Am I the only person who feels talon's damage is too high

I can't be the only one. He is literally gibbing full armor malphites mid game. You can't build against him. You only can hope you can land a stun on him from 700+ range before he hops in and halfs your entire team's hp while gibbing whoever he jumped on.

AD assassins have the freedom of buying LW-which is possibly one of the most strongest items in the game with a cleaver. And of course most talons get yomuus.

I don't have an issue with his damage per se, he's an assassin. I do think however that a 700 range instant dash is a goddamn lot to go with. It means that combined with his ult he basically has free access to your back row in every game, and that you can't stop him before he's started murdering your carries. You can stop him WHILE he's doing his job, but that's a pretty low amount of time to react with. Chances are if you looked at that Talon's build he had Youmu's, Last Whisper, Blade of the Ruined King and Black Cleaver too. What's armor in the face of all that?

Agreed. He is pretty much guaranteed to delete your carry and there isn't a lot you can do to stop him. At that point it's 4v5 and you are missing your main damage source, so good luck winning that fight.

I have been saying this forever. You have to be a tank with 3k+ health and 200 armor to not get 100-0 by him if he is fed. And of course he gets fed, because his burst at level 3 is very good and hits insane at 6.

yes there is no way to stop him from getting fed.

He may actually snowball harder than any champion in the game. If he gets 1 kill up, you have lost lane.

Problem is, his primary movement modifier is his mobi boots.

That Talon must have been absolutely horrid.

Talon is one of the only assassins that actually has to plan to assassinate people. He all ins and doesn't have a free bail out attatched to his abilities, meaning he can fuck up.
