Riot please, I started playing this game because of Shen, and after waiting all this time, I'm disappointing with this new Shen skin( his current state is annoying but i can deal with it) this new skin is honestly more of the same. After his visual overhaul all his skins LOOK nice but none of them have that bang that flash I own all his skins and besides the wooshie new effects I don't feel all that compelled to buy the new skin. I wanted an Ultimate or at least a legendary for Shen. He's old enough and he's gone so long without a skin he deserves some true love.

Edit: Being Blunt besides the new visual effects, the skin really feels half assed

The fact that you bring up one guy's willingness to do a new VO doesnt mean the other 26 are able to.

Possible buffs/tweaks: if spamming Shen's ult is problematic as was discussed in the video: Perhaps putting a cap of 20% CDR from items on his ult, but have something similar to transcendence: Excess CDR becomes AP or AD adaptive, or give his autos an on hit bonus magic damage, or it could boost the shield on his passive etc.

Or make his ultimate cooldown could be entirely fixed and have it convert CDR stats into something else.

Next up the video discussed that he needs a way to farm better under turrets/lane a little more safely: not sure what to give him here. Of course he could get his old Q back but doing so without completely reverting to his old kit might be difficult to implement.

I think it's best we try out a few more solutions before reverting Shen.

Next I'd like to discuss this post on item 3091 : https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/TnMguz23-wits-end-upgrade-idea-only-affects-minions

as the item could synergize very well on Shen

riot — please buff shen in minor ways like the video suggests.

i agree that issues of CSing under tower need to be addressed. why should i play a champ that (a) loses most toplane matchups and (b) also be unable to CS under tower while using an empowered cooldown ability?

shen players seem to be punished for making cross-map plays moreso than what was intended. your lane priority suffers AND you can’t really win trades anymore against the conqueror champs (unless they severely underplay). thus what would be a normal trade (i ult to bot lane or something and lose my CS advantage or CS equity) is now an unfavorable trade (i ult bot and am probably already losing by CS, and so the lane is pretty much over).

i also find the scaling/CD of W to be awkward and underwhelming. OP makes a good point about other toplaners’ CDs for offensive moves (riven, etc).

the music in this video makes it hard to want to watch IMO (i just dont like the style) personally i only play shen support i would for me at least like to see shen get more buffs to how well we he can help his team also i wish he still had the damage reduction from enemies he taunted like he had before

You have not lived until you play Shen one for all and leap frog to each other with teleports and taunt the enemy into chain CC.

Looking forward to new voice lines if it happens.

Nothing is going to happen guys. The Skin is going stay the way it is and we will need to accept that. Maybe in another 5 years Shen will finaly get the attention he deserves.
