Tips Against Shen in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“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.”
“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.”
“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. PHASE RUSH IS A POSSIBILITY IF YOU SURVIVE EARLY. PHASE RUSH IS A MUST IF YOU TAKE TELEPORT.
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. You can take Teleport if you want to be able to match his ganks. 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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Can be difficult to kill since he can block autoattacks aswell. Gets quite tanky but he shouldnt have kill pressure on you unless he sets up an gank with his E. He will roam after 6 with his ult so be prepare to teleport where he is going or to stop it with your stun.”
“Minor: There is little kill pressure from the opponent in this lane.
More information found below.”
“Free lane: keep your distance from his Shadow Dash (E)”
“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.”
“Your W cancels his E and (Used to?) cancel his R. Your E still 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.”
“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.”
“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”
“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.
”
“Try to fight him at level 1 with your E. Remember that his W blocks your autoattacks even your W. Be prepared with your E when he will be in air to taunt you just press E and you will minimize all his dmg. ”
“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!
”
“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. ”
“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. Rush PD.”
“A good shen will play it safe, use their taunt to disengage. Run Teleport, use your E when he is channelling and force fight. Bait out his abilities. If he's running Teleport he'll be able to match a split so Juggernaut may be a decent option. Shove him into tower and try invading if he's playing too safe. Doran's Blade to Ninja Tabi to BORK or Black Cleaver”
“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.”
“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”
“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.”
“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.”
“He actually deal a lot of damage. Use your Q to slow him. He's easy to kite.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Very easy lane. Weak tank. He can block our hemorrhage stacking with his W briefly but it's not enough to be a concern. ”
“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... ”
“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.”
“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) ”
“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.”
“Avoid letting Shen's Spirit Blade go through you as it lets his Q do bonus % health damage. His Twilight Zone blocks all your damage except parry. Parry E or empowered Q. Remember when diving to avoid his taunt as it can mess your dive up. Ping when missing as he can ult to impact other lanes. Go Manamune if he goes Bramble Vest and Ninja Tabi.”
“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.”
“Shen W can cancel your E AA, but aside from that he is not really difficult.
You can cancel his R whit your Q or W.
If you poke him enough and hit 6 you should bea ble to kill, if not, then do not give him more kills or lategame its going to be difficult, or impossible if he peels the backline.”
“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, Sunfire Cape, Mercury's Treads) (Unstoppable Force cancels Stand United and Shadow Dash) ”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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. ”
“Easy to win after BOTRK but before that its better if u just short trade while his Q is on cool down ”
“Do not fight him in w.Bait his e and you should be able to take winning trades.”
“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”
“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.
”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Typical tank - Build Liandry's and Rylai's = win”
“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”
“Klepto
One of Fiora's easiest Matchups, he does a lot of damage earlygame but gets outscaled very fast”
“Shen jungle just sucks and will always suck.”

“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.”
“poke and stay out of his range”
“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!?”
“I'm gonna be honest, if you understand how the enemy plays his champ and you understand Shen's kit, you shouldn't lose lane because he is very easy to play”
“Refer to Match Up Section”
“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".”

“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.”
“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.”
“try to avoid his Taunt. Shen dont gets a lvl 6 powerspike so when u hit lvl 6 just try to kill him”
“Permaban this motherfucker, literal cancer to lane against him.”
“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”
“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. ”
“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.”
“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.”
“He is a weaker duelist and has weaker sustain. He has a small comeback in lategame. His W negates ur dmg but u can still reset ur Q.”
“beats you in 1v1 with his shield up, but you can force him to stay in lane with your pushing power. punish every time he uses ult”
“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. ”
“Blocks alot of Yone's abilities and with the buff to his ki, he can cause you to go to 20% with one combo if not careful.”
“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.”
“this champ just inst balanced”
“Minor: There is little kill pressure from the opponent in this lane. More information found below.”
“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.”
“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. ”
“Just trade outside his W radius.”
“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.”
“urgot relies heavily on auto attacks particularly purge procs and shen can oout trade heavily early game with his w ”
“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. ”
“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.

