How to play against Tahm Kench

Lane and teamfight rules that hold regardless of your pick.

In lane and in teamfights

1. Trade behind minions so Q cannot start his passive stacks for free.
2. Step away after three passive hits; staying lets him convert the trade with R.
3. Hit his allies first, then wait out R before spending your biggest cooldowns.
4. Cancel or punish W channels around objectives so he cannot create a free flank.
5. Split damage across threats until R is down, then commit to the saved target.

Where Tahm Kench is weak

Exploit these in draft and in lane.

• Tahm Kench is slow to start fights, so ranged teams can kite him before his passive stacks matter.
• Tahm Kench protects one target at a time, leaving the rest of his team exposed to split pressure.
