Talon vs Riven Counter pick

Riven has no resource bar, so Valor, Ki Burst and every Broken Wings cast recharge purely on cooldown, while Talon has to manage mana for Rake and Noxian Diplomacy. Across 142 games on patch 16.13.1, that drags him to a 42.3% win rate, and the game rates the matchup Hard. Both champions deal physical damage, both have 125 range, and both score high on execution, with Riven at 8 and Talon at 7.

Der hun har fordelen i denne duellen:

• Valor kaster henne fremover og gir henne et skjold mot innkommende skade, slik at hun tar imot starten av burststøtet hans i stedet for halen.
• Ki Burst stunner på nærhold og kan avbryte angrepet som ville utløst tre stabler av Blade’s End.
• Blade of the Exile øker angrepsskaden og angrepsrekkevidden hennes før Wind Slash lukker vinduet, og hans 2 511 liv på nivå 18 overlever ikke den fasen komfortabelt.

Talon’s case rests on the starting stats: 68 base attack damage to her 64, 658 health to her 630, and 36 magic resistance that does little against a fully physical enemy. Her 33 base armour against his 30 is close enough to call even at level one. The third Broken Wings cast knocks back every nearby enemy, so it can end a chase just as easily as it starts one. Most games come down to whether he can force a fight outside her cooldown windows, and Assassin’s Path over terrain is what gives him that option. See the Riven championside.
