Tahm Kench. Removal or Rework Immediately neccessary

SmackDaddyDarius·Sep 26, 2015·7 votes·2,551 views

Tahm Kench has at least 3 if not 4 abilities that would count as ultimates on any other champ. That's 3 ULTIMATE abilities. 1.) the ability to eat anyone ally or champion on a 9 second cooldown is totally broken. that needs to be a 120 second ultimate. 2.) a shield that recovers 100% of recent damage taken in the last 10 seconds that is another 80 second cooldown Ult, 60 seconds AT THE LEAST that is so overpowered how can you not see that??? 3.) his passive, there is no other champion with this much brokeness in League at the moment. Might as well give Darius a 2 second stun when he gets 5 stacks on someone to make it even. listen guys. Rework or removal is needed. This POS is impossible if the player has even moderate skill.

+1 His heal is my issue, just too much. He never dies unless its minimum 3 v1... Such a stupid champ.

I agree about this. If I would nerf Tahm, I'd nerf this. If he doesn't die, he heals for half the damage you did, or shields for 100% of it.

That requires huge coordination to counter, and especially in lane, it's frustrating. You can't kill his adc cause he just OMNOMs them and waddles away, and you can't kill him unless you 100-0 him or you do twice or three times the damage to whittle him down. :/

He is a tank, he isnt meant to die

Being hard to kill and being borderline immortal are different.

thats his health. his shield recovers 100% of recent damage

Get him to pop his shield, stun him, and by the time the stun wears off that shield is significantly lower by its natural degradation, regardless of if you attack him in this time period.

People are too use to the pattern of stun first, do all your damage, when Tahm requires the opposite.

+1, he's stupid

For starters, he needs to lose the HP scaling passive on his ult. He's rewarded too much for building tank thanks to that.

First of all, they dont remove champions or rework them if they came out within a span of a year. Second, he is easy to outplay and can be out of position easily. Third, His abilities are far from an ultimate, his shield lasts only 1-5 seconds based on who is attcking you, his tongue lash isnt very strong, he is just a cc monster who cant dish out alot of damage without taking a bit of damage.

And finally, he is far from the "most broken champion in league" he is underplayed and has not yet seen competitive gameplay, if you think tahm is broken? you might as well say taric is

Boo. terrible job at defending... wait, what are you even trying to prove here? just terrible. no one wanted to start an argument with a troll.

TL;DR:

#"Tahm Kench has really useful abilities. Because of this, I find it hard to play against him. Therefore, I wish his abilities were less good, so I can keep being less good than I need to be, to defeat a champion with very useful abilities."

Personal opinion: I agree that his E could use a bit toning down, especially the passive heal, but Tahm is just another excellent tanky supp like Thresh, Leona or Braum.

My response to OP? (and similar threads about Darius, Yi, Yasuo etc needing a rework IMMEDIATELY cause OP can't learn to play against them)

Gnar "Shugi shugi shugiii! Bahah."

You don't understand, he isn't a support anymore. He is a top laner and jg now and oppressive as fuck. Why do I need to be faker's disciple to outplay him activating think skin? I wish his abilities were less good so the skill required to play him isn't wayyyyyyyyyyyy less than the skill required to maybe beat him.

XD people are defending tahm.
