Main Shen bored of losing in line phase

CrookedRoot··2 votes·1,349 views

Hi there! I’m main Shen M7 and stuff but here is a list of all the champions which I can’t do absolutely nothing against, all this champions just stomp me, out farm me, and dive me when ever they want, and I need to start roaming and abandon my top-tower to it’s faith in the second I have ulti.

Even thought, I don’t die much, most of my games I just end up dying 3 or 4 times tops, and i have tried all kind of builds and stuff but the problem is only in early and the only thing i can do is sit under tower with a large glass of diet coke and pray to god for the other player to not freeze the line.

Is anything a silver Shen can do about this? Or I just need to calm down and acept that top lane will never be balanced, and I always will be waiting desperately to reach lv 6 to run away from top and try to win the game using other resources?

The list is long and painful: Pantheon Jayse illaoi Rumble Teemo (if my jungler does not appear) Renekton Aatrox Garen Darius Urgot Kennen (if my jungler does not appear) Swain Nasus (can not deny him farm without being… well, dead) Olaf

I love the champ, I just think i'm getting frustrated in vaine, because if you all are saying that Shen can not win laning phase because it have too many counters then I accept that and I will keep playing the way i play.

I just wanted to know if i'm expecting something that is not gonna happen.

Not seeing any Shen games in your match history so I can't see what you build, but IMO Shen top is a bit like TF mid, you're not looking for kills, you're looking to roam. And I love Shen but he's definitely Hard Mode for Top Lane.

Assuming I'm playing against a highly mobile ranged damage champ (e.g. Gnar) I take Second Wind, Bone Plate and main resolve, off-tree inspire for Biscuit Delivery. For items, in this scenario I like to start with an Ancient coin and rush zz'rot portal. You need the armor, speed, and health regen. It takes awhile, but your main goal is survival until 10.

I feel you man. Im trying poppy, sion, garen but nothing is like shen :( During the whole season he got either direct or indirect nerfs. First they change(nerfed his q magic dmg), then ult nerf, then q nerf dmg, then change aftershock and resolve tree, then nerf his q slow. His top win rate was at the beggining of the season bearly peeking 52% and was nerfed patch right after. But ap trynd lasted, quinn lasted, darious lasted, sion(comet) lasted, fiora lasts, garen lasts etc. Fuck LCS. They will play him as support in some cases until they remove shiled from his R. item 3070 Shen item 3070
