Tips Against Shen in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
I Am Goliath says “One of the harder tanks for Urgot to deal with since his W blocks your W, with that being said as long as you play around shens Q I don't think this matchup is too hard, just don't eat his auto attacks when he has Q active because that's his main source of damage, just turn off your W when he has his W on and you can also try to fling him out of the circle or just fling him to buy time, you can use your E to cancel his R teleport if he ever uses it near you, if you can't get in range then I recommend throwing your ultimate on him so he is slowed upon arrival, you can also match his ultimate with a teleport of your own or just try to trade lots of turret platings, make sure you're pushing when he makes teleport plays, also pushing him in can also make it harder for him to get off those teleport plays because he will have to worry about losing more resources for himself. Cull is a nice early buy in this matchup, once you get black cleaver + death's dance you outscale him extremely hard.”
Anoying bro5 says “Wait till lvl2. Riposte his first Q auto attack with Grasp proc. This is his core damage. If you are confident in parrying his taunt, go for it. If not, stick with Grasp proc parrying. You cant hit vitals in his W so dont aa. Try to abuse him early before he gets bramble. His taunt is his escape so if he uses it poorly and you can win, chase him down.”
MrDomian says “Wait for your R and hit it with all your skills.
Notify your team when he gets an R after level 6.
Control and interrupt R with your all skills.”
kimmothy says “He has a dodge to cancel your true damage, his q's do alot of damage early and has decent auto attack range with it. What makes it difficult is that he can be tanky to take hits and deal a good enough damage against you. Always watch his q tether ”
SaltCat says “He is a extremely hard match up, you lose level 1 level 2 you can win if you have full passive, after level 3 you lose until 6 then you have a chance again, after level 11 if you are even you beat him”
RTO says “Avoid trading with him pre 6. Once you are 6 you will be able to out trade him very hard. Make sure that you bait out his W prior to stunning. If you don't, then you will just waste your stun. ”
Raen says “Try to fight him at level 1 with your E. Rush Tiamat and try to keep him under turret to not let him R for free. Remember that his W blocks your auto attacks even your W. Be prepared with your E when he will be in air to taunt you try to press E and you will minimize all his dmg. ”
quinn adc says “So first, Shen's E range is 600, which is 75 longer than our auto range. This is important becasue if we are autoing shen, he can easily taunt us to retaliate.
The most important rule is to BE CAREFUL when he's under tower because he can taunt you OR flash taunt you, and you will likely die.
First, in lane you can vault aggressively level 1 because Shen has no way to punish you. Level one is yours.
Level 2 onwards, be careful of aggressive vaults because a good shen will taunt you when vault is down and make you cry.
Next, it's important to understand Shen's W. Shen summons a barrier that blocks ALL auto attacks and damage for 1.75 seconds. When this is active, don't attack him and play back.
I recommend, like with Panth E, when your harrier marks him and his shield is up, wait for the shield to expire before consuming the harrier proc on him so the amplified damage isn't wasted, and when his shield goes away, you now have your attack speed steroid and move speed to DPS him.
The cooldown of Shen's W is 18-12 seconds. It is the only win con he has in lane, and if he uses it, immediately punish him for the next 18 seconds.
Don't let him walk up to CS and harrass the living hell out of him.
Play this lane aggressively because Shen can't really out damage you.
For the advanced Quinn players, what I like to do is consume a harrier proc on a minion, and then run towards shen to PRETEND that I'm engaging on him. The Shen will think you are trying to jump on him, and he will use his Taunt towards you, but since you're trying to bait this ability, you run back right away with your enhanced MS from harrier to prevent his taunt from hitting you. By doing this, you now have baited Shen's 18 second taunt AND made him dash towards you.
If shen doesn't land taunt, he is a tanky cannon minion, and you should auto attack him to death.”
Phrxshn says “You will have to make short trades against Shen as he can out trade majority of top laners due to his immense defense and maximum percent damage. Dodge his Shadow Dash(E) to prevent him from trading. It is up to you if you want to let him use his Stand United(R) or not. If he does use it, do push. (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Shen) (Outscaling Edge: Singed) (Recommended Items: Demonic Embrace, Mercury's Treads) (Mega Adhesive prevent casting on Shadow Dash) (Fling overrides Shadow Dash)”
Veng Shotz says “Watch out for his taunt early game, his empowered Q will out trade you early game, and he will use w to block your passive when he see's the auto for it. After a few items you outsustain him, so long as you dont eat taunts everytime its off cooldown, rush black cleaver into him and he wont ever be able to out 1v1 you. ”
Boptimus says “I love seeing a Shen lane. Most Shen's wont be able to pressure you well but you will have a hard time playing against a good Shen. AD or Tank is fine against him as he is hard to solo kill. But if they keep messing up definitely look to punish.”
Fryx says “His Q and his Passive will deny you any chance to have a decent Trade. This is why you pick Grasp here and Max your W. Once you get taunted he will he do brutal damage on you and his ult is obviously very useful for his team. Try to land poke once he uses Q on the wave since this will proc his Shield. Shen's weakness is his poor waveclear so if you actually manage to get lane priority stay on the gas and push as hard as you can. This will give you nice openings for harass and eventually an allin. Stay patient and react to his plays by hardpushing or Tping for your team. Don't TP on lane you will throw the game like that since Shen will outroam you.”
Amphawn says “Just dodge his taunt, and be wary of his ult if you're fighting someone else. Apart from that he doesn't really have anything on you, just don't get cocky and all in early. If he gets on top of you he can win the trade very easily. He can block all basic damage while he is in his W, and he can slow you if you are in the path of his sword when he recalls it. He also gets a shield whenever he uses an ability, so he can trade pretty easily.”
maxlid3 says “Keep your distance. Usually an easy lane. His dash is not far enough to reach you and you can just W him to deny him his engage. He will stack armor so it will be hard to kill him in the late game since he just stacks armor. Ping to your teammates if he is missing since he will ult away.”
SunFalk says “He has a shield. He has a taunt. He has a dash. He is tanky. He has a teleport in is kit. - CS until you see that he's leaving lane with his ult. When he is missing, ALWAYS ping and make your team know he's missing.”
IvernLover74856 says “Don't go for trades because he can block E proc with his Q+W (has to be near his sword) and has surprising dmg after pulling sword. Poke him maybe idk. Take MR rune, after Q his autos do % magic dmg or some shit. He can just do massive dmg lvl1, esp. if his sword goes through you.
Play safe forever, take DShield.
If he hugs you and makes you hit him, it's game over.”
FeedLaneGetCaryd says “(Bone Plating+Armor). The hardest tank matchup for Urgot. Play around his Q's. Fling him out of his W to do damage with your W. E to stop his R. If you can't do that - R him so he gets slowed. You outscale Shen hard.”
SettVEVO says “Skill matchup, one of those champions that look for unfair trades with no counterplay. Hits you with his Q and Es away. Similar to Jax wanting to block your Q damage with his W so like Jax, don't start with Q or do a Q reset without him throwing it. It has a long cooldown like his E so keep both those in mind. Always try to extend the trades and not let him dash out although it is difficult. Avoiding his taunt helps a lot, and don't be near his turret cause he can taunt you under it. Similar to Camille where you play around his passive shield and you will win the trades. If you didn't die in early you will win fights once you get 6 since he doesn't have a combat ult. Once he gets 6 ping it so everyone remembers that he exists, and use wave management to have him always give something up for it, he has bad waveclear until bamis or tiamat so use it against him, slowpush so he has to choose between saving his teammates or get the CS, you can cc him to stop his tp but it won't stop the shield. Freeze against him so he can't get any CS. You can't stop him from ulting but you have to make sure he gives something up for leaving lane. As a team you have to play keeping in mind Shen is in the game, there are no 1v1s or 2v2s, it always will be unbalanced. A good ult target as he usually builds health.”
PanthrickTV says “Just really tanky and hard to kill.
(1) Spam your Q's at lane. (some poke)
(2) Play smart and exploit her mistakes.
(3) When he misses his taunt u can go for the all in.
(4) Since he buy some items you can' t really kill him. Show the lane and roam.
(5) I recommend Teleport here when you want to roam a lot, but if you want to kill him early take Ignite.”
RareParrot says “he cant really kill you at any point in the game but he is automatically more useful than you at 6 because of his cheesey global shield, easy lane just q when he empowers his autos.”
Feedaboi says “Look to q poke him early and try to bait out his w before looking for extended trades by either walking up with your q on him or by using your e onto him then kiting away with the move speed from your e and then e back onto him as his w is expiring. Look to rush black cleaver in this lane. ”
BoilTheOil says “Take Conqueror. You can beat him level 1, but you have to take a long fight to win. Max W into him because he usually blocks your Q damage with his W. Make sure you use E when he uses W so he doesn't take an empty trade from you. You can also use E to pull him in the middle of his dash but it's harder. If he has ignite he can kill you if you're low. Don't waste TP because you need to follow his ultimates. After he gets Sunfire you don't beat him in a fight so just match his splitpush and follow his ult. You are way more useful than he is in teamfights so just play for that.”
Rhoku says “TL;DR - EASY LANE, HARD GAME. TAKE EARLY DSHIELD TO COUNTER ACT HIS LEVEL 1 PASSIVE AA DAMAGE. DON’T STAND BETWEEN HIM AND HIS SWORD. DON’T EAT HIS PASSIVE AUTOS FOR FREE. DON’T WASTE YOUR W ON HIM, WHEN HE IS BLOCKING AUTOS. FREEZE MOST OF THE TIME. SHOVE WHEN HE IS ABOUT TO TP. DO NOT LET HIM TP TO HIS TEAM. E HIM. DON’T FIGHT HIM UNDER HIS TURRET. CONQUEROR IS VERY GOOD.
Shen is not too difficult to fight per se. The difficulty in dealing with Shen comes in trying to outdo him, as his ultimate gives him a crazy amount of presence everywhere. Try not to fight Shen in a massive enemy wave as if you get taunted then, you are most likely dead. If you get taunted under enemy turret then you are also dead. Shen is great at setting up ganks, and escaping them. His zone of blocking around his sword does not block your Q or your Ultimate. Try not to stand between him and his sword, as that way, he will have the attack speed to outtrade you with his empowered auto attacks. You can take an early D shield in order to counter act the damage of his auto attacks. Wave control and map awareness are the key to figuring out this lane. You mostly want to keep the wave frozen in your side of the lane most of the time, so that if he walks up, he is putting himself at risk of you killing him. This way, you should easily build a solid gold lead off of minions. IF you know that the enemy jungler is about to gank a different lane, OR a decisive fight is about to happen Botlane or Midlane, then you should be looking to shove him in so that he cannot teleport freely. If he is backing off, know that he might be trying to use his ultimate so be ready to E him and then back off/fight him depending on whether you can kill him. Be mindful of where the jungler is by the way. If the Shen is teleporting to a fight that the jungler isn’t involved in/isn't GOING to be involved in, try not to do much more than just cancelling his teleport as you could die to a 2v1.”
PH45 says “Shen deals a lot of damage with his Q so be careful about tanking too many hits from him. Also pay attention to his swords position as if he draws it through you he will deal more damage to you with his Q autos. Generally you want to E just before he taunts you so he doesn't get free damage on you. After 6 he will ult to other lanes and pressure in that way so either be ready to cancel his ult with your E or be ready to TP to help your team or if your TP is down the force down towers top and warn your team.”
Drake6401 says “More of a game threat than laning phase threat. Shen also gets very tanky for no real reason so keeping a lead can be difficult. You can never shut him down because of how easily he can just leave lane.
His W is the biggest concern to advise as he can completely block your W with it. Your stun will easily break his shield since his first ability procs it. Not screwing up your W is important as usual here.
In team fights, typically just avoid him and target champions not protected by his W's safe zone. This means you cannot be the front liner of your fights and must work around him to reach your actual targets. He may use his ultimate to save them which your W breaks but it is unlikely that you will not have used it by then. If he uses it and your W is down, you may have to cut your losses and back off that target for now.”
