      Shensei,
      Just went 8-0-12 in Emerald agianst a trist mid with this build, but I cooked with the 2% MS shard. After boots I was the ranged champion. Trist cant lane because I walk her down. Grasp procs without casting E into TRIST! Being the fastest ninja feels like the way.

    Hey Petu. I've been a long-time viewer and Bard main, and I wanted to let you know to put some respect on Bard's name, cause honestly we are the Shen mains of Support lane.
    We are determined. Tenacious. Never greed and always play for the team, care-taking all lanes and ready for a long distance save. We survive and endure. One life point is all we need. We escape the most insane situations. We do not relent. We hit the clutch engage when it matters most. Nothing ever - Oh look! A chime! Free value!
    Also, don't ask us what the fuck we are building or why we just oneshot you. We know we aren't meant to do that. We just don't care.

  • @Iketsu12
    @Iketsu12 5 місяців тому +1

    Hey =) Great video!
    You mentioned building hollow radiance in every game and against AD matchups bami's first and then dead mans. Would you still build hollow radiance for the waveclear (or some other reason?) even against a full AD team? Or would you turn the bamis into a sunfire? Or would you even build bamis and maybe go for something else, like a chain vest + tiamat (into titanic)? This is very specific and nitpicky, but I notice you didn't mention such a situation in the video.

    • @magicfragrances
      @magicfragrances 5 місяців тому +1

    Have you tried Experimental Hexplate as a third item? I think the movement speed it grants is really underrated. I find when I ult, the enemy team just runs away and it's hard to follow up unless I have DMP and Experimental Hexplate. The ultimate haste is also ok, but the attack speed feels like a wasted stat.

    I KNEW IT, ice gaunt. was nice but dead mans ia way better for shen, having a mini ghost always active it'a huge for a champ like Shen and usually you taunt with your team, very hard to not get a kill in that case, you really don't care about solo slows to do 1v1 and in team it's overkill, yes the AH on ice gaunt. is nice but you still got what you need to do stuff, this build (First 3 items, boots and the other two) gives everything shen needs: wavecelar, hp, ar, mr, ah, ms
    And i live the 4 item option, you can pick the supportive one or the "i need make a big play so the shield and tenacity will help", also good if you have a bounty, overall, 10/10!

    Dead Man's Plate is what I use in almost all situations. The speed is too good, it's 2 runes put together - important ones I might add.
    Have been doing Tank T.F. support for a while. I was picking up the Feather Boots for Slow Resistance - too many Sennas & Ashes for my liking & so on.
    Either stun/slow duration reduction through Tenacity Boots or best if you just get Greaves for Dewarding & for proccing your passive more. Whilst Dead Man's Plate just buffs you on offence & defence too! Feels too good to not get it 2nd or 3rd.

    Hey Petu i have been slowly climbing to masters this season with your trusty videos always by my side! I didn't like titanic playstyle and have been going bami into frozen gauntlet almost every game. Reason being that it's cheap, sheen passive, every stat you want and the slow allows you to dictate fights and get more q dragthroughs. I then build sundered if into a lot of melee champs or steraks if vs more ranged/cc. I usually only finish hollow if i need mr or if i am behind. I did always like deadmans though, i will see where i can fit it in. I know it's a bit more selfish build but what do you think of it?

    I think, hydra is situational, when i can dominate a match i pick hydra and go ahead, but when I see that y have enough dmg output in my team i switch to tank mode, in both ways shen does a lot of dmg, the difference is what do you need, more durability and progressive dmg or burst, thats the decision of each game.

    Would you also go for ignite and flash for toplane matchups? Mid gives you so much freem do roam the map but I think that in top you got really punished for picking ignite. You literally need to guarentee to stomp your lane otherwise the enemy champion will simply gain gold advantage taking your tower when you ult

    it's simple, buy hydra after, third item, u got hollow radiance for the wave clear sure, but what is a little extra op asf dmg gonna do? Just make you stronger lol, hollow radiance is nice for waveclear, so is titanic hydra, hollow radiance isn't so nice for fighting, though titanic hydra is :) Plus an extra auto to complete shen combos faster is always nice
