Who Wins

  • You lose most straight fights pre-6 due to Tahm's sustain and tankiness, but can win through short burst trades with Q-auto combos.
  • Post-6 you have better kill potential if you can avoid his Q knockup during your R channel, though extended fights still favor him.

How to Trade

  • Focus on quick Q-auto-E trades then immediately disengage before he can stack his passive on you.
  • Use W to dodge his Q when he tries to engage, then counter-trade while his abilities are on cooldown.

Wave Control

  • Look to shove and roam frequently, as you can't match Tahm's sustain in extended laning phases.
  • Freeze the wave when ahead to deny him farm, but be ready to break freezes quickly if he threatens all-ins with his passive stacks.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't get baited into extended trades where he can stack his passive - his W stun will turn any prolonged fight in his favor.
  • Avoid using your W clone predictably, as good Tahm players will hold their Q to interrupt your R or catch you after the clone expires.
