Shen Rework is the best rework Riot has done in a long time.

this coming from a top laner who 1) played since the beta and 2) played high diamond elo for seasons 4 and 5.

I hated the old shen. He was boring. He always forced a stalemate. He literally could only be played one way in EVERY MATCH-UP.

Q, Q, Q, auto attack, negate damage, Q, Q, Q, auto attack, negate damage, Q, Q, Q, ........ how can anyone look at that and think "what a clever design"

What I like about the new shen:

Rewarded for being good you can't play like a mentally challenged person and get away with it anymore much better at laning against ranged champions

(explanations) New shen can make excellent combinations of abilities, like, dash>taunt>Q for the long distance SKILL SHOT>boom attack speed>win trade Now I feel like I'm actually making a difference when I use my ultimate, because I'm shielding my ally, then shielding ALL my allies, then hard CC'ing the enemy, and doing damage to boot.

I don't understand the complaints, oh wait, yes I do, because low elo players will cry over everything.
