Do you find that soloq toplaners have good control over gnar's rage bar for teleporting into teamfights? Just wondering if high elo players run into that problem cause i see it occasionally even in pro matches where a gnar would tp in with like 0 rage. | ||

It still doesn't solve some of his other, more inherent issues (poor wave clear, item dependent, basically relegated to split push status in every game). Will these buffs let him see competitive play again? Probably, especially with how strong TP is right now in the top lane, Shen just lets you run a 4-1 split push comp very easily and he can still be there for team fights because of his ult. The nerf/changes to Sunfire Cape certainly don't help him out (basically required on him to let him split push/clear waves). I mean, in theory you could run him top lane in a Juggermaw-like composition with Lulu mid, Nunu jungle and Janna support and just have the little voidling puppy run around doing his taunt/charge noise thing while Shen split pushes, and the moment the enemy team tries to kill him, boom, he's got like a 1500 health shield AND is larger AND is blood boiled and oh look your entire team is dead now and they're now 5-man pushing down whatever lane they were in to destroy your base. | ||

I was playing Ashe on one of my first ranked games and was hard carrying. And i had killed their team and just had to kill their jungler left. Nautilus had 400 armor, 4000 HP and 40% CDR  I was full build but his shields were stupid massive. The pentakil timer ran out before I could. | ||

Four of them dove tier 3 mid turret because it was low and they wanted to end on that push, as the 5th was a split pushing, fed Zed with a huge wave hitting tier 2 top. I ran in with the main tankline (a Pantheon I think) and blew up their ADC first with a full rotation. By the time the other 3 turned on me and ignoring the Panth I was already killing the support and turning my attention to the jungler (this was Kha'Zix during his damage reduction ult phase) and he'd already used his ult about 30s prior (he tried to kill me and failed). Our ADC was chunking down their tank (who killed the t3 at this point and was working on the inhib). I KSed that one for the quadra, and by this time my ult was back off CD. I rushed to top lane (where Zed had killed t2 and was working on t3) with about 50% HP remaining and he dove me with everything (ult + ignite + BotRK active) and I just ulted and blew my combo on him (he had no MR, so I was basically dealing true damage), got the penta and lived with ~50 HP after everything went down. After the fight I had gotten like 3k gold from all the kills and shutdown gold, went from 2 items to 4 (RoA, Frozen Heart, Void Staff, Seraphs) and just pushed mid, killed them again when they respawned and won the game shortly thereafter (our ADC was Jinx, so we chewed through the turrets). | ||

I'm not a Top Lane/Shen expert but the changes look underwhelming to me. They're buffs, but where is Shen now that some MR and a slightly faster Ki Strike will take him from ignored to pick/ban? Edit: The thread appears to have passed me by. | ||
