Tahm Kench is DISGUSTINGLY strong
He does way too much damage at all stages of the game. You max your Devour first, and then you have an ability that has 300 base damage like WTF? Not to mention, the thing you ate instantly loses 32% of his health bar, which is fucking stupid. Getting your passive stacks on them is in no way a hassle, because your 5k health will make you tanky as shit, with your auto attacks doing over 250 bonus magic damage. Let's look at Riot's definition of a tank real quick. 'While they don't deal the most damage, tanks are durable, front-line champions that lock down enemies and start fights. They usually lead the charge, choosing the right moment to initiate aggression. Many tank can also protect squishier teammates by immobilizing dangerous foes and limiting their ability to inflict damage.'
What does tahm have that Riot's view of a tank doesnt? He deals retarded damage. He is durable, he can lock down enemies and start fights, he can easily protect his carries with his devour, and he has strong af cc and a shield that can fill his entire life bar.
The buffs he got were COMPLETELY unnecessary, because even then, his damage was off the charts. Let's look at other tank champions that are able to deal lots of damage. Gragas, Jarvan IV, Amumu, Nasus, Nautilus, Sejuani, and zac are the ones I see. What do they have in common? All of them except nasus and nautilus have some sort of %health damage Gragas has his drunken rage, which is like 12% max health damage Jarvan has his passive, which I cant say with confidence because I havent played him in forever. Amumu has his Despair, plus he can build Liandrys to shred tanks with no mercy Sejuani has her Flail of the Northern Winds, which is 4% of their max health if I remember correctly. It used to be on her Arctic Assault. and Zac has his Unstable Matter, which does great damage due to its low cooldown. Nasus and Nautilus are able to do a ton of damage through high base damages. Tahm has literally everything every champ I just mentioned has. He has high as shit base damage, his q alone can do almost 700 damage His auto attacks can do up to 350 damage His devour has THIRTY TWO FUCKING PERCENT HEALTH DAMAGE
Do you guys see what I am talking about now? The only champion in the game that did more damage to champions was Ziggs with his spammable abilities. I died seven times out of the 51 total deaths, because I was able to just leeroy jenkins into their entire team, brutally murder ashe and ziggs with a few attacks, and then press E to double my health bar.
All I ask is that Riot lowers his Q's base damage to a reasonable amount, and they reduce the %hp damage on his Devour. It's disgusting. I understand that he is literally eating you, but it outdamages a Jinx ult, which is a fucking missile, and cho gath's feast, which again, he is literally eating you.
