Has anyone ever put down the awesomeness that is a full glass cannon Talon to maybe try and built him semi tanky AD? I mean, techincally speaking, he has the scalings for it. His initial upfront burst is roughly 1025, and having a 5.0 scaling means that his bonus scalings will be equal to 5x the amount of his bonus AD. having, say, 150-180 bonus AD, will put his total burst somewhere around 2.2k, and you are able to devote the rest of your build to pure defense. It'd be a late game oriented build, for sure, because it'd be expensive, but I still think it'd work.

TL;DR, Talon has the 2nd best total scalings for an assassin in the game, 1st being pantheon, with 7.0. Talon benefits from 100% AD, though. I'll have to experiment with him more, but it seems like it would work. At least at low level play.
