Runes & Summoner Spells

• Flash + Mosstomper Smite – Flash enables outplays and Flash–Taunt engages; Mosstomper Smite speeds up clears and secures early skirmishes.
• Keystone: phaserush Phase Rush – Grants bonus movement speed after three hits, perfect for kiting, optimal Q placement, and sticking to gank targets.

Why These Runes?

• Phase Rush: Extra movement speed to land empowered Qs, Enhancing your gank follow‑through.
• Axiom Arcanist + Ultimate Hunter: Both grant Ability Haste on your ultimate—so Stand United’s cooldown can drop from ~180s to ~100s ish, letting you turn fights around more often.
• Absolute Focus: Grants bonus adaptive damage when above 70% health, boosting your farming speed and scaling your damage throughout the game.
• Waterwalking: Provides movement speed and adaptive damage in the river, perfect for securing epic monsters and improving roams between lanes.

Clearing & Buff Tracking

Shen’s clear speed from levels 1–6 is solid—season 13 jungle changes make him even more viable!

• Lazy Q Technique: Cast shene Q just before entering each camp so that, after your three empowered cleaves, Q has already reset—giving you three more empowered autos immediately.
• Start Selection (Blue vs. Red): Choose your first buff by assessing which lane offers the easiest gank:
   
   
  • If your botlane is strong (e.g. Leona + Jhin), start top side and path down.
     
  • If your toplane is stronger (e.g. Darius or Sett) and bot is weak (e.g. Soraka), start bot side and path up.
     
• Enemy Jungler Tracking: At spawn, move with your teammates to ward the enemy’s buff. Seeing their first buff spawn tells you their start side—and thus their likely early path. For example, if you spot them on their top‑side buff, they’ll usually head bot next. Communicate this to mid and bot often so they can play safely. Since Shen’s clears match most opponents, you’ll know where they are by comparing your own camp timers: if you began at Blue and reach Red without encountering them, they’re almost certainly on your bot side.
