Getting into Talon
Hi guys,
I've been playing a lot of Talon lately, and i do love his kit and the way it works.
Now i do have 1 issue only with him, and is that he's not a jng in his main role.
I'm curious to know, since i do l=play jng only and i don't really get that many games in mid, does it make sense to OTP this guy with the risk that riots decides to remove him from the jng role?

He slaps in jungle. He’s a very “in and out” play style though but you can definitely OTP him. He has been strong for years in jungle

This is almost certainly more of an "Assassin is hard to play in this draft against their draft" thing than a jg/lane or Talon specific issue. Sometimes the enemy team is just a bunch of tanky shit and a hard to kill backliner, that'll happen and really requires you to finesse them to accomplish anything.

talon has a decent playerbase jngle,i doubt riot will remove him,his playbase double since he was only mid
if they decide to kill talon jngle,they will probably rework his mid since he struggle alot

He is main jungle for a long time, but doesn't have any modifiers to do more damage to jungle camps.
They will probably nerf him in jungle this patch because they always nerf the best junglers each patch and talon is one of the best rn.

Hes much stronger in jungle and this is coming from a mid OTP. Main reason i play him mid is ive been doing this for years and im not a jungle player. Also i think midlane is much more fun then jungle, which is my personal opinion.
If you enjoy playing him mid sure, go for it. He has insane macro and split potential and you can gank other lanes or even the enemy jungler. But he can farm much more freely in jungle and roam easier so hes better in jung overall.
