I usually play jungle but i am starting to get a bit bored of the role but i heard pantheon was fun but falls late game and nocturne is fun and doesn't fall off but i also thought about varus since he seems interesting but i heard he has a terrible late game for a carry and finally i though about talon since he seems to be a fun mid laner.

Talon is definitely fun but he's a little on the tough side to pick up. Panth isn't inthe best spot, but he's lots of fun early. Noc also isn't in the greatest spot, he still works (More than panth) I personally dont like him tho :
Lastly, Varus- he's a bit of a weirdo as in ppl play him mid or adc and you usually dont build a fully conventional adc build. He's really hard to pick up I find, his kit is simple but it all has to be pieced to together to get something out of him... Not my favourite champ either...

Here's my order from best to least.

Talon, Panth, Noc, Varus

I like nocturne best. Can destroy squishies easily in fights and his ult is really a whole lot more helpful in teamfights then people think. To be able to make there team blind for a certain amount of distance can help your team get into a much better position. Hes even better in rank 5s where people can communicate and use his ult better

In my opinion talon is the funnest champ of those four although you better be good at csing because its extremely hard to cs with talon until you get tiamat.

The way that most pros/high level Varus players play him is for him to Spam Q relying on the team's tanks and supports to CC enemies in place for Varus's safety. You kind of just poke people with max Q damage and go in when you think you can burst them down with all of his other abilities.

Well anything works with Sated Devourer, you could try getting nocturne. You can set up really sneaky gank with his ultimate, as in hide your team mates from the enemy's vision for them to gank a lane in top lane whilst you gank bot lane. That requires co-ordination though. I've personally had that happen to me a couple of times with the ganker hiding in the bushes, didn't see them because they snuck in whilst Nocturne's ultimate was clouding my vision.

I find that Pantheon is a strong pick against really mobile champions like Yasuo and Kalista for his targetted stun. The stun itself won't keep them in place look enough, typically but it provides a brief time for your team mates to follow up with their stuns and snares to keep Kalista in place for much longer - long enough to delete them.

Pantheon is really good at taking down low health carries. Pantheon is a great counter to Nasus, Wukong and Rengar, a few champions who use basic attacks to channel their high damaging abilities through. Pantheon's passive lets him block complete 100% damage from their basic attacks, or ability modified basic attacks.

Nocturne-Has alot of midgame power, shitty early game and awful late game

Panth-Alot of early-mid game power falls of late, later than Nocturne though

Varus-Early game is whack, mid game is extremely potent, late game is mediocore, once tanks start to stack armor

Talon- Pretty bad early game, insane midgame, insane late game

I main Talon and he pretty much never falls off untill like 50 minutes into the game once every squishy has bought a GA or Zhoynas to counter you.
