Talon, sloppy nerf

Red Frost··4 votes·1,014 views

Please, you could of reduced the duration of his silence, make it half a second, but please don't give him something he already has, his W's slow is more then enough for talon. This feels like a sloppy nerf do to this, and it also removes a lot from talon, he should be at least able to stop channeling spells, like kass's "Q". I did mention in the the original forums, but I also read that riot is planning to make this the original forums now.

The silence is not coming back. If Talon needs it there will be compensation.

in order for talon to function without his silence his early game dmg would need to skyrocket

getting lvl3 and going all in was core talon strat because he was able to scare the enemy and get back to farming without getting huurt, now ppl will just hit you back and win every trade with you

The reason that was a good strategy on Talon was because no one could fight back. You have to play him differently now, a bit more like Darius in that you need to poke a fair bit before the initial all in.

yeah but talons poke is not as potent as poke of a typical apc early

Maybe he should not be in the mid lane then. Give things time to adapt, and if they either cannot adapt or can't adapt well enough changes will come.

i hope at least they rework him cause his kit right now requires a silence. its just to easy to dodge his damage now that makes him useless. zed/fizz/akali/leblanc/kassadin have ways to close in the distance but talon has nothing. he only has one gap closer. thats why it was suppose to be a strong one. now its really weak and all the other assassins are pretty much better than talon. Riot please make some kind of rework for him so that he doesnt need a silence. like having his E be with charges so he can E twice (without silence of course). just do something so that he can stick to enemies like zed can. he already is a mana user which is a big disantvantage compared to zed. give him some love cause you never actually buffed him. from the moment he was released he was actually bugged and his E didnt amplify his damage at all. it took a whole year to fix it. noone gave him any attention.

Yeah. They did need to get rid of the second long silence, but a channel interrupt + something to help him survive would be nice
