Why remove Shen's AP Ratios?
I used to play some AP shen and it was really fun. https://gyazo.com/6bf413fec98c9955ae1028918dad1ac7
Just look at the difference.

Better question, why did they make shen boring? his old kit was 100x more fun.
Because his intended build doesn't provide any AP?
I have actually ran nashor's tooth on Shen to improve the % HP damage from his Q.
im pretty sure they nerfed shen a bit that way so you don't see him in lcs and shit.
I only built Nashors for the attack speed and AP to raise his %HP damage. It's a decent item to get your attacks off after you E>Q>W in without missing any, and it gives you a pretty nice extra chunk of HP% damage. Although I've also usually built at least one other AP item when I did build Nashors, making it basically give you up to around 10% HP damage per auto. That's 20% of their health while taunted and another free 10% most likely if you can keep up with them to auto them a third time. As long as they don't build MR against you. Add Lich Bane into that equation and it's quite a bit of free damage. Or if you want HP you can rush RoA starting off. I think Lich Bane is better for actual damage though. Move speed from it is also nice, as well as CDR.
