Shen needs an HP nerf... That's all!

Shen losing his lane sustain was already a hard nerf enough because it's not easy to ultilize his passive and W to negate dmg in most situation, not to mention his base hp and armor and hp and armor per level. That was a tad bit too much. His new W is not as strong as it may apper it's very situational. All I ask is that you buff his base hp (not per lvl)

So he is not as squishy early game and can take a betting more (He'll still be squishy, but atleast he can take a bit more)

Base Hp 540 to 600

Trust me rito, I am a long time shen main and have a PBE acc. Didn't get to try him out and give feedback on pbe cause the patcher always failed on me but i'm telling you now and that's what's important!

I can agree with everything up until you say a HP buff will help. This rework is so far gone that even with an HP buff, top lane is a no-no. Unless you build full hp and get a warmogs or go full ad with lifesteal, you will not do anything. Even then in a teamfight a 1.75 second damage blocker is just horrendous. I cried trying to figure out how to get his abilities to work right. I tried everything. Taunt + pull dagger+ shield and all i got was literally a slap to the face as I died almost instantaneously.

actually I just came out a game with shen 19/3/12 top lane against a guinsoo jax. I tried out this build I saw on youtube and It works reall well :D so I don't think he needs a hp buff anymore (though it would help against magic dmg top lanes). Though earlier today before I tried this build I got rekt by a Sion/Voli and Nasus today, and Nasus is considered a matchup in shen's favor for the most part... but I could harass him off his farm so he just proceed to get 350+ stacks and sht on me every time I looked at him.

His base armor is one of the worst I think I've seen. If you don't take armor seals, you are committing proverbial suicide. His new kit was developed with far too many trade offs to make it a good rework.
