All Ekko needs is seconds, but Tahm needs thirds, and fourths, and fifths, and...

i find the chef skin fits very well, he could make a great stew with some salt, basil, and just a pinch of tahm.

Kench you not please?

Lord ScolipedeJul 10, 20153 votes

Reading both puns in Tahm's voice really brings out the flavor in them.

I'm sorry, but it has to be said. I'm going to be doing TONGUES of Damage!

Taken. Preak already announced that pun during the spotlight. :/

If you were born or live in Louisiana and you don't get this champ and skin... SHAME ON YOU!!!

GallowgrimJul 9, 20152 votes

Southerners in general I'd expect.

Kentuckians For Tahm, baby!

NewtypeMafiaJul 9, 20157 votes

Real talk. Riot. Remove Master Chef skin and rerelease it as a Legendary Skin voiced by Gordon Ramsay

coeurloyalJul 9, 20155 votes

Too many F bombs for League. It would bump them up from T rating lol.

Ermm... I don't think fizz is a yordle, it's like saying Annie is a yordle, which she is not, she is just naturally short. Same as a fish, u don't expect a fish with a trident to be 7 feet tall? O well

HaazelinaJul 9, 20155 votes

well annie is a kid tho so thats why she is short

I wonder if tahm jungle is going to work

KingBaconJul 9, 20153 votes

nightblue3 did it multiple times and i would say it works pretty well

NightmareOfEvilJul 9, 20155 votes

To be fair Nightblue3 plays every newly released champion in the jungle :/ Bard item 1039

coeurloyalJul 9, 20152 votes

I think it'll work alright... he may not be as valuable in the jungle as a Gragas or a Sej pre-6, but as long as the laner has a little lockdown so that Tahm can get the 3 stacks in he seems to gank fairly well. I know I'm looking to give it a few tries.

JustsomeGOdzillaJul 9, 20154 votes

why did riot make his bundle cost 1462 I legit just bought a 10 dollar one because I always see the bundles costing 1350 but no it had to be reasonably a bit more than 1350 so u either buy 15 or 20 card and apart from 1350 I only have 52 rp item 3070

lightdragoon88Jul 9, 201510 votes

Bundles have always been 1462. Not once have it ever been 1350.

boolyhopJul 11, 20154 votes

Like if you like/love Tahm Kench's login music. Dislike if you hate/dislike/or think it's kind of meh.

BuhbyeguysJul 9, 20153 votes

How much does he cost in IP?

NightmareOfEvilJul 9, 20154 votes

7800 for his first week of release and then 6300 after that.

Yeargels231Jul 10, 20153 votes

Make it so that whenever gromp the champion eats a yordle and they die while in his mouth he swallows them whole

DavesNotHere94Jul 10, 20152 votes

All hail Nom Kench!

RedReaper6Jul 9, 20151 votes

is it me or will this guy be played by A LOT of trolls? just look at his ability's!

HyperiösJul 9, 20153 votes

Ability* Only his eat thing could be abused. The ultimate shows where he is going before people jump in.

FatcowrayJul 10, 20153 votes

You can choose to leave his mouth though pretty fast

Doctor LeeJul 10, 20152 votes

It literally pings where he is planning to go. If you're careless enough to not look at the map, then you deserve to take an "Abyssal Voyage" to the fountain.

TMarcTheAwesomJul 9, 20151 votes

Why so many support and mage champions riot, where the fighters?
