PSA: Kench's ally Devour lasts for 4 seconds, stop clicking out early

It's nearly every game I play Kench...

I devour an ally that was hard locked by CC or was just about to receive fatal damage, I start walking them to safety and I WILL reach safety after the full duration of my devour.

And my ally is spam clicking to get out when they have 100 HP and they die to enemies that are following me. I can understand if you have some damage over time or targeted delayed damage applied to you and you want to get out so you can cast Heal or receive a shield or something before that damage kills you inside Devour, that makes sense. But that makes up the vast minority of premature ejects from Devour.

For the love of God. Let a Kench do his thing instead of spitting yourself back into the 4 chasing enemies that you just got saved from.

It’s like the people who run away when Rakan has his Q.

But how can they 1v4 kill the enemy team if they're inside your tummy? You just want to steal their kills! >:o

And then they always blame you for eating them as if that's the reason they died

Oof. I somehow always understood that a Tahm Kench always knows what he’s doing and stayed inside until he spat me into safety. I’ve yet to be disappointed.

I appreciate your assistance greatly.

I can understand someone wanting to get out quickly so they can control themselves again... no, what I want is for them to stop clicking out towards the $%&*(@# danger I just saved them from!

A tahm two games ago ate me when mid morg came to gank after she had already missed her q. I get out kill her but he bought enough time for twitch to get to lane and fk us. I was draven btw. Stop eating us dravens for no reason lmao.

What pisses me off even more about playing tahm is how allies can still be killed in the animation or even when swallowed. I have had it happen a few times, and it just leaves me feeling sad. Otherwise he is my favorite tank support (besides taric)

There needs to be a timer for the person in the mouth on the HUD. I've had times where I try to wait out the time and then I just appear on kench and not get spat out.

I had to stop playing Tahm support because of this. It is too big of an issue in every game.

xelaker3/3/2018, 3:29:45 AM1 votes

what makes it worse is you have to stop to spit them out so you get caught as well

How about you stop eating me in situations i dont want to be eaten in?
