What's the problem?

Ahri ate a crit she could have easily avoided, ate Talon's passive, and got his Flash, but still didn't respect his kill potential and should have backed out entirely, not stayed. That was her fault and only her fault. Hecarim was squishy and tried to 1v1 an assassin and ate his entire combo and passive while being behind the Talon. 100% Hecarim's fault.

Ekko and Kha'Zix probably didn't have any armor built while Talon had at least Ghostblade, if not Dirk or a second completed Lethality item. Ekko ate entire combo + Ignite because he literally just stood in Talon's face. Kha'Zix chased after an assassin he had no vision of into a clearly obvious bait. Both cases were their fault and only their fault.

What's not okay?

This is actually what happens when you don't take armor runes against AD assassins.

>Ranged champion eating a melee Q from Talon She deserved to die That shouldn't ever happen at level 2

In the second clip Ekko just didn't ult I don't know what you want to say about that

Kha was brought to half hp by raptors He then ate a full rotation from a champion 2 levels up on him Pretty sure most champions with respectable burst in that scenario would kill him

I'm not saying Talon is balanced I'm saying these clips are garbage

Do you people not understand Talon deleted them before they had a fucking chance to react...

Ekko had quite some time to react in that clip where he didn't ult A sack of potatoes would've had better reaction times

Kha was half health and face checked into the bush where Talon is guaranteed to get the first hit in(again, while being 2 levels up which is worth around 1000g worth of base stats)

Hey aren't you that top yasuo main I keep hearing about, or am I thinking of someone else

Prob not me

JoxcabFeb 26, 20173 votes

Your name checks out.

GlowshtickFeb 26, 20171 votes

I'm so happy someone else noticed that.

GlowshtickFeb 26, 20173 votes

To be fair, Ahri shouldn't have done that, and should have respected the flash range while below half health, and hecarim shouldn't have tried to kill talon solo while a level lower than him.

But, yeah talon's damage is pretty stupid right now.

Ark SorcererFeb 26, 20171 votes

For sure.

DunkinNoobsFeb 26, 20173 votes

Hold on. I thought we all agreed Talon sucks ass. And don't give me some bullshit about lethality buffs; that's a lvl 2 Talon.

I'm so confused.

A DimwitFeb 26, 20173 votes

If Riot balanced the game towards what people said on the boards, the game would be fucked.

~~tbh game already fucked~~

Ark SorcererFeb 26, 20171 votes

You can safely say that player was cheating. No way Any champion can deal that much damage at level 2, even if every single ruin is AD and Lethality, no way could any champion do that.

A DimwitFeb 26, 201716 votes

lol what

Ark SorcererFeb 26, 20171 votes

Your first video. I had typed that when you had the one video Talon v Ahri both at lv 2. That burst is too strong for any champion at that young a level.

GlowshtickFeb 26, 20176 votes

Have you faught renekton before?

Ark SorcererFeb 26, 20171 votes

Fought* .... Darn you have a point. .... I would argue that his burst isn't as strong as this Talon but you have a point.

Hong Kong RevoltFeb 26, 20177 votes

Most of the reworked assassins spike incredibly hard at level 2. Leblanc can do that. Kat can do that. Fizz can do that. I mean, you aren't going to fight Darius at level 1, why would you fight Talon at level 2?

Ark SorcererFeb 26, 20171 votes

Exactly. I usually have not had to deal with any of these all ins at lv 2. Then again, I can trade better than this Ahri did.
