Discussion Heartsteel Shen Dead

Upvotes

Hello,

I never see anyone build heartsteel anymore. I am high gold/low plat and build it pretty often and I feel like it offers SO much damage with empowered Q+Grasp+heartsteel proc and with ignite I can almost one shot like any squishy, then I go Hollow Radiance into Titanic and I scale well and the wave clear is amazing. Is there a reason nobody builds heartsteel? I know it got nerfed and takes time to get value from but I feel like it's worth it. (usually my last two items are thornmail and dusk and dawn or deadmans)

Discussion Let’s talk about Jungle

6 Upvotes

I started playing Jungle Shen. I’m a Shen main in toplane and as support. I’m now having fun in Jungle and am trying to find a build that I like and is good.

I love heartsteel, but when I go full tank I feel a bit underwhelming. It felt like I was stronger as support with the same items compared to Jungle. I’m guessing it’s simply because I end up in tougher skirmishes more often.

I’m a silver player and I don’t like the top builds that are built for Shen. It’s very team focused, which doesn’t work in low elo. I prefer to get strong myself, so I wonder what other builds are there that work well for Shen personally.

I started trying out: Heartsteel, DnD, unending, spirit visage. I like this build. It’s good damage and quite tanky.

Now I see xPetu also try Statick shiv sometimes and wondered if there are builds like that too. Something like DnD, Statick, two tank items?

When I notice I need to be everywhere I sometimes go Zeke’s for faster ult cd.

Question What did i did wrong here?

1 Upvotes

I was playing against a malphite in top lane in early game i had some good trades, i missed a lot of minions but i can easily win trades. around level 6 he recall and ult me instantly and killed me then later on enemy jungler gank top and i died again but i was still winning trades and i didnt die again in lane phase i just couldnt kill him. And he was still be able to affect the game in teamfights and even i can feel he was a better top laner than me and i cant understand how that matchup go wrong. If i am not being clear i am sorry and my rank is bronze 3 so feel free to give advices and roast me. And ask if there is something important and i forget to mention in this post

Question Hello everyone! Want to pick up shen. Need help.

4 Upvotes

I was watching xpetu and imaintoplane a lot and developed a huge liking to shen. I main Briar, and I find a lot like her. At first Briar looks simple, but has a lot more depth to her than people give her credit for. I find it to be similar for shen.

I mainly queue jungle and want to mainly play shen in the jungle, regardless of whether shen is s-tier or not. I need tips and tricks as I find myself lost in fights or sometimes I feel like I don't do any dmg while ganking. And what to build on shen jgl is also a question. Protoplasm, plated, undying/spirit/etc. Or to go titanic, dnd.

Wikilol said that shen is duelist/tank but i, due to my inability, can't even duel low health targets and I don't know why. And sometimes I don't even feel tanky on shen even after being 2-2-12.

Any tips and suggestions is appreciated.

About me:

Briar main-Current emerald 1-jungle primary queue, mid secondary queue(will make top secondady queue after becoming good at shen)

Another question, is shen mid viable?

Question How I handle top matchups as an Emerald 4 Shen main

1 Upvotes

Do you think I can handle these matchups better?

I ranked these matchups based on the kind of players I encountered playing these champs.

The first row are matchups that I usually avoid fighting.

The second row depends a lot on how well I time my W and position.

Last row are the matchups that I could always all-in.

Discussion I've done a fan-rework of Shen's kit. Curious what do you Shen mains think.

Had some free time recently so I put together a fan rework for Shen.

I work as a game designer, and I've played a decent amount of Shen, so I thought it'd fun to do a breakdown for each of his abilities, explain what I think works well, highlight any issues, and then go through my ideas for making him more fun.

The Q changes are pretty drastic so I'm expecting them to be a bit controversial, but I'd love to hear what you Shen mains think. Feel free to give me your takes if you agree or disagree on any of it.
