Aren't they technically step brother and step sister bc of General Du Couteau is like the "father" of both? Besides, I don't think Talon has room for love as of now.
"Honor" and pride, Talon was certain he had killed her, he didn't see why he failed and for him if she was able to "see" that coming and survive that she deserved to live, Katarina was marked to die because of her failure wich happend because of her pride, I think Talon understood her for a moment. Even in his old lore his life is nothing but the blade, I think they are making him more emotional about that, given the fact that he named his knife "Katarina", he wants to remind himself of that, of his pride, he wants to be nothing more than the blade, a perfect weapon. At least that's how I see his story
I agree with this, the narrative clearly shows that Talon saw himself in Katarina. Naming his blade can only mean two things; first is he's now obsessed with Katarina (which is quite low, this might only mean to remind him of his principle and failure), second is he somehow relate to Katarina to some degree which could potentially develop into something deeper hence why he named his blade Katarina and he doesn't realize it yet. I would call now that Garen has an official rival for Katarina.
talon basicly having ocd can be really interesting to be honest. as someone who has been waiting for talon lore i actually kinda like this. he wants perfection. he wants his perfect edge. i really hope they tie into it . dont let ma man go without lore for another 6 years
Sono chino sadame TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALON!
@@ChaddyFantome most painful feeling as a talon main, when you do your combo and the enemy is extremely low and you walk away only yo realize you didn't proc your bleed
Honestly I actually would like if Talon having ocd were to become canon. Cus no matter how much of a perfect weapon he wants yo become he is still a human and sometimes humans are born with mental disorders. It would be really cool seeing him kind of having an identity crisis, because one one side he wants to be this edgy, emotionless weapon, but on the other hand no matter how hard he tries he just can't help but give in to his obsession of everything going exactly how he thinks it should because he wants to be the "best". But because he wants to kill every target perfectly this will keep making him fail missions so he won't be the best. THIS IS THE BEST PARADOX EVER!
As a Talon one trick, I always loved the character and wished riot payed more attention to him. But I’ll admit that I was confused too after reading the story. After watching this vid, i realized that this is exactly what’s going through my mind. Like bruh come on my favorite edgy character is just a orphan with OCD, bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :( Edit: Whatever still thx for the vid necrit! The last talon vid was years ago really appreciate you shining light on this new story!
@Papier Weiss imo he clearly displayed pride to some degree, like when General Du Couteau defeated him. He only wished to serve only the General's family out of his respect and pride. The "one shot only tick" only happened because he saw himself in Katarina, if not for the obvious expressions from Katarina he could have just slice her up to finish the mission. This shows that Talon had always adhere to his own principles and this is clearly supported by him getting stiff as he watch Katarina fight the soldiers. Katarina's reckless movements and the soldiers not seeing those opening pretty much agitated him.
@@daleryanaldover6545 just an orphan would be underestimating talon wouldn't it? he's the second best assassin in the universe right now and that is if katarina's father is still alive

"Each choice exposes her more, cracking her armor wider, betraying her lineage. My upper lip constricts, desperate to twitch, but I am stone. Succumbing to such weakness would only carry me further from the Edge." If not the last phrase I honestly thought It had some erotic meaning.
Sounds to me like talon has some unrequited feelings even he doesn’t understand yet. Maybe, since his Life up to this point has been so heavily regimented, he’s become so emotionally stunted he doesn’t know how to process them and this is turned into a kind of obsession with her? I don’t know, throwing it out there.
9:32 well I mean as a talon main I can say its more satisfying when you kill them with one strike p sure every talon main can agree on this it gives that feeling of power and dominance over your target
My anime instincts say that Talon felt like he didn't deserve the kill because during his combat with her, Katarina was matching Talon in strengths but her wounds kept her at a disadvantage. So maybe he grew respect for Kat, since not only she was able to dodge his first lethal strike but also she continued to fight with such ferocity to almost kill him.
