I'm refunding Shen...

Xetheran··5 votes·731 views

Ok, this remake was stupid. I don't usually use that word, I really don't. But of all the remakes Rito made so far this was the most boring. Yes boring... I don't know if I've missed anything, but the poke is gone, the shield is really hard to use in an effective way and all you can do now is taunt when ganking or wait for your ult... Other than that he is more or less worthless and most of all extremely boring to play... Tell me, what have I missed?

Boring compared to old Shen is the one word you could use that I think would be considered objectively incorrect. Nothing in the game is more boring than targeted, ranged, manaless damage.

His ult and taunt were the best things really.

I would if I hadn't used all my refunds like 3 years ago.

I mean he is shen, he's not suppose to be the BIG OUT PLAY maker or whatever, he's a tank, hes suppose to tank damage, not dish it out.

Agreed. Still boring to play tho...

Why though?

Is 3150 IP really worth one of your 3 precious refunds? What difference does it make?

replace everyone with anyone and then you got it right...

No, but from bein fun to play. They could just nerf his damage and it would've been fine. Instead they took half the fun away from him :P Wierd way of nerfing imo...

Lets be real, if you played shen as long as you are making us believe you did then you dont have any refunds left. Furthermore why would you waste a refund on a champ instead of skins

Xetheran1 votes

I have never used a single refund in 5 years, so no :P And I would refund him cause I don't want him in aram xD

they reworked an ultramarine into a scout marine.

This shen is not a hypertank, hes a fighter. Fighter shen is SUPER strong. tank shen? Meh. hes pretty okay if you hit 40%cdr.

Too team reliant. Way too team reliant.

Riot admitted that they missed the mark on translating shens personality/playstyle with his rework.

A ninja with an anchor just seems weird.

That being said, i dont mind it so much. I like new things and breaking old/stale archetypal patterns. The kit is also effective.

Isn't it better then, to create new champions? :P It's kinda shitty to a player who REALLY likes a champ, to have it remade to a more boring gameplay or whatever. I've heard several others who feel the same way. I like new thinking as well, but not changing something completely that people already liked. Nerf/buff and maybe "adjust"(whatever that would be) and create new champions, not remake champions players been playing for years. That's just cruel for no good reason :O

I wish they would revert Shen. Old Vorpal Blade was one of my favorite abilities in the game.
