Right now, in the tank meta, it should be Shen's time to shine... and it's bullshit that he doesn't.

See title... Shen needs a friggin buff.

You might cite that he has a global ult, I might cite "when has he been play competitively, ever??" - outside of season 1

Maybe Nasus is just a bad matchup, but I find him aggravating to lane against.

His Q does magic damage and I can't dodge it, he decent sustain so I can't just hit him and continue stacking, and he gets so tanky that my Q doesn't do much to him even when I get a nice amount of stacks.

I don't think he needs a buff.

its not a tank meta. its only tanks even being in the game again ffs. theyre not dominating the game. some of them are just being played again. this is still the adc meta that started second half of season 3.

the only thing that changed for tanks is that theyre able to jungle now. lategame they still blow up like theyre made of paper. and the reason why shen is still not better off, is because he doesnt have a great jungle kit. so the changes didnt help him much.

You mean besides that time early season 3 where he got his buff, was close to his original state, dominant the top lane for a bit then got nerfed? Besides that, none really.

I saw a jungle Shen completely dominate in solo Q yesterday, that guy carried my team.

Shen does have the most unforgiving energy costs of any of the energy champions, though. That's what makes his laning not-that-great.

He was actually designed as a dueling bruiser with a global presence and a pasted on teamfight capability, and not actually a full on tank.

Wait you mean the rework that riot ahs stated they ahve planned for him but had to shelve currently while they fix things? No that can't be it you must mean all teh otehr seaosns where he was dominant right? Nope you want him to be able to be the altest FOM op champ so you can faceroll with him well newsflash not gonna happen.

Shen is a tank that does really well in a split push meta. Unfortunately we do not have a split push meta so shen is not at his best.
