Talon jungle counters, builds, and strategy guide for League of Legends.

Best Counters:

• Gwen
• Rek'Sai

Vision Control and Early Game

• Ward walls and jungle entrances to track Talon's movements
• Be cautious of early invades - Talon excels at 1v1 duels
• Capitalize on his weak objective control (Dragon/Rift Herald) early game
• Coordinate with laners to secure objectives before he can respond

Team Fight Strategy

• Ward flanks to prevent surprise assassinations
• Focus Talon immediately when he engages
• Stay grouped - avoid walking alone in unwarded areas
• Keep track of his Ultimate (R) cooldown

Power Spike Awareness

• First blood or early kills can lead to snowballing
• Major power spikes:
  • First item completion
  • Level 6 (Ultimate ability)
  • Early game kills/assists

Counter Play Tips

• Avoid isolated fights unless you have a clear advantage
• Build defensive items early if falling behind
• Track his wall-jumping patterns with E ability
• Coordinate with team for counter-ganks
• Protect vulnerable carries during team fights

Remember that Talon's effectiveness decreases in the late game if he hasn't snowballed. Focus on surviving his early pressure and scaling into the late game.
