Tahm Kench is a champion in League of Legends, a smooth-talking river demon whose deep voice and theatrical disdain made him a favourite for short reaction clips. Short excerpts of his voice lines circulate widely on soundboards, in streams and in edited gaming videos, where a single word can carry a whole joke without context. This disgusted delivery fits that format perfectly, because it is instantly recognisable to League players and still readable to viewers who have never played the game. Its brevity keeps it useful for memes, fails and commentary years after the character became popular.
