( English Isn't my mothertongue, Sorry about the inconvenience while reading my post )

Instead of whining to riot for the fact that Shen hasnt had a Non-World skin for more than 5 years, I tried to brainstorm some ideas and I came with this weird idea by looking at the dawnbringer/Nightbringer skin line. We all know Shen is supposedly a half human half spirit who can freely walk between Runeterra and the spirit world for whatever reason. But one of his main feature is his obligation to stay neutral to all things and I believe riot should exploit this interesting facet of Shen.

So I was wondering, what if he has a skin with 3 forms : Neutral, evil, good. And those form would change depending on a specific criteria such as for example: the more assist he has, he will eventually turn on the good side form in the midst of the game or whatever. it could be something else , I really don't know, but the core idea of this skin would show how he struggle to keep his neutral identity depending on the situation he is in.

Shen is supposed to be neutral but his morality is still very fragile with the Jhin stuff and Zed, and I find this super interesting.

What do you think guys? We need to help riot so just shoot whatever you would like to see for our Favorite Tanky Ninja. it can be a special feature, an appearance, a theme...

Wouldn’t it be the other way around? If he has a lot of assists, the skin would turn into the dark form to balance out the light/good assists. More kills would mean light form.

I'd say that is a definitely interesting idea and one I am in favor of as well. Shen has been pretty ignored in the skin line besides chroma, which I don't think is enough. As a Shen Main myself, I'd love to see this come to reality so I can have a satisfying skin with some uniqueness to itShen
