The jungle race — the windows in Talon's plan

Read from Talon's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Sejuani.

StageReadWhy
Level 1 ClearTalon FavouredThe Noxian Diplomacy bleed wins short trades at shared entrances, but Arctic Assault is engage utility, not duel damage. You still win the straight exchange at the first buff; keep it short, keep it decisive, and keep the scuttle line yours.
Level 2 SkirmishTalon FavouredRake's return damage makes mid-range poke trades free for you. Sejuani can make it awkward — the Arctic Assault knock-up into a Permafrost stun chains you into her gank follow-up — but not with one camp still up on both sides. Trade, then walk away with the second buff and the tempo that comes with it.
Level 3 RouteTalon FavouredWall-hop pathing means you only pick fights when the numbers favor you. The margin is thin: Arctic Assault is engage utility, not duel damage, and one slow camp on your side hands the window straight back, so keep the trade short. She can't duel without the stun chain — dodge the Q engage and trade freely.
Levels 4-5 MacroTalon Favoured — Take DuelsThe 4-5 window is yours if you pick it: she uses 4-5 to set up Permafrost ganks with a laner, since her own damage is not the threat. Track that pattern, arrive one camp early, and take the fight before the follow-up shows.
Level 6 BreakpointEven Ult WindowGlacial Prison turns any pick into a team kill, and Shadow Assault answers it almost exactly. Decide this one on setup — vision, numbers and cooldowns — not on the ultimate comparison.
First Item SpikeProfane Hydra SpikeCompleting your core item triggers a massive physical damage and movement multiplier that completely overpowers traditional squishy or isolated targets. Sejuani's first item is a durability spike — she does not start killing you, she starts being impossible to remove.
2+ Items ScalingRespect Sejuani Late — End EarlyYou do not want the late 1v1 here. She is unkillable frontline with a cross-map stun that starts every fight — so trade the map instead, and keep every fight a numbers fight.

How to beat Sejuani as Talon: the first clear and pathing

Start your clear at the Raptors or Red Buff camp utilizing your area-of-effect Rake to maximize early clear speed. Sejuani clears steadily with Winter's Wrath and Fury of the North keeps her health high, so she paths without recalling.
