    An Acquired Taste

    Innate: Tahm Kench's basic attacks on-hit and Tongue Lash are empowered to deal (+ 1.25% AP per 100 bonus health) (+ 4% of his bonus health) bonus magic damage and apply a stack of An Acquired Taste against enemy champions for 5 seconds, refreshing on subsequent hits and stacking up to 3 times. Stacks expire one by one every 0.67 seconds when the duration ends. Tongue Lash and Devour gain additional effects against enemies with 3 stacks, consuming them all.

    Tongue Lash

    Magic

    Active: Tahm Kench lashes his tongue in the target direction that deals magic damage to the first enemy hit and slows them by 50% for 2 seconds. If this hits an enemy champion, Tahm Kench also heals himself. An Acquired Taste Bonus: The target is stunned for 1.5 seconds. Devour can be cast during Tongue Lash at no cost to pull the target to Tahm Kench before swallowing them. Tahm Kench is unable to move, attack, or cast Abyssal Dive or Devour on a different target while his tongue is in flight. Tongue Lash's range and travel speed can be increased by Tahm Kench's size.

    Abyssal Dive

    Magic

    Active: Tahm Kench channels for 1.35 seconds as he dives into the waters to emerge at the target location, granting sight of the area during the channel. Upon completion of the channel, Tahm Kench blinks to the target location after a 0.15-second delay, dealing magic damage to nearby enemies and knocking them up and stunning them for 1 second. If at least one enemy champion is hit, 40% of Abyssal Dive's mana cost as well as a percentage of its cooldown are refunded. Enemies can see the indicator for Tahm Kench's destination after he has channeled for 0.75 seconds, if they have sight of the area. Tahm Kench remains unable to act for 0.65 seconds after the blink.

    Thick Skin

    Passive: Tahm Kench stores a portion of the post-mitigation damage he takes as grey health on his health bar, increased while there are at least 2 nearby visible enemy champions either dead or alive. He can store up to 300% of his maximum health. While Thick Skin is not on cooldown, and after 4 seconds without taking damage, Tahm Kench rapidly consumes his grey health to restore of the amount, healing for 10% of his maximum health every 0.25. Active: Tahm Kench converts his current grey health into a shield that lasts for 2.5 seconds.

    Devour

    Active: Tahm Kench abducts the target champion, pulling them to him over the cast time and then swallowing them to carry them in his belly for up to 3 seconds. While inside, the target is attached to Tahm Kench and is rendered untargetable and displacement immune. Devour can only be cast on enemies with 3 stacks of An Acquired Taste. If the target is an ally, they become unable to act and are granted a shield, which decays in strength by 50 every 0.25 seconds after they are Regurgitate. Tahm Kench will also gain 60% bonus movement speed for 3 seconds and is unable to cast movement spells besides Abyssal Dive while an ally is inside of his belly. After 1 second, Tahm Kench can cast Regurgitate while a target is inside of his belly, and automatically does so after the duration. The swallowed ally can also input a movement command to force Tahm Kench to cast Regurgitate in a target direction of their choice, unless they are immobilized. An Acquired Taste Bonus: The target is suppressed during Devour's cast time and while attached. Tahm Kench will also be grounded and slowed by 40% under those same conditions. If Tahm Kench is performing Abyssal Dive, Regurgitate will not automatically cast until after he finishes Abyssal Dive effects.

    Regurgitate

    Magic

    Active: Tahm Kench detaches the swallowed champion from himself and spits them out in the target direction. If they are an enemy, he deals magic damage to them at the end of the displacement. Tahm Kench is unable to act for 0.4 seconds after casting Regurgitate. If Regurgitate was cast automatically, Tahm Kench spits the target out in his facing direction.

    Magic Damage
    100 / 250 / 400 (+ 15% (+ 7% per 100 AP) of the target's maximum health)
