2 small buffs is all I ask of you Riot! Hardly Noticeable

WARNING: IF YOU ARE A Shen HATER, KINDLY PLEASE MY DISCUSSION!!!

Vorpal Blade Range- 500 from 475 (I think this should be slightly bigger as it will help him a lot in the lanning phase without giving him a straight buff)

Mov. spd- 340 from 335 (I think shen should atleast share the same MS as Darius I know shen is a tank but I don't he should be that slow, this too will slightly push his power without a straight buff.)

But I also feel he needs some sort of straight buff:

VB- 65/105/145/185/225 +65% Feint- 65/105/145/185/225 +65% (not necessary) Shadow Dash- 55/95/135/175/215 +55% AP 0r at least 55/90/125/160/195 +55%

I don't really like AP scaling on shen, because he still won't do enough damage compared to other AP and his feint becomes a gamble ability all about timing. So this is not taken to account as a standard build for most champs, and is frustrating that you will get niche results for building his scalings. Something needs to be done, playing a Tank should not be risky, playing assasins like Zed should be.

On Another Note.. awesome skin concept for shen attached below

I support them, a lot of consistency changes

For reference, Yasuo Q is the same range as Shen's Q

I know and that is just stup paired with yasuo higher ms. Poking with vorpal blade will always put shen in harms way. Every me lee champ has some ranged ability nowadays. Your poke is suppose to be safe.

I most definitely agree, Shen needs some buffs, no matter how slight they are.

No, Shen's fine. For a tank he puts out some mad damage and all he needed was that buff he got and now he's perfect.

Honestly if anything they should buff his W and nerf his Q some. Not the damage really but the regeneration. Currently his counterplay is actually lacking pretty hard in lane as he just sustains off pots/health regen and buffing his W/making it scale with HP instead of AP would increase interaction in his play by making him more reliant on proper W usage to block damage.

Just a heads up, I've been playing Shen a LOT recently and I've had my share of good, great and bad games. He most definitely does not need a buff as of currently, but he definitely needs some changes. He's currently actually pretty oppressive with his natural healing in lane since he's basically the only top laner flat out allowed to bring ignite (most other top laners sacrifice map pressure).

That skin concept looks like it was lifted from Warframe...

335 is on par with ranged champions and tanks. Darius is not very effective as a tank, he is effective as a bruiser. 340 is a good move speed for him seeing that a majority of other top lane champions already have more than him.

Pretty sure that "Skin concept art" at the bottom is just WarFrame fan art.
