Personally, I think the jungle timers feature is just really nice. I would definitely use it to my advantage, since it is allowed by Riot.
This video has been in the making for the past two months and I certainly hope that the end result speaks for itself. The goal was to make a guide that would be relevant for multiple years. Thus, we refrained from discussing contemporary rune choices and itemization. These systems are constantly in flux, but champion mechanics tend to stay relatively constant (excluding reworks ofc). I hope all of you have had a nice start to the summer and wish you the best of luck in your endeavours!
Best regards, Petu
Man, we love you so much! Thank you a lot for sharing your knowledge about the champion. Now im leaving silver in LoL hahaha I also used your guides in wild rift and now im in diamond there!
Thank you so much! I found a champion that i feel connected!
Question, should i be running lethal shenpo every game while in bronze? or should i go back and forth between grasp and lethal depending on matchup?
Thank you both
@@michaelanderson5209 it depends, if the match is winnable (kayle, nasus) , you can abuse them with shenpo
If the matchup is a "skill matchup" you should go grasp
If the matchup is bad as hell (darius, gangplank) you should go fleet footwork
Also Shen Q gives you a little extra range . Thank you for all Petu :D
I'm waiting for "50 years of Shen experience: I now became Shen IRL" I'll be there to witness the metamorphosis😂
Mmm m m.
Man's gonna go into a cocoon soon and transform 💀
guys this is 2035 i already bought my sword and i'm training with my master Kong Jong Juan
best comment evver 😅😂😁😁😂😂😂😂
wholesome version of "How I became Ryze IRL"
These men deserve a trophy for how much they helped top mains and shen mains alike, just beautiful
I wish there was more content like this across multiple champs and roles. Such an amazing video! I'm lucky to be a shen main!
@@EVERYTYME Yeah, there are only a few content creators that do something like this. UJard is the one who I learned Kayle from, too bad he quit UA-cam :(
@@EVERYTYME check out coach curtis for midlane and nathan mott for jungle. They have done some similarly in depth videos. The production quality on this video is unbeaten by anything I have seen, though. wow
i dont play shen, or top
@@miguelmota5447 no, i hate xpet! Lost so many shen games ;) Watching this only let u think shen is good xDD...but then u get crushed and crushed and crushed xD
xPetu is probably one of if not the best provider of educational content for not only Shen but general strategy and macro. It's great to see you both collab on such a project like this and thank you for all the educational content you've delivered. You really inspired me to play Shen and nowadays I am a certified Shen main climbing the ranks. Thank you for all you've done man, Really appreciate it!
this. everything this man teaches can be applied to any champ.
The two best Shen mains making guides together and Standing United. Love your combined content.
I don't play shen, I don't play top, I don't even play any tank champ, but I always love watching your videos, you're such a chill UA-camr and give good information on how to actually improve mechanically for those that want to improve their skills!!
Ty for the content 🤗
I don't even play league and I'm currently watching an hour long guide about how to play shen
@@daniellima4391 bruh
The collab between giants, thanks for your guys' hard work in teaching the Shen community!
Not only I love Shen but also I'm majoring in math. You are an inspiration, keep up the good work:)
why is math related to this?
@@RavishingPimp because Petu majored in math
@@marcelocoto3245 oh that’s nice, he is such an amazing person, great to have him as a front image
@@RavishingPimp Petu often uses mathematics when he's creating builds or play styles. It's a good example of math that's actually fun and useful
@@marcelocoto3245 I thought he majored in METH oo
The Forbidden Techniques are out
Ngl this is the Best guide for a champion I've seen, every minute of this video is important
Thanks for this high quality video
The amount of effort put into this guide is tremendous. You really do cover every detail, not just throw in some general facts. My jaw dropped - ultra high quality guide, good job, thank you.
You and Shending are definitely the reasons I picked up and have stuck with Shen for so long. This kind of super in-depth content is something you do not see often, or at all, by other high elo OTPs.
