Hello everyone my names Dan Ign names (Scrumm, Killercruiser, Scrumm "on EUW server") i'm 22 years old and have started playing LoL since spring of season 3. i'm a talon main who's played only talon to get into challenger and I've found talon to be one of the easiest champs to carry games with and move up the rank. since I first started playing LoL it took only one season to go from Silver 3 to diamond 1. I've created building guides on how i build talon & what combos to use: guide, i've also made a talon jungle guide: Talon Jungle

on top of the building guides i stream and have a youtube channel here: Stream, Youtube

if you have any questions about talon or what not you can post here, or on my stream (i stream everyday) and i'll try my best to answer every single question.

Haha I always see your games on the homescreen and watch them sometimes. Im trying to do that same thing right now. Would you be able to look at some of my recording and give me tips? Also why do you go boots of swiftness over Mobis? I feel really slow with Swiftness...

Talon is indeed very powerful. I personally main him also. He's just one of those assassins that you cant do anything about if he's fed. However it's not very smart to pick him into a heavy cc team. COUGH LEO AND SEJ, COUGH

Why don't other teams ban Talon from you then? What do you play as an alt?

You have it listed that Twisted Fate is an easy matchup.

Was wondering (I have never faced a TF as Talon -- however I believe since Talon is gaining popularity here, I may need to; have faced many Talons as TF), how do you deal with a TF who shows little fear when you try to burst him?

I generally don't lose to Talon as TF, but I'm obviously nowhere near Challenger. When Talon jumps, I just walk into my minion wave while getting Gold Card ready, then proceed to unload my burst and kite him down with autos (and the Q) since in early game, he generally can't burst me in one combo whereas I can deal around the same damage, and follow up on his melee range unable to close the gap to get me anymore where I can continue to hit him. Can have 20 health after his burst, but I still attack him hard, punishing his cooldowns and range if I think I can force him out of lane too or get a kill (after warding ofc).

As Talon, do you just hyper farm until you get a Tiamat and try to burst+intimidate them, or do you have some other way of defeating him?
