Life of Frogman Main

I consider myself a simple man of the LOL community. I started playing at the beginning of Season 4 as Chogath one trick. I played primarily Chogath and Malphite for over a year.

Then... on a warm day in mid summer, I saw something beautiful. The way he walked and talked and ate and killed and was, grabbed hold my heart from day 1. I spent 7800 ip on him and I had the most fun I had ever had in my entire life.
What was he? Frogman? Catfish? Or maybe even an angel sent to bring happiness into my life? He was not any of these things of course, for he was simply, TahmKench .

I wanted to play him as much as possible, for I feared he was too powerful, that rito would nerf him and that playing him would feel like playing any other of the trash we call champions. But alas, patch 5.14 came and they only made him stronger. I was baffled! I thought for sure that the God Kench would receive nothing less than a 100% pick/ban rate in every region, across all tiers, but no matter how long I waited... nothing.

TahmKench is trash! That's what they said, they told me I couldn't go jungle or top or mid and they said my one hero... was trash. I did not care though, for I knew in my heart, that TahmKench was everything in my life.

But then, the bruiser update happened... People sought a hero who could defeat the unkillable demons known as Darius and Mordekaiser. But they quickly learned that this hero was born from the same portal from Hell as all the others. That TahmKench was just as evil and demonic, if not more evil and demonic, than the monsters he was chosen to defeat.

Monster! Traitor! Noob! Scoundrel! Beast who can strike fear in even Sataan! These were the names I was given. I tried telling them "Guys, he's just strong right now, I've always loved even when he was weak." but it was to no avail. My friends left. My family disowned me. I couldn't go into public without people scowling at me and screaming at me and calling me names. So, I became the monster that everyone said I was.

Fear! Agony! Despair! These were the things my victims felt. Every game after destroying all the enemies towers, I would stand in front of their fountain and kill them again and again and again and again. And if one of my teammates tried to attack the nexus or an inhibitor, then I would eat them and spit them into the fountain, effectively killing them too. My friends became my servants, living in fear, killing each other just for morsels of food that I allowed them. My family lived in agony as I dropped all their accounts to Bronze V, then only them to play ap Yorick. In public I only saw eyes full of despair as once proud citizens fell on their knees before my presence.

I no longer slept, or ate, cared about anyone. My entire livelihood was TahmKench. I lived every day listening to children wishing each other and me cancer. Ha..... Cancer was the least of my worries. Nothing scared me. Nothing made me worry. Until... that one fateful day, when I saw my own reflection in my servants empty eyes. And all I saw... was a monster. A monster that was worse than Sataan, that could kill strong men with just a lick.

As of today, I am proud to say that I am 50 days TahmKench free. My friends and family have helped me reform, and the doctor says I am 100% cured. Most of my friends and family have forgiven me by now, or are at least trying to. But I wanted to talk to you summoners,

I don't mind good TahmKench players. He's an extremely difficult champion to understand. Too much for me, I'll just play Taric instead.
