Guide to Synergizing Talon and Yorick

Tips for Playing as Talon with Yorick

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.

Remember to pick your target before the fight. Focusing all of Talon's abilities on one target can be very rewarding, but splitting them up between many may leave you helpless.

Advice to Understand How Yorick Will Play

You do not need to cast Awakening to regain the ability to cast Last Rites.

You can send the Maiden down a lane alone, be careful though, as she represents a large portion of your combat power.

The Maiden will attempt to assist you in a fight, so choose your targets well.
