Spark looks really well-suited to Shen. Wit's will probably still be better because it's more cost-effective but Spark gives Shen what he needs (attack speed, HP, AoE pushing power).

I don't know how the hell that Shen buff happened. Like seriously, that's stronger than when shen was unkillable back before the sunfire + randuins changes, where he could rush sunfire and never die ever all of midgame.

Because >1500 elo ranked players are representative of the LoL population, right.

It will be hotfixed if only because it's not fun in blind pick normals, just like release Leblanc.

i'm gonna go ahead and go against the grain here, and say shen isn't going to be OP

vorpal costs more energy late-game
taunt costs more energy late-game (though he does get more back, i will cede)
taunt duration decreased by 0.5 seconds at rank 5
channel time and shield duration decreased at all ranks for his ult


so yeah, a lot of areas he got a lot stronger on (damage, energy retention), but he lost some of his utility
i think you guys are blowing his buffs out of proportion

better early-game? yes, for sure. still have the problem of doing jack-all past mid-game? pretty much :\


edit: yeah, i'm kinda playing devil's advocate here - i'm moderately excited for my original favorite champ to be getting buffed. but COME ON GUYS he's not like skarner or rammus or morgana level strong imo

Does the +2% heal scale down with the rest of the Vorpal Blade heal, or is it a constant heal for each hit? If not, carries get 150 health per hit.


Wait a minute, Shen isn't going to be as overpowered as you all think. His taunt is half a second shorter at max rank and costs 20 more energy. And his Vorpal Blade costs 10 more energy at max rank. And he lost .15 AP scaling on his Q and W. And his Ult takes longer to teleport. Checks and balances guys.

the way it works now is it heals X amount over like 2 or 3 seconds starting from when you trigger it. If you hit a target marked by vorpal blade while you're already under the heal effect it just refreshes it.

I also like how in the patch preview video Phreak says "Sona has been the premier support for a while..." and then they hit Soraka over the head with a baseball bat, breaking her horn into pieces, while Sona gets a tap on the wrist. :/

Ki strike restores 30 energy late-game, the same amount vorpal/dash went up for cost. At least in the first parts of a team fight shen will have nearly as much if not more energy than before.

As for the other stuff the best part about ulti was it actually providing a shield and being a global teleport, it's not a huge nerf (the shield itself was buffed anyways).

the soraka changes are positive - she's less of a portable fountain and more of a clutch burst healer. she still gives her lane partner infinite harass capabilities, but she is no longer the attrition goddess of the game (which is positive for gameplay in general)

@petered (in the end of the last GD): Sorry, stupid to use that phrase on a SC forum. Blizzard did an excellent job with most of their games. The thing I was getting at is how they balance WoW; they basicly overnerf or overbuff classes in a random order.

The only two noticeable nerfs here are the channel time and taunt duration nerf, energy problem is masked by taunt buff and ki strike buff especially now you get to proc more ki strike with W on. Shield duration wasn't really ever that a big deal, 5 seconds is a pretty long time.

I am sure his other buffs make up for it especially now it is extremely difficult to stop him from split pushing after cabbaging all over his lane AND he now pushes faster thanks to the damage buffs.

I mean we shall see, but if he is not overpowered then I will eat my lab coat.

I'd say the biggest thing that makes Sona pretty OP is her AoE ult. But chaging this would probably require a complete re-working.

Soraka was a problem with her "sit back and afk farm for 20 minutes" influence. But it was pretty easy to fix by scaling back some of her "infinite" sustain.

Sona

Power Chord damage adjusted to 10 per level from 14 + 9 per level
Hymn of Valor passive attack damage and ability power aura reduced at earlier ranks to 4/8/12/16/20 from 8/11/14/17/20
Aria of Perseverance passive armor and magic resist aura reduced at earlier ranks to 3/6/9/12/15 from 7/9/11/13/15
Song of Celerity passive movement speed aura reduced at earlier ranks to 4/8/12/16/20 from 8/11/14/17/20

Sona @ level 1 with level 1 Q

50(+4) AA + 20 Power Chord + 50(+2.8) Hymn of Valor = 126.8 damage
Subsequent AA harass = 54

Current Sona @ level 1 with level 1 Q
50(+8) AA + 46 Power Chord + 50(+5.6) Hymn of Valor = 159.6 damage
Subsequent AA harass = 58

A noticeable difference in the hardest lane to balance in the game

Shen can proc the CD reduction on his Ki Strike twice at base attack speed. So that basically means his Ki Strike has a 5 second cooldown in the jungle. His cleartime, though still not that fast, will be significantly improved, and he's going to have an extra half second on his taunt for early ganks. While it's completely overshadowed by the backdooring he's going to do to top champions, Shen might be a good jungler now.