Sovereign Kitten says “Shen will mostly build a bit tanky with Wit's End as his primary way to deal a lot of AP damage late game. It would be wise to never utilize your (Q) to poke him unless he has recently used his (E) dash and landed his taunt while in his (W) spirit blade which prevents our (AA) damage from landing, otherwise he can simply stun you and wait out the duration with his (W). He is going to often roam and help his team out a lot and be right back in the lane shortly after with his teleport, you could follow after him, but for the most benefit to your team, try to damage him as low as you can before he arrives, making him very weak.
”
ForgottenProject says “Ay Tanks are good now, dont underestimate his early damage for it will be your demise. The reason he is good is not because he beats you, it's because he beats your teammates.
[1]Parry his Dash/Taunt.
[2]Do not get close to him under his turret, he will taunt you and you will die.
[3]Do not get close to him when he has a big Minion wave, he will taunt you and Minions will do a lot of damage Early.
[4]Keep track of his R, ping to make sure your teammates are aware.”
Psychopathic Top says “
Shen is one of those champs that you don’t expect the damage, but the damage simply exists. In lane, be extremely careful of his triple empowered autos. Those do a lot of AD and AP damage, and can chunk you out like crazy. Level 1, three autos from shen can chunk out half your hp. Make sure to stand away from him so he doesn’t taunt you as well. Scale to sheen and look to farm safely. He actually gets extremely hard to kill and can simply taunt out if he sees he cannot out-duel you. The worst is his global can be used to win a lot of early skirmishes, and impact the map in ways you cannot stop. Nasus does not have an ability that can stun or knock up Shen from channeling his R, which makes him extremely obnoxious to just R onto his teammates and turn the tides of a fight. Scale into teamfights, focus on stacking perfectly and shoving the wave into his turret when he Rs out of lane. With good stacks and Sunderer, it is possible to teamfight them even if they get fed as the result of Shen’s ultis.
”
LiL Bunnie FuFuu says “Shen's taunt can be flayed but it has an extremely fast animation and you can't block it unless you predict it. That probably won't happen. And if you don't block it he taunts you and chunks half your hp bar with no counterplay.
His ult can be interrupted with hook or flay but doing so can cause you to die to a taunt combo - or he'll walk out of vision ult and you won't have a chance to interrupt it. Irregardless, even if you do interrupt his ult he still gets his shield off which can be huge in a fight.
Shen is also a better tank than Thresh and will be very hard to kill. His global presence with R is not something you can match and it's better to ban him because this champion is OP.”
Stinkee says “For a tank, Shen does very high damage, almost like a bruiser. His early game trades are very strong. If he's good, he'll use his Q right as his passive and Grasp are up to win short trades and slowly chip away at your health. Be aware of where his blade is, don't let him Q the blade through you as it will slow you and give him a lot more damage. When he's level 6, you need to shove minions to his tower nonstop, forcing him to miss a lot of minions if he wants to ult somewhere else. If you see him ulting, you can easily cancel it with your ult or your Q. Just be careful though, don't ult him if you're low as he'll just taunt you and kill you. He does counter your passive very hard with his W, just blocking all of your autos but this is not a huge deal as Sion passive isn't that useful in most situations anyways.”
MythicMike says “Dodge his taunt and the trade should be yours since his W won't block your Q's but it will block your passive so watch out for that. There's never a point where shen should be able to ult in lane since you can easily cancel him. ”
iZeal says “It's very hard for Shen to punish you since your sustain is incredible and Shen has to blow E to get onto you making him susceptible to a full combo into disengage. Don't be afraid later on when you have enough cooldown reduction to extend the trades since Shen's burst is impressive, but your healing will allow you to deal with his DPS unless he is too far ahead.
Do not let him pull his sword through you and dodge his E as this will leave him with no way of closing the gap any further, try to bait out his W by cancelling your passive auto attack since it blocks all the healing from it completely.”
A_Drunk_Carry says “Shen beats your ass early. He can just give himself an auto shield, his lvl 2 taunt pressure is insane, and his empowered Q autos > your Q early. It sucks but you'll be down farm early. Let it happen and wait for your chances. You can disrupt Shen ult with the edge of your W wall as well, which most Shens don't know/respect.”
qveenevelynn says “Punish him when he fail his dash, try to do small trades, not that easy to kill beacause of his shields. (he can survive to ignite or your ult...) ”
P1Legend says “Shen is not a fast pusher, but he won't really die to you either. The best way I've found to fight against him is to Perma push him to tower and roam. Remember, he will Ult to where you are roaming, so make sure you aren't over committing. but because you are perma pushing him under tower, he will lose minions for trying to follow if his Ult is down.”
Alan234 says “Any rune is fine, i prefer electrocute since it procks through his w. Get boots first, however w max and swifties are optional. As long as you dodge his e youre gucci. If you cant dodge it q him during his travel time so that his q auto attacks dont deal as much dmg. Try to poke him in lane but never under the tower (free e for him). Hard shove him in so that roaming means that he will lose cs and exp. Spam ping your teammates once he is lvl 6 or they will die like bonobos.”
The_Unf0rgiv3n says “Not much to say here. Avoid getting hit by his Q (don't trade with him if that happens) and if he misses a taunt, you can punish him hard for that. Go Kraken if there are more tanks on the enemy team. If not, just build Shieldbow.”
Quinncidence says “Vs really good Shen players, Yorick is not allowed to farm for the first 5 levels.
But most Shens plays it bad so they will be kind enough to let you farm.
After 6 Yorick wins lane, push lane and farm jungle camps and become a unstoppable splitpush monster.”
The Rock Titan says “"[Grasp, Corrupting Potion, W > E] - Taking Grasp probably doesn't make too much sense because he can dodges autos but it's better than Comet imo (since you E max)
- You also want demolish in this match up so that's why Grasp tree is needed.
- You E max to clear waves faster so once he ults, you get to demolish his turret faster.
- Whenever shen wants to trade, they always want to run behind you before they do anything. DO NOT LET HIM WALK BEHIND YOU! If he can't get behind you, his blade will never pass through you!
- After he's 6, and you got your first few components, you want to somewhat aggressively trading with him whenever your E is up. You want to fight him to distract him from ulting his teammates. Stop when you get too low...
- Shen is a pretty annoying lane but he doesn't have a lot of kill pressure and he pushes really slow before he gets his Bami.
- You can take advantage of his slow wave clear and get a bunch of free recalls off. You can literally play really stupid sometimes, just to get the waves pushed in and recall to buy and heal.
- I don't think his dash can be dodged on reaction. You have to juke it to dodge it. If you do dodge it, you do a quick trade and run away.
- When he taunts you, you want to press E to slow his attack speed.
- Never trade with him if his blade passed through you. His autos hurt soooo much...
- THIS IS NOT A MATCH UP YOU CAN WIN, IF YOU KEEP DYING, JUST FARM SAFE AND NOT FIGHT."”
DippyDan says “A very strong tank to go with assassins. Can dodge AAs with W to counter vital procs, A dash with a taunt, and a passive shield. Also has a bigger impact on the whole map with his ultimate. TIPS: [1] Bait out his shield and trade after. [2] Parry his taunt to stun. [3] keep lane shoved so he will lose waves when ulting to a teammate. [4] You outscale and can kill him pretty easily in the late game so pressure the sidelane and force him to defend.”
Chease says “He has as powerfull levels 1-2 as Sett. Use your W+E combo if he uses W, if he looks for R try to interupt it or hard shove so he will lose as much as possible.”
Justkb says “This is Darius favored, don't underestimate Shen's early burst. You can start to beat him hard at level 6, try to pressure waves so he doesn't ult, look to run him down once he has used his taunt.”
Rhoku says “Shen CAN be hard to deal with but if you activate your passive early into the fight, he stands no chance. Just don't fight him level 1, as his empowered autos do a LOT of damage. Trust me. Don't stand between him and his spirit sword. If it goes through you, it gives him a lot of attack speed which he can use to melt you down. And also, make sure that your 1 auto that you need to activate your passive does not get blocked by his AA blocking ability. Thankfully, its the only thing from your kit that he blocks. Once level 6 rolls around, things change. He WILL look to gank his team so PING YOUR TEAM to make sure they are ready. If you find him ulting, use your pull or your R to stop him. Post level 3, you win all ins straight up and with level 6, he stands ZERO chance against you in fights. He is just a hard matchup because he will probably have much more impact on the map than you.”
Phrxshn says “You will have to make short trades against Shen as he can out trade majority of top laners due to his immense defense and maximum percent damage. Dodge his Shadow Dash(E) to prevent him from trading. It is up to you if you want to let him use his Stand United(R) or not. If he does use it, do push. (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Malphite) (Recommended Items: Typical Armor Items, Mercury's Treads) (Unstoppable Force cancels Stand United and Shadow Dash) ”
Phrxshn says “You will have to make short trades against Shen as he can out trade majority of top laners due to his immense defense and maximum percent damage. Dodge his Shadow Dash(E) to prevent him from trading. It is up to you if you want to follow his Stand United(R) or not. If he does use it, do push. (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Dr.Mundo) (Recommended Items: Bramble Vest, Mercury's Treads)”
Xerath gaming says “Even tho you still get Passive stacks, that lack of aa damage just gets you killed, do not fight him till level 6 you win it from the on. Ult him when he ults.”
YasTilt says “Not that bad of a Matchup, He has no Wave Clear so you'll be pushing for sure. You can take The Collector to destroy his Armor. Wait for his W to go on CoolDown before taking FIghts with him. When he uses his R throw a Tornado at him so he won't TP. Otherwise, if he TP's shove your Lane and take Plates.”
Sopachi says “A lot of people say Shen is a hard counter to Kled but I think the matchup is even and he can be played around fairly easily. His W can block your entire W passive, so make sure when you all in him with E/Q to bait his W first before committing to your second charge of E and then auto attacking with W up. You can also stop Shen's R with your R, preventing him from using it at a close distance or within sight, forcing him to back off if he wants to use it. Abuse his early weakness and you will be fine. ”
Phrxshn says “You will have to make short trades against Shen as he can out trade majority of top laners due to his immense defense and maximum percent damage. Dodge his Shadow Dash(E) to prevent him from trading. It is up to you if you want to let him use his Stand United(R) or not. If he does use it, do push. (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Warwick) (Recommended Items: Blade of the Ruined King, Mercury's Treads) (Jaws of the Beast follows Shadow Dash) ”
Phrxshn says “You will have to make short trades against Shen as he can out trade majority of top laners due to his immense defense and maximum percent damage.

(Sustained 1v1 Trades: Shen) (Outscaling Edge: Trundle) (Recommended Items: Tiamat, Blade of the Ruined King, Mercury's Treads) ”
Fan22 says “Shen W can cancel your E and AA, but aside from that he is not really difficult, altough his Q has Max HP% magic damage.
You can cancel his R with your Q or W.
If you poke him enough with some Q's and hit 6 you should be able to kill him, if not then do not give him kills and just farm, try to not let him roam for free with R, if he uses it push the line, or if you can use TP to help your team if the fight looks winnable.”
Kartagoo says “Shen damage is really crazy and most shens go ignite so be careful of his early burst. Go for farm early and just poke with Q. If you maybe winning your lane and he hits 6 try to perma push him in to deny him gold and exp in case he ults away.”
RhinoStar says “He has damage that you might not expect os it is better to play rather safe. It is hard to play against him since his skills are going to annoy you. Be careful when he uses his blocking skill, you won't be able to damage him by much.”
A_Drunk_Carry says “Another split-pusher that can give you tons of problems. He will match you all game. Try to split and blow his TP, then he'll be forced to ult for his teammates later. Don't try to fight Shen early, he has too much in terms of dmg due to his empowered Q autos and his passive. ”
SavagePridestalker says “Shen is always a hard matchup. I think tank Rengar is better into Shen than AD Rengar. You need quick trades, proc Grasp as much as you can. Don't fight him for too long, his Q will outdamage you.”
Phrxshn says “You will have to make short trades against Shen as he can out trade majority of top laners due to his immense defense and maximum percent damage. Dodge his Shadow Dash(E) to prevent him from trading. It is up to you if you want to let him use his Stand United(R) or not. If he does use it, do push. (Sustained 1v1 Trades: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Even) (Recommended Items: Tiamat, Blade of the Ruined King, Mercury's Treads or Plated Steelcaps) ”
Marwaii says “He can out trade you with his Q. Do not let him Q through you. Save your E for his E. Ping allies if his ulti is up and you outscale.
