Playing as Talon

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Three spells, then an auto

    Apply three Blade's End (passive) stacks by hitting with your spells, then strike with an auto: the target starts bleeding and takes heavy damage over time.

  2. Use Noxian Diplomacy up close

    Cast Noxian Diplomacy (Q) in melee range when you can: instead of the leap, it lands a critical strike. If it kills, it heals you and comes back faster.

  3. Bring your blades back on your target

    During Shadow Assault (R), break invisibility with an auto or Noxian Diplomacy (Q): the blades then converge on your target instead of coming back to you.

  4. Push, then roam over the walls

    Push your wave, then roam by vaulting walls with Assassin's Path (E): the spell comes back fast, but you can only cross the same wall again after a long delay.

Playing against Elise

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Step up after a missed Cocoon

    Step up when her Cocoon (E) misses you: it's her only stun, on a 12 to 10 second cooldown.

  2. Don't stay low near her bite

    Don't stay in melee range at low health: in spider form, Venomous Bite (Q) lunges at you and deals damage based on your missing health.

  3. Ward the way into your lane

    Ward the path between her jungle and your lane: when she ganks, Cocoon (E) stuns you from range as soon as it hits.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive her first minutes, play for time: Elise is strongest early and loses impact once everyone has their items.
