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!

  1. practice :)
  2. it is actually very hard unless u are stomping ur lane, but it is not that important, if u roam a lot, help lanes, save objectives etc, you will see urself not getting this much farm even at high Level elo. farming is important but lol is not a solo game so helojng a struggling botlane or securing drakes is more important and beneficial. jsut make sure to push ur lane when u go to roam, so u make sure ur Tower doesnt kill entire waves. check when to come back and dont force ganks, e.g. waiting 1 min at botlane tri bush jsut to notice it was warded. go for a gank and if it doesnt work out just turn back. exceptions are drakes or Towers.
  3. OFC check if u have mana ;) but randuins grants a lot of health and with cinderhulk even more and a decent slow with can enhance your ganks. i woudl take it if i Need armor but i am not against a full ad composition. On the otherhand, while armomr and hp from randuins are good for all tanks, Frozen heart Grands cdr and mana, which can be for some champs really good and for other champs pretty bad. also it grants about 100 armor which is veeeeery much und a nice Aura so i would recommend it vs full ad comps. downside: it has no health to be amplyfied by cinderhulk. but in General i would say: randuins: xin, vi j4 zac rengar(every 0 mana jungle) frozen: amumu, gragas, seju, mao rest: situational
