Tahm Kench and the bench

Digitus··2 votes·895 views

I feel as though tahm kench would be better suited to his stacks dissipating after two stuns because the ability to endlessly stun you makes getting away from him impossible and the dmg he deals is quite absurd given his support/tank status. I dont know just a thought.

if hes endlessly stunning you alone, you are doing something wrong

Once he swallows you, he regurgitates you in the direction of his choosing with a stun for .25 second. This allows him to immediately land a 2 second 70% slow and an AA for an immediate 2 stacks of Acquired Taste. Stun aside when he regurgitates he spits you out in a location of his choosing allowing him already be in a position that cuts off your escape. This means you must run in a bad direction or run toward Taum to get away. He lands the third stack easily. Depending on your mobility as a champion he can swallow you again to repeat the process or just stun you for 1.5 seconds, get more stacks, and swallow you to repeat the process.

So given that this is the play pattern, what is the player getting endlessly stunned doing wrong?

The thing is, even with that combo, the q necessary for the 3rd stun will take at least another 5 secs to come off cd. Meaning you could literallly walk past tahm, and into a minion wave, or gain the necessary distance to sidestep quite easily

Are you joking?

it is almost impossible to kite tahm kench once he lands that first Q.

The stacks should dissipate after he uses an empowered attack... That would make more sense, instead he can stun, to eat to stun you again
