I like how Riot has forgotten about Talon
Seriously.
> One of the lessons the new season's taught us: attack-damage assassin's ain't so hot right now. This is mostly due to much of their itemization being skewed to synergize with the crit-based damage output of marksmen, meaning that old standbys (like Last Whisper) are less effective as a core-item for murderbugs and ninjas alike
Buffs Kha'Zix and Zed Forgets about talon.. Even though Talon needed it more than them?
Still haven't changed the name cutthroat.
One skin in forever and only because of SSW.
is looked at like once every 15 patches... IF that.
still using mana and mana pots are gone (pro/con) eh..
with the the addition of thunderlord gets bullied by other champs insanely harder now. ex: Ahri - should be an easy match up till she just autos you when you last hit or w's or balls.. its a lot of damage test it. Leblanc - Don't even get me started. Since silence removal its been hell.
Seems like thunderlord is better on every other ad assassin than it is on Talon.
animations seems a little off so does his hitbox.
E - Cutthroat.. people will clearly be in the circle yet even though their at the edge SOMETIMES wont E to enemy.
Bleed feels meh.
Build paths seem meh now. much weaker early on unless you get a few early kills.
> Talon's really hurting riot. Yet I watch and read every patch for a change but none ever comes. Not trying to be on y'all case but damn. Been Talon main since season 2. Look for yourselves how many times you've touched him in comparison to other champions since his release.
I mean at least let me E to wards or something. (Katarina)
Maybe I'm just reading into it too much but seems like Riot has something against Talon. Like yall are constantly douching on Talon and Talon players. Yes I could play another champion but why have to change my preferred choice? You guys balance everyone else out so people can still play the champions they like and still have impact..
Talon still has impact just significantly less. Significant enough for me to spend i dunno how long writing this
TL;DR Riot, you've forgotten about Talon. You buff other AD assassins but forget the one who needed it most. Losing faith in waiting to see him in patch notes ever again. Yes his stats are almost identical to Zeds probably a tad better. Though at 18 Zed has a minuscule amount more atk dmg
Maybe his kit needs a change? just doesn't seem to preform as well sometimes.
