Fighter basically does mean you're a good duelist. Mid-late game, Talon IS a good duelist. Give him Hydra+BT, and any other items you typically use for burst damage, Talon will win most 1v1's. The extra lifesteal from Q is really strong, the constant bleed damage they should be taking helps make up for any regen effects they have going, and using the silence at the right time should throw off their combo--putting you in a pretty good position. You have damage buffs from your passive and E, so you beat anyone without them. You nuke fast enough to invalidate most squishy champion's damage (with the exception of Tryndamere for obvious reasons, but that's any champion vs Tryndamere).

Why would Talon lose a 1v1? That doesn't make much sense, he has some extra mobility, CC of his own to use, and handles CC about as well as any other fighter.
