Sorry I should clarify. She needed a nerf but peer-pressure once again pushed the nerf overboard. To that second comment, in all honesty we should've lost that game. Normally people don't come back and as a result of that experiment, I'd rather not waste time and just surrender. Easier to go to the next game.
In all honesty, he is very nice with his designs. I've found all of these champions to a great mix, fun, somewhat unique, and shifts up the game a bit while still retaining it's essence and core.
I (Akali) and I think Bind (Cho) was so strong. I had free reign up top. 4/5 of their team couldn't deal with a strong akali.
:3
Thing is Shen still lacks a good CC. One taunt in a straight line doesn't cut it. I'd give him the ability to dash with no cd. Let him be able to dash twice with full energy and burn it all in exchance to possibly taunt the entire team. Or make his ult shield everyone but he tp's to target champ. I dunno, maybe the buff will see Shen maxing Q first now.
Nerf it if you want, but to completely take it away?
That shit is only going to be used to silence people. Her heal costs way too much mana, the Starfall change is nice and all, but it's just making her more AP and less support.
For that kinda burst, it should take that much mana. It just means your ad carry can't play reckless anymore.
Sor - burst heal but huge mana cost
Sona - small heal but small mana cost
Taric - medium heal with long cd
I think they're heading in the right direction trying to balance out the supports.
solo top, ganking jungler, ap mid, and ad+support bot
Shen has always maxed Q first.

I approve of Shen buffs.
Really? I always get 2 pts in Q for early lane phases and then max the others next.

Having so much fun with Ziggs since he's free this week. His ult does so much damage. I have a feeling he is going to be hit with nerfs pretty soon.
His shield was really bad, dunno why you'd max it out early. Q was needed to jungle clear speed or for laning heal/harass, as the only way for him to really put out damage it was necessary to max it. Of all his abilities it gains the most from additional ranks, and it gets the most use out of any of his abilities.
His Q gains the most from level 2 - still. But his feint now is sooooo strong. Maxing W after leve 2 Q is def the way to go. Shen is clearly OP.
Nerfs and bans have weird feedback loop behavior though. Even if someone doesn't need nerfed much, if enough people complain loudly enough, Riot may nerf them a bunch anyway.
If someone is nerfed even a little, you may almost completely stop seeing them. I hardly ever see Trondomore anymore. He may not be a good example, but I feel like there have been cases where someone lost 40 damage from an ability or something, and everyone stopped playing them.

I'd ban him to keep the baddies from playing him lol.
I was talking about old Shen.
See: Skarner
They increased some mana costs and he fell off the face of the planet. I had to jungle a draft game the other day and barely noticed a difference.

Oh ho ho
Shen was one of my tanks pre-30. I'd love to give him another go now that he's viable.
Akali top, Kennen mid, Shen support bot, Ninja Rammus jungle.

The only type of game I can start is solo que ranked.
Everything else glitches.

It is seriously getting out of hand at this point.
Every single game I play I experience significant FPS drops here and there, sometimes I glitch and can't move anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
I'm disconnecting on game loads every ten as well.
That combined with not even being able to start a game is getting on my nerves.
I wonder if Rayven can give us any sort of inside info. It seems like that game's stability is getting worse and worse.
I get sudden fps drops whenever I combo while Ziggs. :/
I'm not getting any random disconnects, but I am getting the occasional 2-second FPS freeze up during a game every 3rd game or so. This week I've also had an issue where in joining a game I can't click on anything. I can type, see other people's speech and they can see mine but I just can't click anything. Only happened twice so far, once in a normal and once in a bot game.
Also; LoL is the only game I lagg in. It doesn't even make sense, it's pretty much every single game where I experience a lagg spike that lasts anywhere between 2 to 4 seconds, sometimes even longer. My internet speed is fine and I don't experience such lagg in any game, regardless of whether I'm playing it on PC, PS3, etc.
he gets into teamfights and makes people stick into them
so if a teamfight goes south for the enemy, usually the carry will run and you can just bring em back into it
also a great initiator
he's such a goddamn stylish tank, i love him to death
