NOTE THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS!!!!!!!

So you wanna play Erlang Shen, but you have no idea how. The reality is, Erlang can be built nearly anyway possible, this build is more of a jungle build. Also if you have any ideas how to make this build better, please inform me (would be much appreciated)

P.S. first time doing this and sorry for the terrible grammar in advance

Introduction

Alright, do you love it when salty players call you a p***y? then this is the build for you. this build was made to abuse the **** out of the dog passive and can bring your dog upwards to 50 base damage per hit, only problem is that the attack speed isn't kali levels of fast (somewhere around 1.55), but trust me, you are a squishy's worst nightmare.

Pros / Cons

Pros
-high damage
-good escape
-great self heal
-mobile
-strong late and early game

Cons
-thorns and nemean can really mess your day up.
-weak against cc
-somewhat weaker mid game
-dog barking will drive you insane

Team Work

From what i have seen, Erlang can either be front lane or he can gank. I personally like to gank because of the lack of defense he has. Erlang's 1 honestly is a god send, it removes auto attack movement penalty and helps with dealing more damage. His 2 is a great way to save an ally or to stop an enemy from escaping, so get good w aiming it. the third ability is a great way to initiate and escape with the turtle form, and his mink is great for hunting down and can be used to combo with his 1. His ult can honestly be a life saver if you know when and where o use it. You should know that his heal can still trigger even if there is no enemy around, so use it to get back into the fight.
General combo: start with turtle form to get the shield and the knock up, the second you see them fly up, cancel you ability and immediately go to your 1, if they try to run away and are out of your range, hit them with your 2 or your ult and continue until they die.
