Shen is complete GARBAGE

Can you tell me what the hell is this?

How the hell am I supposed to defend any teammate with a shield such as that one. I wouldnt bet anything but Im pretty sure a lvl 5 Janna shield with 0 ap is bigger than that.

Now I know Shen has huge problems all around since his design doesnt really make him an actual tank nor an actual duelist either but the one important ability he has, the core of his kit, an ultimate with one of the biggest cooldowns in the game thats completely based around keeping someone alive gives that crap of a shield? When 70% of the champs in the game can kill you in one combo rotation you think that bullcrap you call a shield is enough to keep someone alive?

Why the hell would you try to port into that? Its a shield not immortality, Then you have essentially a 2v3 with an ulting yi

And yes the bread and butter of a champs kit at level 9 is worth more shield than a GLOBAL shield with a TELEPORT at level 6.

Janna shield 70 / 105 / 140 / 175 / 210

Shen ult 175 / 350 / 525 on full health targets, 280 / 560 / 840 on 40% or less

looks like you didnt rank up your ult at level 11, so youre using the base 175 HP shield with the 60% bonus for low health making it a 280 HP shield.

Ults tend to not scale well if you dont rank them up. Like all spells. It would have been twice as strong at 560 HP if youd leveled it.

Clearly you gotta play AP shen, you think your shields are immortality

So go AP and just bask in the sick 2000+ shields

hey fellow , summoner there are two dps champions hitting the Zilean one of which being a higher level an has the ability to do true do to its target and having the red buff to top it all off, however i do agree that Shen not seen a place in meta for awhile now and it is sad i do like the idea of buffing shen due to that but his shield has the ability to pressure the map globally so the ultimate should have some counterplay and not be a save all ability though it could stand to see a buff maybe giving the target armor and magic resist to a small degree would be something that would be nice to at the very least allow your ult to finish its channel. I do wish shen was better but i dont really see any issues with this clip. it seems Zilean did not have much resistances against the type of dmg he was taking. Good luck in your future games finger crossed that shen does eventually see some viability within the meta. Also many people are saying the ult was rank one but i can see within the video it was the second rank.
