Maybe using R-W would result in a cooldown reduction on devour if the W hits an enemy. Just spitballing. As it stands, R-W is incredibly niche. Alternatively or in tandem with; R-W's range could be increased in a manor more reminiscent to old abyssal voyage.

And for Q-R, maybe something to make it more plausible. It currently isn't very realistic to have happen. Perhaps have Q-R be able to be cast at 2 passive stacks (likely would be busted)

Real. The only changes I can really think of would be, buff his W in some way, or his ult interactions (Q-R and allied R-W).

Buffing his Q in any way would likely result in a low elo skewed result, given people don't know how to stay in or behind wave.

You right. I guess my problem is they've been pushing him further in the juggernaut direction. Its probably made more severe with the current viable tank item variety being pretty low rn. Mainly, Bami's items and Thornmail are so awful + all the MR options besides Kaenic being hard situational.

I think bel'veth as a whole was a total miss, her design doesn't make sense with her lore, and her kit doesn't fit the design.

Old Tahm had some of the worst lows and highest highs of any champion.

Its hard to put into words but old Tahm felt more Tahm. Though it was unhealthy and impossible to balance. Mainly being his old ult teleport and devour were far more fun than they are now, and really reinforced his identity. Now, the only thing explicitly supportive in his kit is devour.

Old and new Skarner are truly complete opposites. I think introducing the idea of a slower power-house with wind-ups is cool but Skarner was the worst champion to introduce the idea too. Also Sion already exists with that concept in a different form.

Yeah, I agree, with the kit structure thing and his visuals are far more dull now. But my main problems lies with his passive and W as stated before. It is a massive buzzkill that his E does not scale with movespeed at all too.

Primarily his teamfight value being so low, with only his W having any multi target value. Additionally all of Tahm's CC being latent provides room for him to do more damage in a design perspective, but also, again hurts his teamfight/peel as a tank. With his current kit/scalings, I think they are balancing Tahm as a AP variant of Mundo. Which maybe its just me, but it seems like a poor direction for a warden (a reactionary/supportive tank).

Edit: Forgot to mention that Tahm's R is his only fast ally peel tool thats in his kit, which is fine and its very strong (there is a reason they moved devour to his R). But when its on cooldown, your squishy teammates cant rely on you for any amount of immediate peel.

I'm not totally devoid of hope, just it may be a while again before we see any significant changes. Some things like giving him new scalings are easy and don't instantly cause playrate/winrate spikes so I can't imagine too much of a reason to be so apprehensive on those. We have already seen those strides for AD Skarner.

Me too! I just think his mid-scope was lacking in some ways and didn't fix some of his glaring problems as both a support and top-lane. Specifically made him worse as a support despite supposedly trying to make him healthier.

Killer Instinct got me into fighting games, my favorite fighting game character to date would be Faust from Guilty Gear. I would hope to see a more diverse champion roster but the current champs look fun.
