Im sure this is not the first time this has come up. but its a serious problem I was just in a game with a 4 MAN PRE MADE game my support, tahm, was eating me and throwing me into my enemies and getting me killed this is bullshit. riot, its a fun skill and has saved my ass sooo many times. but its gotten me killed a lot more. idk what or even if you can do something about this without wrecking tahm, but its gotta stop.

if your doing bot lane, and your support is intentionally getting you killed and doing nothing to help you in lane... wtf are you supposed to do? your trapped! your adc, you cant go farm the jungle without dying or backing every camp. your gonna be useless all game. whats worse is that HE IS THROWING ME AT THE ENEMY. and YELLING THAT IM FEEDING. and in turn getting flamed by my whole team

this is just pouring even more gas on the flames on how awfully toxic this games community is! before when people wanted to troll like this, they didnt have a direct way of doing it and now they do.

I was one of the first to say "this isn't going to be an issue" when Tahm came out, but after having people trolling me on my own team with him, I'm starting to rethink my position.

I've had stuff like ultimates cancelled (chanelled ults) because someone would troll eat me. Or running away and our Tahm would eat me and spit me back out to the enemy team, or be ate and spit under tower after minions died at the tower, and other such issues.

Hell I've had a Tahm eat me and spit me out to steal my blue (a Tahm support), and had them eat me and spit me in the opposite direction so they could KS me.

It is silly that it is such an intrusive ability that you have no ability to avoid and no control over.

It's not Tahm growing trolls but Riot itself. They ban whoever rages at trolls but not trolls themselves. That's the true reason why more and more trolls are out there.

Riot is doing it on purpose... they love the toxic champs and the toxic players. Look at the champions that they refuse to nerf and continue to make.... They repeatedly buff Teemo every so often, easily the most toxic champ in the game... they buffed Nidalee after people complained she was overpowered... they made Ekko, a champ that is completely stupid.... and now its Tahm Kench... it wouldn't be so bad if you could choose the direction like a Kalista ult.... But Riot does these things cause its funny to them to read the bitching.

They addressed this with bards as well. Riot answered something along the lines of "if someone decides to troll it will suck and make you lose it doesn't matter if he can kill his ally" and it's completely true.
