Tahm Kench vs Janna

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use (R) to isolate Janna or protect your ADC from her disengage and peel.
Control brush to deny (Q) engage angles and create hook follow-up windows.
Pressure lane space with short trades to build passive stacks and force Janna's shields early.

Trading pattern

Build three passive stacks before engaging to maximize (Q) stun threat against Janna's shield.
Hold (R) for key moments to peel or punish Janna's committed (Q) or ADC follow-up.
Avoid using (W) engage if (Q) is charged or ADC can be poked down.

Danger windows

Janna's charged (Q) knockup combined with ADC follow-up can punish overextended engages.
Her (E) shield reduces your short trade impact; avoid engaging when it's up.
Level 6 (R) can reset fights; avoid committing without ADC follow-up or vision control.

Early game

Fight for level 2 to threaten (Q) stun and disrupt Janna's shield timing.
Deny Janna brush control to limit her (Q) setup and ADC poke opportunities.
Coordinate wave crash with ADC to enable safe roams before Janna can respond.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your short trade threat with (Q) stun and Janna's shield cooldown.
Level 6 (R) allows decisive devours to isolate Janna or save your ADC from her ultimate.
First tank item boosts (E) durability, letting you absorb poke and sustain through Janna's shielded trades.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and (Q) stack pressure into denied enemy ADC positioning.
Use (R) to remove threats or protect your ADC during dragon setups and teamfights.
Roam safely after wave crashes to secure river vision and assist mid without losing ADC access.

Tip: For Tahm Kench vs Janna, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
