  • I usually use cutthroat to catch up to enemies when my rake is on cooldown its not so much about the silencing

  • Suck early game and can't get kills? Yup, that's me... -.- Guess this guy isn't for me.

  • actually colby just like u said ur w is the veakest spell u have i mean low lv base damage is really bad so thaths why u should max it out first

  • always playing against grasshy

  • should i buy talon or wukong?

  • @MaoamProductions I think both are very very strong but wukong is tanky. But I feel that Talon is more mobile the Wukong.

  • colby please the 1 sec silence on his E is all he need to kill sumone

  • I play talon alot he really depends on items yes but his autoattack isnt horrible. Yesterday i played as him and i was fed extreamly hard i converted eventualy from beserker greaves infinty edge and bloodhtirster to 2 phantoms 2 extra infinty edges and an extra bloodthirster i was doing 1k crits without my Q.

  • Hey Colby, just want to say i'm a big fan bro. Just something about the way you explain makes sense and really clear. Do you still play Talon just like this guide?

  • Why would you go with the frozen mallet cuz the fruital mallet is just like a better version of the frozen

  • @MonkeysGamertag because it slows every hit, so it gives him more damage thanks to his passive

  • should i buy yommuus ghostblade for him? or its not needed?

  • @th3widow333 it depends. he really isn't an auto attack champ, but that wouldn't be a bad choice

  • @drad9598 the arp is really helpful though

  • @drad9598 How is he not an auto attack champ if his auto attacks are increased by 10% if the target is cc'ed. Late game his rake is garbage compared to his ult and silence.

  • @LelouchOfBritannia his silence does no damage bro...also if u build talon right u should never use more then 2 auto attacks....one sheen proc hit then cancle into his q...that should kill any squishy. If your ever hitting more then twice ur a bad talon

  • @darkoni12398 His silence buffs his damage by 15%. With IE and Q, and if it crits, it hits around 500-1000 damage. You obviously don't know much about assassin champs, if you think rushing Trin on anything is a good option.

  • @LelouchOfBritannia Your playing him bad if u jump in with q. u want to cancle an auto attack with q so that u get 2 hits at the same time with sheen buffs. I never said rush trin. Usualy u wanna rush brutaliser for the early cd and armor pen...then get boots a sheen and then a bloodthirster...assumeing the rest of ur team didn't feed then it should be gg by then...it usualy is for me. Also the silence still does no damage...gives a damage buff for that person but it doesnt actually attack.

  • @darkoni12398 You silence, ult, w and then q. Rake is a great laning skill for harassing but later on it's just good for the slow lol. I don't know why sheen is considered a good item, if rake and shadow assault is based off of bonus attack damage, which means sheen is absolutely useless and the fact you say autoattacks are useless on Talon just contradicts everything as well. Even trinity is not a good item 30 attack for like 4k gold when you can just buy a BT or IE and just stomp

  • @LelouchOfBritannia Um the q should be used before teh ult since with its low cooldown u can use it again right after the rake and ult. Also the sheen proc literally doubles the damage of his burst because it increases the 2 auto attacks u will be useing...the one u do after his silence and the one you do with his q since Q is an auto attack....the finished trinity force is only done after buildeing damage for the slow proc and movespeed but once again it should end b4 that.

  • @darkoni12398 The combo for how you play Talon shouldn't matter as long as you silence or slow for your first step. But regarding to trinity, I find it such an expensive item and its damage isn't even that effective in the first place compared to I edge, thirster or even last whisper. Talon's pretty much a better late game pantheon in some sense. Pantheons damage revolves around his skills as well but its not like you wont throw in AA's as well especially with his HSS passive.

  • @LelouchOfBritannia But thats why the sheen is good early game befor he builds too much ad from stacking blood thirsters. It makes teh few auto attacks he does do double damage...and it give him the mana he so desperately needs. You don't build trinity for damage ever.

  • @darkoni12398 Shen doesn't use mana.

  • @OftaPoftaRofta I'm talking about the item sheen for talon...not shen....bro

  • @darkoni12398 Oops. I guess I was pretty tired when I read that comment lol

  • Should i buy talon? Is he viable after his nerf? Havent seen alot of talons lately so just wondering..

