44.9 winrate in norms and 45.2 in ranked. He is the lowest winrate in norms and tied at the bottom with nunu in ranked. Seriously this is not cool. Playing him is extremely hard as well, which doesn't help anything. He has a good early game, with high dmg on his q and w, but he simply cannot compete with the rest of the crowd. He needs buffs, I mean, look how cool he is. http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20150703093135/leagueoflegends/de/images/thumb/0/0c/Tahm_Kench_Promo_10.jpg/308px-Tahm_Kench_Promo_10.jpg

He doesn't need that much buffs. Just a small little push should be ok for him.

Not a good reason to keep a champion underperforming.

he was kinda playable top lane after buffs in like bronze-gold, but once you hit high gold and try to get into plat, he really under performs (tahm main who tried this after nerfs). MYMU didn't help him a lot either, he needs some small buffs to help him out.

He does have a pretty decent early game, but once both top laners hit 6 tahm takes a huge nosedive in power simply for the fact that he has no ult for combat. Any decent toplaner should know to play safe till 6 cause that's when tahm takes a heavy fall in power.

tahm hits his first power spike at level 6.... his ults passive increases the dmg of aa and his abilities which means he hits like a truck. riot nerfed his ult passive though so it doesnt scale as hard and isnt so strong early on however, and they also nerfed his other abilities. all these nerfs make him much weaker then other laners. if you're good at tahm though, at low elo you can survive the laning phase and probably pick up a kill when you hit 6 because you have more consistent damage then most laners. however at higher elo, people will take advantage of his weak early game, his Q is easy to dodge and cant go through minions, his e only works if the enemy champ has 3 stacks (which are hard to apply now) and w sometimes can't be used if the enemy is smart and uses cc. tahm gets better when he hits 6 because he has map pressure and his aibilities will do wayy more damage.

True he gets a spike at 6 and has map pressure, but keep in mind there are much better options for this. Tahms ult has a slight delay, tells the enemy team EXACTLY where he is going, while dealing no damage. Sion's ult, though its not a tp, can be used to run almost the same distance, with a knockup and high damage. Quinn can easily hop on valor and soar wherever she pleases, though slower she can be more stealthy and is on an extraordinarily low cd. Tahm does take someone with him though, and that person can engage for the team but that's just about all that ult of his has.
