Ziggs vs Talon

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Ziggs controls lane pressure with superior poke and waveclear to keep Talon under turret and limit his roam impact.
Focus on denying Talon's scaling by punishing his weak waveclear and forcing him to farm safely under turret.

Trading pattern

Poke from max Q range and zone Talon with E to punish his approach paths.
Save W to knock Talon away if he dashes in with Talon Q or attempts an all-in.
Exploit Talon's cooldown on Talon Q dash to trade aggressively when it's down.

Danger windows

Talon is dangerous when Talon R stealth burst is available; keep W ready to disengage.
Talon Q dash cooldown windows are your safest times to poke or trade.
Avoid extended trades when W is down, as you lose your main peel and turret execute tool.

Early game

Use Q and E to poke Talon early, forcing him to hesitate before engaging or pushing.
Avoid using W carelessly early to preserve it as a disengage tool against Talon's all-ins.
Maintain wave control to prevent Talon from pushing and setting up roams with E.

Power spikes

Ziggs major spikes: Level 6 R for long-range burst and first completed mage poke item for sustained pressure.
Talon major spikes: Level 2 Talon Q plus W pressure and Level 6 Talon R stealth burst; respect these to avoid lethal trades.

Win conditions

Use superior waveclear and poke to keep Talon under turret and deny his roam opportunities.
Convert lane pressure into turret damage using W execute on low turrets.
Punish Talon's limited waveclear by controlling wave states and forcing him to farm defensively.

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