Just his devour skill and his sustain alarm my bullshit alert, but other than that really, he seems fine. The fact that he can just eat someone in lane and carry them around freely is super cheap and I wont like it one bit. He seems just as team reliant as Kalista, so this isnt a soloqueue champion.
LoLKiru2 votesHonestly the biggest problem I think he'll have is even getting NEAR enemies to apply stacks to them (he's basically Garen, without the speed boost in terms of mobility)
Edit: Thinking about it more, he might end up being a better top laner than support, if only because it would be absurdly hard for him to apply passive stacks to get any real use out of his skills to ANYONE ranged (he'll literally just get kited into oblivion, unless his ADC is Kalista)
Examining his options, when he has stacks he gets a medium ranged stun on his Q, and the incredibly powerful ability to eat an enemy; the problem is he needs to be in melee range to apply those stacks. Without stacks he loses quite a bit of utility.
Zadic1 votesif you eat your adc, your team will lose dps in teamfight. of course it is good for getting your adc out of mass cc, but how well will your team hold out when its a 3v5 while tahm and the adc is running away? disprove by 1st reply, looks like he is a free cleanse in teamfights
if you want to eat the enemy carry, you need to find a way to apply 3 stacks and get right next to him while not get peeled off by tanks
his q is really unreliable stun in teamfights. again, you need to apply 3 stacks 1st before getting stun, and it only it 1 person and the 1st person, which is usually the tanks. also shield is really bad vs poke, if poke does more than you can heal and you are on low hp, you cannot get stacks for shield or anymore heal
he looks like a beast in lane and setting up ganks
Vistha Kai1 votesAyy, but an ally can jump out of Tahm's belly any moment.
Głacıes1 votesOmg he looks really fun. I think he'll be fine, and if not, he can be fixed. Something like longer cool downs and shorter duration "eaten". I really love his kit though. I also think he's going to be really popular, he has a lot of potential.
Erockandroll1 votesCast on enemy champion reduces his movement speed too much. He won't really be able to drag them anywhere, just remove them from the fight temporarily.
Duel cast is a mechanic I thought was pretty need. It gives the champ more options, more mechanics in his kit. but it's balanced because their bound by the Cooldown, requiring the champion to chose how to use said skill. And the fact that this ability is actually a triple cast (enemy, ally, minion or monster) is even cooler.
