Kench: I just realized the real issue

As was pointed out in another thread, Tahm does not actually do more damage than other tanks. Additionally, his abilities are all skill shots or melee range. His win rates have never been good since release. Basically, he is not actually that strong as a champ when looking at the big picture. Therefore, I've always been curious as to why there is so much hate on him.

I realized it today. For some reason, and I'm really perplexed as to why, people who hate Tahm all feel like they should not have to adjust their game when Tahm is in it.

Is warwick on the enemy team? Build a qss. Is zed? Build a zhonya's. Annie, brand, or vel support, or an AP mid/jg? Build some magic resist. All AD team? Build thornmail.

But when Tahm is on the team, whom you KNOW is a magic damage champ with heavy cc, nobody wants to do anything. Even diamond Tryndamere main, who probably knows that a qss/merc scim would save him of Tahm devours him during his ult, instead complains on the forum instead of adjusting his build.

NEWS FLASH: Tahm Kench is an impactful champion just like Annie -- ok not that impactful, but still impactful. If he is in your game, it behooves you to, instead of ignoring him so that you can get frustrated and post about how strong he is, too just accept that Tahm Kench is a magic damage champion with powerful single-target crowd control. Once you come to terms with that, you will find he is not nearly as strong as you previously thought.
