Tahm Kench Trolls (Please allow us to block him targeting us)

Anyone else encounter this? Having him spit you out into enemy towers or fountains? Can we get the ability to deny access to allies casting state altering affects on us? The only people I can think that this would work against at the moment is Tahm Kench and Kalista. I don't think anyone else actually changes your state of play, IE inside them or pulling you to them, or deciding to connect with you with an enemy nearby so you auto die.

I know they have it in dota, for instance to keep the one chick from teleporting you back to spawn and such. I feel like if you are going to continue to give people abilities like this, I should have the ability to say that they cannot use it on me. I am aware it limits them, but if they are using it to A: troll me super hard and get me murdered, or B: using it so poorly time and again to get me murdered, then I should have the ability to avoid the ability as it does nothing but harm my own play.

I am not saying get rid of the ability. I am just saying I should be able to switch on or off whether an ally can alter whether or not I am on the field or pulled in or whatever.

I can only compare it to letting a random player on your team activate your Zhonya's for you.

You can leave in two seconds and he cant spit you out immediately.

Just because 1% of the Tahms in this game will use their abilites to troll doesnt mean we have to get rid of the mechanic.

In DotA, where half of the champions have such TROLOLOLOL abilities (this Wisp taking you for a ride to the enemy fountain), there is an option "disable help", which prevents things like Devour from "helping" you.

well if he spit you out on the enemy fountain then you already won the game so... you can jump out

While I don't feel like we should be able to decide whether or not Tahm can eat us, I get how you feel. It is extremely frustrating sometimes when playing with a Tahm Kench. I've played Trist and had Tahm eat me as I was W'ing away from a gank and he ended up getting us both killed. I've had him eat me while I was in mid-ult with MF. It's gotten to the point that if I see Tahm Kench being locked in on my team part of me says, "GG it's a 6v4 now" Yeah they're new to the champ and are learning him but that doesn't make it any less irritating.

i understand there will be trolls, but some people are learning the champ. he is new! plus teamfights its hard to click on an enemy and teammate!

I lied this would also work against bard.. Which I have no idea how to work around, since it would break the ability if you could choose not to be frozen by it while it freezes enemies. It just seems like incredibly bad planning with some of these champions. Such abuse much wow.

It's annoying for them to grab you at stupid times, but you can jump out in your own free will.....
