Talk:Shen/@comment-88.207.114.81-20120627232713

Ok tryed him today and i dont understand why people call him OP,he is strong but way from OP his Q is short ranged and deals ignorable dmg late,even during laning there are much better poking skills and it doesnt heal a lot,his shield is also nothing special without AP,there are much better shields in the game,his E is what makes him a tank but if you miss it you will be severly energy crippled for few seconds so it doesnt give much room for errors and his ulti is great skill but it is on really big CD and it doesnt guarantee you will save an ally because of 3 seconds channel and we all know how health bars of focused allies can drop easily in 3 seconds and after that you have to wait for a long time for cooldowns,good thing about ulti is it gives him global presence and in organized teams this can be used as great advantage (that is the reason why TF is used a lot by pros,but is kind of UP and underplayed in lower levels of play)..........that is a reason why Shen became so popular after they fixed some energy issues,teams could now use his ulti as a valuable asset and use shen as good tank(he was bad before).His passive is great and scales with health but unless you build significant AS and cripple your defenses it will not be OP and he has to do some damage,even tanks need some dmg and many tanks in this game deal way more dmg than shen and have much better CC.Overall although i am free week shen i consider myself good LoL player and i find this stupidity about OP shen without any sense.Only tanks that were really OP in this game were Alistair and Rammus before nerfs......
