Talon vs Lee Sin Matchup Summary

The Talon vs Lee Sin matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 19 recent matches analyzed, Lee Sin wins with a 52.6% win rate compared to Talon's 47.4%, giving Lee Sin a 5.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Lee Sin controls the early laning stage, but Talon outscales as the game goes longer.
