I was really excited once I heard Shen
was getting a rework, AND a VU! Part of me can't take it so I'm trying to get as much of a time estimate as I can. Also, did you draw any inspiration from the 2015 art contest winner?
RiotMeddler5 votesCurrent plan is to do a mainly gameplay focused update, probably with some small visual changes, but certainly not a full VU. In terms of timing only thing I can say with confidence is that it won't be this year.
ExecutorDill1 votesI'm curious as to how will his energy regain pattern be affected by the Gameplay update. You say his dash will remain the same (this I know) but if his passive is getting changed, with it being a big part of his energy regain as if current, wouldn't that make his passive subsceptible to change
I'd really like his passive to be more interesting too. 1 of the the reasons why I liked Quinn is the marking system of her passive. Its just like a mini-game and very satisfying to use.
La Bello1 votesAnd what about those Katarina changes ???
I still have hope! Please dont tell me you guys have just trashed the plans? Her current kit is so problematic and doesnt match how she is portrayed in the media (Lore,cinematics,Art).I totally wanna see a revamped Kat.

RiotMeddler3 votesKatarina changes? As far as I know we don't have anything planned or under discussion at present.
Gerritus1 votesWhen can we expect Poppy to be revealed?

How about pantheon are you going to rework him in 2016? I think that he deserver a VU and a small reword, i mean you add 1 or 2 new mechanics Q which could be a skill shot applying something on the target, W which could be like tristana jump and to stun the marked target E could crit and so on or simple you can tweak his numbers and just change his W and R
La Bello3 votesb-but.....what about
http://www.surrenderat20.net/2015/01/red-post-collection-tentative-katarina.html
I had so many hope and dreams....
Budupops1 voteslpol they forgot about it
BeatzBoyFTW1 votesAs far as I know, I'm pretty sure those were reverted since it doesn't fit her strength at all.
ExecutorDill1 votesI'd really like if Shen had a slightly higher damage potential for following a requisition. For example Tahm's Tongue lash will also stun targets if they have a third stack of "Acquired Taste" when struck or Leblanc and that Sigil thingy.
Can Shen get something like increase Taunt duration or damage for doing something generally hard to do for him. IDK what since idk what your doing with his Q and W. His early game is reasonable but idk think he gets neary a benefit other Tanks like Tahm and Rammus do for building defensively.

Is Taric coming this year?
RiotMeddler2 votesNo, Taric won't be this year either.
A Liberal1 votes2015 "this year" or 2016 "this year"
Im a little ahead of myself I guess 
RiotMeddler2 votesNeither Taric nor Shen reworks will be released in 2015.
SlackJackflack2 votesNeither Taric nor Shen reworks will be released in 2015.
?
Dediguise1 votesI think you will be waiting a much longer time for the .
RiotMeddler3 votesShould be out before Shen or Taric. I don't want to make any promises we can't be certain of beyond that, but she's getting a lot of focused work right now.

