Kha'Zix vs Talon

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Kha'Zix's isolation damage and fog control to punish Talon when he is separated from his team in jungle or river fights.
Manage tempo by avoiding grouped skirmishes where Talon's burst and mobility reduce your dueling advantage.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize pathing that targets isolated camps and jungle entrances to maximize (Q) isolation damage.
Contest dragon and Rift Herald only after denying Talon vision and picking off separated targets.
Track Talon's early pathing to counter-gank his first river or lane pressure attempts effectively.

Danger windows

Beware Talon's level 2 power spike when he can trade aggressively with (Q) and (W).
Avoid isolated river fights when (R) stealth and burst are available.
Be cautious contesting objectives if Talon has lane priority and can collapse quickly with terrain mobility (E).

Early game

Start with a clear focused on reaching level 6 quickly to unlock (R) stealth for safer picks.
Fight for first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to prevent Talon's collapse.
Avoid early invades unless Talon is isolated and vision is controlled to prevent counter-invades.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) stealth and evolved abilities to create picks before objectives and force Talon to group.
After first damage item, increase invade and counter-jungle pressure when Talon lacks lane collapse support.
Respect Talon's level 2 (Q)+(W) combo and level 6 (R) burst window to avoid lethal trades or all-ins.

Win conditions

Use fog and vision denial to isolate Talon or his teammates for lethal (Q) burst and snowball.
Convert jungle tempo into objective control by forcing Talon to respond to picks rather than contesting freely.
Exploit Talon's weaker grouped dueling by forcing skirmishes where you can isolate and burst key targets.
