It is true, for me, revolves around the addiction for League, the lack of time and patience to expertise it - that pekin does so well, and of course, that sweet lack of instinctive masculinity that our fella portrays. It's just a sweet cocktail of peace and serenity! Ah!

One TK mechanic many people are unaware about is that you can swallow people at a really good range. It needs a little set up, so you don't see it very often, but it's always fun to catch people off guard by eating them after they flash over a wall or something. You need to either have full Taste stacks on the target, or be 1 stack from full. If you land a Q and then instantly press R you'll swallow them from up to max Q range. When you reach max stacks you're typically in close combat or have Q on cd, but it's great fun when the stars do allign.
A good tip for Tahm Kench is to learn the ult timing and let it expire instead of manually spitting them out. This way you can buffer the Q so it hits them whilst they're still in the middle of being spat out. This slow will then basically guarantee your W knock up. You have a delay before you can Q otherwise
I never notice you going for it but I'm pretty sure you can Devour from far away when you stun with Q. Like, your Q becomes a hook if you press R at the right time. Only hook in the game that gets extra range, though the passive makes it pretty conditional.
You can buffer your Q when spiting an enemy out of your R for an undodgeable Q. You can use your W to help with TK poor wave clear when you don't need to escape or engage.
Curious to hear your thoughts on building abysmal Mask in the 2nd game vs. Rumble. I feel like the MR would be great for surviving Rumble & Udyr damage, health keeps the passive scaling train going, and the item passive helps make up for the lack of AP (plus it helps Vex), and you get a bit of haste on top. I'm guessing Riftmaker just scales Tahm's damage too well to push it 3rd item?
PEKIN you should play cockroach Udyr top - full healing with Ravenous, BT and Spirit visage combined with W is full hp off one wave - omar has a guide on it :)
if you end up playing a bit more tk, try putting a second point in E at level 3 and your first point in W at level 4. some tk mains do this to help w his weak early. ghost and approach velocity also tend to be more consistent
pekin just to clear it up i dont think you can eat someone that late versus syndra ult now that it has an execute on it. i think thats what happened in game one.
@@PekinWoof i think he got executed during the animation at least that’s what it looked like without slowing it down because you started to ult and then he just died
It is good, but you have to build it first item to be worth, which slows down your heartsteel stacks which are very important for damage and size which gives range.
Rylais on Kench is subpar, Protobelt gives the same stats with a better passive. Rabbadons deathcap is good but only as a final item, and warmogs isn’t that great for a mainly ap Tahm build, very good for tank though.
Always enjoy some good Thomas games. If you start to narrow your champ pool for the climb I won't be mad, just sayin'. Variety is fun and probably better for the views but I honestly just like watching the progress even if it's the same champ
Yeah I agree, but if they are mainly melee enemies and you don’t need the sustain in lane, then grasp can add some good damage later in the game. But they weren’t so fleet or the other movement rune ( the blue one, I can’t remember the name) would have been better.
48:29 pekin is tonguing everyone to get jinx excited....
Frisky, if I say so myself
So many tongue related innuendos were made that I'm not even going to list them
It’s honestly impressive that he actually managed to keep a straight face while explaining his strategy and ability usage lmao.
i always have to steel myself for the inevitably raunchy-sounding commentary whenever tahm makes an appearance
Unbench the Kench
Unclog the frog
Unroll the tadpole
Unload the toad
Uninhibit the ribbit
Permit the Kermit
Poetry unappreciated by our lord, pekin of dogs.
Isn't he a catfish
He's clearly a catfish, much like every woman who ever talked to you online

9:18 "I don't know if she [Quinn] had ultimate or not" - Mr. Woof
I’m thinking somehow he confused her with Kayle for a moment?
@@conelpa8388 I reckon he probably meant flash?
@@Evvins Yeah I meant flash
Please don't worry about it. If you try to stop making that kind of error it'll hurt your gameplay :(
Hey everybody, welcome to the next commentary. Today we are playing Tahm Kench top lane in the unranked to challenger climb.
Spoilers man!
uh, I really think tahm kench is a pretty cool champion
Because he has one of the most unique passives in the game with the ratios, uhm
So we're gonna be trying to build around that, because I just think it's a lot of fun to do
I also think that it's pretty viable as well
I've been watching PekinWoof on a daily basis for a while now.

Back to lux laser comparison ahaha
I was doing it in my head and then he actually did it. Made me smile. :)
The Kench has been unbenched!

