Janna vs Tahm Kench

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Hold brush control to deny Tahm Kench's engage and protect your ADC's positioning.
Use (Q) and (R) to disrupt Tahm Kench's all-in attempts and support ADC disengage.
Prioritize shielding your ADC's key trades to enable safe poke and scaling.

Trading pattern

Hold (Q) to punish Tahm Kench's predictable engage or (R) for fight resets.
Shield your ADC's trades to absorb return damage from (Q) stacks.
Deny brush access to reduce Tahm Kench's hook angle and limit his engage windows.

Danger windows

Respect Tahm Kench when his passive stacks reach three, enabling (Q) stun and (R).
Avoid standing near brush when (W) is off cooldown to prevent knockup engages.
Be cautious when (R) is available, as he can isolate your ADC or remove threats.

Early game

Track level 2 to time (Q) and shield combos with your ADC for stronger trades.
Maintain lane space near your ADC to prevent Tahm Kench from stacking passive on them.
Use wave state to keep ADC safe and avoid overextension against Tahm Kench's melee threat.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your shield and knockup, enabling stronger peel and disengage.
Level 3 completes your kit, maximizing peel and (Q) threat to counter Tahm Kench engages.
Level 6 (R) provides fight reset and disengage to protect ADC from (R).

Win conditions

Use (Q) and brush control to deny Tahm Kench's engage and enable ADC follow-up.
Roam after wave crashes only when ADC is safe and river vision denies Tahm Kench's roam.
Convert lane control into vision around dragon and use (R) to reset fights and protect scaling ADC.