I know thats a biiit offtopic. But, you said you tried out some versions of Zyra´s new passive, you ddnt like it and shelved it for preseason. My question. What exactly did you try out and why didnt you like it?
Soleka1 votesso is she going to be out for 2015? or is she getting pushed back to 2016?
Mattematticz2 votesShould be out before Shen or Taric. I don't want to make any promises we can't be certain of beyond that, but she's getting a lot of focused work right now.
But Taric needs it more.
TerraRising1 votesNeither Taric nor Shen reworks will be released in 2015.
So... Yorick in 2017?
Orisi1 votesMeddler, The Dream Crusher.
I guess I'll just have to wait a little longer to be fabulous.
Mattematticz2 votesNo, Taric won't be this year either.
OK.... WHY???????????????????????????????????????????? Prioritize Taric over everyone else please. No one needs this rework more than him. Juggernauts don't need it, ADCs don't need it, Poppy doesn't need it more than Taric does. Prioritize. Taric. Everyone has wanted his rework out for a very VERY long period of time.
Taric the Gay1 votesIs Taric coming this year?
I already came out years ago. You can thank Ezreal for helping me realize this.
But I am sure you mean my rework and VU. My rework is ready and everyone will be more than excited to see my new abilities, but what is holding up my release is my VU as I refuse to be released until it is perfect. Riot was kind enough to give me an all expenses paid trip to the spa and it takes quite a lot of time to get myself to look as flawless as possible. I still have to get both my manis and pedis done. I have this hair stylist who I have been going to for years who does marvelous work but she has been booked for the last few months what with Holiday season and all and I won't let anyone else perm my hair but her. My tiara will be getting replaced with a far more luxurious version of my current tiara as over the years some of the gems have fallen out. I will be donating my old tiara to the make-a-wish foundation for any young boy whose wish is to be a beautiful princess. My new tiara as I mentioned earlier will be more luxurious, brilliant and sparkly than the previous one because it will be a diamond band encrusted with diamonds and enchanted with diamond dust. Can't go wrong with diamonds, on diamonds on diamonds, right? My hammer simply doesn't have enough gems on it so I will be getting more gems to better accentuate my uncontested dominance of the rift. Lastly is my cod piece. My codpiece needs to be refitted to reduce chafing. This way my outfit will not only be fashionable and stylish but also a great deal more comfortable as well.
Once these things get taken care of I will appear on the rift and you all will be bedazzled by my brilliance. .#Gems .#ShineBrightLikeADiamond .#DiamondsAreForever .#IfYouLikeItThenYouShouldHavePutAGemOnIt @EzrealTheGay
Astrogolem1 votes;( Thanks for the response!
Desiderium1 votesWhy not something like Alistar? New model, animations, etc. but with the same extremely limited voiceover. It's been done already right?
BeatzBoyFTW1 votesSorry to ask, but can we get some tiny details about his ability changes or a small VU looks? Just being curious.
Decrit1 votesYo!
Do you have plans to preserve him as a support? In the sense, do you plan to rework with that in mind, without considering it but not denying it or something else? last time info was shared you ( as devs ) were intrested on keeping ult and E, which is the stuff Shen is based on so it would seem he will still be a thing, but some time passed and i wanted to ask again.
Ultîma2 votesWill Shen's walk animation be revised?
Please O please say yes.
Clôude1 votesCan you please fix his derpy hands? and walk, and attack animation, and /j/t/d/l... wtf why isn't he getting a VU?!
Thund3r Ang3l1 votesYes i would like to Have some hint on what is going on with the Rework. I am very stressed about it....
He is gettin A small Vu update Like Mao And Ali Had.
Myz1 votesNo shen rework ... I like current shen :(

No shen rework ... I like current shen :(
You know what? I was scare at first... But... I feel like he really need it. I love Shen As he is right now but he need something better in his kit. Atleast, A new W And A New Q. However i think his passive is pretty good And i dont see why they want to change it.

Shen's current passive is a little redundant with the introduction of Titanic Hydra and possibly problematic if the two are combined in some build.
HoneHaki1 votesRedundant ? They just made Tahm Kench ... he basically has this health ratio on every aa and every spell. Please.
The Yetii Rider1 votesRedundant ? They just made Tahm Kench ... he basically has this health ratio on every aa and every spell. Please.
They didn't "just make" Tahm Kench, we've had at least two champions since him, and Kindred was after Worlds which was in October.
Also Tahm Kench is intended to be a support which means he's intended to take Bond of Stone. Grasp is much more clearly intended for top lane tanks like Shen.
ExecutorDill1 votesI like current shen too but in terms of his abilities i only really love 60% of it and that is his Dash, and Shield Teleport.
For example... Braum is a Support... But all of his abilities feel engaging and game iimpactful; and for me very satisfying to use. I can only say this about Shen's E and R.
ExecutorDill1 votesThe question i've been dying to see answered.... (Don't really be in the boards so much)
LadyRenly1 votesIs Shen gonna keep his voice actor?
Solidair31 votesHe probably will. It's not a full Champion Update, just minor visual changes and an ability update so he's more engaging in lane.
Dextix LT1 votesIm not, after what happened with morde im not waiting for any kind of rework to my main.
Narian1 votesWhen gets Azir a new skin??? I wait since his Release for a GOOD skin... 
Stephenizgod1 votesLol love all the people asking for specific time, you are not going to get any information or specifics. Meddler doesn't want to make a promise then break it, that would be worse then not telling you anything at all.
