Below are the best pivot compositions that share core units with the optimal Talon build, allowing for a smooth transition without sacrificing too much board strength.

This N.O.V.A./Fateweaver/Bastion composition shares 63% of its units with the best Talon comp, achieving a 54.1% win rate. You'll need to sell Milio, Corki, Riven from your board and replace them with Akali, Maokai, Kindred. Best executed during Stage 4 when you have economy to find the new pieces.

When to Pivot Your Talon TFT Comp

Recognizing when to pivot is just as important as knowing what to pivot to. Scout your lobby early and often - if you see 2 or more players building the same Talon composition, consider transitioning to one of these alternative builds. The best time to pivot is typically during Stage 3-4, before you've fully committed your gold and items to the contested build. Remember that a completed pivot comp with 2-star units will almost always outperform a contested comp stuck at 1-star. Use these Talon pivot strategies to adapt to your lobby and secure consistent top 4 finishes in TFT Set 17.
