i absolutely hate that pro LoL in 2016 will be "year of kench" AKA "year of falling asleep"
i absolutely hate that because kench is so broken and bad for the game, that kench will be firstpick or banned in the whole 2016 season across all regions. hes worse than thresh. kench basically took everything wrong with thresh and multiplied it.
but heck at least when someone skilled is playing thresh its actually entertaining to watch.
the worst thing about kench is that it doesnt even take skill to do what hes created to do.
when kench eats someone in a LCS game, it is not #lcsbigplays no. its #that-was-boring-as-fuck-to-watch
seriously. DO WE REALLY WANT TO SEE A WHOLE FUCKING YEAR of tahm kench eating people in every time something exciting happens in a pro game? is that REALLY entertaining to watch? is that REALLY skillfull play?
kench is the only champ i feel maybe should be removed because no matter how balanced you make his kit its still the most boring piece of crap ive ever seen in a moba. NO ONE CARES IF YOU FRICKEN pressed 1 button to make your teammate immune to the good plays of the enemy team. god i hate watching it and i hate that his numbers are so overtuned to force him to be viable. outdamaging assasins. WHY RIOT? WHY DO YOU WANT THIS PIECE OF CRAP TO BE VIABLE? he needs a MASSIVE rework. he is poppy levels of unhealthy for the game.
if you want my idea to rework tahm into something that might be healthy for the game, then his ability to devour champions would need to be on like a 90 second cooldown. let tahm eat non-champions normally. but eating champions has to be on like a 90 second cooldown for it to actually be entertaining due to its rarity. something that can happen every 10 fucking seconds is not entertaining. voiding good plays by the enemy team every 10 seconds is just dumb.
tahm kench has a kit thats about 1000x worse than garens kit in terms of "skillfull play". heck, garen used to be a earlygame bully and you could say garen was the easiest champ to play while he was a early game bully with a easy kit and easy play, but now with garens "weak early, lategame god scaling" kit garen actually takes alot of skill to play. try playing garen into a renekton or riven that is equal to your skill level and your bound to get smoked out of the lane and be 0-10 before you can even reach your lategame scaling
playing garen actually takes skill and even though garens kit is so 1-dimensional, its actually 1-dimensional in a good way where it takes SKILL to turn that 1-dimensional kit into something powerful that wins games
but not kench. kench has a kit thats 1-dimensional in the bad way where it just makes me wanna sleep when i watch a game with tahm kench in it
but we cant just remove kench. so please for the love of god riot, please take tahm kench and put him to galio levels of competitive viability until you figure out how to rework the kench. whens the last time we saw galio? please. make kench in the LCS like galio in the LCS, riot.
however, poor galio, i actually would like to see him being played. he actually takes skill and is entertaining. unlike kench
