A one second silence to prevent ANY escape? Surprise surprise its a lot harder to nail his whole combi inside of that silence, and while his ult does grant him invis and bonus ms, the enemy team can still retaliate.

I do agree, his burst is rather rediculous, but taking the silence  out would kill Talon, period. They need to keep it, but add more drawbacks to the rest of his kit. He doesn't have an escape, meaning he will often die killing the enemy carry if he charges in during a teamfight.

I think they need to nerf Talon, yes, but not in the way you want to go about it, possible longer cast times on everything, maybe make his Q a target ability with cast time instead of an auto attack. I personally have an issue where I never get my Q off since I combo improperly, this would allow it to go off, but slow his overall burst, giving more time for counter play. I don't think making his E like Ezreal's would work very well, it would allow counterplay, but then Talon would be a largely hit-or-miss type champion, he fails his E? He's probably dead, and his target lives. Lands his E? Target is probably dead. Talon might be as well anyways, because of, you know, lack of escape. He was fine earlier this season when he was outclasses by other mid laners, but I do think his kit needs more addressing overall. And definitely a different passive is in order.
