@Katey, thoughts on Talon's current state skins-wise

Desiderium··3 votes·435 views

A few months ago I asked a Rioter if Team skins count against a champion's skin release schedule, and if we would have to wait longer for a skin even though that particular skin is unplanned.

Here is the response I got. I copy and pasted it here.

[{quoted}](name=Riot Galetta,realm=NA,application-id=A8FQeEA8,discussion-id=K3IXq3bX,comment-id=0000,timestamp=2015-10-13T18:40:26.480+0000)

Yo Tomb of Insomnia,

No, we don't plan ahead when it comes to Worlds skins. There isn't really a way for us to plan since it's the winners choice on what skin is made, and it's not always the champ they played in the final game.

So, no the Worlds skins don't interrupt the planned release of a champion skin in production.

The thread they posted in: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/vLjJPBJe-talon-hasnt-received-a-skin-since-january-of-2012

I'm not asking for release dates or anything I'm more looking for your own opinion and thoughts on the subject. Because, if Riot Galetta's right, then Talon has tehcnically not received a skin since January of 2012. January of 2012. I'd ask you in client but you know I can't for reasons.

Riot hates Talon the way they hate Vlad. Look at how much they played around with Kass after removing his silence, and how much they helped Leblanc after removing her silence, and look at how they just took Talon's silence without hesitation and then forgot about him.

they replaced talons silence with a slow so that you can proc his passive dmg on Q then continue with the 10% dmg increase by using his blade throw. i think a always garanteed 10% dmg increase is a pretty good trade off for a 1 second silence that seems out of plae on him to begin with.

it was in reply to the guy above who made the comment they removed his silence and forgot about him. they didnt forget about talon they gave him many compensation buffs for the removal of his silence. hence the statement.

His E slow sucks.

Why are we talking about his silence? This isn't a balance thread this is a skins thread
