If this isn't a joke, I am super excited. As a talon main, I would be super hyped to have another English-speaking high ranking talon player with videos on UA-cam after Yami decided to focus on his schooling
The combo is usually WQR, not qwr. QWR is nice for guaranteed W hits, but once you know your W range you can W and then insta Q, pop Ult mid ranged Q, and get all the damage off in about 1.5 seconds so you can run with the MS boost of your Ult to either chase or run depending on iff they die
BRO, I am so EXTREMELY hyped for this, I love your approach as content creator due to its uniqueness, mixed with your character. Where even while playing a champ I simply could not ever enjoy as Shen, I still enjoyed the content due to your presentation and vibe. BUT NOW THAT YOU'RE PLAYING MY MAIN, IM EXPONENTIALLY HYPED AND INTRIGUED
Hi, I'm Petu. After reaching challenger too many times on Shen, I decided to challenge myself by playing a ninja champ that actually plays like a ninja. Good luck, Petu!
Generally speaking, you'll have the most success rushing Ghostblade into Lucidity, then either Eclipse-> BC or Duskblade-> Seryldas depending on the enemy team comp. Most of the time it's going to be Ghostblade -> Lucidity -> Duskblade -> Serylda's -> into either crit(Essence Reaver + Infinity Edge) or Black Cleaver + Shogun's. You wouldn't really ever buy Maw until the 5th/6th item, and even then you'd only buy it if you're forced to take a lot of AP damage, which usually you can avoid. Instead you should play around your mobility and wait for your team to engage, while you're circling the backline. Usually they have champions that are easy to pick off, such as 90% of ADCs, in which case you don't have to buy Maw for the APs, you can just take down your #1 target then circle the rest until they burn their important CDs(Veigar cage and ult).
i’ve collected just about every talon skins from hextech creates over the years but i never could start playing him it just never clicked with me and none of the talon content creators did either. excited to learn something new from one of my favorite league creators (:
Wp petu😂 I too am a dirty one trick (renekton) and I too have thought talon would be of the simplest wins. Much love brotha. Your content never ceases to entertain and educate
Can't wait to see the rest of the series! And ironically, I started as a talon main and then became a shen main. It's funny that you're now doing the opposite.
Really excited for the series. A thing I see high elo talons do in teamfight is to use ult like duskblade/kha ult, dropping aggro and repositioning instead of immediate burst. Often you can save it until you get focused. And of course not parcouring over everything and losing your escape or chase route. Or when you want to go back to lane fast after a roam. Most of the time you have time enough to go for the roam, but could use the extra speed on the way back, especially with your shen mid experience
Äijä on kyl yks legenda! Aivan loistavaa contenttia jälleen ja saanu omanki innon uuteen shenii heräilee sun ansiosta, isoin kunnia minkä saanu pelis shen midillä oli ku joku viholliset heitti "ff, enemy has xpetu as their shen" selvästi jotain opittu💪 ja jos pelailet koskaan katsojien kanssa ni olis kyl kova hävitä mestarille! 😁
Heyo Petu, I'm new to your channel. If I had arrived primarily because of the Shen game-play I might've been a tad bummed out. However, what drew me in were your insights on the game as a whole eg. control wards=potential and the quality with no name. I think what I'm trying to say is I look forward to this journey and seeing the mastermind dissect and perfect this ninja. Plus Ultra. Ad Astra Abyssosque. To infinity and beyond.
Hey Petu, super excited to see how your inner Ezio journey is gonna go, also looks like you are still experimenting with different builds and I know Midbeast covered a talon mid with phase rush challenger player (don't remember the region) if you want to check out that video, the playstyle looked like something you would enjoy.
When chasing enemies going in a straight line, Q, then use W to secure Talon passive from 2nd W. If you a little more MS, use ULT then QW. If you are chasing and the enemy is maneuvering through JG, throw the first W then Q since 2nd W almost always hit when you Q onto someone since talon’s W is sometimes kinda glitchy in those interactions 🤷♂️ oh also when using WQR combo, make sure to auto (to proc passive)- after using long range Q since sometimes the auto won’t proc if you move away right after using Q
Aside from the obvious things like not perfect mechanics, and not knowing the limits of the champ and its damage, the only thing he is doing wrong is not waiting enough, he is so used to being in the middle of fights from playing when, he now is trying to play talon as an engage champ, which he is not unless you fully commit to the bruiser build no building yomus, etc. Super excited to see you play this champ, gl on the grind.