Take Divine + Plated.”
slogdog says “Shen is a rolling rat. He has high damage with insane tankiness, and the stupid ult that makes it so that he can win the game without even playing against you. You can use W to displace his ult teleport, but most of the time it's better to let him teleport so you can eat plates. Try dodging his E, and don't walk into Shen if the spirit blade goes through you, as he hurts very very hard when that happens.”
Iczere says “While Shen can block your damage with his W, just running away can force him out of the W if he wants to kill you, and then you can just blind and punish from there. Make sure not to get too caught up in trying to punish. Try to shove lane close to turret, but not too close, that way when he R's to roam, you can just easily push wave and take plating, punishing him for roaming. ”
MachDawn says “He is annoying with the ability to not let you auto however you can just kite and bait it out then force a fight which you can win if played right.”
oogoogerson says “He gets way to tanky and is very hard to kill. He has more kill pressure than you have on him. Specifically at level 6 you get a small power spike on him and might be able to finish him off with Ignite. You probably want to take Teleport into this matchup however to follow him when he R's to bot or mid.”
Bombabo says “Very tanky, and can easily dirsupt a majority of your combo, while shrugging off any damage you do manage to get off. Play more of a passive laning phase, poke him if he does not have too many defensive items, and apply constant pressure top to prevent him from ulting to another lane”
DarkyTheReal says “Here you just need to dodge his E and play with his Q, If his Q doesn't hit you, and he has no shield, you'll destroy him. Also, you hard out scale him after level 6.”
SethPRG says “This is a super easy matchup. You win at all times by punching him, and when his shield is up to block your AA just Q and wait to hit him until it runs out, you will still out damage him. Past level 6 you win even harder, you can E and R his dash. All high elo Shen mains ban Sett, he counters Shen too hard. It is definitely harder now because of the buffed tank items, but this is only an anomaly for now, and you still beat him. His only threat at all is his R roams which really only matter high elo because of their deep understanding of the game, and Shen's ability to taunt you under his tower. Divine Sunderer is good into Shen if he's armor stacking, plus it has good sustain. Otherwise, Trinity Force is your best choice. Expect to be ganked here, especially in high elo, but you will most likely be able to win the 2v1 unless it's some champ like Olaf. You'll want to go Armor or Magic Resistance based on what champ the enemy JG is playing.”
Lupus_ToplaneMain says “Just stay in your minions. If you fight in his minions youre dead. His w blocks your q,e and AA just like JAX E so bait it or play around it. Fight him level 2, you win. But he needs less skill than jax and you cant stun him as easy as jax. Hes a harder matchup.”
Breadcrumbs says “Another very difficult matchup. He blocks all your autos, does more damage than your 5 stack, if you catch him out he dashes away, if you attack him he has a shield. Play it safe, most shens also run Ignite into this lane for the extra kill pressure so it's best to stay under tower so he doesn't snowball and carry. Keep track of him as it may be possible to cancel his R channel with your E and in turn save your team a bunch of hassle.”
El Leon Gnar says “Don't let Shen get on top of you and you should be fine in lane. You can outrange his dash pretty easily, save your E for after his taunt to escape and if he ever ults bot lane just shove in lane to deny him xp. Only follow his ults if you know you can get kills out of it.”
joelspaho121 says “Darius favored matchup but rather annoying. D Blade start with sorc tree. Shen is rather annoying to deal with however you should know that he has absolutely no kill pressure on you. All the laning here is determined by the way he uses his E. If he uses it to engage on you without his jungler nearby he is inting and should be banned. Most shen players will always save it to get out if they find themselves in a rough spot. Freezing is your best shot here so that even if he uses E to get away he still has got a long way to go to safety. Permashoving can be a good idea if you are ahead because his waveclear is really bad and to prevent him from roaming with R.”
Sinci says “Shen is really strong and can also counter your q and auto attack damage with his W which makes it hard to deal with, also you shouldn't underestimate Shen's damage because he can be surprisingly strong.”
Xarmat says “He can block your AA in his zone.
Don't be to greedy for kills. Better you try to stop his farming and push him out of the lane. When he dashes to you, use your E.”
King Turtle says “His W makes it extremely challenging to trade against early. If he rushes steelcaps you might as well just sit under tower and farm until end of laning phase. A good shen makes top lane absolute hell for you”
DaSticks says “Easy matchup for Teemo. Just harass him non-stop early and don't get taunted under tower! Care for him E-Flashing on you when his jungler arrives!”
Kaizin says “Shen deals a lot of damage, the main points for this matchup are to use your E if he uses his W (blocking field), your W damage won't go through the field, but you'll still get the mark and the heal from W2. If shen is ulting from under his tower, don't be afraid to ult onto him and stun to cancel his teleport. His ult cooldown is higher than yours anyway. You won't initially win short trades because of his W (blocking field) but if you mark him and continue to fight him, you'll end up winning the trade once you use Q to stun and W2 for the damage and heal.”
tonisco82 says “Very easy matchup. He cannot stand up to you without using W, and when he does punish him and force him out of lane. Easily stop level 6 ultimates with W.”
I am so chill says “dont trade till lvl 3.just poke.You can cancel his ultimate with ur q so use it wisely.You can beat him after black cleaver or goredrinker.Dont use your w before he uses e and avoid using ur passive when he uses his w.”
CaptianMike says “Shen is an interesting matchup. He deals %max hp magic damage with his Q which makes your trades bad. In addition he can block AA with his W. You can win trades if you manage to hit him with your E after his W. The good part is that you can Q or W him out of his ult!
”
deathwalker7119 says “Shen is overall pretty basic, parry taunt or empowered auto (either is fine). You need to spam ping his lvl when he hits 6 and tell your team he can ult since you have 0 cc. You can Q while he is in the anti-auto attack dome. Be careful of taking short trades, as if he presses an ability he will get a free shield and could shit on you in a short trade. Use parry to fuck his 3 empowered autos as they will come out way too slow for him to do the DPS he needs. Watch out once he has bramble/tabis since he will be harder to solo.”
ApollonATH says “Similar to jax matchup with his E . But you can 1v1 him if you bait his E then land your E Q W on him. If he ults to help his team you need to tp to follow if you are tank vpli or splitpush if you got your ap with nashors tooth”
PK Noob says “Shen's taunt and shields will make it extremely hard for him to kill. He also has his W that will block auto attacks which will put a dent in your DPS. Wait for him to use his abilities then all-in him and kill him with your true damage.”
Humitaxx says “Shen will not be a problem as long as you go Tank, since your most powerful asset will be your W, you just need to endure getting taunted and then use your charged W to drop his healthbar, he can only block your basic attacks, so it's an easy win as long as you avoid tower diving him while his taunt is up.”
top is high impact XD says “really hard to trade with early and has insane roam potential with his r, try to punish his roams by denying him cs and taking plates, you can cc him during his ult so that he has to stay in lane and cant help his teammates if you think that will get you more value”
Excuruseh says “Can block auto attacks and does huge damage early while gaining lots of shields with passive. Be careful of this matchup in the laning phase.”
Melyn says “His circle makes plants do no damage and he has a lot of kill pressure with taunt. Be especially aware of the possibility of him taunt-flashing. Try to poke with E (Q gets you dangerously close) and if he jumps on your ADC, try to kill/zone theirs.”
Womsky says “Scaling/mixed set up, you gotta respect his early damage, past level 4 you can trade with him but not with spinning into him randomly cause he can take strong short trades with you, extended ones is where you beat him, dont ever go under his turret while him being around for any reason cause he will taunt you and kill you, in mid to late game if he too tanky just ignore him and always shove him in if he splits against you then take his jgler camps”
Vandenelis says “he wins trades if he passes his sword through you early. you win against him as long as he does not all In you. you can stop his ultimate teleport by using your w on him. He does % of your max hp with his q empowered auto attacks. You scale evenly”
RealIreliaCarriesU says “He can be pretty annoying and a lot of them run ignite. He is the last person you want to fight early levels. Start E and be passive however unlike the others once you have your passive stacked don’t look for fights unless you can weave in free autos (2-3) before you all in. If you can survive to 6 without falling too far behind you can beat him a lot easier (though it is still hard). Try to kite out his W and Q his taunt if you have a low hp minion if you can. When you are fighting him post 6 open up with ult when you have passive stacked and start autoing him, use your E after he dashes as it will be easier to hit once his escape is down and you should win as long as you avoid at ALL COSTS Q’ing him when his W is down (the force field around him blocks your Q and autos, when he drops it look to auto minions to have them low enough for a Q reset or kite him out). As long as you play around his W and his passive (kiting them out with low hp minions), you should win, especially post 6”
MagicallyDelish4 says “If his passive is on CD then you can level one all in him. Post 6 you have to wait for his W to expire before using your abilities. If he doesn't have E just all in him. If he uses his ulti then shove the wave to deny him CS and to get plating lead. ”
tibs2 says “In theory this match up should also be free because you can just w his e but despite I always seem to do worse in this match up than I expect. You do not win auto trades and he is able to shield a lot of you poke damage combined with d shied and it is really hard to damage this champion. Id recommend rushing bami's cinder and CDR boots just perma pushing post shen 6. As long as he cant ult for free you are doing your job. If he ults under tower just ult him.”
Ratakor says “take MR shard, anti-heal can be good, Garen wins on long trade, ping when he is lvl 6, proc the W when he E, take demolish, E when he W, little inversion lvl 4”
Warwick do Brasilzaun says “Desvia de seus Auto Ataques e Habilidades Q e R. Além de ser um Tanque que aguenta muito dano, no Early Game você pode ganhar, mas ele tem muitos meios de sobreviver, ai fica mais difícil, além de ele poder proteger os aliados deles também de seus Ataques e Habilidades de Dano.”
JeanMichelBambi says “Shen is a tank with anti tank, with his percent max health damage on his Q, he suffers from the same issues as alot of top laners though, he's easy to poke out.”
AmericanNut says “His abilities allow him to negate all damage you try to put out, you need to play around his blocking and try to hurt him when he's not blocking. He will teleport around a lot, this will be the only matchup you may want to consider getting TP as a summoner spell.”
Cayteer says “Try to dodge his E. At 6 , if you see him ult in front of you , you can just proc your E on him to stop him. Without his E , pull combo him undertower.”
Noodles912 says “Freelo! Just farm under your tower and you are fine. Shen W is useless in this lane. Use W if he tries to taunt you, and never fight him 1v1, because Shen can take the biggest of beatings and live. Ping teammates when he ults.”
PiscesPomf says “EASY LANE
Just parry his taunt, and shred him because he's a tank. Ping when he is casting R ! If you can't parry his taunt, parry his grasp AA.”
Urgodzilla says “His passive shields are very annoyng, his W blocks your W. You should be fine after lvl6, because his R is useless in 1v1. If he teleports across the map feel free to take turret plates and make him lose a lot of farm.”
teemodumbstupid says “He is very strong early, and you don't want to fight him. Don't get hit by his E or you will take a bad trade. When you get Divine Sunderer you should win the 1v1 even if he hits his E. You have no CC to counter his Ult. The best thing you can do is Q him and W him before he teleport. He will be slowed when he TPs which can help your team survive. Take as many plates as you can when he ults.”
Laserholic says “Tank match-ups are VERY GOOD as the game goes mid-late. Your damage is insanely high with %HP and True Damage. Generally be careful of ganks against tanks, they will generally CC you inside your W such as Shen Taunt. Try to make it to mid game and play the side-lanes.”
Tsundere Tahm says “Misma situacion que Malphite pero este tiene mucho mejor rotacion que tu, recomiendo pokearle con q y jugar a tu lado del mapa, si te gankean y te pega una e es GG.”
jmp_01_ says “Strong early game. Make sure to avoid trades if his blade goes through you - he will win every trade. You can go for all-ins after level 6, since his R - Stand United is meant for his teammates. Also try to avoid his teleport on his ult. Care of his Taunt-Flash combo.”
