How to counter Tahm Top?

5050BS··1 votes·1,311 views

Builds nothing but HPs and does stupid amounts of damage. You cant run from him so if he hits you ONCE with Q you are dead. Building HP does not stop him because he can eat you multiple times for LARGE % max HP and stun you multiple times. And if you can get him low he shields and finishes you off with a second or third eating.

So how do you counter it? HP items are WAY cheaper then damage items and he builds only item 3022 as offence. Everything else is Def/HPs

Oh and the latest aditions Irelia and Pyke . Irelia's 300% bonus damage against shields will shread Tahm's bubble while Pyke's ultimate executes anyone at low HP, and it ignores shields.

Tahm is strong vs melees, but he is not a good toplaners, because how poorly he scales compared to the competition.

Sion is outscaled by almost all of the competition too, and look how long it took before he needed a nerf.

Hell, I'v completely murdered Heim and Nasus as Tahm top in a number of games. Heimer in particular I found to be countered by well used Devours If you call those free wins, I would double check the price tags.

I'm assuming equal skill. If the Heimer died to you, he is bad. Nasus can't die to you early unless you bring ignite.

Tahm would have been very oppressive champ, if he was released before champs started getting too much wall hops and blinks. Now he is OK.

Urgot doesn't care about the shield if you can hit the ult Olaf seems like he might be decent

If he builds nothing but HP

AD: item 3153 item 3036

AP: item 3151 item 3135

Both of these items are fairly cheap to get and you can stomp him after.
