Tip

If your allies are hit with Bone Skewer (Q) and Phantom Undertow (E), Tahm Kench can use Devour [W] to protect them before reaching level 6. After reaching level 6 however, Pyke’s Death from Below (R) makes it meaningless to protect allies after they receive damage. Focus on managing health and avoiding Pyke’s abilities altogether.
