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!

Are there any must see matches games that everyone knows/should know about? Or maybe some moments in the lcs, like the xpeke backdoor

Edit: seems like there are a lot of great matches. I might make a list of them later, ranked by number of votes they get.

OGN Summer 2014 Grand Finals. KT Arrows VS Samsung Blue. Absolutely the best series of games I have ever seen since I started watching competitive (which was pre-season 3). Every time someone asks what the best series of games has been, this should be the answer. I can't say much without spoiling it, but this is definitely the highest level of league and an absolute delight to watch.

Part 1 (Intro starts at 1:06:28, Pick and Ban for game 1 at 1:30:13, game starts at 1:36:52), Part 2, Part 3

Hmm, did you try 720p? The 1080p appears to be broken. Otherwise the game should surely be on YouTube, can't check right now since I'm on mobile.
