Talon's E currently amps his damage by 0% for two seconds against a single target, regardless of rank. This bugfix will buff his single target burst by 15% when E is at max rank.
Has it not been working 100% of the time or something like 0.01 chance of not amplifying damage?

It is a domino effect that is very heavy.
Not really. Reducing his base damage or ratios reduces his base damage or ratios. Yes, it causes his damage output to fall, but doing only one type of damage doesn't suddenly amplify the effects of his damage loss. Most champions in the game only do one type of damage, or are only ever built to do one type of damage. Only a handful actually do significant damage in multiple types.

He's been at the top of the charts for winrate in season 3 for a while.

It wasn't just Black Cleaver. Talon is ridiculous with the new items and buffs to ad casters. He's been comfortably many points above 50% winrate: http://www.lolking.net/charts?region...e&range=weekly

talon is one of my favorite champs and i have to say with the new armor penetration effects he really feels OP now, did u count how many enemy champs u could burst down in an instant sometimes its more than 1 in just a single team fight. :O
thats too op, ppl say darius needs nerf but he still can only hit ulti 1 champion ppl -_- , talon is heavy aoe burst assasin.
i was looking forward for a nerf.

Ezreal is at 52%, he also has a 52% pick rate
Taric has a 55% win rate
Rumble has a 55% win rate
MF has a 54% win rate
Eve has a 54% win rate
Amumu has a 54% win rate
TF has a 54% win rate

Where are their nerfs?

So what you're saying is Darius' ult should do 1 damage, right?

You'd be surprised how much a simple fixed ability can do/
You would be also be suprised how much a .5 nerf to his total scaling was, even more so because he only scales off of one type of damage.

Talon is good until late game. He's always been notorious for not being able to carry long games cause of his mechanics.

He gets stunned/Silenced and dies like all melee carries/assassins do late game. That don't have resets built into their kit.