Drygur says “Shen is a lane bully, and will punish you heavily if given the opportunity. Anticipate his taunt (E) and take very short trades to avoid excessive damage from his (Q) and Grasp.”
Kokob5 says “A skill match up funny enough, a good shen will try to keep his sword between him and you. So long as you don't allow it you'll win fights. ”
negoZoma69 says “Always be ready to dodge his E, if he misses then you can chunk him hard so he has to be very careful. Push the lane and put pressure so he loses resources if he ults. Most Shen mains absolutely despise this matchup because you put so much pressure.”
Draconic56 says “A skilled matchup a good Shen player will be able to chunk you down. Don't stay in between him and his spirit blade as his empowered autos do a lot of damage. Try to ult him or E him when he ults so he doesn't get to teleport to his teammate they will still get the shield but Shen won't be there. You can demolish him in your ult try to W his Q auto attacks and you will kill him easily.”
SKRELAX says “Again, Shen counters you well. Try to not fight him at all. Just poke him, and give him a little burst of damage. Easily killable with mage Jungler. (Only for top.)”
Docoda says “Try to always keep your max range against Shen and you'll win the matchup. One misstep gives him a good trade on you though since his passive damage is just a little bit on the high side. They also often take ignite which makes him a little bit scarier, especially in Flash+E engages on you.”
Dorom says “You will make this guy cry by the time you get sheen. He can't trade you since his only damage comes from autoattacking and you can just blow up a barrel and run away from him then waiting for his Q and passive to run off and Qing him, and doing this over and over again... fun stuff.”
pioj12 says “If he uses E into you immediately use yours as soon as he is backing up Q him to slow and win trade.
Watch out with his roaming, when he uses R try to punish him in lane as much as you can while he is not in there.
”
raede says “Shen is suuuuuper annoying the lane against and he totally outscales you. His anti-autoattack area counters your Q and W and doesn't let you stack up your passive. The one saving grace is that your W, although it doesn't deal damage, will still mark him meaning the next one will heal you.”
jpaul2077 says “When going against Shen, don't be afraid to shove the lane aggressively. Shen cannot farm under tower very well, but be wary of being taunted under tower. When Shen hits level 6, look to either match his ultimate with your Teleport, or punish through split pushing your lane.”
ChaseMorePlz says “Rush Armor Penetration. In order to counter Riven, the enemy player has to know the champion they are playing better than you know your own. This is a thing to consider when playing against any foe 1 on 1, which is where Riven has the clear advantage.Shen is a general counter than will also be a challenge for me down the path of exile... ”
ChaseMorePlz says “I personally don't like laning versus Shen at all. If you're able to shut him down then it's very good, however if he is able to ignore your poke he can provide a lot of support to his team to get them a lead early on. Try to prevent this if possible, can actually snowball out of control for bigger advantages in Shen's favor.”
Sasdos says “his w useless against ur entire kit just dont get taunted under tower and bait his ignite. his ult scales off ap so u give shields so fat it makes me look skinny in comparsion. make sure to take ignite in this matchup since his ult is free tp”
Pawn Sacrifice says “Laning against Shen is simple and easy. Just make pressure and pressure, and pressure again. It's really necessary to give the call for your team when he reaches level 6, they must be aware of Shen ulti potential. Save your teleports to follow him when he ulti's (or try to stop his ultimate with your E).”
Reformed Ravi says “his w blocks your ghoul attacks and your q like jax. The trick to beating him is to use w once he uses his e and mess him up. Remember shen likes short trades with his e and q. if possible try and keep the trade going and you should win if played right”
Alekra says “He is very beatable. Since you max E anyways, his w is not very effective. If you manage to time it correctly that is. Build Black Cleaver first to counter his early tankiness. Take Demolish for free towers when he ults away.”
Erenando says “Easy lane to stack, but be careful. He has a huge powerspike with tiamat in early. After that phase you can stack easily. you can stack CDR easily by going hybrid (kindlegem, glacial shroud, sheen etc.)”
czrmtz24 says “Shen does a lot of damage, but he is pretty easy to deal with. Do not engage on him under his tower unless you ground him with W or you will int. Keep vision on him always, and remember you can cancel his R with your W or E. If he backs off the wave follow him and cancel his Ult, your team will appreciate it. ”
ToinoEscaca says “Like Teemo, Shen can cancell auto-attacks, causing the fight to go to his favor.
On this patch, Shen can build tank, ad or ap, make sure to respect the champion cause it can do a lot of damage.
Tahm Kench easily wins trades against Shen till lvl.3. Dont dive him because of the taunt (on Shen's E).”
GrGamingTeo says “Shen is extremely OP but you won't see him in elos below gold or ever platinum. You need to respect his enhanced AA. Shen will try to Q through you then get his enhanced AA in you. If he gets you with his E, AA, Q, AA, AA he will always win the trades. His lv3 power spike is even greater that Garen's because his W negates every AA including your W. Once he uses his W, you need to walk out, pull him out of his W's radius and then proceed with your AA, W combo. The only time you can kill him is if he wastes his E and his W, all-in him and he's dead.”
Drumastermunch says “Shen has really good trades, but completely exposed after he burst any of his CD. Use that, just be smart on your wave management. If he doesn't have a lead, you win at 1 item.”
Olaf Only says “Easy after lvl 6.
Don't go too close to his minonwave as he can E you for extra minion damage.
Wait for his Passive shield to fade before trading.
Difficult to kill if he has his W active.
Look to freeze after lvl 6 and kill/deny farm”
LunaticDancer says “A good Shen is nigh unbeatable for you, as his W nullifies all damage, making you and your ghouls absolutely inpotent. Avoid his taunts as much as you can, or better yet, force him to use it as an escape tool.
IMPORTANT TECH: You can use your W to disrupt his ultimate as long as a wall appears directly where he's standing.
Of course, while in theory he counters you pretty hard, in practice the match-up is pretty manageable, as long as you stay focused and fish for stupid mistakes on his side.”
Dotje says “It really depends on how well you can kite and dodge. When he hits you with a taunt you can easily Q him when he's on top of you. Make sure to keep your E for when his aa shield is down.”
SpyDaFX says “avoid trading when his W is up, or avoid W'ing when he used it and you're inside it. you can easily kill him at level 6 if you play it well since his ult is useless against you. go conqueror.”
Ravenborne says “Do not start the trade off with E. Be sure to not get taunted under tower.
His new empowered Q's deal alot of Damage so his Level 1 to 2 hurts. You hard-win at Level 3. If he ults near you cancel it with E to deny his roams.”
Mr.Kovacic says “Just watch out for his stuns and you will be good to go. Shen players are very predictable. Also dont go near his sword. Thats how he can stun you.”
Kil4fun says “Will hard punish you early game for existing. Might take ignite to kill you level 2. You can't really fight him until level 11 where you can still damage him inside his E. At every point of the game he will be able to outroam you and generally be more useful in fights.”
GTGx says “go conquer and try to proc it when he taunts you, best you can do, he out trades you the majority of the time if not all of the time. One idea you can try is buy tiamat early and rush the tower when he ults, punish his cs as much as possible.”
MarkFromSingedMains says “Your W cancels his E and cancels his R. Your E also cancels his R. He does a lot of damage and can be a real pain to play against, but so long as you can dodge his E you can get away with doing whatever you want in lane. Just make sure to fling him anytime he R's, if he's smart he'll try to hide but if you have good enough map awareness (There's a purple effect on the minimap when he's teleporting around a person) you should be able to find him and cancel him. Be prepared for the Shen to go nuts on you though.”
wff010 says “He's as strong as you levels 1-2 but if you use e stun to trade in his minion wave and then walk away you get the lead. When he puts down his no-go zone, don't waste time auto attacking but prepare to use your q right after. Save e and w for when you have high grit to land a guaranteed w. Later, you can ult him out of his no-go zone. Plus, you can use goredrinker in it too. Keep watch around the map, if it looks like there's a place he wants to tp, hard shove the wave so that if he does he'll lose minions but save your e to interrupt his ult/tp too. You should win trades in general unless you keep hitting him in his no-go zone.”
ChevalierArlo says “Combine a build 1 com a 3 (Conquistador primário, inspiração secundário) uma vez que todas as suas trocas serão longas e provavelmente nem você nem ele vão morrer. Dica: Use a ponta do W bem em cima dele quando ele estiver usando a ultimate, isso irá interrompê-la. ”
ModelitoTime says “Another extremely annoying matchup. You can start either Doran's Shield or Blade in this matchup, although i recommend running the shield. At lvl 1 this matchup is in your favor so if you start your E and try to get a early kill on him that would really be nice in this matchup. But after when Shen gets his taunt and hit AE block this matchup gets really annoying. Keep your distance from shen and if you can try to toss him out of his little circle with your E so you can land basic attacks on him. Other than that take TP in this matchup so you can contest when he ults into another lane. ”
kingchas2 says “On paper this should be a horrible matchup. Hard CC to lock you down and keep you from using R. Mass AA-blocking. Good early dueler. I am honestly not sure why, but Shen always seems to fall off and be useless later. As long as you are safe and make it to the mid-game he won't ever kill you and you can kite him all day long. ”
I Am Goliath says “Hard matchup his empowered autos do a lot of damage and he can block all your autos with his W, try to bait out his W before you all in him especially if you're going in for an ultimate, later on you can outsplush him pretty easily but lane will most likely be a pain.”
Hippo Boi says “If he's good, he'll be a problem for you. Dodge his Q on trades, and always fight when he doesn't have his E. You'll probably won't beat him, since most of his abilities counter yours.”
LoLReal says “No threat, weak tank that can't trade into us. His W blocks nothing and he'll be pushed in and have difficulty roaming or ulting his team.”
Dannala says “Chances are you won't be able to do much against him. Super tanky, as long as you beware the taunt, try to farm. You can use Cocoon to interupt his ult or TP if he uses them near you. He can deal too much dmg atm to trade with him. Beware your positioning so you don't get hit by the sword when he calls it. Usually best to just farm, with a jungle gank you might be able to get him. Alternatively take everytime he ults to just kill a plating/turret/jungle camp.”
aurus666lol says “His W is so annoying, and he has good gap closer - E. Remember that you shouldn't give you free poke from passive, because he will get extra damage on Q+slow on it+ bonus attack speed when attacking.”
Heckin says “OK, listen, I know this champion is a tank, but he deals way too much damage. His trades are even scarier than Darius's but at least he can't one shot you after you are low enough. Practise your timing with your Q on his e and you should be fine, and don;t forget to f him up if he ults in fron of you.”
Otp Fiora Sorry says “Muito chato, tens de jogar bem early caso estejas a jogar meio mal e lento no W naoo fiques muito perto que ele vai ganhar as trocas e acaba por te matar e perdes a lane ... quando pushares contra ele lembra te que ele pode simplesmente pedir ele e usar o E e ja foste usar ward se possível coloca na jungle inimiga !”
Hyzerik says “Just don't get taunted as he will usually run after and it is a bad trade. When he uses his bubble to prevent AA use your R and get him out. Do your combo and you win the trade.”
Raideru says “U can try trading with him at lvl 1 by baiting him to attack you with his empowered autos so u just counter strike do 1-2 autos and back away and repeat the process do not all in him before 6 since you do not win without ult vs him unless he's very low at the beginning of the all in.”
TioKirb says “He can deal lots of damage in lvl 2 when he gets his dash. Be brave, avoid the taunt and give him the damned (I mean the damage, I really tried to make a good joke)”
LeSocair says “This is an easy and natural matchup, but take care of his Q as it will do more damage than you'll expect.
W the E and remember he can avoid AA with his W.
Warn your teammates once he gets 6, just in case.”
sauronkaiser says “He counters you. He has a good damage, can block autos (ghouls too) and still has a dash to escape if needed. Play safe and remember you can cancel his ult with your wall.”
CattoNuts says “The only chance that you'll get to kill him is pre bramble vest. Still, his opressive early game + grasp will be hard to play around. Focus on roams after six or wait on ganks, because you'll likely lose a 1v1 unless you have a HUGE lead.”
FoxyGrill says “Try to dodge his E and wait for his W and shueld to fall off before xasting your combo. You can outscale him pretty easily so as long as you dont die, you win.”
