Is it just me, or does Tahm Kench have too much griefing potential?

To be honest, this is what I'm afraid of when you first released Kalista, and it's happened before when she was released. Having her make a pact with me in plain view of the enemy team, suck me in just when I was about to do the finishing strike.

But with Tahm Kench, it's even worse. His Devour isn't even an Ultimate, and he is the one who chooses where I end up.

So my question then is...why isn't there a "Tahm Kench is about to eat you! Do you want to be eaten? Yes/No" option? Or some sort of game setting that bars allied Tahm Kench from devouring you?

On one hand...you're supposed to just report him and let the "tribunal" deal with him. On the other hand,** LIKE RIOT EVER DOES ANYTHING ABOUT TROLLS IN THE FIRST PLACE**. And notice how there isn't any "trolling" option under report anyways, so the closest you got is "intentionally feeding".

Riot can't even be arsed to implement a report or kick function in the champion select, what makes you think they'll start doubling down and actually responding to reported trolls now?

i agree, golden retrievers are adorable.

also, people who design champs like tahm kench and rexai probably dont give a fuck about the game anyways

I understand how you feel about tahm and kalistas ability to "neutralize" an ally with an ability. This however was not likely riots intention with those champs. I do believe that trolling should be a reportable offence as it happens, however most trolls also fall into one or more of the current reportable selections. Back to tahm and kalistas ability to remove an ally for a few seconds, I believe it's the intention of the player using the champion not the designers intention on how a specific champion will be ultimately used after they are released to the public.
