Why Talon Should Be Reverted

Background Okay. I've been playing since season 7, so I might not be the best judge on whether or not old Talon is better since I never got the chance to experience him, but as a current Talon player I think I have room to voice my opinion on this subject.

Explanation Okay. So hear me out. I think that Talon should just be changed back to how he was before the assassin update. His current state is that he is able to 100-0 somebody, then just run right away after killing them. Being able to one shot isn't necessarily healthy for the role, especially when they have the ability to leave the fight almost immediately.

The new Talon is designed to roam, which is a good aspect that his new kit has, but the new kit gives him too much room to maneuver around Summoner's Rift. His old kit revolved around taking out a primary target, and doing damage to the enemy team. The thing about his old kit, however, is that he was more vulnerable because he couldn't just hop over a wall after getting 1-2 kills. It took more effort to position and prepare yourself before engaging in a fight with your team. People have been complaining about damage recently and I don't think that Talon is an exception to these complaints.

He used to be the AD, caster, melee, mid that everyone (for the most part) loved and I would love to see him back in the game!

Sidenotes *bonus points if you find the reference in this post (cringe)

*Keep his VGU the same though

*Also while you're at it riot, can you give him a few more voice interactions? I'd love to see him say a bit more than "I'm going to stab you" [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

I would love it if they just partially reverted his Q so hit acted as an auto-reset as opposed to a point and click
