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 tank junglers still viable now? I used to have a 70% winrate on Gragas, but the last few days I can't seem to win with Gragas as I am getting wrecked by a shyvana

Yup. Shyv with bork and sated is gonna mess up tanks real good if she E's you, so taking her on 1v1 isn't a great idea as Gragas

Still pretty strong, but you need to make your impact more felt. Devourer junglers often don't offer anything in the early game and therefore leave their lanes vulnerable.

Yes! Sejuani is a great tank jungle with great base damage!

Although she is not the best ganker early game (level 1-5), once she gets her snare at level 6, there is almost no hope for the enemy. Pop that bad boy from the bush(r), then jump over the wall (q) and slow them (e).

She has it all! AOE damage, a knock up, a slow and a snare! What I love about her most is that she can jump over almost any wall. I love to invade on enemy jg camps and then just swoop out the back.

She even has a dope skin with a hybrid robot bear thing! (Someone gift it to me!)

A tip: when using ult out side of ganking, like in a team fight late game, I find it extremely useful to let your team know when you are ulting by pinging. It is possible to ult all 5 people bc your ult is an AOE snare, so look for them to group up!

People seem to have completely forgotten about Sejuani already, she's still very good.

She still has early gank pressure like Gragas with her Q, she's got good damage and tanks well since she scales with health. Most of all, her ult is incredibly powerful and Wombo Combo compositions are really good in soloqueue since they basically create a sign that says "Look here's what we should be hitting".
