Guide to Synergizing Talon and Vladimir

Tips for Playing as Talon with Vladimir

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.

Transfusion instantly deals damage to the enemy before healing Vladimir, making it one of the best last hitting tools in the game.

Cast Hemoplague where it will afflict the most units.

Sanguine Pool pops incoming missiles, so it can be used to dodge disables.

Is Talon better when played alongside Vladimir?

There is no perfect synergy for Talon that will 100% of the time be his #1 teammate. However, Vladimir is a very typical ally for Talon. By locking into the same side as Talon, he raises their win rate by 0.4% to 49.4%. This proves that there is not really a strong bond between Talon and Vladimir that allows them to perform stronger together than alone.

Vladimir has a lower difficulty than Talon. That means you don't need to be very careful when lining up Vladimir comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a lower level of skill to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, Talon players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Combined, these two can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by aligning Talon and Vladimir together, you may not be providing your other allies a great deal of crowd control. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that helps cover this gap in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Vladimir teammate, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
