Introduction
Hi, My IGN Is ColorblindPlayerLet me start off by saying this is my first guide on Mobafire. Also I am not a high elo player at all but I have been playing for a good time now to see what's good and not good. Sorry If I have grammar issues, I'm not the best writer. This Kennen Tank can be considered a troll build to some but I believe he is really viable. Please leave some constructive criticism so I can Improve the build. Thank you. (p.s a guy I met played this build and I fell in love with it so the whole idea isn't mine and I would like to give credit to IGN:Violentcupcake I would like to give credit to jhoijhoi for his template.
Runes
Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed: Movement Speed Quints: These help you with almost anything, its as versatile as flash, it helps you to imitate , escape or just catch up to someone who just got away from your ult.
Greater Mark of Magic Penetration: Okay, this is great because at the beginning the base damage on all abilities aren't bad at all. I find myself dealing good damage with some of my skills just because of the magic pen. Sure you can go Armour runes but they aren't good since it leaves you at almost no damage :/
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist:These are good for late game ap carries mid, gives you good magic resist.
- Greater Seal of Defense: Okay now these I had to ask my friend why they were good and he said since you're solo top you will be leveling up faster and you will get more Armour, sure you can go flat Armour if that's your only option.
Pros
+ No Mana
+ Tons of Stun
+ People don't see it coming
+ very rewarding towards the end when you stun their whole team
+ Great mobility with

+ He's a flippin ninja ;)
+ Underestimated in 1v1 top lanes
Cons
- Not very durable early game
- Not as many stun pre- level 6
- Considered a troll build if team acts ducheyy
- Can't think of anymore ._.
Masteries
We take 0-30-0 Mainly because You don't have good base defense and we would like to enhance that by taking full defense. Keep in mind that you still do pretty good damage with just armor. Also keep in mind you're a tank so it really doesn't matter only early game so you can stay in lane long.

Reason why I believe its better than boots would be because you got your


Now when it comes to boots you can either get


I tend to get Ninja Tabi's way more often then I do get Mercury Treads mainly because you find more AD bruisers up top. I can understand that you can get ganked and CC'd and it would be frustrating to run away if you tend to get cc'd but if your really want to get away you should ult to stun them.

Keep in mind you don't have good resistance so far so don't get to cocky and try to rush at the enemies without your team.









Okay this is just pretty easy.
Always max out
Slicing Maelstrom First at 6,11,16
But when not available max out
Thundering Shuriken
Then
Electrical Surge and lastly
Lightning Rush
Now in the beginning you kind of want to get an early
Lightning Rush in case a level 2 gank occurs from wild
Lee Sin or what not.
Always max out

Okay now the Summoners spells I recommend are
Ignite no doubt about it, the thing is that you really don't do too much damage, now this Ignite will make up for that by doing some damage since it deals true damage it cuts through any health pots or health regen since it reduces healing effects.
Now
Flash you can get
Ghost instead if thats what you prefer but
Flash catches them off guard as well and can avoid some spells if used correctly
I'm not sure about any other spells you can use, I guess you can just experiment with any other.

These are the two most recent games that I had and i've had more but I just played two quick ones to show you what you can do with tanking Kennen.
Okay one thing I've learned from playing Tank kennen is that you let your team know that you will be ganking because the last think you want is a