Katarina failed her mission due to pride and arrogance. He was sent to kill her, waited for the perfect moment to cut her down in a single strike and he fails because of his pride and arrogance. He assumed he only needed that one moment, not to mention he made three critical mistakes before she made one, even if she didnt capitalize on it or even see them. He didn't feel he deserved to win and she earned his respect like her father had before her. I assume that's why he let them both walk away, they both failed their mission for the same reason.
Still waiting for riot to give Anivia something after 10 years.... Hopefully when volibears rework gets here I'll get something since they did like any solo queue player does and dodged when ornn was released.
Hi, i'm french and i must say that i love how u pronounce fench-based names like the Du Couteau family and the house Laurent. It's actually a quite accurate pronounciation and i like your accent when u're saying it =) i've discovered your channel only recently and i'm binge watching it so i'll be waiting for more content =)
i agree, its strange and part of his character is not being prideful, not having a name, staying in the shadows honor is not something talon should care about. Yet he thought he didnt deserve the kill, very out of character he is betraying du cotou which is even more out of character
Yeah, when you think of it at first, sparing Katarina after failing the first strike doesn't sound rational but so does him not claiming his freedom when his master went missing. I think he has a certain sense of honour and respect for people that don't fall to him and I also think he sees the child in Katarina that he was when he survived through the streets, hence why not only he spared her but named the knife after her
9:30 he didnt kill her because he felt like he lost that fight - hes the one that got cocky, he was sure one hit would be enough - and katarina fought better than him, as did du couteau. He felt like he didnt deserve to kill her. At least thats what i got out of this.
The reason he didnt kill Kat is a similar reason why he joined General Du Corteau. By all means Kat should have been dead, but there she was. And he let the opening pass by him for a similar reason he says " _after my failed strike, i would not try a second_ " in that paragraph which to me indicates that while it was an opening, she's proven that the perfect plan isnt perfect. Katarina is dangerous af no matter what mental state she is in (though since this is told from his perspective, im sure that wasnt her actual mental state) If he f*cked up again, he'd be dead.
I mean, I understand why he didnt do it, as you said, she had three openings which she didnt utilize due to emotion. In Talons eyes, she fought better then him, way better, or generally had more potential, so it didnt feel right for him to kill her as he felt he was outmatched
I think the reason talon didn’t kill her because he had assumed victory before she was down, making it feel that he had already failed and would be dishonorable to kill her after
Necrit said in the video he didn't quite understand why Talon didn't kill Katarina after he failed his first strike, I believe that once Talon blew his stealth with a botched strike there was no hope for him to successfully kill her, she could just escape and they both knew that, so they just decided to go their own ways.
The situation explained in the video was literally one of the old login screens, I think it was the one presenting the new season after Talon and Katarina's reworks.
I do think all lore about cassio, katarina and talon will get way better when general du cuteau gets its own lore developed, maybe they are not sure what direction to take for now
@Necrit As to why talon didn't killed Katarina the first time was far more complicated than just having an OCD. You see they are both assassins, and after failing with his first strike their blades clashed and on this moment Talon got a sense of what is happening with Katarina. It is those small gestures conveyed in combat that Talon understood that him and Katarina are no different from each other. The author tried to simplify these through the phrase, "He didn't feel like he deserve the kill in that moment". On a narrative writing this was the perfect phrase but not all people would see what meaning lies beyond those words.
An orphan boy adopted by a family with everything. I'm sure he doesn't want to kill Katarina because he grew up with her while serving General Du Couteau. It would carry a burden too for him. At first all he thought was just his duty then he realizes that it's his sister about to be killed by his hand, not just some other target again.
