Talon's biggest counter? Especially now that thunderlords is so easy for her to proc which increases her level 2 kill potential even further? Discuss. I forgot to add vlad in there.. I feel like he might be an even more one sided match.

Leblanc can counter a lot of people now, just because of the raw damage she can do at all points in a game. Leblanc will have her way in the early game, but if you're good with Talon, buy hexdrinker, kite her skills, you should be able to beat her late game.

Im aware of the hexdrinker lol, i was catching up... but they had a garen... and we all know how garen handles assassins... lol its just her level 2 kill potential and the splash damage on her distortion to proc the mark is ridiculous, not to mention you cant really retaliate lol

What I'd do is buy Corrupting Potion and Hexdrinker early as Talon to keep up sustain. I'd even contemplate using Flash Barrier instead of Flash Ignite to keep her from dishing out too much damage on me. Then scarf the lane down her throat. Her early wave clear isn't that great and neither is her farming unless she's a pro farmer or is willing to spend mana to keep her cs up to par.

It's difficult do to sigil of malice having a range of 700 while talon's rake only has 600 , so she gets free poke. Also because her distortion has the same range i find it difficult early to cs with just last hits. I guess mainly I was wondering is it mostly just leblanc? or is it me? haha. Thanks for the advice though friend, have my upvote :D

No problem. But keep in mind that Leblanc is one of those champions that requires split second reactions to play against her. It's not impossible to lane against a Leblanc, but keep in mind that you're an assassin. You may not be able to kill Leblanc, but you sure can kill and gank other lanes as well to get ahead of her.

That's true, minus top lane when it's a garen or similar lol. She has no delay on using her 2nd use of distortion though, so unless you predict she's gonna use it in the first place, plus it blinks her twice.. it's near impossible to counter her q/w harass if she out ranges you lol.
