How come Shen has 400 energy?

Unless I'm seeing this wrong but he has 400 energy and high energy costs on the pbe.

Any insight?

They want him to be able to cast a few spells then run OOE and have more downtime for energy regen than other champions that have 200 max

That's my logical guess for this if it's true

I think his regen rate is still the same so he can still do his comboes exactly as before but will start to fall off in an extended fight and need to pick and choose what to use and when.

since my thread will probably get ignored, I was thinking the same thing, and had these thoughts.

My questions are: Is this a test implementation similar to the ammo system that was used on Graves(for Jihn)? If so, will you be using this on future energy user updates or perhaps an update to energy itself? and Is this a step toward making the balancing of the energy system easier?

Other thoughts: Will runes be affected by changes to energy because the scale at which they were originally balanced was with the 200 limit in mind. Will energy runes be removed or updated? With the increase, will you add energy regen to items/masteries?

because they wanted you to wait 40 seconds just to get your energy back.
