Missing old Shen ;-(

now he just feels clunky and weak

Dmg removed via removal of old passive. It was based off or ur health. so it was not going to be more vs tanks and less vs squishies. And it was scaled off of ur health not scaled off of theirs which may be much much much less. All dmg was magic. And much more of it. Old Q was a dmg spell. point and click. a spell not an auto attack. More quick cast combo type dmg gone. New taunt no dmg mitigation and now does physical. Old taunt mitigated dmg by 50%. Now that you do so much less quick dmg bursty comboable dmg. And one of ur only dmg spells is physical nobody really has to build armor or mr against you. They certainly don't need to build mr. Can just build for enemy adc and whatever item floats your boat. preferably an armor item like sunfire but prob not a cowl. Prior shen you might have delayed your build and got a cowl. even if mid/jungle were physical. Now who cares. also though its the style. he was a combo champ now he is an auto attack champ. he was on demand dmg mitigation at low cd. now high cd auto only mitigation with 2 spells having to be cast to block .75s of auto. Not autos. cause u prob just get one auto in anyway during the duration. don't block magic, turrets, abilities. truedmg. Old shen W low cd, spammable essentially block everything but enemy fountain laser. :(

p.s. I know ur question is old. but im in new shen sux old shen gone rant mode. wanted to answer ur question while venting :P
