Alright, for once in my life I'm going to do this.

#I'm finally tired of talking about shitty nerfs to Shen.

It happened, so what? Riot doesn't listen, so suck it up and live with it. At the end of the day I'm still going to play him. Even if Riot makes his ultimate a 5 minute cooldown at all ranks (Take notes, Riot, next patch notes let's go), I'll play him.

You know why? Because he's the champion that I play. Tanky ninja that can duel? Global ultimate? Fucking sign me up. He looks cool, he plays well, he's outclassed by most other tanks but it's still really fun to play him.

So for those wondering what this shitty Bronze Shen main is gonna do now that Riot nerfed his Shenpai, it's shut my mouth and enjoy those new chromas.

And I recommend to you supposed "mains" who stop playing the moment they're nerfed to stop kidding yourselves. You're worse than the meta sheep who flock to the greenest grass because so-and-so team used it and it was OP.

So if you ever see this badass motherf*cker in his Silver 5 promos in top, you bet your ass I'm gonna pick Shen into Darius.

It's about god damn time to nut up and shut up.

Sincerely, a Bronze Shen main

Tl;dr: Fuck it. Let's do this.

I'm not your typical Bronze player. I have ascended beyond your typical Bronze player. I am a Super Bronze.

In all reality I'm often disgusted with the self-centeredness of most of my teammates down here in Bronze. Teamwork is an illusion and shunned down here a lot.

Shen looks like a TOTAL boss in game...

sadly, his playstyle doesn't suit me. I wish he had Malphite's kit instead (with a tracking shuriken attack instead of a rolling piece of earth and a blink knock-up engage with the same Malph range)

I did not stopped playing Gnar because the Fevor, Gnar and Frozen Mallet nerfs, in fact, I kinda avoid FM now (but is like avoid fire while working with rockets, you don't go far) and I not gonna cry and said that mid season is gonna make him worse. the reason I stopped playing him and started to use other champions more, like Fiora, Poppy, Maokai, Rumble, Ashe (come on, I play the champ before he goes meta) is very simple, I don't support people saying that I am the worse Gnar they have seam today. beside, I like to play him when I am happy, just once I was feeling blue, (more blue because miss hiting the first wave) then I got a kill. so, in the end I was so hyped... 11/0/6 hyped. any way. that's why I don't play Gnar as much.

on Shen, well, he need love, like yasuo, because both have problems (usually yasuo is bad against melee champions, ranged you know) or Ryze. also, he is a cool guy, who has a cool arch enemy (more cool that zed?) and a nice kit, so he just need the right adjust to be awesome.

that said, good luck with those buff, maybe is gonna work just right. unlike my main, who never need buffs, just a Item change, to get out of control.

I have played Shen for most of my games. I have 100K mastery points on him (it doesn't sound like a lot but i cant play much due to university, and id prob have over 500K because of how much I played before mastery points came out). I have played Shen into Darius and I will continue to do so, he is my main and as far as I can tell I haven't found I like to play more than him. Cheers to you Melledoneus for being so passionate about Shen, and I hope you will continue to enjoy him as much as I do.

The E buff has the potential to be pretty substantial. It used to be wider (particularly at the end points), and it was a huge nerf to him when they made it thinner. (They hit J4 at the same time IIRC.) So if I were you, I'd wait and see if you notice yourself pulling off better taunts. You might find it making a pretty big difference, maybe even enough to overcome the R nerfs and Q changes.

A 20 width increase is nothing, though...
