Was it a success or a failure?He has pretty much recieved NO buffs or any real attention after his rework . Personally I think its a mixture of both. In some aspects Shen is better but in others he is STILL flawed or uninteresting.

MY problems with Shen and the main problem with Shen and the reasoning behind him being selected for a rework was that he... 1.was mechanically boring and had low interaction thanks to his generic abilities 2.laning patteren was comprised of Q spam poking for not unlike Katarina Pantheon Vladimir 3. he felt like a ult/taunt bot and nothing else

After the Rewok shens problems have been fixed but also he feels broken in other ways

My problems with new Shen are... 1.He still feels like a ult/taunt bot 2.W "dodge" is dissapointing in every concievable way shen did not even recieve any new animations 3. Attempt to force Shen into the supportive role instead of keeping him the badass "1v1 me bro I can outtank you" ninja 4. no ranged tools but still has somewhat unsatisfying unscaling easily kiteable damage

whats the communitys general consensus on Shen?

I think hes a lot weaker. They nerfed his health, armor, taunt and cooldowns. Even though hes full melee. Has no sustain, that passive is some useless shit. It has great scaling but the delay is horrible. He can do more damage in a way, but dies a lot faster. Old Shen had a more bursty/attrition combo which made him last a lot longer than this Shen could ever dream of.
