Why this duo works

When Talon commits to a dive, Galio can follow with Hero's Entrance (R), shielding him and adding a knockup. Talon players specifically describe Galio as strong follow-up for Talon's go-in, giving the dive another layer of control and damage.

Playing the duo

Talon can use Assassin's Path (E) to enter over terrain, while Galio can target an ally with Hero's Entrance (R) to shield that ally and knock up nearby enemies on arrival.

How to play as Talon

When Galio is in Hero's Entrance range, call your dive before committing so he can follow onto you with R; Talon players specifically recommend Galio as go-in follow-up.

How to play as Galio

Wait for Talon to commit to the target, then use Hero's Entrance (R) on him so your shield and knockup follow the dive rather than arriving before it.
