How to play it

✓

Bait his E

Kennen presses E right before your taunt connects to outrun it: bait it out, then taunt.

✓

Land a taunt

If you ever get a taunt on him you hardwin the trade: especially since he'll have burned E dodging it.

✓

Start E to space

Start E and use it to space better than him, or chunk him early if he's tauntable: but miss it and you're in trouble.

✕

Never be predictable with your taunt: he'll use E's movement speed to outrun it.
