Talon vs Zoe Matchup Summary
The Talon vs Zoe matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 14 recent matches analyzed, Talon wins with a 57.1% win rate compared to Zoe's 42.9%, giving Talon a 14.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Zoe controls the early laning stage, but Talon outscales as the game goes longer.

Talon players can confidently pick into Zoe and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Zoe away from CS whenever possible.