Ok, I just started playing Shen after seeing you play on twitch and it's such a versatile champion and fun. I hope you guys continue to play Shen and posting videos. Tell Shending Help to stream as well!
Thank you for posting this awesome walk trough and explaining basic as well as advanced tactic for new players like myself .
What I misses out is how to understand more about the choice of items you need to adapt to.
This video is rated 7/5, hope you can do more like this in depth analyse of an awesome game.
the shen god himself
Professor fanboy :)
zwag and heiz and i0ki and professor akali and xpetu
Prof.akali pls 1 vs1 petu shen vs akali (my favourite champions)
@@yigido915 isn' t petu playing on euw?
@@kulek7119 dont worry, professor akali has alts
I already have xPetu subscribed and I'm notified when a new video comes out - and I'm always blessed by the content on this channel. But that Chapter II..... the purest form of gold I've seen. Shending Help, you just got a new subscriber.
I remember the time when I watched petu's river shen, which is the first video I watched in this channel, and the triggering factor for me to study the champion.
I was once an udyr main, but stopped playing ranked and spammed ARAM games due to my lack of self-control, and played at that manner for like 3-4yrs. But when I was interested in playing shen, I viewed petu's guides and tried to practice with it, and brought it into ranked once I got comfortable with shen.
I've reached masters last season on the philippines with shen. It was a great experience for me. But I stopped playing league now since becoming a science professor.
Still, these kinds of videos not only sparks my interest with shen, but also it kind of makes me rational with the steps, decision-making styles, and other core aspects of shen's kit that I can apply not only in-game (once I go back to playing), but also in real life.
Keep up the good work, and continue to inspire others, Legends!
Thanks for the comment and the support. Keep rocking!
xpetu upload is the same feeling as ulting bot and getting your adc a triple.
Awesome video as always! Ever since I started maining Shen end of last season I have been able to climb steadily. I'm in my first diamond promos ever, much thanks to your great guides! Keep up the good work man!
I've been playing Shen for like 8 years and I learned SO much from this video. Thank you so much!
I don't play League anymore (or even Shen at all) but your videos always have that special something that makes every second worth the watch and wait for a new video.
This is probably the highest level of production to ever grace a guide to a League champion, and we'll probably never get to see something like it for other champions. Truly special.
You know, if you ever want to branch out to making content about other things you're passionate about, I'm pretty sure there's some of us who will keep following you. Not many, probably, but just know that some of us stay for the xPetu, not only the high quality Shen gaming.
This video is literally distilled liquid GOLD. I considered myself a pretty good Shen player before, but this is such an eye opener. Great work both of you! The Shen community appreciates it.
Truly the ultimate proof that you guys are awesome. Thanks to bring this magnificient contribution to Shen's players community !
Petu I wish your all the best in your carrier as a fellow engineer! You have given us so much during these years, I hope you find and thrive in the things you Love.
Thanks for shending for the excellent collaboration as well.
Greeting dear Petu, glad to have you back! Your content is always incredibly insightful, and I believe your way of teaching is the most effective one, in terms of allowing the learner to perceive the thought process behind each decision. Shending Help has a very refined and deep game sense, but I think he sees the game in a completely different way than most other players, which makes it kinda hard for a lower elo player to think like he does. His efficiency is all about the strategic aspect of the game, and while that is very important (and winning is always nice), I think you also have a very refined fighting and carry mentality, which is why I love your way of playing Shen so much.
Playing like Shending Help is good for your LP gains, and every one should think like that some (most?) times, but Petu knows how to put up a good fight, and he knows how to have fun playing Shen. That's the main take away for me, from this video. I just got D1 for the first time, with Shen being my most played and highest winrate champ, and I owe a lot to your content and passion for allowing me to be better at the game, while also having a lot more fun while doing so.
Thank you both very much for this very insightful content!
