck off who brought up yasuo? this is talon thread
