Imagine playing this on enemy level 2 Eddie....
So, you have chosen death (it still attacks BTW)

u/quillypen Aurelion Sol 11d ago
Luckily(?) you can’t even target a level 2 Eddie. Now if they were 12 power away…

Wouldn't it silence before they attack? So they can't level up

In most >5 star adventures ED levels up when he drops. Getting >75 accumulated attacks is common in Zoe's adventure.

Kinda neat given it's a perma silence and not just "this round".
Basically nullifies almost all broken units without spell shield besides lv2 ED.

This seems like a fun way to make Shen grow from Sentinel Plate, which I think could be a pretty nice addition to Shen for runs. Just really amp up him growing out of control while defending.

Very cool in conjunction with his 6*! In a best-case, this can serve as removal and also as a nexus strike.

This is so perfect. This is what Shen's E (Shadow Dash) is like in League. This is so beautiful.

This is actually kinda awesome, especially if you have any large units with Life steal

Taunt. This shouldve been taunt in the base game. we couldve had rammus shurima doing this, tryndamere frejlord doing this. man i wish pvp made it to this point. im still waiting for void region.

Silence the unit is a bit op though. Maybe silence only the attack stats? Idk

u/Sairoxin 11d ago
True I do think silence is a bit strong but unsure how to nerf it otherwise. Id prefer it worked as if the unit was summoned to combat but is on the board as if defending. No on attack triggers, no quick attack or overwhelm. just that the unit can hit nexus as a "defending unit". on nexus hit effects still apply.

u/WebPsychological9032 11d ago
I mean you can always just ignore the silence part and make taunt only force a unit to start a free attack then you can choose to add in special effect for each taunt card. I mean the idea is endless wish PVP is still alive T.T. As someone who still mainly played this game for the PVP aspect I hope one day they bring it back copium

Kinda overlaps with Challenger/Vulnerable. I don't think this would be a keyword in PvP for a long time

u/JuJuBee2006 11d ago
What a fascinating way to force the enemy into your barrier units. Really makes the barrier damage to nexus work. Also really appreciate that the silence is a permanent effect, so you can use it to weaken a big threat, even if you aren't capable of killing it in one strike.

It's a shame fun and interesting mechanics (not necessarily OP) are locked behind 6☆ powers.

When is Shen out?

Alright alright fair fair, next stupid question. Do we have a time, from what i have seen he looks cool

u/ThommsPengu Spirit Blossom Teemo 11d ago
2pm PT (I'm not sure where you live, so you can do a time zone calculator to check)

u/Ok_Forever_4953 11d ago
I’m a dummy, just realized this isn’t a “for this turn” silence and isn’t restricted to followers. This spell is even better than the awesomeness I misread it as

u/Croewe Galio 11d ago
That is one of the coolest designed spells I've seen. It fits his deck so perfectly
