Talon vs Vex

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Talon is a medium pressure assassin who wants to push the wave and roam to leverage his high mobility.
Manage lane pressure to prevent Vex from safely using her passive fear to dominate trades and control the lane.

Trading pattern

Use W's return damage and passive bleed to trade, then threaten Q follow-up for burst.
Punish Vex when she fails to land her passive fear by engaging short trades.
Avoid trading when Vex's passive fear is up or Vex has her shield (W) available to block damage.

Danger windows

Respect Vex's passive fear timing; avoid trading when it is available.
Be cautious when Vex has R available for engage or reset, as she can burst and reposition.
Talon is vulnerable when forced to stay visible and cannot use E for repositioning or escape.

Early game

Focus on hitting level 2 to unlock Q and W for early poke and pressure.
Avoid extended trades before level 6 since Vex's passive fear and high early agency can punish you.
Use wave pushes to create roam opportunities with E, denying Vex calm scaling.

Power spikes

Talon's major spikes: level 2 (Q+W), level 6 (R), and first lethality item.
Respect Vex's major spikes: level 6 (R) and first completed AP burst item.

Win conditions

Win lane by pushing waves and using E to roam and create pressure on other lanes.
Capitalize on Vex missing her passive fear to land burst combos.
Use level 6 R stealth and burst to all-in when Vex's shield or fear is down.

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