Multiple Tahm nerf requests in Gameplay. Really??? REALLY???

He is melee.

You don't have to kill him. You can farm.

Pro tip: fight behind minions and he can't do....one...bloody....thing.....

How on god's green and blue earth are you people losing to and crying about this champ???

HOW!???!!??

The only time he can do anything useful is when YOU misplay!!!!!!!

What the hell are you doing????? Running up to him and attempting to stat check him??????

I think the actual issue is where he is being played at now. Put him bot and you've got 2 people to deal with him or setup some sort of counterplay to him or playing around him.

Put Tahm top and he is a monster to fight against in a melee fight, He's got a stun, A massive MASSIVE fuck off shield or heal depending if he steps back and can eat you for a very real and very large amount of max % hp damage. If you're not setup to fight against him you're going to have a very bad and very real problem dealing with him.

This is also mainly Riot's fault for nerfing his support status and buffing him ways that push him more towards in your face combat which has led to him being taken top.

because bot lane champions can deal with Tahm better than top lane champions. im not going to pick a bot lane champion top lane, destroy my teamcomp and default lose the game for the sake of not getiting zoned out of CS

Yea, you will lose the game by counterpicking your opponent...yep, that will 100% be the case xD

if it breaks your team comp, yes you will lose.

no lol. This is SoloQ we're talking about. Majority of the time your teammates wont "be on the same page" as you, so how do you excpect to build a teamcomp with randoms and make it work? This is not proplay, stuff like that isnt effective in soloQ.

And if you refuse to counterpick your opponent, he will just have an easy time playing against you and you will be behind...which is something that LOWERS YOUR CHANCE of winning. aka, you will put yourself in a losing scenario, which is way worse.

It's best to play in a way it will work for you, aka in a way you will most likely win your lane and transition that lead to other lanes which will result in you being able to push the objectives and eventually win the game.

But i guess it's easier to bitch and moan instead of learning how to beat something you have issues playing against :)

Except he has long-range low-counterplay poke, a 100% chance to stun you if he lands Q because there's no fucking way you're getting away from him because of the slow, his shield for massive amounts of his health...

Tahm is bullshit, plain and simple. The only champion that I've found that's able to deal with him in lane is Kled, because Tahm simply doesn't have the damage to prevent him from remounting, and Kled actually has the mobility to get around Devour's bullshit.

Botlane he's annoying because of those reasons, but it's easier to deal with him because there's two people to fight him and not just one. Top? You don't have many options toplane.

"low-counterplay poke"....its a fucking single target skillshot ffs xD if youre so bad you're not able to dodge a fucking skillshot, then stand begind minions. And he's able to stun you if you, again, dont dodge his Q and if you allow him to proc his stack on ya. Intead of bitching actually learn how to play the laning phase :D

The play Kled. Or Vladimir. Or Kennen. Or any range champ with mobility.

...W is the poke I'm talking about, not Q.

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA thats even worse xD It does way less damage when you use W as a poke rather than enemy stun so having TK to use W to poke you goes in your favor. Edit: and that's still a skillshot that you can dodge btw. Edit 2: According to lol wiki, he's using 100 mana just for his W. Adding all of this, if Tahm uses W to poke you he's losing was more resources than you.

Bro are you even serious?

PhearBunnyJun 8, 20191 votes

okay, and what do i do when Tahm is zoning me from farming? Exactly. I sit on my tower and do nothing and slowly become more and more useless.

I mean. Adcs have had to deal with this for years. I don’t see why suddenly is a problem when it shows up top.

LordGeovanniJun 8, 20191 votes

adc's deal with what who's getting hit from that tounge in their minion wave tahm gets poked out bot before he gets to taste any adc.

LordGeovanniJun 8, 20191 votes

same thing you do when darius Garen teemo jayce nasus after 4 mins and riven do it to you farm under your tower wait for ganks make good defensive buys then come back and fuk them up Rumble still does this too this day where is the rumble outrage. Mordekaiser does this and is going to this better with his rework But you guys wont ever fight the morde mains on the boards. you have options tahm clears slow clear faster than him. He cant regen if he uses his sheild force him to use his shield even if he didnt if he runs away with a bunch of grey health good hes less healthy than before even if he regens some of it. Some one tried to build exicutioners first item. wtf all the healing is out of combat you just wasted 800 gold. play something ap stacks faster than ad champions and magic resist has lower values than armor can reach on top of most ap champions having aoe so they can clear the wave and hit tahm for poke at the same time. Dont cry that you didnt get the kill cause you all in'ed him from and he popped his e and walked away (which in his e stops commands for a decent time so if you let him get away thats on you. you can cut him off) he has to recall now or he comes back and gives you the kill its the same win you get versus riven darius garen illaoi etc. any adc mage or assassin.

Its basiclly a new champion he has not been popular top before and people are spamming him out far more than they were before getting real good real fast while Top laners are fighting something they almost never fought before and are trying the tried and true bot lane support pick a ranged mage and fuk him up method but failing because they didnt realize that doing that bot lane required a non brain dead adc to help finish it off in a burst before he could shield and that in bot tahm didnt have farm. they instead of learning the match up are doing the equivalent of omg bard is broken on first day release.
