You're right. He's probably a little underpowered at the moment since his win rates are <= 48%

Yeah, my just over 51% win rate with the champ I've played in 360 ranked games really speaks to how powerful he is . . .

That is my point exactly, actually. Tahm is not some super-strong death machine. He is very balanced towards the side of being weak. The only people who have problems with him are folks who refuse to change their build to deal with him, even though they would build MR or items if Tahm was any other champ. Instead, people just see "Tahm Kench" and thing "OMGZORZ I AM GOING TO LOSE OP OP OP OP OMG RITO PLAZ NERF!"

Sounds like you need to git gud :^) Most people have over a 55% WR on their mains after anywhere near that many games, regardless of their state of balance because they have put more time and practice into that one champion than any other.

Are you seriously trying to tell me your lack of good stats on Tahm, Your main, means that he isn't overpowered?

I'm just saying that he isn't the unstoppable beast you claim him to be, and any statistical data out there agrees with me.

Almost without fail, most people arguing that Tahm is overpowered first say he's too strong, then they say they shouldn't have to build against him when people like me point out the obvious.

Just build intelligently against him instead of being mad that you cannot blindly build your genetic build path, and you'll start beating Tahm lanes. It is really that simple. I cannot fathom why people have such a burr up their ass about counter-building Tahm when it is perfectly acceptable to counter-build vs many other champs in the game.