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.”
“She's not that scary but you should communicate with your team when they has 6”
“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.”
“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.”
“As for jax, in this machup there is anything to do with his full combo.
You lost also your potential splitpushing.”
“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.”
“As long as you can avoid his taunt, he cant hurt you.”
“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”
“A very strong pick right now. You can kill him lvl 6, but he is very safe and can take good short trades against you.”
“unwinable lane phase. once you get greves bc you can 2v1 him and jg but really hard to deal with him”
“rush black cleaver.
CDR
Dodge his taunt.
”
“jego W sprawia ze rzygam”
“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.”
“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.”
“One of the easiest match ups just don't try to trade in his "Ring of no damage" and avoid his empowered Q and you are good to go.”
“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.”
“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”
“One of the better tanks into Yasuo due to his good base damage and his anti auto attack zone. Try to fake out your movements to bait out his stun because if you do get hit by one he can get a pretty good chunk on you. Kite away from him when he puts down his W and go back onto him when it runs out. Post 6 the lane gets a lot easier due to him not having an ulti for lane while you do. Don't position yourself between him and his Q or else you will make his Q do a lot more damage than usual. Lastly, his E has a pretty big CD of 18sec lvl so use that time when its down to really abuse him since he won't really have much damage once it's down.”
“He will win if you can't kite and bait his E. Let your team know when Shen has R.”
“He cant stand up to you in a prolonged fight, but cant really run away either. ”
“He cant stand up to you in a prolonged fight, but cant really run away either. ”
“He cant stand up to you in a prolonged fight, but cant really run away either. ”
“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”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“If you avoid his passive then you should be fine ”
“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.”
“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.”
“Shen can block your auro-attack just like Jax. And with his e he can taunt you very well. So watch out and play safe.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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. ”
“He is horrible to trade with if your fighting a good one, if your fighting a bad one than don't play too aggressive.”
“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.”
“Can proc Grasp almost anytime without any real threat.”
“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”
“Really annoying with his W, try to find every opportunity when it isn't up or where he is low on energy to trade.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Pega Clepto com Determinação(osso revestido e demolir) pokea, toma cuidado com gank e avise sua equipe do lvl 6 dele.”
“Can't do anything against you, you just heal everything back and he doesn't have the damage to stop your healing.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“ 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.”

“Shen fucks over any melee in the game that isn't either a meaty damage machine from the early (Darius, Garen) or doesn't rely on autoattacks to do significant damage. You are neither, so the odds are stacked against you. The problem with Shen is that his passive shields make him naturally tanky, his W is basically an AoE Jax E for his entire team, and his global pressure is massive after 6, so you can only really rely on your W and E to deal with him and if he gets ahead he will win fights all across the map since you can't really stop him. If he ever misses his E he is fucked for a bit however, so you can try engaging then, baiting his W, and then going in again, but it's more likely than not that he will just withstand whatever you throw at him and then just walk away. Always keep an eye on where his sword is, if he hits you with it while calling it for his Q he can easily take half your hp away. The only reason this matchup isn't rated as 5 is that you can at the very least survive it and if you get a lead it becomes significantly easier, but it's difficult.
Tp + Flash is recommended, it's very hard to kill him in lane on your own, plus it can be used to follow his R channel. Either grasp or conqueror are good, and stasis works wonders if you are behind too much.”

