Shen's Animations
Shen is one of the few champions whose ability animations are the same throughout all his skins. I mean come on! Even an incredibly underplayed champ like
has his cool BattleCast Skin with altered animations.
Why do Riot ignore shen? Why do they give him a pat on the back and ignore him for years at a time without mentioning his very name. Up until last week you couldn't find 1 shen discussion with a Rioter in it. (Thanks to me) why is that?

It is clear shen is a little under-balanced. Lol players are un satisfied with his Texture Update and long for a Visual Update. Shen is an old champ, one who usta make big LCS plays and he is the rival of one of if not the most played mid laner of S4.
It makes me sad because he has so much potential to be one of those "all time favourite champs" I know it's not hard to give him a clean polished VU update to latest be on equal footing with
. Shen's appearance gives the impression of a traditional "swift, stealthy, assassin ninja" but I fact he is the complete opposite of those things and maybe if he looked more like a Tank, I'd be psychologically influenced to accept him as such and stop having this weird "break the meta" OP fighter shen, because his kit simply doesn't allow it.
