Petition to Scrap New Shen Kit.
I know there are going to be mixed feelings about this thread as there are already mixed feelings about the new Shen. I think this needs to be done though for a number of different reasons. After reading about the new Rework as well as seeing how he plays on PBE and hearing the outcry from a massive amount of people I personally and I think quite a few other fellow players are not happy with this rework at all.
-
Removing old Q has now destroyed not only his ability to sustain and ranged farm/harass toplane but almost certainly pushed him out of top lane all together with the current Meta.
-
Making him pure Melee also destroy's almost any chance with the exception of a few matchup's for him to be viable toplane because of the new amazing creep block.
-
Taking away 50% damage reduction from taunted targets is also a major blow because now he is even less viable for support shen with the removal of his ranged and sustain.
-
Adding another dodge mechanic back into the game.... Why Rito? Why?! This was removed from the game years ago for very very good reason.
-
The effing Spirit Sword..... First it makes no sense on Shen.... Like ever at all... I cant... It makes zero sense for some random spirit GIANT SWORD to be following around a.... Ninja! It also feels and looks just way too random and out of place on him as a character as well. Lets not also forget that the Q skill itself is just very poorly thought out. The mechanics of the skill itself seems like some ripped off form of Ori's kit.

While I could go on I think those 5 points covered the main points of why this rework needs a rework or needs to be scrapped all together. But there is something that should be pointed out for fairness sake. While I am a fan off Shen's new VU.... I find it highly unfair that Surgeon Shen gets crocks and yet our beloved Graves is still without his trusty Cigar..... Rito Pls...
