@Amirus I agree with you, because to be fair, it takes a very high IQ to understand Tales of Runeterra: Ionia. People making jokes without taking these videos seriously.. smh
PROJECT: LUKE its not shen's fault. He is simply teaching akali a lesson. A scenario which she will face with a test not only with her decisions but also her pure heart to act on danger.
Akali: Can't we just bend the rule? He's a kid! Shen: R - 100s R - 99s R - 98s Shen signals kid to fall back. Shen signals kid to fall back. Shen signals that enemies are missing. * you must wait before issuing more pings.* * you must wait before issuing more pings.* * you must wait before issuing more pings.* * you must wait before issuing more pings.* * you must wait before issuing more pings.*
Shen gives Akali his sight too see the seeds that need to be planted to return balance, Shen thinks that Akali sees them (she even glances at them a few times) before she rushes in to attack. He was trying to teach Akali and the kid a lesson about balance, he didn't want the kid to die. When he tells Akali that "the balance must be returned" he wasn't talking about the kid dying, he was indirectly telling her to plant the seed to return balance
I think it's more, there's more than one way to restore balance. When 2=2, but 1>2, you can either subtract from 2, or add to 1, to restore balance. The guardian was going to subtract, Akali added just in time. Shen was totally fine with the kid dying, as he is the eye of twilight. But akali being young and impressionable, took actions into her own hands.
Also at 0:25 when akali pulls out her weapon he sarcastically said " with your steel?" Which means that shen was already setting up that violence is not the only way to restore balance.
@@onlyhuman3 Shen has even faster reaction time than Zed which is super fast , he could've saved them in the blink of an eye but he knew that wasn't necessary
The way I saw it both of them were teaching each other a lesson, both Akali who doesn't know how to deal with something other than violence, Shen being taught there's another way for balance to take shape. Just my own take
You know it just occurred to me so long after watching this originally, Shen simply said 'The balance must be returned'. He didn't state how, and Akali just assumed 'Kill the child'.
Yeah that's the whole point. Shen was trying to teach a lesson to the impulsive Akali. You can even see how Akali panics when she realizes that her mindless use of force without analyzing the situation nearly got the kid killed. It's basically a Kinkou training of "using force only as a last resort".
The kid years after telling this story to his grandsons : and then the hot chick with a mask helped me plant a seed to defend myself from a giant tree monster, while some blue eyed psychopath wouldn't stop talking about balance in the background.
I think Shen knew Akali would figure it out. If Akali would have been killed that would have tipped the scales to the other side, trading two lives for one, Akali found another way to bring balance.
To be fair, these were made for the games to cross promote one another. You'd be surprised but there are a decent amount of LoR players who don't play League.

I think an important part of restoring the balance, as Shen speaks of it, is not just in planting the sapling and restoring life to the forest for the life that was taken from it. The boy's selfish act was also balanced out by Akali's selfless defense of the child. You could definitely argue that it's for the drama. That it's just how it panned out, saplings take time to grow, etc. etc. - but the sprout was not a smol boi. That was a full twig in like a second - and it only started to grow after Akali's (attempted) self-sacrifice in shielding the boy.
@@dieptrieu6564 Its a lesson within the lesson, a convient lesson gor Akali in a convient situation with a lesson for the kid to not chop down magic trees.