EU_Toxicity says “His Q early on has a deceptively high amount of damage so be mindful of that and play safe levels 1 and 2. Level 3 onwards you should be every all-in hard if you didn't get behind. Save your E for when he tries to run as extended trades are your forte.”
narsil reforged says “Evite ao máximo.
Você tem um campeão baseado puramente em aa aplicando efeito de contato. Esse cara GOSTA de campeão baseado em aa aplicando efeito de contato.
Um bom Shen que conhece o kit de Habilidades do WW não te permitirá pokeá-lo sem que você receba de volta, no mínimo, o triplo de dano. O W dele basicamente anula a capacidade de outplay da passiva, uma vez que nem mesmo nos minions protegidos pelo range da espada são alvos selecionáveis de AA. O dano do q dele causa dano baseado na vida máxima, e ele não tem problemas com mana. Sua Ult global pode facilmente virar lutas que, ao menos que você tenha tp ou consiga segui-lo conjurando o q enquanto o Shen canalisa, você não consegue interferir. Quando você puder dar roaming, o boneco vai apertar um botão e aparecer na luta dando um escudo baseado na vida perdida para o oponente, geralmente te destroçando logo em seguida. Depois que ele fecha Brasa de Bami e Colete espinhoso, esqueça trocar com esse coleguinha.”
lordoftheyuumitopmidadc says “this match up is skill based if you dont know how shen works then you will most likey lose but if you know the champ well its not a hard match up dont fight him under his tower because of his taunt and his W doesnt block your sheid bash so you can always get some poke on him”
KillMeMyFriend says “Perma poke him and try avoid his E.
Shove when he uses R.
If you happen to see him Teleport aa him and use Q just before he leaves so he will get some reduced armor and Mr and your team may have a better time wherever he goes.”
iZeal says “While this matchup is Darius favored, Shen's early game damage and durability from his shield spam have to be taken into consideration as well as the 225 range he gets from his Q sword. Darius gains the upper hand with levels especially at level 6 with his ultimate, however Shen's ultimate allows him to impact the entire map (which can leave you with 0 counterplay if you run Ghost Flash) and Shen's W completely nullifies auto attacks including your bleed stacks making it very hard for you to deal with Shen in teamfights or during ganks.
DBlade, Phage/Mercs/Tabis”
byThiagus says “Ganas all ins desde nivel 1 a 18 Igualmente respeta su early game, no podes iniciarle trades con tu e, espera a que te inicie el con la suya o pegale tu slow primero, a partir de nivel 6 no puede hacer nada. Primer pagina de runas y espada de doran”
RyvalAlex says “Shen a un meilleur early que vous et peu facilement en abuse. Vous pouvez espérer gagner les trades a partir du niveau 6 sinon jouer safe.”
TrinityForceYasuo says “Try to avoid his taunt, try to avoid fighting him when he has his shield on, its gives more AP damage on the next 3 hits and they hurt. Avoid fighting when he uses his W because it blocks your AA's. Freeze against him, early harass when he goes for minions and look for some good and short trades. If you dodge his E then try to bait his W and if you do so dash around the minions till its over and then go back to trade.”
viktoreeu says “Contrary to the popular belief, Shen hard counters you.
Grasp Shen beats you in the early game, and can win your botlane some decisive fights.
You may beat him after level 4 if you play well.
Try to keep him in lane and low hp, if he R's on someone just push as fast as you can, if he dies bot without TP and R it's over
tempo ghost”
NickCola Tesla says “Playing against Shen in lane is not quite difficult at all! Your poke is able to rival his, and his CDs are considerably longer than yours.
The problem in this lane comes from the insane map presence he has.
You can try pushing lane into his tower to prevent his Stand United plays, but only do so when you have strong vision/ know where the enemy Jungle is. Also, make sure you don't get taunted under his tower, for obvious reasons. Your ultimate and Q are able to cancel his ultimate's channel, so keep that in mind if he's making a split second play! You might be able to handle his split push later in the game with Sunfire Cape and Titanic Hydra, but make sure you have TP up if you plan on doing this.
In lane, only use your Q if his taunt isn't up, or you see him at the outer range of its hitbox. His taunt is able to cancel your Q!”
StrikeX114 says “Spirit's Refuge (W) counters your passive and Grasp, Shadow Dash (E) provides CC, and his ultimate gives him a "Get Out of Jail Free" card. Less likely to kill you than he is to set you up for a gank, always play close to your tower for safety. ”
Saarlichenbog says “Apart from his W, Shen suffers from being able to sustain himself in lane which is why he will almost always take Doran's Shield with Biscuits in lane, already giving you the advantage in runes. Otherwise, he is solely reliant on landing his E to even have a chance at getting on top of you. If he misses this, he usually dies as his passive is ineffective at blocking all of the spears that are stacked into him regardless.”
Yume Minato says “Shen can be very deadly if he's good. But usually just prepare your W in case of the taunt and don't put everything in his block, you'll manage to win if you can trade him to ferocity, have W ready for his taunt and run out.”
ItsPaulygon says “He can negate damage with his shield-like skill. But you have a fairly easy match up as long as you don't get taunted. Be careful of ganks too.”
llametekudasai says “lvl 1 le ganas y por mucho, solo se te vuelve complicado cuando este lo gankean.
Puedes usar el item, cuando el use su e para alcanzarlo. y para dodgear su E, recuerda usar tu Q cuando el use su w asi no pierdes tiempo en daño y si no tienes Q usa tu e para mitigar su daño de los básicos potenciado.
”
yasuhoe says “shen's W makes him untargetable and makes it hard to hit your autos. You can overcome this by keeping your distance and winning your early game before he hits level three.”
gamjatangisgood says “Shen is a champion that will win trades with you pre level 6 no matter what. A skilled Shen player can even beat you 1v1 late game if he has Thornmail and a wall to protect his vitals, so be wary of him all times.”
Biko14CS says “Spirit's Refuge (W) counters your passive and Grasp, Shadow Dash (E) provides CC, and his ultimate gives him a "Get Out of Jail Free" card. Less likely to kill you than he is to set you up for a gank, always play close to your tower for safety.”
Big Samuel says “tough to get kills onto him, but aslong as you play with your advantage of range theres no way in hell hes killing you either. make sure you ward though, getting ganked vs shen normally means your dead.”
aiSky says “A good Shen is always gonna be a pain in the ass. He can use his taunt and become invulnerable to your autoattacks from your W, making you loose your most dmg ability.
The best way to deal with him is to get a lead in lane of farm and tower plates when hi ults. This way you will be able to fight him back and also destroy enemy carrys.”
GLP1 says “Try to be making short trades with your Q to make him an all in when he has 35% - 40% life.
you can cancel the jump and the ultimate with the pull of your Q and the knockout of your ultimate”
Nicklstherealone says “You need to wait for his Autoattack-Shield and Grab him out of there. Then you shojld easily beat him and you also can stop his Ult. ”
Demon o mono sett jojofag says “Esta lane é complicada para você, tente abusar de seus itens, uma espada do rei é um bom spike para suas trocas, não deixe ele acertar o E, se ele der o W, recue e espere acabar.”
IJustWannaCuddle says “Pre 6 and early its a difficult match up. TO maximize your trade wait to use your breath until after he burns his W. Once the AA block is down you can win trades. Once 6 you can cancel his ults but Q-E combo and keeping vision. ”
Raphi0216 says “Care for Ignite. Dont walk between him and his sword. Try to dodge his taunt even if its really hard. Cancel his R with R and escape with E if he want's to help his team or follow up with your own TP.”
ichurboi says “This is fucking awful this man will ruin your day and cause you to do damage only the best trynda players have the skill to do 0 dmg when playing in this matchup”
Randombeastmode says “Start Dblade, try to bait out his E, if she saves it for when you spin on him, then you'll want to just farm the lane out. If he uses his W, you can all in, if he uses his E, you can all in, if he uses his R... Try to all in, unless it's for his jungler in your lane.
Why do supports like to roam top when a Shen is in your game?
Because they see free gold written on your booty, so make sure that you keep an eye on botlane for the random support roams that may occur with a Shen in your game.
Extremely boring lane, can be difficult, his q may make you rage(insane damage on tank)”
daito Okami says “D blade conq dom/resolve with bone plating. Wait out for his shield to run out before q u can try to e his e its difficult but very rewarding. When trading you should also wait out his w before using your aa because he will just block it.”
Frostyfps says “He can be pretty annoying and a lot of them run ignite. He is the last person you want to fight early levels. Start E and be passive however unlike the others once you have your passive stacked don’t look for fights unless you can weave in free autos (2-3) before you all in. If you can survive to 6 without falling too far behind you can beat him a lot easier (though it is still hard). Try to kite out his W and Q his taunt if you have a low hp minion if you can. When you are fighting him post 6 open up with ult when you have passive stacked and start autoing him, use your E after he dashes as it will be easier to hit once his escape is down and you should win as long as you avoid at ALL COSTS Q’ing him when his W is down (the force field around him blocks your Q and autos, when he drops it look to auto minions to have them low enough for a Q reset or kite him out). As long as you play around his W and his passive (kiting them out with low hp minions), you should win, especially post 6.”
Time1Save says “As long as you play with an advantage, you win. That's just unlike other Champions, he calmly follows you on the roums. in a duel, you are on an equal footing, the best player wins. It all depends on who will win the roams.”
Defensivity1 says “Shen is not difficult because of shen himself, but when an opponent is low shen can ult them, he is difficult to beat in lane level 1-3 CC Tankyness and damage
Communicate his level 6 to your team and try to splitpush.”
Delvoid says “Hard to kill since he can stop alot of your AA based dmg. Wait for him to use his W to win trades. Keep him pushed under tower to stop him been able to use ulti cross map. Because of this make sure your vision is good”
Mordekaiserrrrrrr says “Shen is pretty easy to fight all stages of the game, but if you let him taunt you and Q, he will deal quite a bit of damage, so if you can avoid that laning should be fairly simple. Also, your E will cancel his ultimate channel, screwing up his attempts to save an ally from lane. ”
NirvanaBunny says “I haven't seen a Shen support in a while. Be careful for his sword skills because it can do some damage. Also, he has some good all-in potential so please be careful!”
LoL destroyer says “Shen has a lot of Magic Resist and can teleport to you and away from you. A well times E-Q can help, but with a typical Shen build, your maxed out Q won't do much damage.”
MisterDerpFace says “Watch his Q cuz it empowers his auto attacks, and his W because it blocks your W since they count as auto attacks. he can get tanky so careful.
And finally, if he ults try to E him or hit him with your R so that he gets slowed when he finishes teleporting.”
Penguinoverlord1 says “He is scary because he will out roam you all game with his R, but its nice if you can get a good push going before he can return to his lane since Yorick can take towers extremely fast. Be careful about when you engage as his W can block both your Q and your grunts and Shen is considerably tanky.”
aurus666lol says “His W is blocking our Q and E. If you want to win, take ignite and try to make one-way trades by using extra movement speed from passive.”
Liko888 says “Shen is pretty dangerous, he trades even/positively if he is knowledgeable about how to play the matchup, and he has great gank assist and map control. ”
YoungTact says “When he activates his enhanced autos DISENGAGE. Punish him for every cs with the Q-Passive combo and look out for his taunt with W. If he taunts within your hitbox, it WILL go through even if you W it. PAY ATTENTION TO WHEN HE IS ULTING so you can cancel it with either E/R.”
qasddsa says “This is an easy lane; dodge his taunt as he can do a lot of damage to you with empowered auto attacks. You shouldn't be pushing much as he can get in good ganks with his taunt. Max Q and proceed to freeze the wave at your tower and farm.”
