Is it me or is Kennen the "Flavour of the month" in TFT
Almost in all of my TFT games I see the enemy running said team comp, wether its Blademasters, Rangers, Demons. There is always and I mean always a Kennen in everysingle one of them. It doesnt matter if it synergizes with the team comp or not, but 90% of the time I see a Kennen in every team. Melting my entire team with that AoE stun...
TwitchInMyPants2 votesKennen has literally been meta since release
AoE stun on a 3 cost unit, Ninja bonus so he's viable in all comps, Yordle/Elementalist are potent synergies when you actually use them. And they've only buffed him since release.
He punches above other 3 cost units, but given you have options like Gangplank, Evelynn, and Rengar punching above their weight too Kennen has competition for who's the best in that tier. But given a 3 cost is doing what Cho/Sejuani do while being a solo synergy, he's really, really good.

Patch 9.15 says:
"Kennen Ability Damage: 400/650/900 ⇒ 225/450/675"
I'd say that's a pretty sizeable nerf.
TwitchInMyPants2 votesMissed that one lol
But yeah given the Ninja buff giving AP that compensates and they've done all kinds of attack and AI buffs and he's still very relevant in the meta. He's easily competing for the strongest champion of his tier. Sorry for the mistake.
GipJoCalderone1 votesHe's not OP, he is on the strong side, Eve/Swain are OP.
Jesi Oni1 votesHe is a good fill because he is a Ninja. And other ninjas are kinda weak...
Porglit1 votesYeah, the 50 AP helps bring back a bit of that damage, but he also now relies on the ninja buff to do that damage. Throw a hat on him and that 50AP far more than makes up the difference in the nerf.
Hvsao1 votesIf you run 2 silver kennens + 2 bronze kennens they all get ninja buff now and its hilarious how strong it is.
