Thanks for posting your Tahm guide, thriek. I've been trying him out of late and I appreciate the tips you pointed out. Most specifically:

thriek wrote:


Then wolves, save the smite, which will be off CD now. Instead, give the big one a smack, devour it, and keep it in your belly while you focus on the little ones for about 4 hits. It's usually best in early game with the little camps to keep the large monster in your belly while you take out the smaller ones, to save you taking extra damage. Take an E after this one.

Only ever use your E if you are very low on health, or you see an ult incoming that would kill you (like Garen's ult. Your E shield counts as health, so his ult will do very little damage).

If you get invaded, assuming you're not low, always engage them. Don't use your devour! What you need to do is start hitting them with basic attacks, as soon as you build enough passive, q them for a stun. Then, if they still have over half hp, instead of using devour, keep hitting them until you get to use Q again. Of course, if you have a teammate on the way, or you yourself are low, then devour can be very useful for holding an enemy down.

Finally, how to use your ult. It's main power comes from it's passive, but I mainly use to jump around the jungle and farm quicker. It's other use is to come to an ally's aid and hopefully get there in time to eat them and save them, or to teleport ahead of a fleeing enemy. But my favourite use of ult, is to teleport the adc with me next to an unguarded inhibitor or nexus. That's fun.


Re ults with long animations. I've found that if you have 3 stacks on Garen and he ults you then you can eat him before the animation completes which cancels his ult. That of course is cutting it close. XD

Agree with you that the biggest danger to Tahm is his first clear.

So far I've had the best success running 0-21-9 going for biscuits and Atk Spd Marks, Health/lvl seals, 10% CDR at a mix of flat and per lvl CDR glyphs, and Armor Quints. With a point in W and E or Q, I find can reliable make it through four camps with this setup. Going to have to see how holding the big camp creep in my tummy helps with this.

Hmm, also if you go 3 points in Expanded Mind in the Utility mastery tree you could go full magic pen on your glyphs and have a little more mana. 75 vs 45 if I've done the math correctly.

I tried Tahm Kench jungler with devourer too and it's really strong.^^ Though, with this build you have no MR and I think boots are still pretty necessairy, so I would take MR boots instead of Nashor's Tooth, because I dont think you really need the AP since you already have huge dmg from your ult.