This is such an incredible in-depth guide. Ive just picked Shen up but I already feel like he will quickly become one of my mains and I will be referring to this video a looot
3days, only passed 3 days after this video release and thx to it i'm finally gold after being stuck for 2 months in silver. It only took 3 days to get those 200LP i needed, and it was so easy and fast to climb thx to the advice and knowledge of your guides. Thank you so much
nice job man
Been maining shen for months (went from gold to plat 4) and was surprised how much stuff I learned from this video. Thanks y’all!
Really love Shending Help's contribution to the video. He's super clear and articulate. Love it
I can watch you talk for hours on end, great video, insane quality. Keep it up Petu!
And much love to Shending for the colab
Followed some of your Shen guides last time I tried to make a solo ranked push. He fell off my roster for whatever reason. Picked him up again and decided to come back. This was a great guide. Thank you for your effort!
I remember a game where I was matched against a Vayne top. Was not looking forward to it but was also willing to experiment and learn from the experience. So, in true xPetu memes fashion, I took ignite with Phase Rush and Nimbus Cloak. Needless to say, that Vayne did not expect the triple q auto, taunt, ignite and fell before getting over 10 cs. After the first kill, I played splendidly around the minion wave, slow pushing and building it up. The Vayne continued to underestimate the early minion damage and my well timed w's that would always deny at least 2 of Vayne's true damage dealing 3rd autos. It was the first time, I've tasted the power of early game Shen as I always had confidence problems, thinking I don't have enough damage to all in all the time and second guessing my abilities. That Vayne game really opened up my Shen and I'm not afraid to experiment different runes and builds on Shen. I would've felt sorry for that Vayne for the absolute beating I gave her but it's a Vayne top so there was no mercy lol.
I would never have thought to take phase rush with shen but it makes so much since against these quick range match ups. They always zone me so hard :(
amazing video as always xpetu, I can't thank you and Shending Help enough for the video and you guys can't realize how much I learn, even when I main Shen and I'm already in Diamond, thank you
While I was watching, I literally sat like on a lecture in my college and wrote down everything important xD.
Incredible guide thank you very much.
Fantastic guide, most comprehensive guide i have ever seen and a lot of what is in your video is good for any lane role like how to zone properly from xp and those types of decisions when you are ahead or behind, melee or ranged. I never thought I would play shen but now i want to lol.
i'm so glad you got a sponsor for this video. the amount of work that went into this was actually insane
I don't play much ranked, sticking to primarily Arams or bot games, cus I like my gaming experience to stay chill and light hearted, and I don't play Shen much but in this video you highlighted exactly how much of his damage output I have been missing from not understanding q placement, and the stacks it provides. The next time I pick him up in an aram, I stand a way better chance of bonking them, rather than just using him as a tank with cc and damage reduction.
You're my favourite league youtuber despite not using Shen often. Seeing you pull off things I'd never even consider, and hearing you laugh whether it goes excellently, or fails excellently is great. A lot of other league content people only seem to enjoy when their plays work out perfectly and the game is a stomp. It's nice to be reminded that the game can be enjoyed even when things don't work out quite as well as you'd hoped.
Loving the frequent video output lately ♡
That Ornn in the first fundamentals clip got absolutely schooled!!!
I've won like my past 15 plays with Shen, and I didn't know HALF of what this video shared.
I am feeling like you just created a monster.
THANKS PETU!
Love how chill and calm u r xpetu i always use ur combos in game and ppl do respect me for saving their life countless time with well timed R thanks to u keep up buddy🏳️
From mexico: thanks so much for this class of videos, they are perfects , i learn to much, not only for plays shen but for the game too
Wow, probably one of the best guides out there, this realy brings shen into the light! Amazing, you did a great job guys! Thank you!
Legitimately the best guide on any champ I've seen. Super appreciate the help!
A little over a year ago, I had an experience playing with an ally who was carrying Shen and carried the entire game in an incredible way and that's when I decided to try the champion. Little by little I began to like him because his skills became very dynamic in this process I got to know your channel xPetu and thanks to the thousand tips and montages of yours I got to be among the 50 best Shen's in my region (LAN) thank you very much
This video is really good. I hope everyone will be watching it just to understand the Art of Shen.
