2 second aoe taunt... nope not strong at all lol. early game his Q is such a good harrass in lane. I say its a better version of akali's Q because it deals damage without you needing to get right in the enemy's faces. His W I hardly ever use early since Shen doesn't need it. The E is an aoe taunting dash that can go through walls...its great for initiating, escaping and protecting your team. His ult gets him to help or in most cases save a teammate in danger in seconds. Its better than rammus and the ss tp since it gets you right into the heart of battle without having to go out of your way walking or tping to a more than likely somewhat distnat object.

Now I will give you reasons why Shen>Rammus. So Shen doesnt do as much damage as Rammus, thats a given. The taunt however is vastly superior. Rammus taunt is 3 seconds for one person, but Shen can taunt multiple people at a distance for 2 seconds each. Even if its just two peopole being taunted thats still betterfor thats 4 seconds of the enemies time wasted up to a maximum of 10 seconds. For another fact, Rammus is more of an offensive tank while Shen is more of a defensive tank. Rammus stirs up chaos for the enemy team and Shen protects his team like no other. Its not fair to say that more damage means better tank. If thats not enough, Shen can take the role of anything except ranged dps. He can be a tank, tanky dps, ap carry, tanky ap, jungle, he can be solo mid/top, hell even support if he has too. Shen can do all these roles to an amazing extent. Not many champs can do that without proper skills needed.

Oh, he's not just a ninja; he's a flippin' Ninja!
