@@HappyChimeNoises I might be wrong about this, but isn't AP Kench Toplane worse than normal Tank Kench? Since you're building AP, you're far squishier and thus won't win all in fights vs the bruisers, so you would need to poke them ahead of the all in. But your Q is still a skillshot and toplane champs generally have more sustain than midlane champs, so I imagine it would be hard to poke them down enough. Additionally, there are many toplaners who have dashes and CC, which makes your W very hard to hit, which hurts you a lot more than on normal Tahm. And while the %damage of your ult is certainly better vs tanky targets, I'll imagine you would lose a lot of matchups vs bruisers which Tank Kench would normally win.

You didn't cover the ULT+Q undodgable combo. If the enemy is fast enough, he might scape ur Q after you spit them out. So, to avoid mistakes, you can hold the enemy in until the ult is close to expire and cast Q. Since you are going to spit the enemy anyways, you are able to cast Q while the enemy is still being vomitted. Animation cancel is one of the main mechanics of the game, and should be used almost everytime.

@HappyChimeNoises Жыл бұрын
Yes I agree an AP/Tank build is likely the 'Mathematically correct version' of AP Kench. I tried it a few times and am not certain it is the 'Best way to climb in soloq' as your early impact is much lower. I really really value that early AP power to impact the game fast, otherwise you might as well play an ap scaling control mage like Azir instead of Kench Imo. So overall I agree, but I dont think that overall build efficiency is always the best way to play in soloq when you often may not even get 2 full items before the game ends. (Kench is not the best farmer due to waveclear issues, so that is important to keep in mind too)

Hello Chime, Semi OTP Tahm Kench player here, I'd like to point out that TK has an unique q passive which can extend his q range when he grows in size, so items like Heartsteel and elixir of iron are very underrated items since if you have atleast 2-3 items with elixir you have more range than caitlyn with lethal tempo stacked. It is a very important thing to know beacuse it seems that nobody knows about that. If you are going for ap kench, try out heartsteel rush with mejais second. It's the cheapest legendary item and it gives you that range extension on your q since heartsteel unique passive. Third always demonic, hp > ap and kench has that ghetto vlad ap hp hp ap scaling and it's really good on him. then rabbadons for that S L A P and finish off with whatever you like. You can use zhonyas, nashors or anything you need. I also wanna add that with grasp and heartsteel you heal for a lot of health and you deal a hell ton of damage due to heartsteel grasp and your autos dealing around 600-900 late game depending on your last item. Try this build path, it feels amazing, also for the mobility problems you don't have any zince your q range is so high you don't need extra dashes, ghost flash is the most optimal summoner combo. P.S. Sorry for my broken London B-) Have a nice day everyone!

@Somemawile Жыл бұрын
From my testing of ap kench, albeit I'm not a high elo player so take it as you will, you can buff his q range issue by foregoing some of the burst of night harvester in exchange for Heartsteel. Especially helps if you are going comet runes and the enemy doesn't have a lot of high mobility Champs. Heatsteel gives you size and his q range scales significantly with size buffs, plus if you're building demonic anyway, all that health you're getting from it is directly translated into ap so it's not a significant compromise for damage
@nectarnut9262 Жыл бұрын
I tried Ap kench for like 40 ranked games in Plat as soon as I saw the buffs. I came up with 2 builds First one is Everfrost, Rabadons, Zhonyas, and then whatever. The reason I go rabadons second, is because his AP scalings are so big, I feel it’s best to get as much AP asap for big burst. Second build is Heartsteel, Demonic Embrace, Nashors Tooth, and then AP+HP items according to game. This build works better if your team needs someone to tank, but also do some damage. (With just HS and DE you get close to 4000+ hp)
@tareyus2977 Жыл бұрын
I think my favorite Tahm Kench build is Heartsteel, Demonics, Titanic, and then basically whatever three other items you want because heartsteel gives demonics and titanic all the scaling they need. You can go Death cap for more overall AP to your already infinite scaling AP and AD or go Sunfire and burn and become tanky. You can build on hit on him too, which is wack cause depending on how much AP and health you have on him, his autos can do very easily 500 per hit and even up to 1000 and beyond. It seems people don't realize how wack his scaling really is, especially with heartsteel pumping everything infinitely.
@Trockenmatt Жыл бұрын
Someone on r/TahmKenchMains did some math, and it turns out that his passive AP ratio isn't actually an AP ratio. Instead, it gives more max hp scaling if you have more AP.

It's sad how bursty he is with Heartsteel as his mythic, and then AP for the rest. It would also sort of help with your issues. Better range, because of size increase.

And obv the wave clear is just gonna suck, but you could use demonic embrace to help a bit.

