I agree, E needs to be up for use more often. He does need a rebalance to be able to at least closely do the same single target damage early game as he used to. They want to decrease his AOE damage, right? Why not drop Shadow Assault a LITTLE more, then return his 1.2 AD bleed Ratio on Noxian Diplomacy? This change with a small cooldown reduction on Cutthroat would restore his single-target damage and nerf his Multi-target damage. The only other viable way to rebalance him, that I can think of, is for them to increase his Cutthroat amplification to scale to 20% at last rank. Then his Cutthroat would at least become worth Talon being heavily nerfed repeatedly for ~12 secconds. (Again, the problem with Talon is that Riot balanced his SINGLE-target damage to be the same as it was only around level 16-ish and only for 3 seconds, but even at 18... the 10 seconds of downtime where he doesn't have cuttroat up.... He's missing upper triple-digits in damage...)

3 Seconds of Talon as we know him/10 seconds of sombody that I used to know...
