stroderna says “Try not to fight Tahm Kench up close. The key to winning a battle against him is stopping him from swallowing his ADC, and of course, you killing that ADC.”
daltonfresh says “You usually have the advantage here, since dodging his engage (W) is pretty easy for you. If he engages on your adc, try to render him useless by using your W and letting your adc fall back to safety. He has insane survivability with his health and shield, so try to NEVER focus him unless he is the last one standing. You win by putting his adc at a disadvantage while avoiding his tongue poke (Q). You should have an easier time than him peeling for your adc.”
ShriekingMammoth says “Can be pretty good. You will beat him with auto Qs and taunting him whilst hes low makes him unable to use his E for the big shield. Also a matchup where running Grasp can be a pretty good idea.”

Neiri says “Hopefully he's autofilled. Don't let him get close to stack his passive.”

FiletedMinion says “He likely is not support. So he will have levels on you if you are support or jungle and it will just be BAD.”

Zileanaire says “I wish the Kench would get back on the bench. He doesn't die, he does too much damage for a full tank. If you're quick you can stun him before he can W in/out. Not unwinnable, but very annoying at every stage of the game. ”

Weyko says “I always ban him, for my sake, my adc's sake and my top laner's , way too tanky, too much damage, its really a disgusting champ imo”

Tips Against Tahm Kench in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

ExiledRain says “Power level: He can be killed early but at 6 he might start pulling you under tower. Game plan: This matchup you should also play to chunk him and farm.On 3 marks he can stun you, have massive shield and built in damage based on his hp ,meaning long trades are not in favor. During fight make sure his Q wont trigger mark.And whenever he dives you have chance to cancel it with W/Q3 Tips: He does not have a wave clear before items, utilize this fact.”

asuratop1 says “Ritmo Fatal + Escudo É uma lane que você sempre vai ter pressão, mas se o TK quiser, você nunca vai matar ele, joga com calma e paciência, proxy é perfeito nessa matchup, então rush Tiamat. Tome cuidado com as plays debaixo da torre do TK pra você não tomar um combo de heavy cc debaixo da torre dele e morrer pra torre. Sempre desvie dos Q dele e tudo vai ocorrer bem Build > Trinity > Mercury > Rei > Quebrapassos > Limite da Razão (Jogue focado na side lane)”
zwartebliksem says “Tahm Kench is one of the hardest tank matchups, since his early damage is just so high. He can get a very easy trade by using his W onto you when you are charging your Q. Look to bait his E and dodge his Q, since this is where you can start winning trades. Once Tahm Kench gets ahead, he can run you down with his ult. If you think he can stun you when lower than 50% hp, look to ult out immediately.”

forsakn says “ Levels 1–5: Tahm’s early trades with Q (Tongue Lash) + autos are oppressive. Avoid standing near walls for his W (Devour) setup and don’t overcommit—he can trade heavily if you’re caught. Wave control: Let him push. Freeze near tower to minimize all-in threat and stay safe. Trading: Short trades with Auto + E poke work best. If he tries to all-in, use Q + W to poke and create distance. Post-6: His R (Abyssal Voyage) allows roams and global pressure, but 1v1 you can manage him with spacing and poke. Summoner Spells: Flash + Teleport is standard. Ignite can help if he dives aggressively. Scaling: You outscale Tahm Kench mid-late game. Once you hit level 11 with core items, your sustained damage surpasses his early tankiness. By level 16, you can kite, trade safely, and take over side lanes. Tahm Kench top is tough early with trades and CC. Keep your distance, poke carefully, and once you’re powered up you can dominate the lane.”
Hoikatop says “One of the harder tank matchups because his damage and CC is just really good versus single-target, so in top lane 1v1 he shines. Just don't get stunned near his turret because he will eat you and then spit you under his turret, and then knock you up and kill you. Focus on dodging his Q. You can only kill him if you all in him near your turret, otherwise just focus on your CSing and macro because he is hard asf to kill. Rush Liandrys and you outscale him hard for 5v5, and eventually you can also kill him 1v1 but it might not be worth your ult cooldown during teamfight phase.”

Auxarcmod says “His max health damage makes this a very annoying matchup.. Ganks are quite good against as you can hold your q to stop his E. Iceborn gauntlent into him is good for this matchup. Along with taking shield bash instead of demolish.”

bricee says “skill matchup dodge his q and w and poke him really hard ”
psycho teemo by bricee | Teemo Player
Volkeran says “He is really tanky later but pre lvl 6 he should be a pinata. His Q is obvious to W, he can never jump on you with his W or you can just stunn him for free. But if you are not ahead, it will be harder to kill him. Avoid long trading him near his tower cause he can just carry you over nearly half the lane to spit you into his tower. Get the wave pushing to your side and poke him with your vitals. I advise Conquorer + DBlade start.”

TTVTobuwuyas says “Can actually be really disgusting. Dont get hit by Q. Never play under his tower after 6. Big ult on teamfight”