You really tongue'd down that nocturne
why did i audibly say at 11:30 pekin tongue could oneshot my backwave...i think im down bad frfr.
Urgot to be kidding me, you have some top laners left to play still
Since the toplane series came out i am watching on a daily basis again! really nice
Heartsteel stacks sound soooo satisfying 🥰
The jhin from the first game is the ashe in the second
Pekin giveth and taketh LP away
Thanks for the upload !
I never notice you going for it but I'm pretty sure you can Devour from far away when you stun with Q. Like, your Q becomes a hook if you press R at the right time. Only hook in the game that gets extra range, though the passive makes it pretty conditional.
You also forgot to mention that you can eat (ult) from afar just after using your tongue (if the 3 stacks are on ofc)
You can buffer your Q when spiting an enemy out of your R for an undodgeable Q.
You can use your W to help with TK poor wave clear when you don't need to escape or engage.
Curious to hear your thoughts on building abysmal Mask in the 2nd game vs. Rumble. I feel like the MR would be great for surviving Rumble & Udyr damage, health keeps the passive scaling train going, and the item passive helps make up for the lack of AP (plus it helps Vex), and you get a bit of haste on top.
I'm guessing Riftmaker just scales Tahm's damage too well to push it 3rd item?
I’m calling it now pekin gonna make a rumble video next
This was one of your better videos imo. I just wish these games lasted longer than 2-3 items so we could see Kench at maximum badassness.
48:26: Yes, you getting Jinx excited with your tongue was a really good strategy.
PEKIN you should play cockroach Udyr top - full healing with Ravenous, BT and Spirit visage combined with W is full hp off one wave - omar has a guide on it :)
You can also Q + R on a champion with max stacks so you dont have to be standing next to them to eat them.
Would rod of ages be better than heartsteel into ranged matchups?
if you end up playing a bit more tk, try putting a second point in E at level 3 and your first point in W at level 4. some tk mains do this to help w his weak early. ghost and approach velocity also tend to be more consistent
Can you play viego top?
Speaking of Viego, can you try Viego top? Riot buffed it to try and bring him into lane again
You can do a super fast ult combo using Protobelt active as an auto rest.
Nice t-shirt.
Still waiting for lethality Yorick btw :)
Is it just me, or do the recordings look less saturated on the colors? compared to the streams the vids look duller color-wise now.
pekin just to clear it up i dont think you can eat someone that late versus syndra ult now that it has an execute on it. i think thats what happened in game one.
I believe it actually does remove the entire Syndra ult, I just misclicked
@@PekinWoof i think he got executed during the animation at least that’s what it looked like without slowing it down because you started to ult and then he just died
Does eating them fom range with a Q+R is still possible?
Yeah I think so
have you played sett? or are you already too high elo to want to play him
How long did it take till pekin got the first Heartsteel stack?
5 minutes.
May be RoA is better against ranged matchups?
You also get from the component damage taken gained as mana, and mana spent gained as health.
It is good, but you have to build it first item to be worth, which slows down your heartsteel stacks which are very important for damage and size which gives range.
Will you play Braum top? I heard it's pretty good
Wonder how rylai’s over protobelt and rabadon+warmogs last would feel
Rylais does not make sense for the Kench.
Rylais on Kench is subpar, Protobelt gives the same stats with a better passive. Rabbadons deathcap is good but only as a final item, and warmogs isn’t that great for a mainly ap Tahm build, very good for tank though.
phae rush viktor is an option i do it into rnaged toplane
Peky poo wearing a shirt with a pic of himself on it, crazy
Always enjoy some good Thomas games.
If you start to narrow your champ pool for the climb I won't be mad, just sayin'. Variety is fun and probably better for the views but I honestly just like watching the progress even if it's the same champ
my poor quinn didnt stand a chance ;____;
Nice one !
When is new champ on PBE and is pekin gonna play her? He would be nasty at her.
Next week I think
quinns that think the tk matchup is free > any other matchup as kench
22:22
Did this become a pickup channel?
that trist was not okay
Wow double Nexus explosion! Love those, it's been a while since I saw one on video.
Nice i ask for this on your stream.
we haven't seen manbearpig
All hail the algorithm!
As a tahm main I feel like grasp is useless vs Quinn and rumble since u can’t trade autos fleet is much better
Yeah I agree, but if they are mainly melee enemies and you don’t need the sustain in lane, then grasp can add some good damage later in the game.
But they weren’t so fleet or the other movement rune ( the blue one, I can’t remember the name) would have been better.
quinn can just e the tahm W no? also arent you suppsoed to max e second
Level it W gives range on it which is good for escapes and long range engages
Nice video, pekin! It would be nice to see you playing Illaoi.
Gigaroam @ 38:47 Pog
Protobelt has always given HP Pekin, u ok bro? xd
is it me or your voice sounds different
you should do a rumble game!
Pekin.... Cosmic. Drive. And Abyssal Mask for an MR item.
"My tongue is huge."
tongue those like and subscribe buttons
Combo 23 of catching pekin early
Streak 2
Chicken wing supply is over
Why does your video seems unnaturally quiet? You're clearly not playing the league music. But has it always been this quiet?
He also turns off champ voices
38:09 to translate: “if you’re gonna play aggro, at least be good at the game first”
Love seeing ranged toplaners get crushed
Let's GOOOOOOO
I prefer E max 2nd, but idk shit so I could just be trolling in all my tahm games
E max isn’t bad, but in lane vs only one enemy, levelling W is better. I usually go 3 points W then max E.
@@mistakenot2462 I mostly play him in ARAMs, so I suppose that influenced my decision.
@@IdkwhymynamecantjustbeCody yeah, max E makes the most sense for Aram.
@50:04 Heimerdinger time >:)
Soooooo… Kennen when??
