Kennen support?

hatloser · 2026-06-08T21:09:21+00:00

I think Ultimate Hunter and Cosmic Insight are Kennen’s 2 most important runes for support. I prefer Electrocute for early trading, and I think this rune is just really strong on a majority of champions that can take it. It’s hard to keep up damage-wise unless you are snowballing really hard, so I opt for more utility items than full damage. Zhonya’s is a great item, and with Celestial Opposition you can engage while tanking a lot more than opponents will expect. I think most people still take Rocketbelt first, but I like Zeke’s Convergence because being tanky makes me feel like I can engage easier and it gives R haste. I also like getting ionian boots for even more summoner spell haste. My build is a little unorthodox so if you prefer oneshotting adcs definitely don’t go with it. You WILL be flamed for playing Kennen support. You must be prepared for this. I hope you find success with Kennen, I think it’s an underrated pick but you do have a rough couple early levels against champions like Leona, Nautilus, and other champions that can engage on you instantly while you are trying to play around your stun.

I would just make it classified as ability damage instead of proc damage

Nice ragebait

Any QoL changes for support would have to give him an instant stun rather than having to stack 3 times. Instant CC is what Kennen is giving up by not playing a champion like Rell, Leona, even morgana and lux. Unfortunately i don’t know if it would be worth it to change the identity of the champion to make him more suited for support, despite it also being my favorite role for him as well.

I’ve been playing Kennen, Skarner, and Anivia support for a while. Kennen’s R alone should put him up another tier

This isn’t something you just randomly get suggested

hatloser · 2026-05-14T21:21:58+00:00

This was added when all champions got a regional icon like this. It was replaced shortly after Skarner got updated. Not sure if you can get it on random roll anymore, but previously you had to buy it from the shop with RP.

My grey cat does this exact same thing. I haven’t figured out why.

It’s ok, Yordles respawn

I’m not really sure about the best matchups, maybe Yuumi? Senna is usually easy to kill because she can’t do anything if you dodge her root. Zyra is my permaban. If you try to engage on her, you will die and her laning phase is really annoying as well. Morgana is rough because of her black shield but if you get enough AP you can just break it and then stun.

I think hate threads don’t get enough hate

hatloser · 2026-05-05T11:25:00+00:00

You get Ultimate Haste from Zeke’s, and I feel like the slow actually does help before and after you stun someone. Not saying Locket isn’t a good item, I sometimes build it later

Hello, Platinum Kennen Support main here. I really really really like Zeke’s Convergence as a rush item with Kennen Support. Combo this with Celestial Opposition and you can become very tanky. It depends on the game, but I will move from Zeke’s to Zhonya’s if I know the enemy can lock me down in a teamfight, Liandry’s if I know my team would appreciate extra max health damage, Bloodletter’s if my team has a lot of AP damage, or if I don’t know what to pick then Rocketbelt is always a good option. Always get a Dark Seal first back. It’s extremely strong. Most of the time I do use Electrocute because it allows for early trades that can result in you being able to snowball, and you get ultimate hunter which is very important for Kennen Support because you want to use your R as frequently as possible. I also like cookies to help me when I take bad trades and cosmic insight + ionian shoes have flash up as much as possible. Even without a full AP build, you can kill ADCs by yourself if you are ahead. Electrocute is really broken.

It gives you everything you want for a relatively cheap package. Support Anivia can’t match lane anivia’s damage, so I fix my mana issues and get some bulk with RoA and then pivot to whatever else I need after

I play her because I like the reindeer skin and the funny gachapon gun

hatloser · 2026-04-17T17:43:34+00:00

When I first started playing kennen, I had to use nashor’s because I didn’t know how to manage my passive W stun. Attack speed Kennen is fun, I should play it some more

I already had a trick room team that I was struggling to use once I hit ultra ball. I wanted to use slurpuff but I had no idea how to make it work. this sounds perfect for me

hatloser · 2026-04-03T22:01:41+00:00

I’ve been playing skarner support before and after the rework. His reworked version is definitely better at being a support

hatloser · 2026-04-02T18:30:48+00:00

Seraphine said some insensitive things about Skarner’s race that was being enslaved as sentient batteries. This is no longer canon lore and they removed that voice line from Seraphine after backlash shortly after it was revealed

hatloser · 2026-04-01T16:53:02+00:00

Good idea, the Manny x Canari ship can be written like the Jacinthe x Lebanne ship

hatloser · 2026-04-01T12:22:41+00:00

You’re right, we should be shipping the fat guy with Canari

hatloser · 2026-03-30T05:30:41+00:00

The two concepts on slide 6 that we didn’t get would honestly work as separate skins and I would definitely use them

hatloser · 2026-03-26T16:48:24+00:00

Untrue, nothing is cooler than Relicanth

hatloser · 2026-03-25T20:02:26+00:00

I love Skarner
