Shens good if you get items. I personally rush Ionic spark, then sometimes aegis or some other tanky item.

I knew I should've taken the 15 minute dodge penalty.
I mean obviously I didn't help any, I lost my lane due to me being bad and being a first time Elise, but it didn't help that Yi tower dove Akali constantly and put her way ahead.
And then yeah, you can see what else happened. It was Xerath/Ryze bot.
I should've just taken the fucking penalty.

[QUOTE=Relaxation;38423165]Shens good if you get items. I personally rush Ionic spark[/QUOTE]
No, that's bad. Stop that. Only get Ionic Spark if you're way ahead and already have a Wits End.
I like the health and minion clear better than the MR on wits end.
Yes but there's no reason to get an Ionic Spark if you don't have the 40% AS bonus magic damage from Wits End already. Just because you "like it" doesn't make it good.
I just said i like he extra health and minion clear. Ionic spark even helps kill champions.
Ionic sparks helps his pushing much more than wits end, and as a shen you need to push unless you want the enemy top laner to take tower as soon as you ult
Yep. Also sometimes I won't even buy wits end, I don't need to focus on getting damage, I like to get tanky, split push, then ulti to team if there's a fight somewhere. A lot of times I'll just get super tanky, like warmogs, ageis, sunfire cape, atmas, etc... And if theres strong AP then I'd rather take the gold from wits end and put it towards FoN or something.
Attack Speed Cho, so far:
5/1/6
4/8/7 (ouch!)
10/5/11
I don't think he's as good as a more traditional AP Tank Cho'Gath, but he [I]does[/I] kick a lot more ass in 1v1 situations, and his overall damage output is much higher. Though he dies pretty quickly if focused.
What items would maximize his DPS?
Right now I go Phantom Dancer, Wit's End, Malady, a Guinsoo's Rageblade, and a tank item (usually frozen heart) and boots. I feel like I could be doing better, though. He does eat up Gangplank, though! He gave me trouble as AP Cho. I wonder if AS would better against Irelia, too? HmmMMMmmm.

Wits is still pretty good on shen, having very high AS gives shen surprisingly good burst with his W up since you proc the passive damage every 2 seconds which gives shen more better burst then you'd think, I sometimes take it over ionic if I decide to rush sunfire and I feel like I'll benefit more from the AP resistance but I'd say 8 or 9/10 times I take ionic first.
Wits end, Malady, and Madreds should be all you need for attack speed. Get those + GA + Frozen heart/FoN or another offensive item + boots and you take damage like a boss and dish out damage like a boss
@ BDA
If you want to practice lane matchups as AS cho sometime hit me up, i've been experimenting with it too

Stick to ap tank IMO. Me and my friend were discussing this today, ap cho is SO good. Rupture, Silence, then Feast and your dead, 4k hp just like that.

youre bad stop it
[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;38423788]youre bad stop it[/QUOTE]
What I like most about his comment is that he deluded himself into believing my reasoning was simply because I "like it", when I gave reasoning as to why I get it first.
Check out this gem

Eve would just stealth and stand still in minion waves. Oh, my friend and I also called jungle and mid, both of which were picked before we did, so we did duo bot.
Their Fizz ragequit after we murdered him twice in a row too.
And this reiterates why I never play ranked.
RIP BIG SPARKS Shen S3
No more crazy split pushing
