I'm Probably Going to Get Downvoted For This

As a Talon main, I can almost see what's going to happen to him. You're going to change him into some crazy mobile champion that EVERYONE is going to play/complain about, and he's going to be played in the LCS, and everyone will call him broken/easy/etc. Then you'll nerf him patch after patch because he is too strong, and then he'll be useless.

Well I'm begging you on behalf of myself and fellow Talon mains, don't. Please, for the love of god and all things holy please, please, PLEASE don't. I want to be able to play Talon after the rework without being called a meta slave, or people saying the only reason I did well is because Talon is broken. I want to actually make it through a champion select without him being banned or taken.

Please just remember the people who played the champion PRE rework when you rework the champ; keep them in mind because we all play our mains for a reason, and it would suck if that was taken away.

Thanks.

You see, while I personally understand your complaints and I feel for you (I mained Swain since S2 and the MINOR changes to him with the mage update turned him into a Flavor Of The Broken Month), you make one VITAL mistake.

You assume Riot cares about you.

This is so true. I used to play Fiora A LOT. I was stuck on Platinum cause everyone started countering me, but still, I didn't drop to Gold. And I didn't care, because it felt amazing to be good with a champion that everyone thinks and talks trash about. Besides, it was the first champion I bought, Then, the rework came. It's too easy to use now. She can actually beat every single champion. Now I can't use it because she is always banned or someone else wants to play her. And GODS. I HATE HER NEW LOOK.

Mordekaiser "Maybe they will make Talon based entirely on kit gimmicks. Kappa."

Seriousness though, Talon is pretty much one of those assassins that I find to be very fair and pretty much a healthy version of Zed. I am going to laugh when they give him excessive mobility followed up with one of Zeds "Switcheroo" mechanics like with his shadows or leblanc. Or put in excessive amounts of percent damage.

You guys say Fiora is broken cause she can parry everything for 0,75 seconds What about Flash R annie? What about Malphit R that can be combined with Yasuo and Miss Fortune? While fiora can outplay someone Malphite presses R to win the entire game. Thats all he does. Press R Oh yeah lets not mention 70% damage reduction for 7 seconds on alistar. Entire teamfight can last 5 seconds. He is so underrate ain't real

They fucked up with Malzahar. Good fucking luck to Talon mains

UnderscorBunnies8/7/2016, 6:06:21 PM2 votes

I think it would be cool if they gave Talon, or anyone being reworked, more "assassin-like" elements other than mobility and burst. For example, what if Talon's passive became a bleed, and like Darius', it would stack upon AA's and abilities, though instead of doing more damage, it would refresh the effect and increase the max duration of the effect. The catch would be that the bleed would leave a visual effect on the ground that would not become invisible upon losing vision of the enemy. Doesn't necessarily have to be Talon, just thought it would be a cool thing that felt like it belonged to an assassin, that wasn't burst or mobililty.
