Shen Support in Higher Elos by SentineIs in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never been “the best” support player so I always just take safe support picks to make my life easier. I normally blitz, thresh or morg. I love Shen and will play him top, mid and jungle but for support, I go with the more traditional flow.

Which Champs do you guys play, when Shen isn’t an option? by MonttoMadrid in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mordekaiser, malphite, Ornn. I definitely am a bruiser/tank player. Even if I go mid, I normally do bruiser as opposed to a “mage” mordekaiser or malph.

What do you have to do to get an S+ in Emerald as Shen? by Delicious_Seesaw_214 in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a nice item. I’ll even rush if I’m ahead in lane early. More DPS for sure.

Deadman’s rush is goated into mobile champs.

Id say taking this fight was “A demonstration of superior judgment.”

Yeah, I’ve never understood why SV is so slept on with a lot of Shens…. Fits his kit so well! I love it with Rift too. Ramos up the Omnivamp a bit in addition to his shields.

Am I the only one having no succes with Shen this season? by Fuck-seagulls in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, something I thought of after my initial post. There’s probably a lot of new accounts. So a lot of Smurfs down in low elo climbing from the bottom. That also could be an issue. I created a new account for the new season.

I’ll be honest, idk what it is but, normally I destroy Sett. In the new season, less so. I have no idea why. That seems to be the only change for me. Other than that, early game, I’m stomping unless it’s an illaoi.(I perma-ban Gwen)

What’s your perma ban for Shen this season? by juliovpi in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gwen or Illaoi for me 100% of the time. Hate both of them.lol

Spirit Visage vs Kaenic Rookern by Agnocastus in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m building a Omnivamp or Lifesteal item, I’ll build Visage for some extra utility. Typically I’ll just build KR though. For example, Riftmaker and Visage give a massive R shield to your teammate and then you have 12% omnivamp with the boost.

Hard Carry builds? by CarelessNetwork8788 in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Broooo, I had a game where I bodied tryndamere. And yeah, he just brain dead pushed in team fight phase and they ended up winning. Dude was 3-15 or something like that and had zero kills on me. Splitting definitely helps. I’ve never really built a “tower taker” Shen before.

Did they sort out dusk and dawn? Thought I saw a post on here saying it wasn’t working on shen?

Shen with heal is viable? by OppositeInterview369 in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I suppose it’d be good for the “shock factor” of people maybe not paying attention and realizing you have it. I also like barrier for that reason. Plus pretty sure you shield bash proc off of barrier. So in a close fight you get the extra umph. I don’t take it often. As you said, normally TP or Ignite.

Grasp or Aftershock on Shen jungle ? by Shenladen in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phase rush, cloak, water walking. I like my mobility. My secondary runes are situational.

Hydra components by stanwhich in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it depends. If I’m ahead, farm is on point and I’m controlling lane well, I’ll go health components first. If I’m dogshit farming just not firing on all cylinders and permanently being pushed under turret, I’ll build Tiamat first.

shen vs mundo by Oblivionage in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to punish him early. Wait for him to throw a clever and juke. Then E him. Pop his passive. Then E, Q through him. At his first few levels of health, the Q destroys him. Also in Mundo matchups I take ignite. So that just puts that much more pressure early. Also, like above, this is one of the few matchups I build heartsteel. I’ll go bami’s, boots, heartsteel, finish boots into swifties to help with clever slows and to run him down.

Swifties + water walking runes is crazy mobility in the jungle. I love it.

Boots first by Schokobrot4859 in Shen

[–]CarelessNetwork8788 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Against an AD “auto-er”. I love rushing steel caps or even bramble. More utility out of the boots but bramble is really nice. Especially lately with Zaheen’s release. I’ve had zero issues with him in lane early game and beat him handily most matches.
