Shen's Blood Moon blade is the biggest reason I don't use the skin. I feel like Trundle with a big bat, it's ugly. If you're gonna make people buy a Blood Moon skin on Shen at least make the blade into a sword not a bat. What do you guys think?
Did you just call a Kanabo a chode bat?
I mean as in the Kanabo wielded by giant ogre like demons called onis who use to to crush their victims?
The same Kanabo wielded by samurai to strike and inspire fear in the hearts of their enemies? The reason why they wear those ugly face guards to look like said onis?
Those Kanabo used to crush and batter armor? Right? I'm pretty sure a red blade, while cool, is generic compared to the chode sized bat.
The only skin I would allow chodes on would be illaoi and yeah I agree, I thought the blood moon skins were supposed to be based off ninjas not what you can find in a Spencers.
So let's make Blood Moon Shen less distinct by giving him another sword instead of a weapon that is commonly associated with specific demons (Oni) in Japan?
No thanks, I prefer the kanabo/tetsubo.
That is exactly what this weapon is too. the Kanobo was approx 4 feet long made of a solid wood like oak and the studded with iron studs. A Samurai Warrior could use this to cause massive internal bleeding through an enemies armor or break the sword of his enemies. Though it was rarely used in contemporary battles as the Samurai preferred more controlled weapons like the katana and the Yari (spear). In fact most samurai fought with a Yari and resorted to the Katana as a means of last defense and attack at least until the Edo period.
Sorry for the ramble but I absolutely love that Shen uses the Kanobo as his spirit weapon on his Blood Moon skin! In fact I am going to play using that skin tonight!
