      +AJFilms Have you played it? The PBE forum has been full - literally CRAMMED FULL - of people begging them to revert this shit, with no evidence that anybody has read a word of it. The sword feels more like you're dragging a big dumb rock behind you, he now has no way to farm at range, he doesn't have any guaranteed damage reduction when he uses E, and worst of all, that sword that you have to focus on forever has next to no actual impact.
      Visually he's great, but this is the worst gameplay rework since... well, since anyone. This is gonna be worse-received than Karma and Cassiopeia combined.

    • @Envy_Dragon
      @Envy_Dragon Před 8 lety

      Dan610XX Presumably because his W makes him flat-out immune to the enemies he taunts, but...
      1) You'd need to either E into your sword, or use QW immediately after, which requires something like 300 energy
      2) W doesn't block abilities or on-hit effects so god help you if you taunt Kog'maw
      3) His cooldowns are ridiculously massive aside from his Q, which doesn't actually provide any tank stats and will drain your energy pool really fast.
      Pretty much all of his tankiness comes from his passive now, which is neat and all but you have to be hitting enemies or allies constantly for it to be effective... and his kit doesn't make that easy or even rewarding anymore.

    • @PaladinfffLeeroy
      @PaladinfffLeeroy Před 8 lety +10

      +danni r. Well good! Let them focus on that!!!Í don't even want new fucking champions in there. All that's gonna do is make balancing the game harder for no reason other than feeding more shit to the never satiated shitmongers that make up a large part of the player base.
      Warwick, Urgot, Yorick, Singed, Galio, Nunu, Rammus, Swain, Cho Gath and Aatrox could use some reworking too. But nah, we need another champion that copies the skills of already existing ones add to the game.
      A lot of champions aren't even viable anymore and it's a stupid thing that Riot only wants to focus on the top tier players because the game just isn't fun anymore unless you go full not give a fuck mode.
      I have no fun trying to play seriously in this game anymore.
      Especially when compared to Heroes of the Storm. Their jungle actually does something besides give being a supplier of resources. Their turrets/keeps actually do something. Not just one flimpsy turret that just stands there.
      If I were Riot I'd focus on reworking champions and bringing more balance to the table. Trying to solve a few problems regarding toxic play, like Zed. It's just not fun to play against him. You step close to try and farm and boom, you're half hp from full by just a shadow double Q and spin in less than a fucking second. A champion like Vel'koz can't keep up with that because he actually has to hit several skillsshots, has no mobility and isn't AD based thus doesn't get the "Riot Attack Damage privilege Seal of Approval". On top of having more ranged on his abilities zed can also jump to his shadow? If he misses his abilities he can still deal good enough damage with auto attacks. If Vel'koz misses his abilities he's a fucking sitting duck with nowhere to run...

    • @Danny.0788
      @Danny.0788 Před 8 lety +3

      Paladin Leeroy I tried explaining it to you as to why they take a long time getting new stuff out, apparently you still cant grasp the idea of how a business is run. Fun fact: The founders of Riot Games Brandon Beck & Marc Merrill don't add or input any new content to the game, they simply approve the stuff that gets put out or not. Riot is a GLOBAL company made up of thousands and thousands of employees who all have their own input as well. Don't expect to things run your way. Also, this goes back to "You can't make everyone happy." Me, personally I have no problems laning against Zed, because I've learned the match ups, I've learned how to counter him and play against him. You know what was real toxic play?? Tristana with a DFG, a supposed ADC can blow you with a DFG abilities and 2 abilities, how the fuck was balanced? It wasn't and so they fixed that "toxic game" play.. Same thing with Veigar, now it's easier to dodge his Stun, so he doesn't just blow you up with a DFG and his Ult when you have no AP. Same shit with Master Yi, his Q would scale off AP & he would heal for ridiculous amounts of HP, they fixed his toxic play. And as for Vel'Koz I'm not sure if you read the Red Post, but in the most recent interview that's what they will be focusing on this year "immobile mages" Again if you can't handle patience with Riot, I highly suggest that you never marry or have children.

    • @PaladinfffLeeroy
      @PaladinfffLeeroy Před 8 lety +1

      danni r. I have patience but I don't feel like some of the things they do are heading the right way.
      Yes I know Riot is a global company, so what?
      Yes and I am glad they fixed that but the game doesn't feel balanced at all, last season was the same thing. I'd just think that i'd be a better thing to focus on the balance of a game so that all players may enjoy the game equally instead of a handful because their playstyle is being supported by Riot or their playstyle is currently the best thing in the game.

    • @Danny.0788
      @Danny.0788 Před 8 lety +1

      Paladin Leeroy Again, "You cant make everyone happy" You know how difficult it is to make something very well balance where everyone feels that they have fair play, counter play, etc, and on top of that have a very aggressive competitive scene with very skilled pro players that play these same exact champions that you do in your normal's and ranked games? It's extremely difficult, because guess what? That little change you make in game, is going to AFFECT EVERY SINGLE PLAYER, and you know very vell that millions and MILLIONS of people play this game. For example with what 20,000 people will like, 200-400 of them may not and you know what? Riot is more than happy to accomplish that, now imagine that on the MILLIONS scale? It's pretty overwhelming, but you wouldn't know that since you're not put under that type of pressure. Me, personally, I'm happy in the direction Riot is taking their game. Yes what they do takes time, but shit I'd prefer them to take their time and consider all options regarding gameplay, updates, balacing etc.. before making a final decision on what gets put out in the game.

      The visitor101 Depends on the stress on the "e" it can mean both god or caution.

      Steven Wang man. and they say english is the hardest language to learn. Anyways. Despite the true meaning of when's name i think they both fit with his play style. when playing shen you have to be cautious and check the mini map to see where you should use your ult. And shen's like a god because he can save anyone he wants to

    It bothers me how much players hate the rework on Shen. Shen was the first of the Ninjas I bought, and the fact that they finally took the time to give him a viable rework to where he will see more play is amazing to say the least. Alas you haters will continue to hate, but I for one find his rework to be Shensasual.

    This looks really awesome, but I'm kinda sad Kennen didn't appear once in the entire video. I mean, he is still part of the Trio which keeps balance! I wish Riot would just give him a new splash art.

    The brothers are accurate to their players. Shen is for players who are actually playing with the team, while Zed is for players who thinks they are the team...

    Is it just me or does Shen's model look HUGE?

    • @TheHashCrackingSlasher
      @TheHashCrackingSlasher Před 8 lety +2

      +The Zecromancer Thats the point, he got a model size increase like alot of other tanks did

      +The Zecromancer He's a ninja. But he's a tank. How do you make a ninja look tanky? Well, add some more-than-usual armor and make him look bigger overall.

      @Ilandria. Před 8 lety

      +The Zecromancer Most reworks make champions larger, go back and look - even squishies like TF are much larger than they were. I think it's mostly for more readability and design space for the artists.
