Kench officially benched?

He has a 46% win rate, he's super out of favor in most support matchups right now, and his most successful lane is top (and his performance there isn't even anything to write home about).

I don't want to be a Debbie Downer or anything, but I don't see why taking a whole 10% off his base hp in lane is necessary.

Because pro play. Welcome to the club.

People seem to be confused on what "bench the Kench" was referring to. It was when he was too strong and was banned most of the time. He was unbenched when they nerfed him.

Him being too weak to be viable isn't him being on the bench.

I can't pick him anymore without being a detriment to my team at level 1. You will just get bullied by ANY poke in lane and be useless the entire time. Level 2, lucian all-ins your lane and you lose no matter what, or at least blow your flash.

Blame the pros he was still getting first picked after the devour nerf. I think this time the nerf bat may have fallen hard enough to push him out.
