With legit health regen from dshield, why would you not want more regen? Is good hands really better?

I think we agree on offense. Then again, I think it's obvious...

DShield + base regen is 13 hp5. If I'm reading things correctly, 3 points in Perseverance isn't even worth 1 hp5 until you hit level 6.

0.5 HP/5 is not irrelevant -- both technically (they track it, it works) and tactically (it can win lanes). You're talking about approximately one spare creep-hit per wave, I believe. It's small, but is it worse than something which is only good after you've screwed up?

Show me one game where the extra 1 hp per 10 won a lane and I'll show you 100 where reviving 5 seconds faster saved a tower/dragon/baron.

Plus you still have to dump 2 points in Perseverance anyways
it's my first day

This ^

good hands is at least 100 times better than perseverance.

0.5 HP5 won't even have regenned an auto-attack's worth of damage until like 9 minutes. I'm skeptical that situations where a single auto-attack means the difference between winning and losing a lane arise relevantly often.

Perserverence would be better if it scaled 2/4/6% instead of 2/3/4% like it does now. That being said it's only really useful on champions which get a lot of their survivability from regen, such as Mundo - and even on them it's not really worth it over good hands.

Just played some DPS Kennen.

Funny thing happened. TF was being annoying like usual and pushing towers, so I gank him and at this point it's late game so I have around 70% crit and 250-300 damage. I nearly killed him but I mistimed my stun so he managed to ult away right as my last shuriken was flying to finish the job.

So I think, god damnit so close, I almost had him. Now he's at bot lane being annoying (from top lane). 5 Seconds later as I'm farming, I see that I killed him. I think, wth? i don't have Liz buff...

And he tells me that my Shuriken followed him all the way from top lane to bot lane, and finished him off.

^It happens with all projectiles interacting with all teleports, even projectile spells. It's hilarious when that gets you a kill.

Even blitzcrack's rocket grab used to do that but they fixed it T.T

Karate Kennen is fucking awsome.
His hitbox feels off though, a good amount bigger then his body.

ALSO

I HATE SHACO BOXXES
O look, I'm shaco, if I place a box behind me and you throw a shuriken at me from the other side, YOU"LL HIT THE BOX.

obv not a bug.

I hate Panth's W, can't hop over walls.... -.- Tbh I'd be all in favor of rocket grab, bandage toss, aegis of zeonia and similiar spells all working past walls and castable on allies...

Having skillshots be castable on allies is the worst idea ever.

Even when used offensively your skillshots wouldn't get cockblocked by allies anyways because of range, and I'm talking about displacing skillshots which could be used as escape mechanisms (or in case of blitz's rocket grab as a save-the-nub gamesaver, which would make him quite viable).

Having rocket grab usable on your own team would allow blitz to grief the hell out of everyone.

There are similiar mechanics in dota, complaining about griefing on rocket grabs would be like complaining about pirate denying minions.
Think for a second about a world without flash, a random carry gets stunned and ganked but blitz pulls him and saves the day. Ofc it would be a high risk move but I don't see other ways of balancing him without changing his passive to give him positive and negative charges.

How are you ever going to land a bandage toss or rocket grab with both enemy minions and your own minions in the way?
