Long ago, I paid money for Talon...

I just lost honor(my team won even if I fed 0/8/2 ) because Talon can no longer silence. I want my money back and I'm uninstalling. Going back to Dota 2.

If you getting dunked makes your leave League of Legends then you should definitely never come back. Talon is still fine without a silence (Not as strong as i think he should be, but i play zed..) Things change.. adapt or don't play.

Talon has 1 huge glaring weakness I feel needs to be addressed. Mana Cost on his rake is ridiculous early. Considering he is a squishy melee with no sustain (he does have good burst but will still lose trades with a large amount of champs) His laning phase is garbage and he can't even use rake for last hits or harass without going oom...

He is so easy to shut down in mid lane, and as long as bot lane stays warded up and mid pings mia he shouldn't get fed enough to do anything.

Since you play Zed you understand how Zed's laning phase is super strong usually and his assassinating is not hindered because of it. He isn't the greatest in a teamfight outside of blowing a carry up (the assassins job). But he does telegraph when he is going to be doing so. Talon lacks a laning phase, but his assassinating can be literally instant without warning (3 items built and you can 100-0 a squishy in less than half a second from a yomuu's speed stealth) His teamfight is just as bad as Zed's though, if not worse. Talon can blow up the carry and then will probably die, whereas Zed can at least attempt to escape with his shadows.

I am scared of a league where Talon is not just viable, but a strong pick. At least give him lower mana cost on his level 1 rake though riot. You can even lower its scaling for level 1 and make level 2 a powerspike for it but also the higher mana cost. He needs that little bit of range available for last hitting against anyone who has strong zoning in mid >.>

Thought out and on point. I don't even own talon, but after playing him you pretty much hit the nail on the head.
