Talon vs Viktor Matchup Summary

The Talon vs Viktor matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 31 recent matches analyzed, Talon wins with a 61.3% win rate compared to Viktor's 38.7%, giving Talon a 22.6 percentage point advantage. Talon dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights.
