Anyone else believe Talon's E needs some changing along with his passive? The passive changes kinda go without saying, but his E less so.

A one second silence, oh boy, generally as Talon, you're burst will take up that one second, but the target will either explode, in which case their abilities won't make any difference either, or they won't, in which case they can fully combo Talon to death as he retreats, or tries too. A duration buff at the cost of some of the damage amp, maybe instead of 3% per level, 2%.

Talon as a champion's problem comes from blowing people up, faster than anyone else can, not including obscenely fed champions. So Riot destroyed his lane phase, this would improve upon it pretty signifigantly, but a late game nerf to his damage amp on the E, and maybe a decent increase to the mana cost at early levels would discourage constant harass with it, but make it so, he can actually safely harass a smart enemy. The silence was implemented to let him safely go in on his target and retreat while they can't cast spells to retaliate, but making it one second, he starts walking off when the target can cast spells again, meaning the only real use on him is interupting channels, which is really nice against Fiddle, but that's about it, most other silences in the game last for 1.5-2 seconds at least. As it stands, Talon's silence serves no real purpose except to interupt.
