>Vorpal blade was fine as it was

You mean the part where you could win every lane by just throwing your extremely low cd, undodgeable blade at the enemy champion with its only cost being your fast-regenerating energy? Reworks aren't necessarily aimed at making champions stronger, they're aimed at making them more interesting to play and play against. 10-15 minutes of getting swords thrown around is not either of those things.

>Feint was kinda boring but it worked fine

Did it work? For yourself, yes, but for team play it was borderline worthless for actually helping allies(I say borderline because you can body block and get in the way). Was it interesting or in any way fun to use? No. It's just basically some free "fake" hp, and that's all. May as well replace it with a free hp passive in that slot with no active. New W ruins AD based champions for a few seconds, and that's honestly an enormous buff over a selfish shield.

>Where does the floating spirit sword fit in here?

Shen is a ninja who has been throwing magical swords at people for years, and who is designed for the least sneaky job in league, and you're just now questioning it?