This is so much fun lmao, as a Talon main it's always fun to see the progression. He's not that tough to play, but he's got some funky optimization for fast one shot combos.
I had to take a little break from Shen and have been grinding out some Sett. Being a Shen main is a mindset and I am sure Petu will accomplish his goals!
Hello Petu, a useful advice i got when you're starting a champ is to always stick to the same runepage. I suggest FIrst strike with ultimate hunter in secondary. Really looking forward to this series and wish u best of luck on your journey !!
Very good video and also kinda weird timing because i just fell in love with playing talon not to long ago and now a UA-camr I used to watch to learn Shen is now making a video about it beware guys the matrix is true :)) but anyways hope you are having fun with him.
As another Talon main, I'm so excited to see this. I'm going to follow it VERY close. I feel the urge to backseat comment so much lol, SO... I will say it because even if Petu doesn't need the advice, other Talon enjoyers might: try lvl'ing up Q if you are in a melee match up and the enemy doesn't seem to be respecting the high damage coming from close range Q, it's absurd. Wins most trades early.
If you buy Black Cleaver, I feel that it is all around a decent item on Talon. The ability haste helps you engage more, but the armor penetration applies to your passive as well which makes your combos do more overall damage. I feel like lethality is essential for the same reason.
I got it. I'll explain it in a way you'll understand Pick a caster minion. That minion is now Shen. YOU are the Blade When you want to jump someone, position yourself in a way that, if "Shen" hits his Q, you would be "Pulled Through" the enemy! Perfect
@xPetu I love this new series idea! You are one Talonted Shen player! I know you've worked with @NEACE before, coaching his Bootcamps. And I'm sure you're aware of his goal of reaching Challenger in Korea. I was thinking, perhaps you and him could duo to Korean Masters. I believe it would make great content. Yes, it's a crutch, duoing in solo que. However, it is Korea but you're learning a new champ and would be on much higher ping, so maybe that would balance out? Could be fun!
talon laning isn't nearly as glorious as you want it to be. You're playing an assassin, you wanna jump on people and tear em a new one level 2-3, but talon really can't force plays with no gold. The talon laning gameplay loop is "w the wave/opponent, if it lands both sides, q in and auto once, then walk away". You are very front loaded until you have your cdr items, so you can't extend plays. I would actually recommend not taking conq for this reason. It will be better for late game, but it baits you into playing your early game incorrectly.
A tip I would give you is to remember that you can wait for cooldowns when you ult Ex. W q auto into ult and waiting for q or w Edit: I should mention that this is if you think u don’t have enough damage to kill or one shot right away But I’m just a gold talon player so :p
Not only do I get to watch the funniest most versatile shen on youtube, but now he also plays talon? (which is lacking youtubers to play since yamikaze left yt) lets goooooooo
As a Talon main I must tell you some stuff. Duskblade isn’t favourable in most matchups. I usually find the best results with Prowler’s, Eclipse and sometimes Goredrinker with the Conqueror setup. As of now, the best keystones for Talon are Electrocute, Phase Rush and Conqueror. Sometimes First Strike is also good, mostly in matches you are confident you’re gonna make the most out of it. Also, Doran’s start isn’t as good as Long Sword with refillable or triple pot in my opinion.
Also for r you want to use it in turn with your auto resets, so you wanna get on them, get at least one w proc, than auto q auto R auto and just one tap
I just specifically searched up "xPetu" to be greeted by a fantastic title. As a former Kass/Talon 2Trick (Kass OTP now) I feel this should be amazing to watch.
i believe in u
I will make you proud
@@xPetu you better
I was just about to suggest to check out Lurkz lol
If this isn't a joke, I am super excited. As a talon main, I would be super hyped to have another English-speaking high ranking talon player with videos on UA-cam after Yami decided to focus on his schooling
it's a pity that Yami disappeared, he's good Talon main
@@Farewelll- true, but I'm definitely glad that he's focused on his life. That Korea trip completely destroyed him.
@@faloughasch9239 Korean trip ? What happened?
I miss yami..
you should watch Lurkz
The combo is usually WQR, not qwr. QWR is nice for guaranteed W hits, but once you know your W range you can W and then insta Q, pop Ult mid ranged Q, and get all the damage off in about 1.5 seconds so you can run with the MS boost of your Ult to either chase or run depending on iff they die
I do that combo cause i cancel my autos like a pig so the q at least fixes that
qwr is also a combo but harded for insta passive proc while delay W slow,its all situational

