As the title says...

TahmKench is currently sitting at a 47% win rate: http://na.op.gg/champion/tahmkench/statistics/support https://champion.gg/champion/TahmKench/Support

Passive: An Acquired Taste

Magic damage changed to true damage

Q: Tongue Lash

Slow increased from 30/40/50/60/70% to 80% all ranks

Slow duration increased from 1.5 seconds to 2.5 seconds

W: Devour/Regurgitate

Cooldown decreased from 28/25/22/19/16 to 22/19/16/13/10 seconds

Damage increased from 20/23/26/29/32% to 32/33/34/35/36% of the target's maximum health in magic damage

Enemy champion devour duration increased from 2 seconds to 4 seconds

2% per 100 AP scaling changed to 2% per 200 bonus health scaling

New Effect Can now devour and regurgitate large monsters - upon reaching three stacks


Reasons:

-By changing his passive damage to true damage will allow TahmKench to duel much better and be hard to build against.

-By buffing the slow and slow duration on Tongue Lash will allow TahmKench to be hard to get away from and allow him to apply stacks much faster.

-By buffing the cooldown on Devour will make TahmKench a more viable support again and much more oppressive top lane combining the cooldown reduction with the change with past patches.

-By buffing the damage, changing the scaling, and increasing the duration on enemy champions held on Devour/Regurgitate will make TahmKench a much bigger threat to the enemy team (and making him more oppressive top lane).

-Allowing TahmKench to devour large monsters will finally make him a viable jungler.

god no, as long as he can devour allies to save them, TahmKench does not deserve to even exist.

his devour basially is a item 3222 and a more powerfull Akali should in one skill. (because you cant even hit them with AOE)

and he forced you to trying to bring him down before u cant even touch his carry... which is neigh impossible to do because HE IS A TANK with effectively a built in item 3193

sincerely - your opposing support that is trying to CC thier ADC

Don’t be surprised, this is colton. He/she always thinks up some shit that will break the game and thinks they are balanced changes.

They're a troll. Tbh I don't know why mods don't just shift all their threads to memes and games.

"True damage on tahm passive" Please, I can only get so hard. Just think abour top lane Tahm if that went through

I think the passive is fine. What really ticks me is how Devour doesn’t do much damage at all late game, when everyone has MR. I’d like it to deal true damage, probably 12/14/16/18/20% of the target’s max HP, with no stat scaling. And that’s the only change I think Tahm needs. His identity as a warden took a severe hit with the Devour cooldown nerf, so I’d like to cement him as a juggernaut/warden hybrid instead (like Skarner).

He needs something to make him a better support without making him unstoppable in top lane. Maybe giving his tongue lash an effect like the resolve rune that heals allies that attack the same target, but a stronger version. He has so little sustain in lane now and gets absolutely massacred by poke lanes.

he should also be allowed to swallow minions to restore health with Devour. his Grey Skin ability isn't reliable enough for health restore.

As a man who loves Tahm Kench I only have one thing to say.

What substances are you taking to think for even a moment these ideas would be fair?

and where can I get some of that?
