Thx for the guide I will try it! ^_^ GG

Essa Runa forjada com esse talento ficou Muito show

Why is Trinity Force not on there? (Trinity force,Titanic, and Rageblade) Dont you wanna see some Unbenching?

Very good man, with this Tahm is machine. I personally prefer to start with Doran shield against any AD. Warmog is must have item because it let you mid and late game stay on lane pushing and tanking under towers. Only one thing, can you please add more of match-ups? Like some tips and threat against f.e. Jax, Darius etc. Btw Jax have no chance against Tahm I tried 3 times :D

+1 mate, glad to know I was playing him semi correctly. Let it be known though that with devouring your teammates, flash will drop them at your travelling from destination meaning if you decide to support and save your teammates either rely on your natural speed, or slow with omen and hope you can get out in time. alternatively heal and use the speed boost to get out, even though they are devoured they can still be targeted by your and their heal

What do you think about the new Frozen Mallet now that it gives some more hp, is the slow worth the item slot ?

Good guide but I mean Glyph of Scaling magic resist is not soo good. I will take Glyph of magic resist. Its beter in early game.

Oh yeah flat magic res glyphs are better when going versus an ap lane that's aggresive, but I put down scaling though since it's generally a better option versus physical/mixed damage as in those lanes your magic resist won't matter as much until team fighting/ganks happen. It also has the potential of being stronger against ap lanes that are passive pre-6.

I combine magic resist and scaling magic resist. Is that good?

Nothing wrong with it. Obviously in an ideal world where you can have multiple rune setups for Tahm, having flat and scaling Magic res pages would be ideal, but if you just have the one page going 50/50 is fine.

I use this build every time i do Tahm top.

Excellent guide. I love Tahm's playstyle, look and lore so I wanted to get good with him and this really helped out.

That all said, would you mind maybe adding a small section about game stages? Primarily early game? While I've won most of the games I've played Tahm in I always seem to find myself getting murdered before level 6 as I just don't deal the damage necessary to actually threaten a lot of lane opponents.

Thanks again!

That's where he's his relative weakest, an 18 tahm can hold back a number of enemies, a level 1 tahm can barely survive a marksman (exaggeration ahoy).