Talon have a big pride for being the best (eg. He only bows down to those who are better than him). In order to sate his pride he wants to kill katarina (his somewhat polar opposite) in one swoop
I think the one shot one kill thing is based on his orders from the general. Katerina is his daughter, he sent Talon to take her out (mercy kill) tells Talon if you can’t do it in one shot, let her live but you have failed. Katerina would then know that she is being hunted for what she had done. The general saves face. Katerina lives with a rep of skill because she defeated or dodged a shot from Talon. This plays into her fighting style using her rep ( letting the see her) to put fear in her appoints before killing them. However, this style goes against their teachings so it bothers Talon that she has adopted it or embraced it so much. That’s just my thoughts, love your channel. Keep up the good work.
I feel like talon just have met the perfect soldier he knew it was possible; like him, but female, so felt in love, but nothing suggest that he felt that since all he has ever felt has been "silence", kind of metaphor. That alone explains why the stories doesnt tell anything about why he didnt kill her while he could, just because something stoped him, he doesnt understands what or how so "it doesnt makes sense", he named the blade after katarina, to remember who's the responsable for weird sensation that'd stop him to do what he knows best, against all odds, avoiding the job to get finished
Katarina and Talon are basically opposites as far as how they fight and feel as assasins, he probably didn't feel worthy of the kill because of how utterly wrong he was about katarina being weak due to all the things he thought were weaknesses, her emotion, pride, and boasting in battle by showing herself and making exploitable mistakes being the strengths that saved her from his perfectly planned out assasination. If he was unable to strike down someone he thought of as far beneath him it'd only make sense he'd see that as a failure big enough to not even care whether she died or not.
Im betting the next character is kat's father. Look at the teaser picture of the two. The sword stuck on the tree looks like kararinas knife spell thingys in her recent story.
I mean, he did say she had three opennings which may give hints on his mind that SHE can be better than him in the future since the only one who has beaten him is her father alone > w>
After reading the comments i realize that Riot may hit talon with the batman treatment:He always need someone to keep him sharp,etc,thats why,whe hasnt killed her.

And he let the opening pass by him for a similar reason he says " _after my failed strike, i would not try a second_ " in that paragraph which to me indicates that while it was an opening, she's proven that the perfect plan isnt perfect. Katarina is dangerous af no matter what mental state she is in (though since this is told from his perspective, im sure that wasnt her actual mental state) If he f*cked up again, he'd be dead.

That alone explains why the stories doesnt tell anything about why he didnt kill her while he could, just because something stoped him, he doesnt understands what or how so "it doesnt makes sense", he named the blade after katarina, to remember who's the responsable for weird sensation that'd stop him to do what he knows best, against all odds, avoiding the job to get finished
Talon is secretly jhins brother, that's why style matteers
Katarina used hourglass against talon there. He just too tired of waiting through it so make peace.
Bit by bit your talon pronounciation turns into quick stallone. Makes me laugh to think talon to have a face of Sylvester Stallone
I belive that the moment he failed, he realised that even talented people can fail, so, does she really deserve to die ?
Katarina and Talon are basically opposites as far as how they fight and feel as assasins, he probably didn't feel worthy of the kill because of how utterly wrong he was about katarina being weak due to all the things he thought were weaknesses, her emotion, pride, and boasting in battle by showing herself and making exploitable mistakes being the strengths that saved her from his perfectly planned out assasination. If he was unable to strike down someone he thought of as far beneath him it'd only make sense he'd see that as a failure big enough to not even care whether she died or not.
The preseason 2017 login screen is the scene in the forest. The trees and colours are the same
that one had rengar and leblanc in it tho unless im thinking of something else
Why do I feel like I've watched this before
Im betting the next character is kat's father. Look at the teaser picture of the two. The sword stuck on the tree looks like kararinas knife spell thingys in her recent story.
I mean, he did say she had three opennings which may give hints on his mind that SHE can be better than him in the future since the only one who has beaten him is her father alone > w>
After reading the comments i realize that Riot may hit talon with the batman treatment:He always need someone to keep him sharp,etc,thats why,whe hasnt killed her.
If things don't work out, he ults and kills the ADC
I imagine Talon as Yamikaze true face lol
The parts about Kata are better than the ones about Talon himself
This should be named
" talon's bizzard adventure "