Fucking beautiful.

That would be Akali tho.
@@Sasatern talon feels pretty ninja too bro
@@FreeConqueror He rather feels like an Assassins Creed assassin imo than an actual Ninja
@@Sasatern 🤓
@@Sasatern well yeah it’s fun playing him though so :)
can't wait for Petu to become better than me at Talon after 6 gamers
the strenght of good fundamentals xd
Dude game one and he already outranked me
Loved the part where you said "It's talon time" and taloned all over Veigar
truly the moment of all time
how can I remove a comment?

What a madman. This will be a transcedental experience.
I did not expect to see so many fellow talon mains among xpetu’s fans. Super excited for this content petu, thank you for blessing us once again
Talon is a very solid choice for this climb! Very fun to watch
Akali escaping over walls… “but I’m talon?” lmfao
As a Shen main i also love Talon, because Shen and Talon has one really cool inspiration: BATMAN!
Isnt talon inspired in mistborn?
i’ve collected just about every talon skins from hextech creates over the years but i never could start playing him it just never clicked with me and none of the talon content creators did either. excited to learn something new from one of my favorite league creators (:
I hope episode 2 comes in! Your learning experience is warming to watch.
oh what a nice series, looking forward to it man gl
As a talon main, it’s greatly entertaining to watch someone learn him. You got this!
Petu is taking tips from Babus’ editors, and I like it. Looking forward to this series!

Oh my...I'm so excited for this. I love your Shen gameplay, but I am a Talon main. Can't wait to see you hit Challenger!
The most forbidden Shen technology.... playing Talon.

you said midbeast so im gonna go out on a limb here and assume its a korean or chinese talon
I missed these new champ vids, happy to see them back, hope you have fun
I was a Talon one trick until he got reworked, and I turned to Shen since. Nice to see my favourite UA-camr play both!

Tbh i love your content and way of editing (basically everything, including your majestic accent) that i would watch you play even yuumi

This is so much fun lmao, as a Talon main it's always fun to see the progression. He's not that tough to play, but he's got some funky optimization for fast one shot combos.
Thanks to petu having a good mental, he went from 0/4 to 1/6 to 10/8 by the end of the game....... sure he was playing talon BUT MY POINT STANDS
It's even harder to get back to the game as an early game/late decaying champ like talon, so my respects too.
Talons pretty weak
Once Petu reaches Challenger cant wait for his personal Talon forbidden tech. Wishing you good luck on your journey
I had to take a little break from Shen and have been grinding out some Sett. Being a Shen main is a mindset and I am sure Petu will accomplish his goals!
Hello Petu, a useful advice i got when you're starting a champ is to always stick to the same runepage. I suggest FIrst strike with ultimate hunter in secondary. Really looking forward to this series and wish u best of luck on your journey !!
Loving the latest streams petu keep it up mate
He was not lying in the last video, he actually started playing Talon what a gigachad.
Very good video and also kinda weird timing because i just fell in love with playing talon not to long ago and now a UA-camr I used to watch to learn Shen is now making a video about it beware guys the matrix is true :)) but anyways hope you are having fun with him.

