@Thief of Potato

Did you do the calculations with Zed having three shurikans hitting the enemy during his ult or with two? I found out that the shurikan damage does not depreciate past 50%, so an extra one really amps his burst if you include it (and potentially lose your escape). For all I know, you may have, I lost all my saved calculations when my last HDD crashed (-_-) so I can't easily check the numbers. Just wondering, since I want to try and keep a good idea of the kill potentials between different assassins.

@Kenshigo

I hope you realize that whether you killed him or vice versa has nothing to do with how much damage he could do, right? There's a bit of a rule about this: with assassins, whoever "gets the jump on the other" has a huge advantage towards killing the other. I guarantee you with identical items you would have killed him first had you been the one catching him out, and understand very well how you might not close the damage gap in time as Talon since you were the one caught out. Generally speaking, Talon dishes out his combo faster than Kha, so I'm not saying you couldn't have turned the tables on him, just that he would have an advantage by getting the first hit(s).
