I main support and have a decent selection of support champions, but lately I been playing support Talon. His E good for poking and help pushing wave, his E is good at engaging the enemy adc or support, and his ult is good at escaping ganks, doing a lot of damage to the adc and escape, or assassinate the adc or support.

But what I really like about him is the ability to roam and gank other lanes after winning bot lane. Nothing like winning bot lane and then go to mid lane to kill the enemy mid laner. Or seeing the enemy adc or support farming by themselves and go instant kill them.

Any tips or advice as playing support assassin in bot lane? What recommend items as playing support talon? I'm already looking at Frozen Mallet and Omen. What counters would I facing as support talon? Who do I counter as support talon?

As much I like playing traditional supports and babysit your adc for 20 minutes, it's more fun killing the enemy adc and support.

Bro I gotchu I main Talon and I play Talon support all the time heres what you want to do ok? Also take ignite no Exhaust, exhaust is for whack people

  1. Start with long sword, you are going to need it to push the wave and stay on the offensive.
  2. Start W and help your adc push the wave
  3. Dont fight until you are lvl 4, before that you a re very weak, and you should only punish mistake DONT ENGAGE
  4. Lvl 6 if you have adc with a high damage ultimate like Graves, Ezreal, Jinx just jump on their adc and blow them up and let your adc take the kill with their ult
  5. Once you have 6 you can roam

Talon is a support who is all or nothing, to be effective you must always put pressure, use the bushes to scare your opponents since your blink puts alot of pressure. Talon is very similar to blitz in playstyle except Talon is even higher risk higher reward. Your build for support Talon should be

Brutalizer->Tiamat->Mobi Boots->Last Whisper->Youmous->Infinity Edge->Hydra->Blackcleaver

Counters to Talon-(any tanky support) ex... -Leona -Tahm Kench -Nautilus

Talon Counters-(mage supports, squishy supports) -Nami -Lux -Morgana -Karma -Janna

If you don't want to midlane, why not just jungle instead?

Supports need to be able to protect their adc, hence the title of "support." If you're just killing the enemy adc and support... you're just a kill lane, dude.

Why do you want to play him bot? take him mid/jung/top and roam to kill the support. If you aren't in a 5 men premade, your team will lack utility if you take talon support and no-one might be able to protect the high priority champions that actually have gold to deal dmg. My tip is to avoid talon support if your team isn't going to pick high utility mid/top/jung
