How to Play with Talon as Neeko in LoL

Overall, Neeko sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Talon. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Talon helps Neeko perform poorer in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Neeko is an ally to Talon, she gets a barely noticable drop in her complete damage output. This change could indicate that Talon does not provide protection for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Neeko is played alongside Talon on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Talon.

Is Neeko better when played alongside Talon?

There is no top companion for Neeko that will always be her best ally. Yet, overall, Talon is a very typical ally for Neeko. By locking into the same side as Neeko, he has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 49.4%. This proves that there is a weak bond between Neeko and Talon that results in them performing at the same level together than without each other.

Talon has a greater difficulty than Neeko. That means Neeko players must be careful when lining up Talon teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Working cooperatively, Neeko players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

In contrast, by pairing Neeko and Talon together, you will not be granting your other teammates enough engage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that neutralizes this disparity in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of your Talon ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
