Tahm Kench Tips

MetaBot Tips
  • Tahm Kench is able to soak a lot of damage, making them much more viable in the frontline taking damage to protect less tanky teammates.
  • Tahm Kench secures less objectives than most champions. Your value may be better oriented towards helping other champions secure objectives.
  • Tahm Kench tends to have a lower vision score than other champions. Make sure you are working to place wards and clear enemy wards.
  • Tahm Kench has more base armor than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against attack damage type enemies.
  • Tahm Kench has more magic resistance than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against magic damage type enemies.

Playing Tahm Kench

  • Your most important function as a support is to keep fragile allies safe. Keep Devour's range and cooldown in mind and position accordingly!
  • Consider carefully when to use Thick Skin's active. Sometimes shielding early to avoid further damage is good, but sometimes the healing is more beneficial.

Playing Against Tahm Kench

  • When you see Tahm Kench use the shield from Thick Skin, remember that he just opted out of a good deal of healing. He will also not accumulate new gray health until Thick Skin comes off cooldown. Use
  • Watch out for Kench's Abyssal Dive - you can cancel it's channel with immobilizing crowd control effects.
