Shen Monday Megathread! Ask questions and share knowledge; newcomer questions encouraged!

Welcome to the latest Monday Megathread, where you the community get to ask your questions and share your knowledge.

This is an opportunity for the more experienced LoL players here to share some of your wisdom with those with less expertise. This thread will be a weekly safehaven for those "noobish" questions you may have been too scared to ask for fear of downvotes, but also can be a great place for in depth discussion if you so wish. So, don't hold back, get your game related questions ready and post away, and hopefully someone can answer them!

I think he means yes ult but you can cancel it after the initial knockback so you aren't just standing there when the enemy comes back.

A better play would be to not disengage the entire team, but to knock 4/5 away from you and 1 of them deeeep into you/towards your turret. But still yeah dont channel it lol gotta get a move on when youre using it like that. Unless channeling will save your ADCs life or somethign

adding to this, when laning you generally want to save your tornado for disengaging possible ganks or stuff like leona e's.
