Shen gets auto-nerfed if he hits a 49% win rate or is picked in the LCS.

They're completely different champions. Of course a champ with a global teleport and huge shield and taunt is going to get nerfed when he's too strong in the lcs. He just has such a big impact on games that picking him basically guarantees that your lanes win trades because of the pressure of his ult.

Shen got nerfed because his ultimate is so powerful.

Lee doesn't get nerfed because he's situational and an LCS favorite, and he keeps the tanky jungle meta from happening.

Stop making posts about shen then if you know the answer...

I didn't say the nerfs were in the correct area, and they certainly weren't justified given the other champions being played. But it's all good now since he got buffed in the correct area.

Also, stop making posts about Lee Sin, by your logic, since you always seem to claim to know the answer.

You're implying Riot favoritism in every single one of these posts.

Shen got nerfed because his Q spam %HP damage on autos is over-bearing in a lane filled with tanky champions, his W has insane utility (it invalidates the majority of physical damage in fights), and his E has great initiation, especially since the E->Flash cheese still exists.

His R just makes him overwhelming as a champion to deal with in a fair way. There's a reason they gutted him, and its not just his R.

On top of having the worst stats in the game, the longest cooldown on his ultimate, having double the energy punishments as any other energy champion, having a position requirement on his Q to even deal meaningful damage, and having a doubled E CD with the rework...

Yeah, and W only lasts for 1.75 seconds and is on a 16 second CD. I can make Alistar's old heal sound stupidly broken by saying that "it heals everything allied to you in an area, is spammable, and gets a reduced CD by dying units." But the heal isn't that strong unless you build him AP. Numbers were what was tuned, don't overinflate Shen's power when in reality it's not that much as you imply it is.
