In what instances should I use kleptomacy kennen?

Xelaadryth (1) | June 17, 2019 7:53pm
Nowadays Klepto is the superior choice in most matchups. Klepto (and Kennen) is especially good against opponents who can't out-trade you if you autoattack, such as kiteable melee tanks. It's tough into champions with point-and-click trades like Viktor, Quinn, etc. or high close-range threat like Brand/Zyra/Heimerdinger since they can zone you out of auto-attack range.

since flash plays are pretty important for kennen would you think is a good idea to use ionian boots insead of sorcery?

It's a decent option, but damage is important too. Perhaps if you're behind and playing more of a supportive role than a carry.

Would Kennen jungle be better than Karthus jungle? If so please could you add a build for jungle Kennen? Even if it is just for a meme I would really appreciate it.

Definitely not, Kennen jungle is atrocious. Stonewall008 put out a video with Ego Ignaxio a long time ago meming it, and it hasn't gotten much better since then.

Greatest Kennen guide ever. Helped me to beat my opposition. Any more tips on how to avoid ganks?
1
Xelaadryth (1) | May 2, 2018 10:57pm
Kennen-specific tips: try to work up to a fifth auto if you see the enemy jungler coming and can't just E away. Save your E for when you can't be slowed. If you can stun the enemy with cc with auto+Q+W, or E+Q+W if they're already on top of you, you may be able to flash out during the stun. If you build up a huuuuge minion wave and harrassed the enemy laner low enough, you can also fight in the center of your wave and 1v2.

These are more general tips, but memorize common times that junglers gank. For instance, first gank is usually top or mid at around 3 minutes. Assume the enemy jungler is parallel to wherever yours is for awhile, when you ward lean towards that side, etc.

IS kennen worth maining; will he stay consistently fun over 100's of games?

Xelaadryth (1) | May 2, 2018 10:54pm
I would definitely say yes, he's always challenging and interesting, but unfortunately not very strong in the meta right now.

Hello, what do you of stormraider's surge over thunderlord decree?
1
Xelaadryth (1) | August 21, 2017 2:09pm
With Kennen's ult now with ramping damage, the burst isn't as reliable for proccing Stormraider's. Thunderlord's is great for poke in a lane where you can auto with W charges, which is where Kennen is really very strong.