Thanks a lot xPetu and Shending Help, keep it up!!!
this video was the best i have ever seen thx for you to help shen players to understand how you play better it rly was soooo helpfull thx thx thx
I'm here from I0kis channel, this was really eye opening and fascinating. I look forwards to playing some more shen in top and support!
xPetu,
you are the first youtuber I found, that provided this big amount of information for one particular champion. I've been searching for a while to find the champion I want to one trick. FINALLY! There it is! SHEN. You helped me pretty well with that video. It's the first Video I've seen of you. You deserved my sub and many other people subscribing. This content covered all my questions. While watching the laning phase part I thought about: "Yeah cool, but what should I do against ranged champs?". Just a few minutes later you guys explained it. Thanks!! By the way, I love when guides are like 1h+. How else should you learn something?
I can't explain how much do I love the videos you make. I started to play shen because of a friend back in season 8 but it was you who made me stick with this champ it was you who made me enjoy it and it was you the one who made all this year's playing some of the best.
Loved so much this vod, thank you for the breakdown! Very useful, learned a lot.
I WAS JUST WATCHING YOUR CLIMBING GUIDE AND YOU UPLOAD A NEW VIDEO, THANKS XPETU
earned my sub. I wish more people did proper guides like this.
Wow... I'm lost for words. You made me look at the way I play shen completely different. Will use all of the advices given in this video to keep up my recent 8 game winning streak with shen🤯
13 by now🤯
Haven't finish the video but I already know this is some top tier guide!! Love both of yaaa!!
I really do appreciate and thank you, i first started playing shen after i saw u on youtube while being in gold 4. now im plat 2 still with shen and on my way to diamond. love u
Only one thing I will add, one more reason why your videos are the best is cuz they are hilarious, absolutely love every single second of them, keep up the good work, we love you
Omfg, I haven't seen such methodical guide on any game before! Super content, no bullshit!
thank you very much to the both of you this the best in depth guide for a champion I have ever seen
Shen is very satisfying to play at least to me. Thx for all the gr8 info!
been playing adc for over 6 years now, finally enjoying a different lane thanks to shen. appreciate the helpful guide! subbed^
This was very good information on overall wave control too!
Enjoyed ^^
A huge work u done, thanks you for such high quality content.
River Shen one love 😁😊
Taking notes, I adore the informative style and examples provided! Great video!
Great video Petu I've missed this content. Also good job to Shending Help too.
I love your content dude! Im sadly not playing much top but when i do and play shen your videos helped me completely stomp the game! love it!
Geez, the amount of knowledge in this video was superb, thank you xPetu!
The reason Petu used E flash there is because he can't resist having fun. I love how the included the Garen clip you were analyzing in the last stream.
Great work as always, and best guide I have ever seen for Shen. Very straight forward advice with very clear examples and very logical approach to everything.
Many thanks to the both of you and keep up the good work.
i just started to main shen and by watching this vid and some of ur guides i finally reached gold 4 from silver :DD ( big respect and love )
This video should be put into a public broadcasting archive.
I've just come back to trying to play league again and Shen was my main way back from his launch till around 2014. Shen's changed a lot since then and I'm glad I found this guide as I didn't understand his reworked skills. This was an awesome guide!
Bro I don't even play Shen but I love your videos so I watched the whole thing anyway (I guess it'll help me play against Shen haha). I hope one day I find such a good guide for my own mains (Azir and Taliyah). Thanks for your efforts!
Gracias XPetu y tu tambien Shending Help. Les agradezco mucho esta guia.
Realmente hay muchos tip´s y sobre todo fundamentos importantes del Early y late game que me encantan y que he pasado por alto. Muchas gracias por tomarse el tiempo de hacer esta gran guia.
Lo quiero mucho señor petu
X2
mi dios petu!
