Talon vs Hwei

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Talon is a medium lane pressure assassin who wants to push and roam against Hwei's high poke control.
Deny Hwei passive farming by forcing wave pressure and punishing his defensive E spell choice.

Trading pattern

Land W and threaten Q follow-up to force Hwei into defensive spells or miss poke.
Punish Hwei if he picks the wrong E spell by all-inning quickly before he can react.
Respect Hwei's E CC and avoid engaging when it is available or on cooldown.

Danger windows

Talon is vulnerable to Hwei's E CC and R burst combo, especially post level 6.
Avoid extended trades when Hwei's defensive E spell is up and ready.
Be cautious when forced to stay visible without terrain access for E mobility.

Early game

Use level 2 Q plus W to pressure Hwei early before he unlocks full spellbook options at 3.
Avoid extended trades when Hwei has chosen a defensive E spell with CC.
Push wave to create roam windows and avoid staying visible against Hwei's long-range poke.

Power spikes

Talon's major spikes are level 2 Q+W pressure, level 6 R burst and stealth, and first lethality item.
Respect Hwei's level 3 unlock of all spellbooks and level 6 R burst potential.
Punish Hwei's reliance on correct E spell choice before level 6.

Win conditions

Push wave to enable roaming with E and create pressure on other lanes.
Use R stealth and burst to punish Hwei's cooldowns and defensive spell mistakes.
Deny Hwei safe farming by forcing trades when his E CC is down or misused.

Tip: For Talon vs Hwei, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
