Shouldn't riot buff Shen ?

I mean i sure never played him before , but my bro does and i always play premade with him , i have seen how shen is almost useless besides defending his allies ? He does like no dmg and he is out of energy for most of the time. Shen mains what do you say ?

I like Shen where he is right now. His ult is such an amazing tool as long as you focus on the map, so I think even with his weak lane phase he is still in a good spot at the moment.

Revert the rework.

Keep visual upgrade.

He is an extremely high skill champion. Pluss, they buffed him last patch so he probably won't see any buff until they get some reliable numbers.

Shen's only damage is from his Q and E, and his Q scales with ap, and nobody besides me if in really really fed or bored builds ap shen and his E scales with his health, so it might do some damage later in the game, that's why people build item 3748 on him. So he doesent do much damage and he is nerfed because of worlds. So he does even less. And about the energy thing I only really run out of energy if i spam q or dash to escape without using q to get energy back by attacking. So yes he doesent do much damage. No you shouldn't run out of energy all the time. Yes he needs buffs in terms of damage, but he has other ways to be helpful

  • I'm not a shen main, but I play him mostly in the support role and rely on damage from my adc, and I probably have a bronze mmr, so don't take my opinion that heavily

Shen deals damage, you just need to build it.

And you can get away with damage items on him due to the ridiculousness of Ki Barrier lategame.

He can't be buffed straight up because of what he can do in the LCS and on coordinated teams.

Shen need a buff... Welll, not a buff... he needs a fix on his kit synergy.

With CoC Shen is fine now. Maybe needs some number buffs, but other than that he's fine.

I'm a shen main and I know shen is not in the best spot right now but all I think he needs to come back to the meta is making his Q do dmg to towers to help split push and make his taunt intargetable cause I have died so many times mid taunt when if it lands I'd have a kill. If rito did this shen would have a better lane phase. But besides that if u play shen right and know his limits u can carry late game

I think Shen is a very good champion but he lacks damage look at alistar or garen they're all tanks but have some what good damage his early game damage is alright but still squishy and late game he can hardly contribute to team fights when talking about damage like at least have his (Q)scale on AD and have shorter cooldowns on his (W) & (E) and make his (R)interruptible Like i don't know if this is even looked at but Riot pls take this into consideration ;)
