Request to buff Tahm Kench
Hi all of you out there on the boards,
So, I like Tahm Kench and I would really like to play him more often. I see in the patch notes that they keep buffing some of his basic stats. While this is helpful I would like to throw a few more suggestions Riots way and see what everyone thinks.
The buffs I propose are:
-
Make tongue lash not hit minions, because it is a harassing tool and honestly as a support who pretty much never uses it on minions there is no reason for it to do this. It already makes you stationary and is a skill shot, letting it be body blocked by minions turns lanes against long range ADC's like Ashe into a slow grind. They will never let you hit them with it, and they will always harass you from behind their minions when you get too close.
-
Devour should prioritize enemy champions within range that have a full stack of Acquired Taste on them. When you're going out of your way to put stacks of Acquired Taste on the enemy champion that is because you intend to devour that champion. Nothing is more aggravating than getting up to red stacks, then flash devour, and only to land up hitting your ally who was chasing instead because they are on top of each other.
-
That thing that they took out which allowed Tahm to use the Q to long range devour should be added back in. It would be a really cool way to differentiate good Kench's from bad Kench's, and gives him a little bit more play. Not unlike Alistars headbutt combo. I know that it could potentially get real crazy in certain match ups, but no more crazy than what he can do right now when he has a slow from an item (like you use your tongue lash Q to slow, then an iceborn gauntlet proc, and by that point they aren't going anywhere anyways). I see no reason not to add this cool combo back into the game.
Thoughts?