ERNESTSAURUS says “FLEET FOOTWORK / CONQUEROR SETUP - DORANS SHIELD / 3 REJUVENATION BEADS + POT =
Shen is the type of "tank" that deals a lot of damage of his Q with Grasp Procs and overall his kit works really good against Duelist and Hypercarries. As for laning phase since his kit peforms better into agressive laners rather than Passive laners such as Nasus, he will struggle to find chances of poking you hard enough to the point that you are really low but this doesn't mean that you should go super confident, play passive and respect his Early game power. Once you hit lvl6 and Sheen spike you can start doing short trades into him since Shen lacks of sustain and remember Nasus lvl 6 is a combat ability where Shen lvl 6 is an utility ability, keep in mind you outscale him really easily, so if you can't find any scenario to kill him just farm and you'll be fine. Also Shen now builds Titanic Hydra most of the times, but you can see some that go for Sunfire Cape or even both, the point is that both items help Shen have a better wave clear, which means that the wave will always be on your side of the lane. Later on splitpushing is sort of not worth it since he can R to his team and force a 5v4 teamfight and Nasus can't stop his R animation, so its overall better just to teamfight, you will outscale him easily.”
SubHuman Filth says “Shen can also be hard. I go grasp and sometimes 3 points in q. You just q him when he goes in for a taunt, walk away from him and auto him afterwards.
Electrocute goes thru his W, so thats an option too.”
Grayified says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash. Long sword refillable potion start. Shen early game can take very good short trades with you. Be very careful about his sword positioning, if he pulls it through you he can get a lot of extra bonus damage and attack speed against you for a solid trade. You can start looking for allin trades with shen around level 4 (unless he wastes his q level 1 and 2 for farm instead of using it to trade with you.) When fighting against Shen what he will do is use his q, block auto attacks with his W and then taunt through you back to his turret, so in this matchup when you are going for an allin DO NOT position between Shen and his escape path if you dont think 100% sure you are killing him. If you put yourself between Shen and his escape path he can taunt through you dealing extra damage and disengaging from you. This will save you extra hp on each trade. At level 6 is when Tryndamere can start to really dominate Shen. Shen gets an ultimate which is USELESS for a 1v1 and Tryndamere gets 5 seconds of being unkillable. You can run tiamat with lethal tempo build in this matchup if you would like to put some extra pressure on Shen and his turret. One tip about Shen's W is that it blocks auto attacks but only on himself and other champions so if there are minions around shen when he W's and you have tiamat you can actually hit the minions or use your tiamat active and still damage him. If you are looking to dive Shen, try to bait him into taunting you under turret, this saves you from having to chase him down through his dash away from you, also puts him right on top of you and you start the dive with an auto attack which is what you want. Before you look to dive Shen, make sure you "prepare" him by taking short trades with auto attack + spin out (while dealing the spin damage on the way out.) In the mid-late game splitpush you outscale Shen in the 1v1, but it can be hard to dive him effectively because of how tanky he gets. Make sure that every time you shove Shen in that you are doing 1 of these 3 things, make sure you are looking for trade damage on Shen, make sure you set up deep vision to protect you on the splitpush, and make sure you look to take enemy jungle camps when you can. You can get leads on Shen in the splitpush without killing him, but always look to pressure him first. If his team is closeby and you dont wanna risk getting caught out just place some wards or take some neutrals. If it is pure 1v1 though you should always look to pressure Shen and look to get him low enough so you can dive him.”
GodMulti says “Shen is pretty damn strong against Sett. I would recommend taking PTA with you, because you only want to take fast short trades and don´t stay there for too long. His Field where he dodges every auto attack is his key to fight you. Try avoiding it at all cost. If he dashes to you, stun him while he is mid Air with your "E".”
STIERNACKENTYP says “Shen is a very good matchup for GP. Lvl 1-3 he is super strong but after that u always win trades if u play around ur barrels. U can powerfarm freely and always ult when he ults.”
EntxRecoil says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash. Long sword refillable potion start. Shen early game can take very good short trades with you.

Chili Dog says “Runes: Conq, Triumph, Tenacity, Last Stand + Magical Footwear, Cosmic Insight.
Sub Runes: CDR, Damage, Armor
Summoners: Teleport.
Shen is a super annoying but manageable match up. A simple kit that counters Riven directly. However, on the off chance that you dodge his taunt, try to not to waste your autos while he has his W up. Wait it out and trade with a W-Q into fast combo once his W is down. TP is a must have because of his ult. Once he gets his tiamat he will try to shove lane and ult onto a teammate. Once you see him do this you have three options: 1. You ping him missing and keep farming lane for a gold/xp lead, 2. You teleport down with him for a counter gank, or 3. you ignore the wave and try to stop his ult with Q3 or W. Later in the game you want to avoid Shen as much as possible, dive the backline then get out. I suggest a Tiamat in this lane to match his push and contest his Ult or TP.”
Darrkescru says “Runa : Aery , Grasp
Tenta desviar do E dele se você for tomar ja usa o Q pra ele não conseguir te dar 3 hit's de graça se ele perder o E pode agressiva sem medo dele”
Swaim says “Shen is your only matchup i suggest you go ignite since most shen players go ignite.ALSO his e is a REALLY long dash which can escape your q or his passive sheild can make him survive so having ignite will kill him most times ”
ZergDood says “You're both tanky, you're both good at peeling, and neither of you are great damage dealers. Poke him, disengage when he gets the rare aura in which he strengthens his AAs, beware of his taunt and interrupt his R. If he goes in a bush, ward it or facecheck it, use your E/R to prevent him from ulting. Your W stops his dash.”
qazx1427 says “What is it with Ionians countering Yorick? Shen just blocks everything and never leaves lane, leaving you completely unable to do anything for the entire game. Easy pick on the ADC? Shen. Splitpushing top? Shen. Go off to get a sandwich? Shen. No fun allowed, shovel boy.”
Adolfie says “Shen is basically the same as jax, he can block your Qs with his W + he has a lot of dmg thru his Q. You will definetly have to stay back for the first levels, do not try to fight him early on. ”
Ayanleh says “Shen is medium difficulty. He has decent damage, has some good CC and can set up ganks pretty well but you outscale him so you can play safe early and get some items.”
HIGH TEST TOP88 says “Strong lvl 1 and thats about it, if he ever taunts into you, just wait for his W to expire then hit him with your full might and he dies. If he doesn't, walk up, E Q AA AA and then walk away, he cant respond.
You win really hard after lvl 6.
You can cancel his dash with your R.
Take bone plating.
Take mr or armor depending on enemy jungler.”
Twist21 says “Against Shen it is all about playing around his taunt.If you dodge it and kite around him when he is in W you will win easily.One tip that I would give when playing vs Shen is be patient when you are trying to dive him since he has many ways to outplay you.Standard runes and sums for this one.”
Shumair says “He can't build MR due to Mordekaiser's magic pen passive and he can't build health due to your passive doing % health damage, along with Liandry's if you purchase it. Due to this, a good Shen will either go full support for teamfights and peel or full damage. In either case, ulting him in teamfights is always VERY beneficial. In lane you should always have eyes on him in case he decides to ult. In which case, your E or ult will stop him. He can only kill you very early on with a good taunt, after that it's free.”
wallobear53 says “Position properly and don’t let Shen’s Q pass through you as it will allow him to deal a lot more damage and will allow him to win the trade quite easily. Always kite away from him if he tries to fight you.
Trade with him every time his E is down. It is his main form of mobility and without it he is quite an easy target to kill during a gank.
Once he gets his Ultimate, he will be able to make cross map plays and ruin gank attempts on other lanes. Try to save your CC for such moments and if he manages to Teleport successfully, just look to shove in the wave and make sure you get some Tower Plates.
”
G0DHAND says “this guy can counter your 2nd skill if you don't focus on him. Make sure you get the first hit because if he wil.....well your probably dead!?”
Fiora Pogjet says “Shen is hard to play against. He has tankiness, will build armor but still has a lot of Damage in the early game. he can outtrade you with his Q and his W will save him from you Q on him. If you can prarry his E dash then you will for sure get a kill and win the fight. lvl 6 you will be much stronger than him, but care about his trades.”
NullPC says “Deceptivly tanky and can block your autos play around his taunt, if he misses it run him down if he engages then kite back with your w up to escape. ”
liggergolly says “these 2 are the only ones who destroy this champ in lane as their gimmicks so i cant say avoid one thing just beg for ganks i guess i dont get them so i wouldnt know if it helps”
ModxLoL says “I think Shen typically wins this lane right now just because he's a little overpowered as a champion, but with that being said, I'm putting it as even because I think Riven deals with Shen better than most champions, and when Shen isn't overpowered Riven wins this lane. Two important things in this lane is to 1)dodge his taunt and 2)don't fight him while his dodge ability is active. Be careful of his first two levels. He has a really strong early game especially since his new passive buff. Once his taunt and his dodge ability are on cooldown, you can look at all inning him if you have poked him down hard enough. This matchup gets significantly easier after you get your Black Cleaver. ”
Stiwy says “He can have preety good trades early with his all-ins + grasp procs.
After level 6 he does not have a real ult to fight you so you can try to get him low enough to be executed.
Remeber to ping your teammates when you hear him shouting strange words because he is ulting and he's trying to pressure other lanes. You should be able to cancel his ult with your E if he is dumb enough to ult in the middle of the lane or in some unsafe locations.
Don't try to dive him because his dash can screw you over.
Take Cull and aim to farm.”
Fourpaws33 says “An early lane bully tank. Not a good combo. He will out trade you in lane and will make you feel useless if you roam. Avoid his e during a 1v1 or lose 100% of the time. Not a fun time.
Ban him or don't pick into him. ”
gsaeyx says “Build full AD. You lose early game but win post 6 and you also outscale his entire family so no need to worry. If he ults in vision just charge up a full q as he have no way of stopping it. If he engages with e tank his burst before charging q.”
Kingarthur720 says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash. Long sword refillable potion start. Shen early game can take very good short trades with you.

BloodyDream81 says “Match up assez simple, respecte le jusqu'à ton niveau 3, et il ne pourra plus gagné les trades, gardent quand même quelques notions en tête.
Fais attention au placement de son épée spirituel, et ne te mets pas entre elle et lui si possible, car si lorsqu'il appelle son épée avec le A, l'épée te traverse il gagne un gros boost de dégâts sur ses trois prochain coup !
Attention également à son Z qui est un dome arrêtant toutes les auto attacks pendant 3 secondes, temporise pendant la durée en te positionnant derrière lui pour anticiper son E qu'il fera pour battre en retraite, et utilise ton A pendant son dome pour ne pas rien faire.
Une fois niveau 6 le match up est très simple, et si il se positionne mal tu pourras très facilement le punir.
Astuce : Pense à le garder en visuel, et si il essaie d'ultime un de ses alliées, utilise ton E pour cancel le sort. ”
Dantheman81 says “I haven't ever really had trouble with Shen, however I can advise never try to tower dive him at medium or below health as you will get taunted and die. If he ults to save a teammate either teleport and follow up for team fight, or stay and push out lane. The most optimal thing to do is to ult in lane and then teleport but if it isn't up don't worry about it.”
Xplor says “Shen is not a major threat, however, he can dash you, hit you with his Q, he can have his shield up and his W AoE which can block your burst attacks. This happens if you go all-in pre-6.
After level 6, things become better when you play against Shen as his ultimate is supportive only and not as offensive as your Maiden.”
Darrkescru says “Shen bem jogado e um saco ele vai te acertar o taunt usar o Q te dar 3 auto atack e você não vai ter como devolver a melhor estrategia e desviar do E dele fazer ele pisar em um cogumelo pra tomar slow e caitar ele”
Angela du Seithr says “Même si son E et son positionnement peuvent favoriser à Shen la victoire, il n'aime pas spécialement se faire harceler par des sorts. Toutefois, faites attention à son spike Au Bout du Rouleau qui peut grandement surprendre.”
Alzeidx says “He cant do much, if you are at 100% rage and have conqueror, bait his parry zone, then all in and wreck him, if he R to help his team mates on mid or bot, see if you can TP, if u cant, just push lane and get the plates, it is one of the easiest matchups u can get.”
TotallyEclipse says “You can probably kill him super early, save your e to block his damage after his w comes up and walk away. spam ping your team when he gets 6 so they dont die to his R plays. Once he gets some armor, you wont be able to kill him in lane, but he cant really kill you either. Outside of lane with a few items you'll shred him”
Dedrick says “He can negate your autos with his W, stopping your passive and winning any trade because of your poor damage outside of Ignite and Empowered Q/W. He's also able to match your ult with his so it's hard to make plays in the late game.”