Pantheon Ap is dangerously underrated. His ult ratio is massiv and zhonya is such a good item for him. With ap reduction gain from ap items, first of all he can at least stun twice or thrice in a single teamfight and his zhonya can allow him to use twice his E in a single fight and stall a lot. Plus his W has ap scaling. As a support or jungle, he became quite scary and unexpected. The thing being that people underestimate how rocketbelt with pantheon is a threat for them. You can use it while on E. If you use ur ult quite well, you can now easily chase those who used to flee away from you. I would highly suggest to try it out.

Would not recommend night harvester as mythic. Does less dmg than rocketbelt because you get both active wich does exakt same dmg + gives pen and a dash. And with magic resistance being so low to start on most champ compared to armor you do alot more dmg with ludens, protobelt and liadry than you do with night harvester. And the only benefit from night harvester is the 50hp and 10 ability haste (compared to hextech). But if you are not comfortable with active items go ludens or liandry (if you are only looking for the most dmg). But i would still always recommend everfrost or protobelt over night harvester. ( I know it's an off meta build but you don't need to intetionally buy bad items)

You are forgetting the Night harvester passive " Damaging an enemy champion deals 125 (+ 15% AP) bonus magic damage and grants you 25% bonus movement speed for 1.5 seconds, with the duration extending on subsequent triggers" Very strong with single ability champs like Tahm with his Q, also with Nidalee spears and stuff like that. THe flat damage + the speed you get is very valuable. I dont think that ludens or protobelt are bad items - I say that protobelt is a great idea in this video. I do think ludens is a big waste of gold as you dont care about mana at all, and I also think that magic pen on tahm is close to useless as his ult does %hp damage, so why both with magic pen if you can eat a tank and kill them. I appreciate your perspective but I think that some of your ideas are also flawed, and you have not given night harvester a proper rating. I dont claim that my ideas are perfect at all, this video is all about testing - but they definitly are not bad items. Night havester used to be terrible on every champ, so you may just need to update your knowledge on it Also this debate is not a 'Yes or no'. All items have good reasons why they can be used - even Everfrost just for the kill combo - that can be enough to get you to high elo I am sure. So I dont wish to say 'Build X or it is bad', I am open to testing everything.

@@HappyChimeNoises UNIQUE - SUPERSONIC: Dash 125 to 275 units in the target direction, though not through terrain, unleashing an arc of 7 rockets in the same direction that deal 125 (+ 15% AP) magic damage to enemies hit. Afterwards, gain 30% bonus movement speed while facing nearby enemy champions for 1.5 seconds (40 second cooldown). - Hextech Same dmg, more mobility, higher ms. The flat dmg is the same if you hit protobelt wich can be hard sometimes yes, but most of the time it's not. Magic pen is even better on tham than most because he does % dmg with ult. Because it is usually a higher result number that is calculated into a %reduction vs mr the dmg difference will be quite big especially later in the game when you get more pen. Night harvester is fine, but i as a person fixate on details and in the details it's worse in a lot of ways compared to the other ap items. and my ingame opinion "nightharvester shit rep tham" jk But dmg diff at lvl 6 with 1 item on a target with 30mr (which is lower than most base at lvl1) is 16 in favor of hextech and this amount is only more favored by belt the further in the game you go. you can test this with 1 ad rune and 0 other dmg sorces other than q and active i don't mean to sound like a duchebag it just happens unfortunetly.

If you want to try out another off meta pick, try Seraphine tank support.

Tham Q range depend of the champion hitbox to a 1:1 ratio, meaning that if you where to build iceborn gauntlet (or now heartsteel) you can increase he's Q range by quit a lot. (keep in mind the range indicator dosn't change so you need a bit of practise to understand where ur q reach)

I'm surprised this wasn't an A build, tho maybe could reach it if anyone master the art of roaming with it, or maybe go disrupt jungle in mid game

Yes I think that it is certainly a low skill floor pick, but very high skill cap - as with any full damage/low mobility pick. I put it in this tier as it is not amazing for climbing soloq with in any rank. It is really good at 1v1s and SUPER FUN, but it is hard to play consistently well in every matchup/vs every team comp. In comparison - most of the A/S tier champs you can pick against anything and win most games just with your own impact. I think that we may one day see a Korean everfrost tahm kench in Master+ similar to the Ap nunu mid we had. And I look forward to him proving me wrong

Hear me out you get heartsteel as your mythic for a bit of tankiness+ burst dmg and since it gives you size it will make your q longer so it becomes harder to avoid.

I went against this a couple weeks ago as Xin Zhao. It was the most miserable experience. Kench had a full stacked majeis at 20 minutes and he would destroy my team.
