[Rework Concept]: Tahm Kench, The River King
A few days ago, I came up with an Idea for a Rework for Tahm Kench since he's one of my favorite champions and is probably one of the worst champions in the game as of right now.
What I came up with simplifies his [W] (I felt like it was abit overloaded) and gives him an Ultimate that's a bit more useful (Ryze's Realm Warp honestly functions very similar to Tahm's current Ultimate Abyssal Voyage, but better).
[Passive - Acquired Taste]: Tahm's Auto Attacks deal 4% of his Maximum HP as magic Damage & Applies up to 4 Stacks on Enemy Champions Struck. Stacks Decay every 0.7 Seconds when out of combat.
[Q - Tongue Lash]: Tahm fires his tongue out in a straight line, slowing and dealing magic damage to the first unit struck. This applies one stack of his passive. If Tahm uses this on a target with 2 or more stacks, all passive stacks are expunged and the target will be stunned for 2 seconds (debating if there should be a stun timer to prevent chain-stunning).
[W- Abyssal Voyage]: Tahm can scoop up an ally into his mouth and gains up to 30 Move speed towards enemy champions. If immobilized, Tahm will spit out his Ally. (This also has a hefty cooldown to prevent it from making him and his carry too safe).
[E- Tough Skin]: Passively, Damage Tahm takes is stored as Gray Health. Gray Health can be converted into normal Health when out of combat. When Activated, Tahm consumes all Gray Health in exchange for a shield that lasts up to 5 Seconds or until depleted.
[R- Devour]: This ability can only be used on targets with 4 stacks of Acquired Taste. Tahm expunges all stacks of his passive and eats the Target Enemy Champion, inflicting nearsight and suppressing them for 1.5 Seconds (Tahm is Slowed by 80% and cannot use any mobility spells during this ability). If the Target champion is below 15% of their Max HP, Tahm will swallow and Execute the target. Otherwise Tahm will spit out his target, dealing Magic Damage.
It's currently still a work in progress as I'm still figuring out numbers. I just wanted to jot down what I came up with thus far.
What do you guys think?
