Electrocute is great for Talon since it will allow him to further amplify his assassination capabilities.

Win Conditions
- After killing your opponent, try to snowball your lead into other lanes. Avoid the river and jump through your own jungle to make roams more surprising.
- When team fighting, look to jump over a nearby wall and assassinate the backline. Talon is an Assassin and cannot run directly at the enemy- so attack from the sides.
- Try to kill the enemy level 2 or 3 and continue padding the Talon first blood stats.
Weak Against
- Pantheon: Pantheon's early burst damage and point-and-click stun can make it difficult for Talon to engage and trade effectively.
- Diana: Diana's shield and burst damage can mitigate Talon's all-ins and outtrades, potentially turning the tide in her favor during laning.
- Ryze: Ryze's ranged poke and crowd control can make it challenging for Talon to approach and trade, as well as escape ganks with Ryze's Rune Prison.

Strong Against
- Galio: Talon's burst damage and all-in potential can be effective against Galio's tankiness and melee-oriented engage, allowing Talon to pressure and potentially take control of the lane.
- Kassadin: Talon's early game dominance can give him an advantage over Kassadin, who is relatively weak in the early stages of the game and may struggle to deal with Talon's aggressive playstyle.
- Sylas: Talon's burst damage and mobility can make it difficult for Sylas to sustain in the lane and trade effectively, potentially giving Talon an upper hand during laning.

Game Stategy
- Early Game: In early matchups, focus on farming and poking with your W (Rake). Use your passive to deal bonus damage after hitting an ability-enhanced auto-attack. Talon's power spikes come at levels 2 and 6. At level 2, you unlock your full combo with Q and W. At level 6, your all-in potential greatly increases with your ultimate.
- Mid Game: Avoid sidelane split-pushing with Talon. Instead, prioritize staying with your team to assassinate priority targets during team fights. Talon can dive effectively with his high burst damage. Ensure you have enough damage to eliminate the target quickly and consider using your ultimate to escape safely.
- Late Game: Continue to assassinate priority targets. Use your mobility to enter fights from unexpected angles. Talon's burst is crucial in late-game teamfights. In late game, prioritize Baron and Elder Dragon. Talon can quickly eliminate enemies contesting these objectives. Use your ultimate for escape if needed.
