The developers of mobile MOBA experience League of Legends: Wild Rift shared the latest gameplay champion overview dedicated to Talon. Talon, also known as The Blade’s Shadow, is an assassin that carved out his dangerous reputation on the streets of Noxus. Adopted by the notorious Du Couteau family, he now plies his deadly trade at the empire’s command, assassinating enemy leaders, captains, and heroes… as well as any Noxian foolish enough to earn the scorn of their masters.
“Can you hear the whetstone? Talon is sharpening those daggers for February 23rd UTC!”
Talon’s abilities lean heavily on his identity of a merciless killer able to strike and escape without being seen:
- Blade’s End (Passive) – Talon’s spells Wound champions and large monsters, stacking up to 3 times. When he attacks a champion with 3 stacks of Wound, they bleed for heavy damage over time. If enemy champion dies while bleeding, Talon gains bonus Move Speed.
- Noxian Diplomacy (Q) – Stab enemy within melee range, dealing critical damage. If the enemy is out of reach, dash toward them and deal damage instead. Talon restores some health and reduces cooldown if this ability kills his target.
- Rake (W) – Sends out a volley of daggers that damage and slow enemies.
- Assassin’s Path (E) – Allows Talon to vault over terrain. The ability itself has a low cooldown, but it puts the used terrain under its own longer CD.
- Shadow Assault (Ultimate) – Disperse a ring of blades and become Invisible while also gaining additional Move Speed. Breaking Invisibility causes the blades to converge on Talon’s location.