For those saying shen wanted to kill the kid. He didn’t Right at the beginning he questions akali when she says she is going to teach him a lesson with her steel. You have to remember noxians are invading ionia and everybody is dealing with them by sword. Not the kinkou, the kinkou seek a peaceful way. Even some members of the kinkou advocate for a more direct confrontation with the invaders. Here shen showed akali the way to “teach noxians a lesson” and restore the balance peacefully.
@@Futuristic271 Nobody said the Kinkou were perfect. Every faction in Runeterra has its benefits and its faults. There is no clear "good guy" or best way to deal with any situation. Its a really cool dynamic.
For everyone mad at Shen; he literaly is trying to teach people that they have to deal with their own actions Edit; I also did forget to mention; Akali literally only saw violence as the means to an end. Cannonically Shen is faster than even Zed and Zed has insane reaction time. Shen could easily save those two at the last second. Someone responded with something that I think was def worth mentioning; "When he saw Akali plant the seed he knew that he didn't need to intervene." Which I totally agree with. Tbh I think this story is clever because it's reflective of all of you who are not support mains >:)
Also, when akali said "He must be taught a lesson" to which Shen asked "With your steel"? Basically he is trying to teach both Akali and the kid about actions...
Love how their character types actually reflect in their body types as well, like Akali being leaner because she's an assassin and shen being buffer and taller because he's a tank
Bruno Fernandez But sadly he never knew that his father is still alive (SPOILER ALERT!) (Zed was keeping it as a secret for many years now),but later on be killed by Zed himself after they captured Jhin in piltover.
I view Shen as very intelligent. The “test” shen was talking about was probably what she would do to save the kid. Shen kept trying to “bait” her into failing by pressuring her to let the kid die. To me, Akali passed shens test by saving the boy. When Akali demanded they bend the rules, Shen did not object, and actually began to observe her test. Edit: Shen was more than likely talking about restoring balance and not necessarily the kid as some have pointed out. Unless riot is painting a more heroic picture of Shen rather than just a crazy guy who doesn’t care what happens as long as the balance is restored.
And then we have the player - the actuall summoner - (the one who can control all champs if he wishes - but then we have riot, who dont allow us this) Press R to secure carry, NO
Shen is basically Kuai Liang (Sub-Zero) from Mortal Kombat. He is a wise leader and teacher. He does not love nor hate. Not good but, not bad either. He's always staying neutral. He only acts when his duty wills it.
Of course it's similar, it's made by the same animation studio. And yes I agree, would love an Ionian animation. From what I hear Arcane season 2 might involve noxus and I'm guessing season 3 might be the noxian invasion on ionia...but keep in mind, those are just rumours for now.

He was actually testing akali to see if she could restore balance without letting him die.

Gottem.
Me playing Shen: AFK Farming At Peace
My Akali: pinging for help in river
My Jungler: pinging for help in river
.......
Me: I T I S A L R E A D Y 2 v 2 T H U S B A L A N C E D
HAHAHAHA
Lmaooo
Farming involves killing those poor inocent minions.. not peaceful at all xd
River shen
ohohoh ahhaha
Akali: HE JUST A KID MAN
Shen: DEATH IS DEATH
this wasn't the lesson he was trying to teach tho...
Death like a wind. Akali
he's a "kid man"
Akali: "Why do I keep getting nerfed??"
Shen: "We have to restore the balance"
Akali: "He's just a kid"
Shen: "I think I have Alzheimer's cuz I dont remember asking"
That's funny.
Original
smart
incredible
brilliant
For those saying shen wanted to kill the kid. He didn’t
Right at the beginning he questions akali when she says she is going to teach him a lesson with her steel.
You have to remember noxians are invading ionia and everybody is dealing with them by sword. Not the kinkou, the kinkou seek a peaceful way. Even some members of the kinkou advocate for a more direct confrontation with the invaders. Here shen showed akali the way to “teach noxians a lesson” and restore the balance peacefully.
The kinkou's actions were also costing lots of Ionian lives
TheMinuteCamel yea that’s why zed brought his own order in
Justin Nguyen and why akali ended up leaving the kinkou
@@Futuristic271 Nobody said the Kinkou were perfect. Every faction in Runeterra has its benefits and its faults. There is no clear "good guy" or best way to deal with any situation. Its a really cool dynamic.
macrofa go noxians are not the invaders, they bring freedom.
Guess we found out how to beat late game Maokai guys
Sacrifice the ADC boys. We going home.
With Ivern's W?
By planting a tree?

