Shen This was gonna be a long, detailed and very desperate post. Then i just came from watching the stats of your broken champion Darius so i'll keep it nice and short.

Shen Rework:

#Minor Changes

  1. Increase the heal scaling on Vorpal Blade from 1.5 to 2%.
  2. Have shen's shield remove crowd control effects and make him immune to them for the duration.
  3. Have shadow dash's cooldown reduced by 2 seconds whenever shen dashes to a target marked with Vorpal Blade.

#Intermediate Changes

  1. Increase the base damage and scaling of Vorpal Blade to 65/105/145/185/225 +65% AP from 60/100/140/180/220 +60% AP.

  2. Split the W into a 2 cast ability, the first being the shield (we all know but not-so-much-love) and the second is a magic damage ability that can only be activated after the shield has been broken dealing 50% of the shield's strength as magic damage. Call it Crescent Slash which will cost 25 energy and the shield will cost 40 energy at all levels.

  3. Add 10% total reduced critical strike damage to his passive making him take lesa damage from crits (stacks additively with reinfored armor passive) like how Kassidin takes reduce magic damage. Double passives are trending, just look at Akali :)

  4. Return the shield shen gets when he teleports, do you know how risky it is when using in the heat of battle, risky is for assasins not tanks, and an enemy team can do tons of damage in a matter of seconds if they are all aiming at you.

#Major Changes (Everything above together). Puts him in line with Darius if you ask me and thats look at everything except their ults.

Second point in minor ideas is too OP. The only thing that Shen lacks is damage (maybe add damage if shens shield breaks?).
^^EDIT: that would be neat in current jungle!^^

Also increase taunt duration if he taunts just 1 player. And lil buff on Q also would be nice.

You shouldn't compare shen to darius, because they are too different kind of tanks. Darius = offensive tank, lots of power, 0 sustain Shen = utility/support tank, almost no damage, but Q for hp and double shields

(Even Garen can't match yolo Darius)

I am not comparing him with Darius, i mean darius is 1st role: Fighter, 2nd role: Tank. Shen is a 1st role: Tank, 2nd role: Fighter. My problem is not only does Darius deal more damage (which is understandable) he also is more tanky at the early laning phase. This makes me angry. Like shen I believed the games players should be balanced with a give and take everywhere making the only difference is the the abilities of the champ, his items and the skill of the summoner. Not tier 1, tier 2 and tier 3 champs >:(

displeased, another lol player and shen fan Shen

Shen's mostly fine, maybe with slight energy problems. The thing is he's purely teamwork oriented, he's not supposed to be able to duel. And yet, he's still strong 1v1 considering he effectively has no ult. And he lanes fairly well when compared to other multi-role tanks like Rammus. I mean since when is no mana pool not a significant early game advantage? The only energy champ that legit struggles early on is Akali.