  • @ahahahahahahahahaa yes hes still viable, they didnt touch his damage, only his mana costs and ulti cd. he is really good at taking out the enemy ad carrys in fights

  • @ahahahahahahahahaa YES! He is still very viable. And I bought him and was a little sceptical, thinking he'd be yet another assassin but I was surprised, he's a lot of fun to play :)

    Buy him!

  • @ahahahahahahahahaa yeah man i main him off and on i got 2 quads on him and his damage is good. this is a wrong vid. it is how he was when he came out thats why its called the "first impressions" video but yeah get him i highly recommend him

  • @ahahahahahahahahaa I bought talon about 2 weeks ago and he is still quite viable.

  • @ahahahahahahahahaa they just nerfed his mana regen, get him!

  • i went 43/13 with him in a pvp. and it was a 4v5, we were the 4. the game lasted 70 minutes lawl.

  • hahaah this was before the nerf... and u say that he has a sucky early game? :/ i dont think so... even now he is very strong at early-mid-late!

  • talon nerfed. Sucks hard. Waiting for Volibear now.

  • @P4r4k wow you suck at talon then.

  • Talon works fine for me. Just need the right build and early game his harrassment is amazing. Thats jus my view on him i bought him yesterday played a good 4-5 games and i got 17+ kills in each with no more than 4-5 deaths.

  • pantheon has more utility then talon? his got blinks, med range slow and an ult that can be used to escape and kill? lawl..

  • talon seams so weak at all time when i play him all i can do is clean up kills

  • Colby which champion would be better ? Riven or Talon ?

  • why did talon get nerfed to the ground?

  • talon or kog'maw? just got 6300

  • just got 6300ip who should i get talon or graves?

  • @redrags480 talon :D

  • his w is pretty cool

  • dont go tanky dps

  • His color scheme reminds me of DeathSpank

  • I have been playing Talon for a long time and I noticed something about his W and R.

    Sometimes, they deal ridiculous amount of damage, and sometimes not even any damage even when I actually hit them with it.

    Maybe it's the Sheen?

  • @Saicofake maybe it is their armor? I would suggest looking at if they have armor runes/masteries or items because that can make talon's damage drop severely if you go with Colby's runes, that are flat AD, whereas mine are armor pen reds and quints

  • Talon is pretty strong early tbh..

    At lvl4 I usually got Q(1)-W(2)-E(1) and that is in most castes enough to burst down an enemy to 40-50% hp and with ignite it's a easy kill since your enemy should start running when he relizes u got awesome burst and then your W is off cd again.

    Skill W-Q-E, I'm doing great with that skill order.

  • This guy says talon sucks early game, yet thinks riven is good.

    ...lol...

  • @Geniisiio He also said her early game was bad, you should learn to listen to everything that's being said, and not what you want to hear. 

  • @Geniisiio colby is so bad at first impressions on champs

  • I WAS THAT VLAD THAT GOT PWNED AT 2:12

  • @ZealotStar lee sin got powned there,not vlad,which leaves me 2 conclusion that it wasn't u xP

  • DPS morg 0:09 Trolol

  • that soraka was such a ks'er, kill securing support ftw. :D

  • Lol did he actually say that Pantheon > Talon

  • Beef as soraka, lol.

  • Well.. i might be a noob. idk but i have a crit chance page so i start the game with 22% crit chance. I build him dorians blade, berserkers greaves, bloodthirster, phantom dancer, infinity edge, frozen mallet. Ive had a lot of success with this build. i run exhaust flash. Its very damage heavy and you have to farm really well early game but once you get that bloodthirster you have decent survivability and crazy good damage

  • Q,R,E,W congrats with enough AD u just killed them

  • do you know grassy bcs he also plays with orcasm and beef

  • Talon is the AD LeBlanc

  • Wukong or Talon...? can't choose!!!

