im tired of seeing the argument that tahm is a support champion

here is your riots representation of the champions power in top lane AS A TANK
he was only picked as a support because his W utility was insane enough to completely ignore his other abilities
ie a DEVOUR BOT was better than playing him as a tank top
now that you have a 30s cd on your devour if you use it on an ally that means you are literally useless as a support champion if you do that
so the only alternative is to play him top lane
he was always strong top he was even stronger top and you would often just pick him as a kill lane into melee matchups because those were really impossible for him to lose
and i mean impossible in the literal way
at 5s cd q @lvl1 it meant that he can quite literally run you down from lvl 1 till lvl 9 without ANY form of counter play
currently his Q has an 8s cd early
his W does less damage
he only got more sustain for his E
IE TOP TAHM WAS NERFED
learn to play around his strength just like you learned to play around riven and aatrox
the sooner you start doing this the sooner you will find that a tahm lane is really just a farming lane and you outscale him by sheer existence in the game
play the waves and don't try to fight him like a dumbass
