Guide to Synergizing Talon and Sylas

Tips for Playing as Talon with Sylas

Shadow Assault is a powerful escape tool, but can also be offensively used to assault a group.

You can use Assassin's Path to get behind the enemy and set up for Noxian Diplomacy's melee attack.

Remember to pick your target before the fight. Focusing all of Talon's abilities on one target can be very rewarding, but splitting them up between many may leave you helpless.

Advice to Understand How Sylas Will Play

Clever use of enemy ultimates can open up new possibilities to approach teamfights.

Wait for you or your enemy to reach low health before using Kingslayer for maximum effect.

Space out your ability usage to get maximum effect from Petricite Burst.

Is Talon better when played alongside Sylas?

There is no one best companion for Talon that will no matter what be his top teammate. Yet, Sylas is a very typical companion for Talon. By playing on the same team as Talon, he decreases their win rate by -0.9% to 48.1%.

Sylas has a lower difficulty than Talon. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Sylas comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Playing alongside, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by pairing Talon and Sylas together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates enough support. Plan to include other champs on your team that offsets this relative gap in their capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Sylas teammate, you should focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
