How to Play with Talon as Illaoi in LoL

The Illaoi Talon synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Talon, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Illaoi sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Talon. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Talon helps Illaoi perform worse in ranked League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Illaoi is an ally to Talon, she gets a barely noticable drop in her full damage output. This may indicate that Talon does not help cover for her to dish out more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Illaoi is played alongside Talon on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Talon.

Moreover, when Illaoi plays with Talon on the same side, she on average takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Receiving more damage could mean that Talon does a poor job of protecting Illaoi during team fights.

Talon has a greater difficulty than Illaoi. That means you must be cautious when enlisting Talon comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to play well with you.

Conversely, by bringing Illaoi and Talon together, you probably will not be granting your other allies a great deal of magic damage. Make sure to pick other champions on your team that nullifies this relative hole in this pairing's kit.
