Kennen isn't that OP, he needs close range, one of his main dmg sources is a skillshot that hits the 1st target and his ult compared to fiddles isnt that bad.

In a perfect scenario where kennen brings all his skills down, autoatks at the right time etc. he sure deals tons of dmg, but in a game vs a smart team, he'll have a hard time.

Imagine the enemy team has a good Blitzcrank, he would pull you away even before your E hits the first one (because you're predictable), then knock you up and use his ult - then you're in the middle of the enemy with lowered hp as a squishy AP without escape for 4 sec and your ultimate takes time to stun, if it works out you need 1s to stun 1 enemy. Or a alistar, or silence, or or or... as you need close range, you're in range for silence etc.

Also you'd come in range for champs like Scarner, Darius, Kassadin, Fiddle (3s fear+drain you wont stun fast enough to interrupt his drain or only at the end, while he has full hp and you're damaged. Or a Singed, that CCs the ... out of you.

Imo Kennen is a good balanced Champ that makes fun to play, without beeing OP.
