Key takeaways

  • Current data slightly favors Talon, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Talon wins 59.0% of 39 games (95% range 43.4–72.9%).
  • Both champions' overall Jungle win rates predict 52.0% for Talon; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
  • Talon usually wins the lane: 701 gold ahead of Elise at 15 minutes on average (37 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
  • Talon players pick Edge of Night far more often against Elise: 29.5% of their other Jungle games, 53.8% here.
How we calculate this

Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.

A game only counts when Talon and Elise played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.

The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.

Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.

"What changes" compares Talon's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).

Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Talon Build vs Elise

Usual Talon build (Jungle)

67.6% win rate · 105 games

Against Elise

Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 8 of 33 Talon games against Elise carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Talon's standard build instead.

  • Talon usually completes Gustwalker Hatchling first, at 0.2 min (median of 27 games).
  • Elise usually completes Scorchclaw Pup first, at 0.2 min (median of 26 games).
  • Skill priority: W > Q > E — the same as usual.

Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
