Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and poke potential, as Talon struggles to engage without his R.
- Post-6 the matchup shifts heavily in Talon's favor since his R allows him to gap close through your E and burst you before you can react.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using Q for poke when Talon goes for CS, then immediately backing away to avoid his W return damage.
- Never trade in melee range as his passive proc will outdamage your full combo.
Wave Control
- You should maintain a slow push early to keep minions between you and Talon, preventing easy W poke and E engages.
- After level 6, keep the wave closer to your tower to limit his all-in angles and roam potential.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use your E aggressively for poke as it's your only escape tool against his R engage.
- Walking too far forward without vision of enemy jungler will result in death since Talon excels at setting up ganks with his E mobility.
