How to play as Tahm Kench

Keep Abyssal Dive(W) to escape when Olaf activates Ragnarok(R); do not dive onto him while his R is available, and look to re-engage after it ends.

Use Tongue Lash(Q) and a Grasp attack for short trades, then back away instead of committing to a long fight while Olaf's R is up.

While Olaf R is active and he keeps attacking, he is immune to disables, so Tahm Kench Q's stun and W's knockup cannot stop his advance.
