Out of curiosity, how do people build Shen now that Feint has been changed to a pure damage shield? I've been trying different builds with varying degrees of success, but I'm still fond of the Frozen Mallet build.

I defer to gtrsrs, but my build is
Doran's + Health Pot Mercury / Tabi (99% of the time it's Mercury) Aegis (because I solo queue and can't depend on teammates to use it) Sunfire
then whatever's needed. Usually GA.

Lol people still play Shen?

frozen mallet is bad on shen IMO unless you have a specific reason to need the slow/damage (like... the rest of your team is 4 tanks and you're the closest they have to DPS), you're WAY better off spending that gold on a defensive item
my build changes from game to game but a general non-specific guide would look like doran's shield/health pot merc treads (hopefully before 8 minutes) if you've got another 1000 gold on top of that, get a heart of gold and start ganking if not, start saving for stacked sunfires and start ganking after you get your first sunfire you should always be pushing a lane when your ult is up if they're magic damage heavy, banshee is priority for the HP and magic resist. force of nature last item because it gives no HP bonus, you need to stack some HP first
pray the game doesn't go into late-late game because shen is a terrible terrible late game hero. his tanking power just evaporates against any farmed carry and he's got no real DPS. your best plan is to win the game early

also i don't even put a level into feint unless the enemy i'm laning against has ignite or a slow projectile, and even then i only put one point until levels 14-18

I just started playing the other day, thanks to how fun this topic made the game seem. I'm enjoying it a lot, at summoner level 10 now. My name is Niton ingame, though I think i'm too low to join in things right now?
Also, thank you ZERG_RUSSIAN for your awesome cho guide :D

Could've sworn you told me HoG is awful on Shen

i did, i'm also sure of it
i have recently had a change of heart, and if you can get that extra 1000 gold quickly, i must cede that it is a good early-game investment 
aegis is also an incredibly good starting item that will give you all the magic resist you need until late game (combined with mercs), i approve of that build

Anyone know how to change the hotkey for moving pets and clones? I have my vent ptt on alt so that messes things up.

Nice been wanting to try Katarina.
Btw Cho is a bitch to lane against with Panth. If u dont kill him early it becomes really hard to harass him. He just ignores ur spears lol. Then sets u up for a gank with knock-up..
|
guys, how do all of you intend to approach season 1? i'm torn between jumping in right away and waiting for the dust to settle (where all the feeders/noobs have their elo take a dive) so that i can make a more reasonable progression playing against people whom i can actually compare myself against... eg i just start playing with 1500 elo and everyone else has 20 games in already and are still at 1500 elo. whether i win or lose will therefore be more under my control
|
i plan on charging straight into season one and playing for like 24 hours straight or something XD

i plan on jumping straight in