  • As far as the creep waves thing goes, I don't normally have a problem with one hitting them by the time I'm 13 or so, but usually by then I'm not focusing on creep waves, I'm ganking other lanes. Either way, I liked the video, I will say that Talon's CD's are very annoying, but if you get the Ionian boots and Ghostblade, you're going to be fine with CD Reduction. Also, went 20/1/6 today in a game with the 20 being a continuous streak. I love Talon :) and I don't build into 2 Bloodthirsters :/

  • @SirSquirrely Also, instead of Bloodthirsters, depending on what the other team build is, I usually go Doran's Blade -> Brutalizer -> Boots -> Trinity Force -> Ghostblade -> Atma's -> Black Cleaver/Last Whisper -> Which ever one I didn't take from Black Cleaver/Last Whisper. I've nuked down a lot of people with this build and it seems to work :D I may be doing something logically wrong though, but -shrug- works for me :D

  • After playing now over 20-30 games with Talon. I've decided that his cooldowns are his only downfall. I find that when I spend all my skills in a teamfight, I cannot run back in until they are all ready-to-use again. He does somewhat useless auto-attack damage unless you're very fed, and running back in without all your skills is a guarantee'd death. He's a good champion, but he HAS to have all his skills to be useful... in and out, in and out, thats all he is.

  • god damn , today i have report someone , i hope all people will agree with me ! just two word : TALON AP ?

  • I LOVE TALON,MY FIRST GAME WAS 15-3 with triple kill

  • Here is my talon build I think it's better then rushing brutalizer and going for alot of armor pen but it's just the way I like to build him. Items Doran blade Merc treads Frozen Mallet Brutalizer and last 3 bloodthirsters I. Usually finish all 3 because I get fed but some people might not and last runes and masteries Runes: armor pen reds armor yellows magic resist blues and amor pen quints Masteries: 21/0/9 taking ghost and flash well that's my build enjoy :)

  • so yeah, Talon's melee range is a bit fucked up at the moment, he can't kill teemo shrooms with oracles, if you run up to melee them, they just pop

  • just saying, showing a solo vs mordekaiser , all champion will find this toff ! ahah :P

  • @JiraiyaInPeace i hate Mord soooo much -_____-

  • @jdbabyv3 yeahh me toooooo !!!! with his fucking shield ! dump dump :O

  • @JiraiyaInPeace

    Not true. Talon is incredibly easy to harass mordekaiser. Silence on any AP or skill dependent champion is just ridiculously good. Silence, drop combo, walk away. 2-3 combos and morde is running scared. Simple enough, but against an intelligent player it's never that simple, regardless of champion matchup.

  • @xnoobxinstinct yeah i know , talon combo are really good , i love playing talon :)

  • damn he does major damage! O_O i know m new fa champion! a champion that u use ur skills for damage more than auto attack!!?! MY DREAM CHAMPION

  • @xnoobxinstinct Annie and Brand can do amazing damage with just a catalyst and boots. That's not item dependant. They have great base damages. Obviously most champions need extra damage items but some are FIERCELY dependent on it such as Talon.

  • @colbycheeze I've played a bit of talon on f2p week and I'd have to say that his auto attack isn't as weak, Maybe they patched him or something but when I go my auto can do some pretty nasty damage if you get a little extra atk spd like a pd

  • @colbycheeze yeah thats I agree with colby, with the right runes and just your brutalizer you start to deal good dmg.

  • @xnoobxinstinct Kassadin isn't that item dependent either :D (although I do use AP per level glyphs)

  • @xnoobxinstinct Udyr

  • @xnoobxinstinct if i may, i think kennen is one of the most item independent champions in the game. he doesnt need a single item to do his job in teamfights. STUN THE F*@CK OUT OF EVERYBODY AND PISS EVERYONE OFF.

  • @xnoobxinstinct some supports arent very item dependant

  • THE FUCK? You can't kill the creep waves with Rake? Fully stacked bloodthirster always one hits creep waves for me... meh, oh well, Your Talon is broken, my Talon is OP i guess?

  • Hm. I actually realllly disagree with colby on a lot of Talon complaints. My w usually always takes out the back minions, his base damage is actually really high, and I dont have a lot of problems with him being squishy. I love talon.

  • Talon or Caitlyn who is better?

  • u put ur flash wrong way round

  • Build flat ad runes and you won't have much damage trouble early.....

    Also, w first. Always w first. If you build flat ad you can do a decent amount of damage w/ autos.