JuarezLOL says “its literally hell in laning phase against shen as jax
but the moment you realize you will dominate when you get your ruined king
it will become paradise just wait for your ruined king”
MateuszNH says “Hard matchup.
He has stronger lvl 1 fight if he get's passive, otherwise you can try your luck. His power spike is at lvl 3.
Try to survive until lvl 6 without getting much grasp+q hits and you can try to beat him in all in, during his W don't even try to AA him, keep your ulti for the entire time.”
DirtyDishSoap says “Respect his early game.
He'll outdamage you heavily from the first few levels. Wait until Sheen and you start winning with 4 ghouls. I would suggest going all in first, but wait until he dashes before casting your wall.”
report singed ty says “Does a LOT of damage and takes no damage in return. The riot classic for tanks is they are best at both worlds, and shen is a good example of that lately. He will chunk you down early game with just 2 autos.
This lane isn't tough though, try and W him when he ults because it cancels it, make common sense trades, and proxy when it makes sense.”
Sq_09 says “Kind of the same as wih Sett. If he hit's an E, you take damage. If you play him on max range you can safely poke. Keep in mind tho, that his W blocks your slow, so don't try and kite him in his W. ”
SabinX says “He has a strong early but with ult you should be able to kill him. Also punish his ult to other lanes with pushing for plates. If sanguine is finished you may actually be able to take the tower in one go.”
HIGH TEST TOP88 says “RESPECT HIS EARLYGAME DAMAGE AND ITS FREE, HIS W CAN FUCK YOU BUT IF YOU E - Q AA AA YOU WILL GET GOOD TRADE + HE WILL WASTE HIS W, ABUSE THIS TRADE VS SHEN AND ITS FREE”
Subject3 says “shen does counter you, his auto attack with his ability can do % hp based damage, and he has a barrier that blocks auto attacks, what do you do? bait it, after his 3 auto attacks he is rather useless so obviously he will try and disengage after, dont let him, make him regret going in, your q slow will help in that.”
Auntbetsie says “Shen can escape really easily with his E and with his passive just makes him a lot harder to kill. Remember to ping your lane for missing Shen as his alt lets him roam.”
thelaser_6000 says “he gets really annoying to face early game, and if you int early and die a lot and shen gets fed you immediately lose the game unless you have a plan.”
Discord Rengar Mains says “ Shen is a skill match up, but usually free. Wait for him to blow his auto negate and use your combo. If he doesn't use it then blow double w to heal back to full and run back into brush and repeat until diveable or dead.”
Gwndimi says “Just silence his ULT yes that works keep him in lane and he is no useless
you can easy stack alot of health on this guy using grasp build”
CounterBlad3 says “His auto prevention is easy to play around as long as you simply wait it out or hook him out of the range. He can't beat Darius in long trades so don't let him get away”
Itreallyhim says “Skill matchup, He doesn't win trades unless he has Empowered Q. Remove his Ult from the game if it feels like it will make a great impact, If not then dont bother. It doesn't remove the shield, only his teleport.”
LycheeMochigome says “His W negates your w, one of the match ups where i would consider wasting my w on minions so by the time he goes in on me and uses w, skaarl's w comes back up by the time shen's w is over”
Quincy98 says “Shen is another complete counter, but unlike Renekton his unique kit can keep him under tower for a little while at least.
Shen really struggles early game, so call for ganks often and as long as he does not flash out, you should be fine.”
HeyItsLeemo says “Shen can be tough and annoying, but once his W expires you're allowed to get free hits and passives on him, not that horrible if it's a newer Shen player.”
lugzinho says “His Q hurts a lot since it deals Max Health damage and it will proc Grasp.
His W just blocks yours
But just keep in mind that you can cancel his R channel with your "Chaaaaaaaarge!!!".
If it gets too tanky to the point he wins fights, just push the leane and look for roams with your R or TP (if you brought it)”
Blazeofepicness says “He has a really good level 1, 2 and 3. Bait out his auto block shield thingy before you all in. Level 6 you are much stronger, but he can look for plays around the map. Buy an early tiamat and shove him in. ”
Thr3shPrinc3 says “This matchup can me quite difficult if the Shen is really good with his champion. He can cancel out your empowered auto attacks by staying near his sword and using W. The bonus is you can cancel out his dash with your flay and thus deny him from taunting you. This matchup will depend on how good the Shen is. Watch for when Shen uses ult as you can cancel it out with both Q and E so you are a hard counter for him in that way. If he does ult try and follow with a Teleport if you can and think you can win the fight. Otherwise just keep pushing your own lane and get turret plating. Midgame you are going to be stronger then Shen unless he gets a lead in another lane and late game you can just focus other targets and cancel out his CC.”
ForgottenProject says “Will outrade you level 1
Level 2 you hard win
Parry one of his empowered Qs unless you know you will parry his taunt
Don't try to hit vitals when he casts his W, you can’t.
If you’re behind don't try to fight early, wait for your rav hydra unless you know you will win
If he uses his E onto you, you can force, he has no escape”
Blakespeare says “trade when he has used his q or w, once he has used q force an engage away from the spirit sword to stop the w block. recommended starting item is Cull for you wont be doing a whole lot early.”
Braddik says “You beat him early, spam ping your team when he gets 6 so they dont die to his R plays. Once he gets some armor, you wont be able to kill him in lane, but he cant really kill you either.”
Trial_By_Barrel says “A pretty easy match up. Orange out of taunts and poke him. Watch out for when he ults and ping it when he does. You win trades. Poke and farm and try to pressure him.”
Pedrokis says “Skill matchup; caso o Shen for muito bom ele ganha, você só não pode deixar ele colar em você por muito tempo. / Se você for ficar muito avançado na torre dele, cuidado pra não chegar tão perto assim, ele pode te dar um taunt e um slow com o Q (puxão da espada), provavelmente te matando e tirando sua vantagem. / Você tem 4 skills que podem interromper a ult do Shen: os seus 3 Qs e o seu W (que é o mais difícil de se usar, já que o tempo de puxar é quase igual ao tempo da ult dele). - Abuse do seu E e do seu flash pra interromper ela ou acompanhe-o com o TP.”
BeautifulWinter says “Prior to 6 passive Post 6 Agro.
Super standard just ping his level to remind people of his teleport (his R).
Respect his early damage but once you hit 6 you win.”
Big Belly Bop says “Watch out for his taunt. Poke him freely, and E out if he decides to all in you, simple lane but can go very wrong in one mistake. Flash + TP, Doran's Blade + 1 HP, Sustained Damage.”
ExfIamed says “Shen wouldn't be a problem if his auto attacks didnt do 20% of your HP each auto, but if you go boneplating into that you should be okay, just E while hes doing his thing that blocks your Q and autos and then q afterward. Keep doing that until hes low then kill him.”
ElementalZyrus says “His whole combo hurts and stops you from doing any damage, especially with his dodge barrier. Avoid the taunt and you'll be fine.”
MadYordle says “The blind like effect similar to Teemo is very dangerous to you however his lack of range against you might force you to get good trade damage.”
Loevely says “Predictable and easy to play around. Grasp makes this matchup relatively easy. He does do a a surprising amount of damage so do be careful. Never fight in his W and always use empowered W to cleanse his E.”
ENX Kai says “Blue ninja, can block you AA and W effortlessly. Can global roam with his R. Never dive turret vs this ninja. Watch out for pre 6 gank. Play extra safe.”
Defensivity1 says “Shen isnt much of a threath in lane, other then being a great champion to lock you down so his jungeler could gank or burst you down withouth you being able to do anything against it against shen the conqueror page is recommended the main threath that makes shen an even matchup is being able to ult one of his allies, which might cause your entire team to die, if he ever ults away from toplane siege his tower to punish him for the decision, even if it turns out in his favour you will get a lot of gold for tower and potentially be able to roam if you set up a roam timer with the toplane minions. ”
Quezel says “Shen will beat you early game because of his strong early trades but after level 4 he becomes pretty much free just remember to spam ping his ultimate after 6 to remind your team and try to keep vision of him as often as possible to use your e and r to cancel his r and stop him from rotating to fights.”
GokuBurakku says “His W will take away your trial by fire if you hit him. So don't do it, if he taunts you orange immediately and walk away. Then go in after his W is down.”
SNOBOY says “Shen can block your poke with his shield. Laning against him is hard but you can do it. Get an early Liadry's to deal with his tankyness.”
mightydylan101 says “Shen is a pretty good champ because he is a tank but also does a decent amount of damage early. In this matchup just farm and then later on you can carry your team with the AP late game. Don't try to trade shen too often as he can hurt.”
ProgettoYorick says “Against shen it is feasible to stay in lane, put it as difficulty level 3 for this reason, in lane you will decide whether to push or freeze the lane. The only problem it can give you is its ability to block hits, it will block your hits including Q + the attacks of your ghouls, fundamental damage that yorick needs
Advice from OTP: no dive shen is very risky, even if he has few hp, and you are trying to do damage to the tower with him underneath, it will be an instant and your lane will be lost”
Skarner Main says “I dont see alot of shens but respect this guy if he runs grasp he deals a fck ton of dmg get 45% cdr and go for short trades with him
”
Karnan says “Only a big counter if you max W. Pressure his lane with autos and Qs and force him under turret. Then he has to make the choice of ulting a fight and missing chunks of gold and exp. ”
AlienMV says “Be wary of his E range. If he goes through you, he will get empowered Q and you will be significantly chunk with little choice of retaliation because of his W.”
OneMustFall says “Shen himself is probably not going to kill you. What he will do though is taunt you once his jungler is near and make it impossible for you to get away. He's annoying cause you'll have a very hard time killing him and because he has two teleports he can turn fights around the map and still prevent you from just taking his tower. Your jungler will likely need to help in order to do much in this lane.”
T_ired says “Jogo fácil, esquive de seu taunt, ele pode dar muito dano, não troque em cima de seu W, tome cuidado com ganks, maximize seu Q e mantenha distancia contra ”
TerryTheWolf says “DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE SHEN's DAMAGE! I used to not respect his early game damage output, but in the hands of a real Shen main, it could be deadly! You must wait for your ultimate to come up and try to trade with him since his ult can't be used in 1v1's.”
Her0mars says “Shen's update doesn't really make him any more of a threat than he already was to you, cancel his R with your E / R, or simply kill the person he's shielding. His new dodge circle doesn't affect you, but his new % max hp damage and more spammable shield might be a bother. Really if your facing him he'll be on your carries which you can easily peel him from.”
Hamstertamer says “He outtrades you pre-6, so just disengage. Respect his early game damage. But then you win the 1v1 at every point afterwards. When he ults away, take his tower.”
Atlascrower says “You cant Kill him, he blocks your AA´s, his Passive-Shield also blocks Damage. His Taunt is dangerous, but you have and Orange. You can farm safe.”
AsomeSonic says “yall are tanks, you slap each other, keep tabs on him in lane so you can cancel his ult, that's very beneficial to your team, shen will try to hide from you if he wants to ult to he might push waves in, just always look for him”
Chromuro says “He can't really do much, his natural tankiness is the only problem. If you can time your W with his taunt at least you'll do some free damage (+rune proc)”
EpicDan01 says “Shen has higher damage early game, so avoid fighting until level 6. When he uses his ult, you can grab some free turret plates with Demolish, and once you have Sunfire you can beat him every time.”
Poppu says “Proc your Grasp and Q together to poke him down, use W when you bait his dash and you can also cancel his ult with CC. If you aren't careful, his Q can out trade you if he plays smart.”
SoulHero says “He can outtrade you most of the time. LVL 1 E trick works. You can cancell his taunt with your dash. DONT FIGHT UNTIL BLACK CLEAVER OR LATER. You're not gonna do dmg until cleaver. Get whatever starter you want. Don't proc w until after his w, land ur q as he w's.”
Petethebossch says “Free lane. Watch for his shield when trading and ping your team to watch for his ult. He can have strong gank assist with his taunt if you havent warded for ganks.”
PandaSenpai101 says “His taunt isn't that easy to parry/predict. However, your sustain heals you for more damage he deals. Make sure to ping whenever he is level 6, as you don't have CC to cancel it.”
