Galio fights Talon easily. It just means Galio has to get a Chain Vest faster than usual. After all, Galio is a tanky caster. Talon simply does not counter tanky champions. If Galio uses W on himself before you use Cutthroat on him (which he totally can, it's fairly obvious when Talon will move to you to cast it), Talon has no chance of winning that trade. Even after it, his W will still negate damage from Q's bleed and heal him back up a nice bit and being at melee range makes it really wasy for Galio to hit Q and W. Galio's Q can be cast twice in lane for every one time Talon can cast Cutthroat, and Talon is unable to AFK farm with his W without running oom in a minute, requiring to use melee autoattacks which make it incredibly easy for Galio to Q him.

And if all else fails, Galio can just get some mana regeneration items to farm and push the lane. He outranges Talon's abilities majorly so Talon can't stop him from doing that. Talon can't gank the other lanes then, and an even lane is fine by Galio.