  • This is one of those champions that was made for me to bad I only have 4000 ip

  • Thanks for the build! Worked very well for me.

  • Really nice vid , love all ur vids , oh and please make a rumble guide cause rumble is just awesome and my fav champ :)

  • At least your beginning build. Boots first? Uh no... Doran's shield, or standard jungle build. Then build madreds. Wriggles first does mad damage and helps with his farm

  • Sorry Colby but your build is retarded... XD

  • SEe I'm trying to decide between getting a frozen mallet or a trin force.. or both? See the frozen mallet works well with his passive, but the trin force gives him burstiness. Also.. He's stupid. He said you level up your Q first.. No nikka.. W all day

  • AD morgana at 0:09

  • Dude... You always level up w first. He can take decent amounts of damage deals a crap ton and his auto attack isn't bad. Sheen takes care of that. I go games 18/4/10

  • Seems to me to be just as item dependant as Evelynn was back in the days she was viable.

    Now she's not even viable with an amazing early game + good items. I saw a 8/0/7 Evelynn turn into a 8/9/12. That just says something about how Evelynn is atm - garbish.

    And I'm not going to buy this champ. He looks fun, but Katarina and Pantheon are way better, same goes for Lee Sin and Nocturne. So I'm with Colby - all the way.

    Ps: FRUITALIZER

  • just wonder did any of u guys have the 33% problem and knows how to fix it

    this would be really helpful

  • E is nice? E is awesome sir E+Q+SHEEN+high crit chance = o.O

  • i like the fruital mallet more than the frozen one

  • what do you think of going wriggles > bloodthirster > frozen malet? ive had some success with it

    and with wriggles + bloodthirster + max W you should be able to 1 shot the back creep

  • YES!

    A KAT REFERENCE!

    KAT FANS REJOICE!

  • what i need to get far camera like yours ?

    lcd screen? or high video card ?

    plz i need to know really badly

    and BTW u ROOOCK

  • @xMero0 Scroll wheel.

  • @colbycheeze no - xMero0 was right, he needs a new screen. you can't zoom out that much unless you have a decent resolution. My max res is 1280x1024 and I can't zoom out nearly this far.

  • @xMero0 turn of fast terain

  • @xMero0 Ah he means the ui settings, go to interface and make the UI smaller.

  • for my talon i can kill backwave minions :) i jungle talon rush wriggles, brut, rank 1 boots, and bf sword...with this i clear em

  • a frutal mallet xDD? 4:27 really?

  • Lol wat r u talking about I scale pretty quickly and do great early and late game

  • Typical assassin is typical.

  • You think he's balanced??? Well that means riot is going to buff or nerf him. They never seem to have the same balance as everyone else.

  • Does his W crit? Well do any of his abilities Crit for that matter?

  • @PlainOldCrap im pretty sure his Q crits

  • ad caster WTF

  • IMO first impressions are completely useless. No one knows how to play him, and likely no one will for a while, not even taking into consideration patch changes.

  • Does the E silence count towards his passive?

  • colby i have the same build like u :)

  • That Kassadin at 7:35 is stupid he didnt use hit ult to get away. lol

  • those bananas taking all your feed.

  • i wonder how is his jungle

  • godlike soraka :3

  • 6:40 JUNGLE KARTHUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! trolololol

  • ok I have some problems with your opinion, his w is not weak in damage, expecialy early game, it is more damaging then his q if you hit the target with both blades. it also has the slow that increases with rank. overall I would say hes one of the best assassians in the game and it not as bad as you make him out to be.

  • Comment removed

  • i met an unfed talon who did 2,7k damage i was urgot

  • 8:35 sunfire cape on soroka

    xD

  • the last "team fight" was a TOTAL rape for the other team.. My ass hurts just lookin at that...

  • I tried gunblade on him to see if you could get lifesteal/spellvamp off the W and R , not working :(

  • @fdproduc spellvamp should work for his W and R

  • @pr0korora

    No it should not. Are you retarded? Spellvamp only works on abilities that scale on AP. Talon is 100% AD.

  • @TheRyanDurden Spellvamp works on all spells. For example if you get a revolver on ashe, your volley will heal you. So i assume it should on Talons abilities too. Im not sure how it works with auto atack modifiers.

