Shen has two swords on his back

But apparently he only uses one of them, the somewhat larger looking one that goes from his left shoulder and points towards his right leg. So what's the other one for? Is it just there visually so that all his skins didn't have to get reworked too heavily due to the fact that he originally had two swords on his back so the skins like tpa shen can keep his two stick things? Feels kinda lame honestly, and on top of that they're not even similar swords, they're different, which breaks his symmetry. Don't even get me started on that gimmicky spirit blade thing.....IMO only thing that really needed to change was his W that didn't scale into almost anything.

So riot, if you really plan on keeping that other different sword being different, why not make it so that Shen uses different swords when using normal attacks and the other when he's using his empowered Q attacks. That would make a visually appealing difference of "shen's attacking me" as opposed to " OH SHIT! SHEN'S ATTACKING ME, RUN AWAAAAAAAAAAY"

though somehow I wouldn't be too surprised if it was somehow like that, but the videos in the update reveal don't show his normal attack animation without empowered Q autos, so there's no real way to tell (some plz rito sempai)

and while I'm at it.... goodbye sustain Q...I will miss you so when I can't help my allies heal for a % of my health and help do a cheese sustain as support shen