The talon community deeply misses yami… this helps our hearts ty my friend
Excited to see you on such an underplayed yet overly fun champ like Talon, looking forward to these videos
i’ve been watching your videos for a while now and all i can say is hearing you laughing and having fun made my day better C:
I really love this challenge. IM ROOOTING FOR TALONTED
If you buy Black Cleaver, I feel that it is all around a decent item on Talon. The ability haste helps you engage more, but the armor penetration applies to your passive as well which makes your combos do more overall damage. I feel like lethality is essential for the same reason.
Good luck, Petu, I hope it will be interesting
Love the idea! Keep them Talon videos coming please!
Yesss. Thank you Petu. You are a legend.
Subscribed to keep up with the series, I love these kinds of videos
Finally i see my main from Petu to climb 🥺❤️
There were more exhausts on Petu than the entire Boston marathon.
that last fight was really funny lol. you completely baited their entire team into getting wiped by your team (mainly the kled)
Long have I waited for this.
Shen and Talon is my fav char. yet Im still waiting for a forbidden Warwick toplane
Videos like these are the reason i want youtube to add two like buttons. Best of luck petu
I got it. I'll explain it in a way you'll understand
Pick a caster minion. That minion is now Shen. YOU are the Blade
When you want to jump someone, position yourself in a way that, if "Shen" hits his Q, you would be "Pulled Through" the enemy!
Perfect
Love that you make it a series!
"Goes in, 1 versus 5, refuses to elaborate further" LMAO
I've been watching you casually for quite sometime but man, you are hilarious xPetu xD
Oh my Petu! You really keep us waiting.
Petu content = YES
no other input necessary.
Lets go Petu!
Have fun on your journey Petu ! Im sure you'll learn a lot
@xPetu I love this new series idea! You are one Talonted Shen player!

You're all in at level 2 is usually an easy solo kill
truly flawless content
no lie, I searched for this name years ago and never thought it would be available again

Ex. W q auto into ult and waiting for q or w
Edit: I should mention that this is if you think u don’t have enough damage to kill or one shot right away
But I’m just a gold talon player so :p
Looking forward for this series! Sounds like fun!
I like the shen gameplay but im so hyped for the talon to challenger series!
Petu simply loves playing ninjas
Extra loud petu, I have been BLESSED
Guess it's time to become a Talon main! :D
Love your content, Petu! Stay positive!!
Gl for your new change im already waiting for the next episode :)
Us talon mains have been depleted of a big content creator that plays talon since yami left so this is super cool
you did talon stuff! fantastic content as always
Adlips of xpetu are beyond challenger
Good luck in your journey Sir!
this is going to be a lit series 🔥
My god. We've gone full circle. You inspired me to play more shen. Now you're playing my first main.
Love the videos, hope this lasts
Oh hell yeah! This is going to be fun! :)
How often do you think you will be able to upload on youtube? It's always a treat to see a new video pop up.
Btw melee q is like a self stun, thats why the AA comes out slower and sometimes it doesn’t proc ur passive
I love this new series! Keep it up
talon's roam is my favourite part of playing him, oh and watch out for the no-invis bug on ult!!
I swear Petu is actually a OSRS content creator
good luck petu! just a question: did u level this acc until it reached level 30?
Yesss! More talon gameplay please shensei 🥳

I am super hype for this talented streamer playing league for us!
Edit: one video and already better than my main. Feelsbad man XD
LETS GOOO!!!! For my boy Talon
Honestly I'd love to see Petu play jungle
NEW PETU VID JUST DROPPED FAM, LETS GOOOOOOOO
U have probably seen but if u havent lurkz (challenger euw talon main) has a short and very good video on talon combos.
What made you start this talonted journey, Petu?
I just specifically searched up "xPetu" to be greeted by a fantastic title. As a former Kass/Talon 2Trick (Kass OTP now) I feel this should be amazing to watch.
Also I see im not the only one who has coined the phrase "Talonted"

let's go lads
You can do this! Show them some Noxius Diplomacy!💪
