Daily Reminder That Tahm Kench is Mostly Balanced.

His base damage numbers may be a little high, what with the % Max HP scaling on his ultimate's passive, but that's it. At most you can argue to revert his buff from a few patches ago to reduce this damage. He's fine otherwise. Working as intended.

  1. Gets shat on by any juggernaut
  2. Gets kited by ranged champions
  3. Has ~47% win rate in plat+
  4. Has very little mobility outside of his ult, even then it's telegraphed as fuck.

He's one of the few balanced champions released by Riot. He was always good from the start, people just didn't know how to play him. Now that he's seen play at Worlds and got some damage buffs everyone is starting to notice.

Now that we got that out of the way, can we stop banning him in normals and soloq and go back to banning Darius Fiora Mordekaiser Gangplank Elise Kindred instead?

I seriously haven't seen a single TahmKench carry a game or be successful in soloq. Have you people not played against Mordekaiser Darius Gangplank Fiora ???

I just think his devour is too strong. it has a relatively short cd, and can either be used to chunk someone on the enemy team or stop anything from happening to a teammate. It just seems like too easy of a game changer for a basic ability.
