Kled vs Kennen

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Kled is an early all-in fighter who must pressure Kennen to deny his ranged poke and scaling potential.
Use Kled's high lane pressure and early agency to force volatile fights and snowball before Kennen can leverage his teamfight impact.

Trading pattern

Start trades by landing (Q) to tether Kennen and commit fully when (W) is active for burst damage.
Punish Kennen immediately after he uses (E) for engage or escape, as his mobility cooldown is down.
Avoid fighting while dismounted without a remount path, as Kennen can exploit Kled's vulnerability then.

Danger windows

Respect (R) when available with flank angles as it can stun and turn fights.
Avoid extended trades when Kennen has multiple marks stacked that threaten stun.
Be cautious while dismounted before remount, as Kled is vulnerable to Kennen's poke and stuns then.

Early game

Aggressively seek level 2-3 trades using (Q) to pull Kennen and (W) burst autos to maximize damage.
Avoid extended trades when (W) is down or (Q) misses to prevent losing all-in reliability.
Keep wave long enough to chase and use remount opportunities to bait Kennen into overcommitting.

Power spikes

Level 2-3: Use (Q), (W), and (E) to force early all-ins and snowball lane dominance.
Level 6: Use (R) to engage from long range with team follow-up and create pressure Kennen must respect.
Respect Kennen's level 6 (R) area stun and flank angles by avoiding grouped fights and maintaining vision.

Win conditions

Use early all-in pressure with (Q) pulls and (W) burst to snowball lane lead and deny Kennen safe scaling.
Leverage remount threat to bait Kennen into overcommitting and punish with extended trades.
Utilize (R) to force side-lane picks or team engages, turning lane advantage into map pressure and objectives.