akai: we must do something
shen: IF HE DIES, HE DIES
fair trade I would say
math is math!
Keeping the balance don't allways mean doing the rigth thing.
Shen: "It iiiis what it iiiiiis"
An eye for an eye
For everyone mad at Shen; he literaly is trying to teach people that they have to deal with their own actions
Edit; I also did forget to mention; Akali literally only saw violence as the means to an end. Cannonically Shen is faster than even Zed and Zed has insane reaction time. Shen could easily save those two at the last second. Someone responded with something that I think was def worth mentioning; "When he saw Akali plant the seed he knew that he didn't need to intervene." Which I totally agree with. Tbh I think this story is clever because it's reflective of all of you who are not support mains >:)
He was also the one who made the plant grow just before the Guardian hit the kid and Akali
Yep. And too many people won't like that.
Also, when akali said "He must be taught a lesson" to which Shen asked "With your steel"?
Basically he is trying to teach both Akali and the kid about actions...
U right
yeah, but death is a pretty steep cost to a child making a mistake
Shen: "See as I see"
Akali: "Everything is kda now"
Hears kpop*

@Yol Riin Lask You are cringe incarnate
Love how their character types actually reflect in their body types as well, like Akali being leaner because she's an assassin and shen being buffer and taller because he's a tank
Akali: "he's just a kid"
Shen: "mmmMmmMmmn balance"
@Golgiro 67 Hi, I am PlasmatheShocker11's sister typing through his account. I just wanted to let you know that he died laughing at your joke.
I mean, he did watch his father tortured and killed to get those eyes, so he's most likely ok with that kid dying in the name of balance.
Bruno Fernandez But sadly he never knew that his father is still alive (SPOILER ALERT!) (Zed was keeping it as a secret for many years now),but later on be killed by Zed himself after they captured Jhin in piltover.
@@gunlyte4661 Wait, Jhin is in jail again? Give me a break!
Bruno Fernandez Sharingan?
Shen: Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
My main champ, he holds everything to be balance, both dark and good side
balance spares no one.
Rework Akali: perfectly balanced Kappa
Thanos likes this post
He can create the plants is it mean he create Ivern too?
I view Shen as very intelligent. The “test” shen was talking about was probably what she would do to save the kid. Shen kept trying to “bait” her into failing by pressuring her to let the kid die. To me, Akali passed shens test by saving the boy. When Akali demanded they bend the rules, Shen did not object, and actually began to observe her test.
Edit: Shen was more than likely talking about restoring balance and not necessarily the kid as some have pointed out. Unless riot is painting a more heroic picture of Shen rather than just a crazy guy who doesn’t care what happens as long as the balance is restored.
Your comment is actually on point. Now riot needs to make movies. I've waited too long.
@@lofishorts8255 far too long
Shooooot, that's what I was thinking. Loving the comments tho of Shen just waiting to see some child get massacred.
And then we have the player - the actuall summoner -
(the one who can control all champs if he wishes - but then we have riot, who dont allow us this)
Press R to secure carry, NO
I'm actually baffled how many brain dead people are in the comments, that do not get this point.
Shen is basically Kuai Liang (Sub-Zero) from Mortal Kombat.
He is a wise leader and teacher. He does not love nor hate. Not good but, not bad either. He's always staying neutral.
He only acts when his duty wills it.
Now that you say it Akali also seems like frost
Would that make Zed Scorpion?
Shen has plenty of emotions, he just can't show them due ot his duty
Shen: you’re already dead, you just haven’t caught up yet...
No northernstar meme? Noob

@@senjin8531 same
I just realized after finishing Arcane, the animation here is very similar. Riot, please make a series about Ionia next 🥺
Of course it's similar, it's made by the same animation studio. And yes I agree, would love an Ionian animation. From what I hear Arcane season 2 might involve noxus and I'm guessing season 3 might be the noxian invasion on ionia...but keep in mind, those are just rumours for now.
@@severedproxy well, except it's not. Arcane is made by Fortiche Prod. Tales of Runeterra is made by Axis studio.
@@TankCowIvan art direction and how the animation would look is depending on riot so of course its gonna look pretty much the same
Better yet, have episodes of _Arcane_ set in Ionia.
Shen: See what I see...
*makes everything neon
Akali: You know who it is...coming round again...

You want a dose of this

It's either noxus and Ionia or noxus and demacia
