New Galio is just better shen
Shen has a special place in my heart as the first tank I ever learned top lane. I have many good memories of bailing my friends out of stupid situations and despite being a tank, just dumpstering on the enemy laner while being impossible to kill. After his rework and his nerfs to said rework, shen hasn't been the same imo. Yeah he'll get picked in pro play due to that amazing ult but honestly when Galio is released I don't see why you would ever pick shen. If you want a tanky top laner that can scale well and play safe, pick Sion. You want hard reliable engage? Pick malphite. You want peel? Poppys got you. And now, do you want a roaming tank? Galio has you. He'll have a safer Laning phase, better damage, better tank AND AP scaling, more cc, better dive potential, can do more with a lead thanks to his good ratios, and can split push faster/better. The only reason I can think of to pick shen over Galio is that his ult is global but honestly you can get past the Galio ult range and it's on a much lower CD to begin with. On top of that items like iceborn and aybss are gonna be great on Galio so CDR is easier to build. I like the new Galio a lot but it's just sad to see a champion I love so much be basically rendered completely obsolete by the other tanks.