Very well made video, couldn't have thought of anything better
Two legends, ty for all the tutorials and the info!
I only recently decided to come back to my main champ pool after stopping on Shen and Mordekaiser for some reason. Hearing Xpetu say how they wanted to make this a video to withstand the tests of time for the next generation of Shen players makes me feel like im a part of something and bad for giving up on Shen even if only temporarily because of a few losses I had since I tend to overanalyze my losses. Thanks a lot for the video Shensei.
Awesome video, guys! Congratulations
thank you for the efforts you put toward learning shen and for free even , you really are a passionate teacher
i've been maining shen before and after it's rework and i have yet to learn a lot about playing him, thanks a lot for this shending help and petu.
Incredible video Petu, thank you
So nice to see you again with great content as usual
THE BEST Shen guide on the whole planet!
Big up to you XPetu, i m main shen as support, and i ve learn a lot thx to you
Thank you for making this. I’ve been a support main wanting to learn top for the longest time and Shen seemed to be the one for me, but when it came to playing him, I never understood why I couldn’t win certain things with him. I feel like this will help a lot with my Shen and my growth in the game overall!
Advice from a Top main, it's a really solid pick and gives u the ability to be everywhere in the map just existing in the match. Playing top means u are isolated from the game 80% of the time and is not so uncommon having a 0/20 botlane after 15 minutes, Shen is the solution at this problem. Tanks have always utility, they have a good scaling and the meta actually supports them, but Shen with his ultimate has the potential to win the other lane, u can totally chill in yours and overturn a fight in bot or mid, u can threaten a tower or an inhibitor while your team contest a drake or a baron. I picked him cause of the sense of futility that some games gave me before i started playing Shen, i played a lot of Mordekaiser and Sett and there are games when u can't win the lane and u are fighting to have a 10 minions lead while bot is 0/8 and u can't help, u feel totally useless, Shen doesn't have this problem. Of course being a tank gives him less carry potential but he does his job and has some good chunk of damage. Absolute ban if u don't know how to play around them Darius Mordekaiser and Illaoi, they keep u under tower with low hp and u can't ult or back or u will lose the tower. Simple game style, get as many Q drag as u can and play around passive, getting 3 or 4 shields in a 20 seconds fight will save your life. Obviously u will need time to master him but he is not a very skilled champ so it will not take a lot of time so don't be discouraged from the first losses and enjoy the climb
Thank you so much for creating this video!!
Thanks for this video, xPetu. I will use this on Wild Rift since I'm not playing League PC anymore.
An In-Depth guide for Mastering Shen will make my plays better and other aspiring Shen users as well. Keep up the good work, Sensei. 🙏🏼
This movie is shending goosebumps down my spine! Well done
This is really one hella good guide. Both from i really skilled shen mains. I really learned a lot from this. I'm really grateful for this. Thabks xPetu and Shending Help 😁😁😁
thank you for everything you do petu
Amazing work you two!
I learned SO MUCH from this, not just about Shen 😮 The second last clip where you split push top and then R on Vayne (although she dies), this is the play I always go for. Really opened my eyes how you explained why this play is too risky and potentially game-losing. In my mind, it's always: push side lanes = win games. But that's too one-dimensional and probably why I throw a lot of winnable games.
what an amazing vid
eo the amount of educational value and entertainment is insane , how could anyone make a better guide ! 😍
this is such a nice video good job petu
High quality content and very in-depth guides!
Collective 200 years of Shen experience in the making of this video
Blessed by a Petu video, thank you
This was high quality. :-) Thank you !!!
Todella informatiivinen video. Kiitos!
As a Shen main as well, I can confirm this is pretty good! (Lol this is a super impressive and in depth video). Thank you Petu!
A true masterpiece. Maybe even your magnum opus. Hope to see more from you someday.
Absolutely love this man this is by far the greatest breakdown for a champion.
Your work is amazing! Thanks a lot!
