It's pathetic, you can be millions of times better and outplay him in every way, all he has to do is right click and he gets fed. Wtf is the point?

Revert to release tahm, where I can actually play him as a support rather than a busty toplaner. Atleast then my adc won't perma die vs all the damage in this game?

That and release tahm was also a scaling champ, riot slowly powercreeped his early game and took the damage off of his ultimate and put onto his passive so he doesn't have to get points into his R to get his damage.

The only way tahm can be balanced as a solo laner is if he is a scaling champ, his kit is literally designed to stall the game and prevent picks / rotate lanes but when it gets the damage it needs it`s effectiveness on the offensive explodes....and right now its getting that damage earlygame for free.

Right now, the only thing tahm scales with is how many points he has in his Q..

spot on if he was like a nasus or trynda, and had to go through a phase of passive (boring) farming, early, at least that would be fair...

And health, which is kinda the biggest problem as with 1k hp he gains 15, 30, 45 on hit damage and on spell damage, at 2k hp its 30, 60, 90 its really unfun to fight a dude with frozen mallets 700 bonus hp rocking 1250 base health, and multiple shields or 1 90% hp shield, that also has more damage per auto than you with a trinityforce/spear/bork.

change him back to support like he should be, balance that ridiculous grey health shield, and PLEASE do something about consuming the enemy team

Unfortunately they really can’t change him back to a support. The whole purpose of his rework on patch 9.9 was to gut his pro play potential in exchange buff the rest of his kit. Of course what they had to gut was his support capabilities because he was a walking qss. Now he shines a lot more because he is actually playable in solo queue.

but they CAN change him back. it's just instead of being lazy they can actually balance it instead of "let's gut it and make him off theme solo lane champ"

was jungle noc last game against a horrible top lane kench. Guy overextended 24/7 and picked every fight he could even if it was unreasonable (by normal lol logic). I ganked him and killed him like 4 times within the first 10 minutes.

He had sunfire cape and a kill or two. I was like 7/1/4 and he was like 1/2/0 with even farm. He was gonna take top turret if I didnt ult in. I ulted in and used combo, feared him etc, he killed me under turret with like 35% hp left.

This is supposed to be a support champ. Absolute bullshit.

Although, if I timed my spellshield for his devour would have probably won. Still, broken AF.

Exactly. One tahm just right clicked on us 1v2 and killed us both, even as he had less feed than us. Except not in case of extreme outplay, how could this be acceptable?

EonslegacyJun 21, 20191 votes

wouldnt have won tbh, if you spell shield the devour he doesnt consume the stacks, so he will just stun you via q, you were dead regardless, its just Would HE have died after. im guessing no because he can shield 2 or 3 times per fight if he shields earlier.

I honestly don't know what you're complaining about. He seems pretty easy to dunk on and deny both with AP Nasus and with bruiser/predator Garen. You're just sads/bads

lol imagine dreaming about a game instead of playing it