  • @fdproduc

    You realise spellvamp only works on abilities that scale by AP, right? Which, y'know, Talon does not. Ever.

  • @TheRyanDurden Yeah , I know. Just wanted to try out since it wasn't proc'ing with lifesteal. Would've been OP tho , getting half hp back with ult lawlz

  • Never seen a champion with a kit so brokenly overpowered.

  • Talons E is very good, its like amini poppy ult, increases ALL damage ignite, Q W , ult evrything

  • talon is pro hisulti is so good his ulti has such a small cooldown

  • 0:09

    thumbs up for dps morgana

  • I personally prefer getting boots, brutalizer, mercs, sheen, and Trinity. That's my core, and I do a shitload of burst (more than I saw you do in the video). If I'm struggling early game I buy a Doran's Blade or two. It's been working out really well for me so far.

  • My patch downloader is stuck on 33%. Can anyone help me fix that?

  • @xXiTouchYouXx its like that what u want to look at is the top of the bar on the right and see how many mega bytes it is if the number of MB is goin down then your patch is working hope this helped

  • This video is half right and half wrong, which makes it very meh.

  • Played against Talon yeasterday and rushing a Philo/Regrowth Pendant + Seemingly HP Regen Runes, gave him ridicolous lane sustanability.

    Played vs. him as Warwick forexample and unlike Irelia he just wrecked me early. (Though when i started on my FH he's fucked.)

  • I had a Game with

    Merc Boots

    Bloodthirster

    Yoomus

    Black cleaver

    Infinity Edge

    Phantom dancers

    I had 1300 crits and killed the enemys talon with 3 autoattacks.

  • @ElpIsCool cool story bro

  • @ElpIsCool

    Well done, you got fed and killed a squishy character.

  • @TheRyanDurden

    actually i didnt get fed at all, i started like 0/5, but the game went on for like 60 minutes (it was a 3v3!!)

    and so with time i slowly started to get kills and better items and i ended up like 21/11 or so

  • @ElpIsCool

    With an item list like that, you definitely had a good amount of money. So back to my original point.

    Well done, you got fed and killed a squishy character.

  • @TheRyanDurden

    yes i had a good amount of money cuz i had so much time to farm up and sometimes get a kill or 2 but i allways died so i had like 1 kill more than deaths untill the very end of the game

    btw sry for bad english xD

  • sum: talon sucks balls and this champ is ruening the game atm cause everyone is picking him and wasting away a game for their teams... He is absolutely useless in a teamfight and not even one of the better one on one champs... whenever I see talon in my que I leave.. cause I know it's a lost game ofc depending on if the other team also have a talon in their team then it's just a matter of who of them feeds the least... Talon: Troll champ

  • @natri23 trolling

  • Srly godlike soraka? Wtf noobs u playing against when they getting ass kicked by soraka

  • @nephie123 Soraka is a super strong ap carry now you retard.

  • @devons1ck Screening :-D

  • i like playing talon i had to build him tanky because our tank left and we still won 4v5

  • 0:09 I like Morgana build...this is the best

  • W on max lvl kills the creep in 1 hit

  • Yo Colbycheeze do you consider any full game with Talon? And even better with your friends! Yeah it's fun listening you and your friends. 8)

  • 4:23

    After your brutalizer, I would go for a fruitalizer.

    Fruitalizer op.

  • @c00kiesandmilk Fruitalizer is dominion only item

  • @c00kiesandmilk whats a fruitalizer :|

  • When will you do a Dragon Nest Let´s Play again? Miss them xD

  • I love Talon he has a very though early game but i usually am able to farm up in mid game. I dont see how you couldnt get your W to onehit minion waves mine does :/

  • can this champion jungle well? or at all?

  • @lameosore He's jungle is really bad.

  • talon is jus as bad as the last 4 champs they brought out imo.

  • Colby you say hes terrible early game, while actually he destroys early on. I out-mid the hardest champs with talon, and i even have won a couple ranked that way. Btw, merc treads help the most. :3

  • you dont autoattacj? he has a passive for it and does beast damage if build correctly
