Kennen
Hello all! I'm an adc main and I had a question for you guys, I love Kennen as a champ, and even own his amazing "deadly Kennen" skin (the skin that gives kennen the deadpool outfit.) Deadpool is a beast, so all the more reason to want to play ADC kennen.

So I guess the question(s) is (are):

  1. Is Kennen ADC still a viable thing? I know that at one point it worked.
  2. What would kennen's build look like....this is my guess. item 3124 > item 3085 >item 3153 >item 3031 oritem 3508 >item 3157
    item 3006 oritem 3020

I'm favoring this build for several reasons, rageblade for the passive as well as the extra AS, which would help kennen get his marks faster. Also to give Kennen some hybrid AP magic damage, makes it harder to build against him. Runnans for farm, push and ofcourse spreading stacks. Bork since it complements rageblade. Infinity edge for more damage/crit damage, or essence reaver for the CDR? and finally Zhondas for the extra AP and as a safety net since Kennen is always in the middle of the fight.

IDK which boots to use honestly. I debate replacing the hurricane with a shiv or a RFC for the extra oomf of damage. Maybe opt for the new item 3078 ?

  1. What would his laning phase look like? Weak, ok....should he opt for a sustain lane with a soraka/nami/sona or should he go agressive with a blitz/leona/naut lane. Mage support?

Kennen does pretty well as a solo lane. Why hamstring yourself with a support sapping exp by calling yourself ADC? He's got the mobility to escape ganks and can be pretty deadly in his own right. ADCs AKA marksmen are more like champs that are weak early and super strong when feed. They play for the late game when they have gold. Kennen is strong the entire game.
