Tahm Kench is Ridiculous

Alright, does anyone agree with me? Tahm Kench needs a serious nerf, like yesterday. I know I'm bronze, but thats another story. Every game I play an enemy who knows what their doing with kench, absolutely rapes my team. No matter how good my team is, he just builds straight tank, eats the carry and aces every time. Every time. I am tired of playing against him when someone accidentally doesn't ban him. This is ridiculous. Now Riot has nerfed some other champions that were "unbalanced" like Garen. However, can you explain how kench is "balanced"? Why hasn't he received a nerf? And I haven't even talked about his extremely overpowered "Grey Health". How is that balanced? He receives a shield for his entire health bar, flashes away, and even though the shield disappears, it doesn't matter because he's already escaped the team. Then his Q has a stun? Are you serious? On top of his ridiculous slow? How are you even supposed to have a chance against this guy? How is he balanced?

Tahm is freaking ridiculous. You can't really begin to describe the terror that is the toplane Kench. Even if you kill him early for an advantage the moment he gets a item 3742 he's going to run at you with the power of an angry god and almost 100-0 you even if you have an escape. He takes... quite a lot more understanding and careful management to play against than a lot of other champions. They nerfed Gangplank's barrel damage despite that being a minigame that rewards him for doing it right, and then leave Tahm's "oh no you're in lane with me, can't let that happen" ability intact. I can't help but feel like he brings a lot to the table; there's literally a lot on his plate.

https://i.gyazo.com/6344f8b79011efb7e4c0daf5c97a340c.png describes toplane Kench pretty well.

Also Seju or Zac for example both have more reliable and aoe dmg than Tahm so they almost 100-0 you as well I guess lel.

Top lane Kench got a massive nerf from the Mastery changes, CSing with him now is incredibly difficult without that early AD from the offensive tree.

I thought the tank meta was dead ...
