People are starting to notice Tahm Kench

I just got off a game where we actually made huge comeback. The enemy team's Ekko complained about Tahm Kench having too much health and dealing too much damage. Which rustled my jimmies, for this is coming out of an Ekko player.

I tried to explain that while TK is tanky and damaging, he is also incredibly immobile and kiteable. But Ekko was having none of it.

My point is, what do you guys think? I personally think he's in a good spot right now. He's a terror to fight against 2v1, but he's easily countered by mobile champions.

I feel like he's one of those guys where if you're ahead as him, its basically gg. But if you get behind with him, he kind of sucks.

I can't explain why, but I think that's the way he is.

I think the people who complain about him being impossible to fight against are the same kind of people complaining about Juggernauts also being toxic or broken: Tahm Kench is a champion whose power only truly unlocks once he really gets going in a fight, so if you trade extensively with him at melee range you're playing to his strengths, and so will likely lose. However, if you just stay away from him and try to attack him in short bursts, then you deny his passive and avoid the brunt of his damage and crowd control.

I think he's cancer.

Poke is by definition pretty frustrating, being damaged without the opportunity to return it.

Dude, he's been good since release - this isn't some sudden revelation. I've been arguing this point since his first buff and I stand by it.

He's very frustrating to deal with as a melee.

I'm not sure how I stand with him, if I see him on the enemy I don't start to cringe. Now getting eaten by him, that's another story. xD
