Shen having 6 CS before minions spawn

Kalkulated··5 votes·989 views

So i was playing pantheon top lane against a Shen, and like most people i press tab to organize lane opponents. When i organize Shen and myself at the top part of the tab menu i saw that Shen had CS before the 1:40 mark. Possible Shen bug or just bug in general?

I played Shen not too long ago. My teammates were telling me I had OP CS. I had no idea what they were talking about until I looked. Sure enough, I had cs before anything on the map spawned.

This is a seperate issue, but it tilts me that they still haven't fixed the issue with jungle CS some times not being counted on the CS counter. So it's very difficult to compare CS with the enemy jungler, since their CS counter bounces up and down a lot (as sometimes it will show their jungle CS, sometimes it will only show the lane minions they've killed). I suppose it doesn't matter as much anymore, since new krugs and raptors give a huge amount of CS, more than killing blue, red, gromp, and both scuttles. So a jungler that does krugs/raptors will have a huge CS lead without necessarily having a gold lead over one that focuses on scuttlecrabs and gromp.

This isn't a bug. This was changed a while ago so that you couldn't keep track of the enemy jg location by counting his cs. If you saw his cs start at 5 and then go to 6, you would know he's doing raptors then red/blue. That's too much info that can also be gathered by wardingredients properly. With camp timers now, it makes it even easier to keep track. Having another way to know where someone is in the map, at least in the early game, without wards or any risk is not balanc

It's not an early game thing though. You will sometimes see a jungler having like 5 CS in the late game for a few mins until it updates showing all his jungle CS too.

Besides, they added the scrying plants and jungle timers for red and blue. I don't think Riot is discouraging tracking/invading the enemy jungle.

Did he have full hp? Was he late to the lane? Although i would think the golems take too long to take 6 as a toplaner. The cs count is buggy in general, its really annoying.

He ninja'd a few creeps from your nexus before they even spawned.

No wonder he got nerfed.
