So, Here We Are Again Tahmus Kench

I kinda wish he would just get an ability rework, change his W to R and give him some new utility ability or damage. He is either totally busted in top or complete garbage and there has literally never been any in between just because of HOW his kit functions.

His lane sustain is amazing and his ability to stick to enemies is literally impossible to escape unless you're Udyr or Singed.

I play a lot of Tahm and there isn't much right now that can crush him other than a better player. He needs a change and I think that W --> R has the greatest potential. But here's a few ideas I had:

• Move W --> R --> Give it more damage or allow it to hold an ally/ enemy for much longer (which would of course mean a revert to the movement speed nerf given in 9.9 whilst carrying allies) and in turn a true ultimate cool-down (120/100/90)

• Make his third stack apply an effect similar to charm, where the opponent slowly approaches, rather than a flat stun, but it removes the stacks vs. current Tahm where the stun makes the stacks remain (it makes sense thematically with him being a silver-tongued demon convincing people to do stupid things)

• Change his W into a frontal cone AoE where Tahm spits out some of "the river," the AoE does DoT like Morgana's W and slows an enemy by a small amount, it can also be cast within a small radius, so he can poke a little better as a support

• In exchange for more poke with the W, we can nerf the cool-down/ damage of Q and move some of that power into both his new R and W.

I think this would pretty well solve Tahm's current issue, especially if his stacks don't reset -- as he cannot stick to people as well and requires him to savor his cool-downs carefully. It may even make building him AP somewhat viable, similar to Gragas (hopefully better than Gragas).

Thoughts? (Don't murder me ;-;)
