Imo Talon needs some work, because Kayn feels like a better version of Him..

Hello, I wanna share a thought to the community about Talon.

So Riot is working on Leblanc's an Rengar's reworks, because they didn't meet the expectations of the both the players and the Riot.

I want to share my feeling about Talon, because he was in the same roster update as these two fellas, which have got awkwardly some issues too.

  • I feel and think that the (re)work, from the devs, on Talon hasn't been done well.

Riot has corrected some issues in his kit, like the instant burst damage, the AOE burst damage and has given him a (stronger) identity.. As The Roamer of League.

But now, in comparison with this new character "Kayn", Talon doesn't feel for me interesting to play.. Or even to exist. To me, Kayn feels like a better Version of him. He roams super fast (he takes less time to reach a target), and his damage output is to me as fast as old Talon's, thus faster than the current one.

SO, I don't understand.

Why have Riot slowed Talon's damage output and gave him ability to be identified as THE roamer in League when they afterwards release a champion that does everything he does but better.. It's like contradictory in my mind, from this point of view.

Are you willing to discuss with about this, to help me mind enlighten on it?

Cheers

Are other Talon players feeling the same way? Maybe Kayn's a better fit for you than Talon was and you're just feeling some loyalty/investment being lost? Hopefully this thread will answer those questions. As a low-Elo mostly squish support player (Soraka's my go-to), I worry more about Talons than Kayns: Kayn poses a threat, Talon is a threat.

(Case in point, I just unlocked my Talon shard after considering it a few times, while my Kayn shard is collecting dust and will likely become BE for another champion later. But also, I don't know jungle, so that's part of the choice I made of which to unlock first.)
