One of the most important things in the game is farming. It's an easy and safe way to get items and carry the game. You can see more about wave management in the bottom of the guide.^^

Other things that might help you climb:
Focus on your own mistakes not your teams mistakes
Don't use the chat, it will only distract you
If you die a lot then buy more pink wards to prevent ganks and look at the minimap more often to see if you can find the enemy jungler. If you see the enemy jungler top or bot, you can play aggressive without the risk of getting ganked.
Also roaming is pretty good on Talon because of his mobility - before you roam it might be a good idea to push in your wave so you dont lose minions to the turret^^

Hello guys this is my Talon guide. I have been playing since season 2 and have been Challenger the last 4 seasons. I got 2 accounts in Challenger at the moment and I'm trying to get my 3. smurf to Challenger. Right now I focus only on toplane where I play Tryndamere most of the time. You can join my stream if you want, would love that^^ https://www.twitch.tv/kurtdenstore21 . Talon is played a lot in high elo so you should come watch my stream and maybe you are lucky to catch me against a Challenger Talon - Talon is pretty strong atm so you should try him^^

There are other builds/runes to Talon that works so you need to figure out what works best for you. You could use my build every game but I would recommend you to form your own builds that works with ur playstyle.

This is my Challenger accounts

This is my greatest winstreak of all time in ranked

This is 2 of my smurfs

Have a great day!

SUMMONER SPELLS - FLASH: Talon should have flash every game, because I believe that is his best summoner spell, it helps secure kills and survive ganks. IGNITE: Ignite gives you the ability to secure kills because it deals true damage and it makes the enemies heal less.

Long Sword: This is the most used first item as Talon. I would recommend you to pick this item everygame. However if you feel like other items works better for you feel free to change it.

Core Items - Duskblade of Draktharr: Duskblade of Draktharr gives you 55 Attack Damage, 10% Cooldown Reduction and +21 Lethality.

Lord Dominik's Regards: The next item you should get is Dominik's Regards this item gives you 45 Attack Damage. That's pretty good alone. However we get this item for it's UNIQUE Passive. Because in lategame there might be some enemies that got armor and the UNIQUE Passive helps you deal with these targets. UNIQUE Passive: Last Whisper: +35% total armor penetration. Ravenous Hydra: This item gives 80 Attack Damage, 100% Base Health Regeneration and 12% Life Steal. It also comes with a Passive, UNIQUE Passive and a UNIQUE Active.

I would recommend you to study this video because wave management/Minion Control is one of the most important skills in the game. If you master this you will climb!

''The three deadliest blademasters in all of Valoran are bound to the house of Du Couteau: my father, myself, and Talon. Challenge us, if you dare.''

~ Katarina Du Couteau
Talon is the knife in the darkness, a merciless killer able to strike without warning and escape before any alarm is raised. He carved out a dangerous reputation on the brutal streets of Noxus, where he was forced to fight, kill, and steal to survive. 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.
