Extreme Threats

Ideal Synergies

Heimerdinger

Extreme

Heimerdinger is a huge counter to Kennen. Be cautious or dodge.

Poppy

Major

She can Perma-CC you. Watch out and don't let her get close.

Hecarim

Even

If he ganks, get under tower immediately.

Fiora

Even

She will try to dive you with her let, so using your E to get out of the situation or to let her get tower shot is the best move.

Akali

Even

She is quite scary. Letting her get close will only work if you have your ultimate up. Otherwise, stay back.

Cho'Gath

Even

His CC will be quite hard to work around, but use your E to get out of those tight spots when needed.

Nasus

Major

Kennen's squishy health will make you an easy target. Don't let Nasus get close.

Camille

Major

Camille's mobility and Q will make Kennen an easy target. Watch out!

Udyr

Extreme

Udyr is a hard counter for Kennen. Even though he isn't a top laner, he'll come from out of nowhere with more speed than Kennen. Be very careful.

Gangplank

Minor

He can have some intimidation factors, but avoid his R and you'll be okay. Getting Grievous is a great option for this matchup.

Aatrox

Major

He can quickly advance on you, so be wary of the Aatrox's positions at all times.

Yone

Minor

Yone does damage, but out playing his range and and working around his E is your best bet here.

Dr. Mundo

Tiny

Mundo is an easy win for Kennen. Have fun.

Darius

Even

This match depends on how you play it. If you are too aggressive, it's over. If you play smart and use your passive within the correct timing, you'll get in and out of engages and potentially win the lane.

Elise

Minor

Play it smart. Use map awareness a lot more and know when Elise is coming so your laner has nothing on you. Making Elise waste time is a great strategy.

Maokai

Extreme

Maokai is a dodge. Your only hope is to play under tower at all costs.

Viego

Major

If you see the green invisible area, run. It will be over unless Viego can't aim his W.

Wukong

Major

Waking is quite scary since you can hit your passive on the wrong Wukong. This match is not ideal.

Tryndamere

Extreme

He is very terrifying. Just run if he gets close, but be careful of his W if you try to run.

Sion

Extreme

Sion is too tanky, it's a dodge or a safer game.

Mordekaiser

Major

He has a lot of ways to hurt you, so stay out of his R.

Kayle

Extreme

She is going to hurt a lot. Hold her down or suffer.

Rumble

Extreme

His abilities make him more aggressive than you. If you can hit him during overdrive, it can save you, but not by much.

Quinn

Extreme

Her kit is deadly for Kennen. It's a dodge or you'll need a good jungler on you.

Evelynn

Strong

Evelynn's charm is a great tool to use so Kennen can hit his passive without as much damage.

Volibear

Strong

Playing with a Volibear JG is great to get stuns and high damage off on a top laner. Kennen will need these quick set ups from Voli in the mid game.

Seraphine

Seraphine's R charm can allow Kennen to win a team fight with his R if he can run in.

Warwick

Strong

Warwick's R can give Kennen the time needed to get his passive off to kill the laner.

Ahri

Ideal

Ahri and Kennen's quick engage power with their hard hitting Q's and Ahri's E can set up for a clean pentakill.

Ekko

Ekko has a lot of regen and CC, making him a useful component for Kennen, especially against melee champions.

Graves

Strong

Graves has a lot fo useful parts of his kit to give Kennen a boost, along with his nearsighted ability, allowing Kennen to get hits off on his passive.

Viego

Strong

Having Viego JG is a great thing. If he ranks properly, the damage done will. have an opponent finished quick.
