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). | ||

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

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 | ||

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. | ||

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). | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
