My personal ban (when my ADC doesn't care who I ban). Max Health damage against a champion who stacks Health isn't fun :(

The chances of your ADC dying are, as they say, negligible.

Champion Build Guide
The Inspiration
Hey all you people. Recently I went ahead and hit Mastery 7 on Tahm Kench (in preparation for a rework that isn't actually coming out yet :( )via playing him Support, and in celebration I figured I'd write a guide for my personal favorite champion (Sett is literally an inch away though). Obviously there's better, more meta Supports out there, but I do think he's a somewhat underrated ticket to a very safe botlane that can still actually be played aggressively.
Game Plan: Laning Phase
Tahm is listed as a Support on the official website and is hit kit is clearly designed around supporting. Then people realized he can 1v1 just about any champion in the game early and to the toplane he went! As you can imagine, giving Toplaners a run for their money means fighting early game ADC's and Supports as Tahm is a breeze, and while you aren't invincible by any means, some good positioning can allow you to be quite aggressive, and you will quickly find the enemy forced to blow summoner spells. This is the main reason I feel like Tahm Kench Support works (at least in my elo), because you can keep your ADC safe while also being really oppressive.
Game Plan: Afterwards
Laning phase has ended, and now you ease comfortably into classic Warden-class shenanigans. Peel for your allies via your W, use Locket in fights, frontline, and you should be straight-chillin. Something worth noting is your ultimate, which can be good for getting to teamfights (and can be used during laning phase as a roaming tool) or as a means of backdooring if you're in a position to do so.
