Garen's New Q interaction with Shen's W, DESTROYS the matchup.

Garen's Q gets blocked by Shen's W like usual but it doesn't get Removed as it used to, ~~so he will keep the movement speed~~ ~~from his Q~~ and can just hit you with it after Shen's W times out.

EDIT My bad, he always keep the movement speed.

This destroys the Shen vs Garen matchup. Shen's only way to win the lane was to bait Garen's Q and block it then hit him before you take to much damage from Garen's E. Now you try to outplay him and do so but he doesn't get affected by it and will just go ham, especially with the new changes he has gotten.

The movement speed buff on Garen's Q has always been separate from the enhanced attack. What?

Garen keeps the movement speed regardless of whether or not and when he hits with the attack.

It is just that he hit me with Q and still have the Q and hit me 3 more times while I am under my W and then after my W I get hit by Q when I try to punish.

It has been blocked but he can still use it again until it connects and deal dmg.

Shen w just needs to either

ACTUALLY SCALE IN DURATION
Have a minor rework so it blocks a certain amount of damage in the area
New ability entirely

Shen w is just...so useless except in very specific matchups