Ninchakii says “If he's good he will fuck you up, just go in with his W on cooldown, if he taunts you then it's no problem since you'll do the same without the taunt”
Prince Afghan says “The only reason Shen isn't a 1 is because you are unable to stop his ultimate ability. Shen will be able to simply ult right in your face and you won't be able to do anything about it. Otherwise, Shen is fairly weak in lane and his kill pressure is going to entirely hinge on getting a gank. Make sure you ward well if you are pushing and you will otherwise be safe.”
MadMaster523 says “This is a pretty easy matchup . U can easily poke him down. He doesn't have much burst and it's extremely hard for him to get up to you.”
Lil Tidepod says “Shen can be annoying because of his taunt and his sword. The sword can give him decent damage and attack speed, while you're forced to attack him. He has a dash which he can use to dash out of your Q. After one tank item, he really shouldn't be able to kill you. Do be aware of his ultimate if you're fighting him or a team mate, though: it can easily turn the tide of the fight because it shields them for an insane amount.”
ImpossibleLogic says “This is a big match up to Aatrox. Shen is like a better version of Tahm Kench. Not only can he force fights but he can also take zero damage from any of your abilities with his W. Not to mention he has a world ult that also grants shield.”
DrMoneybags says “Shen doesn't tend to be too hard to beat in lane. With conqueror on your side, he's pretty easy to chunk out in trades. Try not to use your whole W when he uses his W to block your autos. You can easily beat him in trades if he doesn't have his W up, so abuse that to snowball the lane in your favor. Otherwise, just be careful of jungle ganks.”
Arcthunder says “Shen is very scary to face. His W blocks your autos and his Q deals unrealistic amount of damage. However, if he misses his taunt, then you can punish. Also, your Q pull and cancel his ulti channel.”
Zdenster says “Take Conqueror or Kleptomancy. He can't kill you 'till his Jungler ganks or if you don't let him to. Rush Sheen. E him when he teleport with R or TPs.”
TheNinjaRoid says “Can't 1v1 you most of the time. You can't kill him. You win late if you don't fall behind. Just farm up, he can't stop you too much.”
NirvanaBunny says “I haven't seen a Shen support in a while. Be careful for his sword skills because it can do some damage. Also, he has some good all-in potential so please be careful!”
Khazem says “A fairly easy tank matchup. As long as you can avoid getting hit by his taunts by always keeping your distance, you should be able to keep abusing him, regardless of how much magic resistance he builds.”
Ethereal Ezio says “You can't kill him easily if he builds right. Just try to push lane hard when he ults away and ping when he is missing. Nothing worse than being flamed.”
The Lost Drawing says “Es el 'match' como medio equilibrado.
Depende de reflejos de cada quien y estilo de juego.
>>> Le cancelas su 'R' fácil con tu 'E' y tu 'R', y el a ti tu 'R' con su 'E'. Le cancelas su 'E' con tu 'W'
>>> Su 'Q' pega daño híbrido, pero las 'Botas Tabi' hacen la diferencia”
ElleryTheViking says “Used to struggle with this but now it's pretty easy. When you really look at Shen top, he's only got one damaging ability, his Q. Outside of that he's entirely defensive. E Q spam him every chance you get, just don't fight on his dodge circle or go near his tower. He'll use that to cheese for kills. Outside of that it's a pretty free lane. Don't all in unless his taunt is on CD cause its a pretty large leap. ”
SynergyXO says “SHen can out trade you easily. dodge his taunt, dont trade with him after he uses Q due to his passive empowered autos, and his W blocking your autos. skill match up but a little in his favor.. rush tiamat here to shove him in to prevent shen ults.”
E61K says “The only reason he is at Minor is because his ultimate can deny you your Ultimate Reset. Other than that the match-up is simple. Avoid attacking him while he has his Spirit's Refuge up and lastly use your E to hit your Q because he can use his Dash to dodge it.”
SwiftOblivion says “Strengths: %Health Damage, Tanky, blocks Auto-Attacks. Weaknesses: Low Mobility, Out-scaled. With most melee matchups, you want to walk up to the minion wave early and start shoving so that it can crash into the tower and bounce back into you. This matchup is no different especially since it’s Shen who has trouble CS-ing under tower. The last place you want to be is under tower versus a Shen. His W can be a bit annoying because it blocks both auto attacks and your Q. He usually builds tank early game so the later the game goes, the less of a threat he becomes to you especially if you are even or ahead. Another tip is tower dive him with caution because of his taunt which could lead to your death. Never trade with him when his Q travels through you as it gives him extra %health damage on his autos. You will lose pretty much every trade when this is up in the early game. Focus on chipping him down and avoiding his spirit sword from touching you so he doesn’t get the damage bonus on it. When it comes to using Riposte, you can either look for the taunt or his enhanced auto attacks to slow his attack speed and prevent the damage.”
Miracle Matter says “Shen is annoyingly strong early, if he ever lands a taunt, but you always beat him afterwards. You can double-bomb stun him to cancel his Ulti, if you'd like, or otherwise let him warp into a teamfight across the map while you stay and casually backdoor their inhibitor with Zz'Rot+Demolish+Sheen/Lich Bane. He cannot keep up with your map control.”
kkiskk says “This ninja sees everything so he usually bring TP with him. Don't be afraid to trade with him. Don't waste your Q when he is in the aura. Watch out if he builds thronmail. ”
Trixelkour says “Out tank you and out damages you IF you let him. Play smart around him and you might just win. Pro Shen players (heh) will typically call for ganks and roam to other lanes to help his team snowball. E when he ults and you should be able to win rather easily after laning phase. Take Grasp for sustain or Aftershock for duels. If he goes PTA get Adaptive Helmet into a Righteous Glory to prevent him from dealing too much damage.”
E61K says “Wind wall the Q to deny him from using his W. It also denies him from making use of his Q. It's tricky to do because you have to position awkwardly but if you manage to do it there is absolutely 0 chance Shen is gonna out-trade you. Build BORK against him. I like to go PD into BORK when facing Shen in lane.”
Omega best says “You can kill him easily, if he uses his taunt before you flip him onto your minions you will win the battle, if he is good than play safe and attack him at the right moments, wait for ganks, build armor and try baiting him, you will win this matchup.”
Zachlikespizza says “You can straight up out duel him at any point in the game. Pretty easy lane. Only thing you need to worry about is using your passive in his w zone.”
ninja8135 says “This guy isn't even a threat until late. Windwall his Q before you go in so he can't get a shield or the extra damage. The only threat he has is the cc potential and remember that his W blocks auto attacks, so jump out of his range when he uses it and go back for more when it expires.”
Mouadyam says “easy lane, no tips needed here just run him down if he gets too close, you should win every trade, but be careful so he doesnt outrade you with his shroud that blocks autos, pull him out of it or use your Q when he does”
Demon Lord AC0 says “Shen can deal a good amount of damage while also being tanky. Tough he is very unlikely to kill you, unless you screw up. Rush BORK and Tabi. I'm not sure if you can windwall his Q, most of times you wouldn't be able to anyway since you'll be taunted.”
Rading says “Dont underrate his dmg especially when he has Tiamat. He has to walk into your boxes but he shields lietarally everything. When he gets ahead you will have a hard time.”
joelblack says “He's like Sion, but actually useful. Your poke won't be as effective and his ult can be a real troll. Just be a normal good boi and build classic tank and you'll do well in end game.”
DERPFISHrejects says “Incredibly good at negating your damage, as he's very mobile and can completely negate your passive, as well as gaining shields and outputting good damage. Try to harass him down, and you HAVE to dodge the E or he will demolish you in trades.”
CamilleN1 says “You have to get tricky with this one since he can block your precious Q's so i would recommend on using your first cast on a minion and use your E on him and second cast Q and while getting out of the harass cast W ”
galvapheonix says “ I haven't ever really had trouble with Shen, however I can advise never try to tower dive him at medium or below health as you will get taunted and die. If he ults to save a teammate either teleport and follow up for team fight, or stay and push out lane. The most optimal thing to do is to ult in lane and then teleport but if it isn't up don't worry about it.”
thedunkening111 says “He can do a bit of damage, but youll do more with your burst. Out fight the man, and don't let him land that taunt. Make him take a walk with you when he uses his circle thingy.
Take Conqueror”

Tips Against Shen in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Riealone says “With Shen in enemy team you have only 2 options when he has R - farm jungle or gank him. It might seem there is no problem, but this champ counters your possible macro plays really hard”
Suseri says “This is a farming Lane you should win after some recalls. His laning phase is stronger since he can avoid you from damaging him but after some items you can't lose if you're not behind. He also has a higher attack range so keep that in mind for trades.”
BullwhipGriffin says “Shen "W" blocks all auto attacks, meaning your Q, auto attacks, and ult do no damage to anyone in a teamfight, refrain from ulting until shen uses "W" unless you can fear him before ulting so he can't use his "W" in time”
Kayncer says “He can rescue his allies in difficult situation which might get you killed, there is no real counterplay to this as he gives his allies shields either way!”
liserith says “He can gap-close pretty well with his taunt dash, but his damage comes from his sword. If you can avoid being in line with his sword, you can duel him super easily. However, his counterganking ability is even better than Pantheon's and he can make a 2v1 into a 2v2. However, he can be easily kited. ”
poopyOCE says “His E (the defensive well) basically wrecks you. It denies all autos like Jax counter-attack and you cannot heal. This can lead to you being easily bursts to beware of his E. Otherwise you outheal his shield and somewhat more useful in teamfights due to ur CC and supress.”
Alcibiades1473 says “Shen usually builds tanky and his taunt can ruin your glorious E charge and with it your day. If you see one consider the bruiser path, because there's a good chance you're not gonna assassinate people unless his R is on CD”
Minase says “Pretty much the same thing with Galio, just have to keep in mind that anytime you're looking for a pick you might need to deal with his R. Nothing to be too scared of just have to keep that in mind at all times.”
BoyWonder00 says “This is very viable right now, especially in higher elos. He can ult the target you are trying to kill and save them, he has amazing damage, and he can stop your W with his E. Powerful all throughout the game and will be ganking a lot. That is why he is called "River Shen"”
DarkPit59 says “Shen a la capacité de vous appliquer un CC très puissant tout au long de la partie et d'infliger de plutôt lourds dégâts. Il dispose également d'un ultime global qui peut vous counter-gank assez rapidement et ruiner votre burst. Trackez le délai de récupération de son ultime et gardez en tête que vous nettoyez la jungle plus vite que lui.”
tschu says “Does well against tanks in general. If opponent is stacking tanks, though, you shouldn't be playing utility trundle. Build some damage and on-hit instead. Against one, just ult them and proceed with the fight. Easy!”
The Top Bear says “The thing about Shen jungle is that it is meant to help his teammates, but not himself. If you attack him directly and shut him down, you can ruin him.”
Laverenz says “A really tanky champion with an ability to duel like no other. His taunt, Q and W makes him one of the best fighters in the game. His ult is also something you don't always have in mind.”
VF PentaMasteR says “Because of his nature of being tank but still doing damage, you will have a hard time killing him in early game at 1v1, since he can block your auto attacks, W, E, and he can manage to leave if he is feeling uncomfortable in the fight. Still, not a big threat at the late game.”
fetlol says “Be ready for Shen's ultimate, and be careful when he shields an ally. Your attacks will do damage, just have a lower chance to actually kill confirm.”
King Mydos says “Shen in the top is annoying to lane against. Don't ban him, but try and avoid going in on him while he has his w available. If you can't hit him, you can't damage him.”
yers says “%HP damage in his Q, and a taunt dash, you do not want to get close to this guy. Look for long range poke and only commit to an electrocute AA if you stun him.”
ReallyBoring says “He has a ability that negates ALL your damage due to it blocking autos.
Taunt basically just kills you because you drop your axes.
Global ult.”
Eucalyptus says “Rare but it is one of the few things that is able to completely bend you over a barrel and show you why you should fear the shadows. Don't pick Graves into him, ever. He is the one match-up that simply cannot be won if it is even slightly close to even.”
Mkcoolness says “He can counter your laning phase and can cancel your ult. Just be careful while versing him and always use your Q to last hit minions to poke out his ADC since he has no healing.”