“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”
“His q shreds especially early so keep out of melee range. Look to q after he dashes or if you think you can interrupt.”
“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.”
“If he misses taunt hes killable.Dont let him get his Q through you.”
“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”
“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.”
“his "W" can destroy ur combo i think nothing more”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.)”
“Shen will just block all your autos”
“Poke Shen out. As long as you don't get taunted, it's an easy lane. AP or on-hit. ”
“Be careful of Shen's dash, other than that you will out-scale him”
“poke with Q and all in when he's 60% hp, play around with his taunt ”
“Shen is pretty tanky and negate a lot of your damage. He can also taunt you out of your W. Don't go for unnecessary trades.”
“Skill Matchup: Will add more later”
“Win: Will add more info later”
“Easy Matchup, (hint: Interrupt his Ult with your q and use e in his fiel of no AA)”
“really bad match-up, you wont make any dmg and he will block your spells ”
“This guy has on hit on his Q and he also deals magic damage and autos you to death, this guy tho, only has auto attacks. TABI”
“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. ”
“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)”
“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.”
“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”
“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.”
“Shen es tank avec beaucoup de degats il counter votre z avec le sien .”
“Hes annoying to deal with, you guys have similar map pressure, dont take trades in his w ”
“Al igual que Jax es 50-50.
Le cancelas su iniciación tanto como su R, pero cuidado... los primeros niveles pega demasiado”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Info will be added soon”
“When you fight him you need to respect his q dmg, try and avoid it and save w for efter his zone.”
“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.”
“His Taunt is the only thing you should be afraid of if he does not land that taunt, you can shit all over him.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“His whole combo hurts and stops you from doing any damage, especially with his dodge barrier. Avoid the taunt and you'll be fine.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Big threat, he has a taunt and is very tanky as well as high damage output so try to avoid trades”
“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.”
“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. ”
“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.”
“Pressure him enough post 6 that he cannot ult botlane. He beats you early, so be careful. ”
“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.”
“Grasp Is Your Best Chance. The Rest Is Mechanical.”
“Just farm Shen is mostly just a tank and ping the when he is lv 6.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“Annoying to lane against, parry his e if you can, play safe and play for late”
“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
”
“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. ”
“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.”
“Use you Q when he uses his W. He will have to walk out and you can auto attack him.”
“Don't get taunted and you pretty much auto-win this lane.”
“His laning phase isnt that good so you can abuse him then. cancel his R with yours. MORE IN THE HARDEST MATCHUPS SECTION.”
“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.”
“Shen's W allows him to tank your boxes without taking damage. Play passive and attack when he uses his W.”
“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.”
“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 ”
“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.”
“Start DShield. Hard to kill, try to zone from CS, be wary of ganks, and don't let him teleport/ult away for free.”
“He could block most of your AA with his W so its best to take a trade when its down
”
“Easy matchup. Shen only has a shot at killing you between level 2-6. After that, you have too much power with Feast for him to overcome. Both his W and R are pretty useless against you, and he's not particularly mobile, making it easy to land your Q's. The only thing Shen has going for him in this matchup is his Q, because it does max HP damage. Don't let him pull his spirit sword through you and you'll do fine. If he goes all-in with taunt, it should allow you to easily land your skills and out trade him. With that said, Shen is always still useful for his team because of his ult. Try to keep vision on him and interrupt it if possible.”
“Try to auto then Q E so you get passive before he shields.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Easy... Thats it. Melee low dmg you know the drill.”
“Pre six you'll loose the trade. If he ult's, destroy his turret.Cloth+4.”
“Mantén distancia y podrás ganarle sin problemas, el problema es su aguante.”
“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”
“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)”
“O W do Shen cancela sua passiva, então tente Baita-lá antes de bater nele.”
“Very easy. You outdamage, get free farm, and can stop his ult with your E or ult. Careful around his turret of taunt.”
“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.”
“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.”
“This is basically a farm matchup, your job is to stop his ult when he goes for cross map plays”
“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!”
“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.”
“Whos the best?(blind pick)”
“Shen's engage is his disengage. Don't auto when he uses his W, and abuse your Q.”
“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.”
“He can cancel your auto attacks, easily taunt you under a turret and get tanky very fast. Be careful not to let him get ahead.”
“Shen can't hurt you unless he E's you under turret. Your stacks still apply in his W therefore it should be a simple lane.”
“Has nice denie on your W”
“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.”
“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”
“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.”
“Don't fight him while he has the block zone.
Try to poke him with Q and E away if needed.”
“Bait out his e and do short trades in ur minion wave”
“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.”
“Bait is taunt and shield, you should be ok.”
“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.”
“If you doubt yourself, you will lose. Yourself is your greatest enemy.”
“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.”
“Bait out his W.
Do not tower dive.
Look to cancel his Ults.
Has weaker 6.”
“Taunt, AA block, shields and can ult targets you want to assassinate.”
“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.”
“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.”
“- Work in progress -”
“Not a Meta champ currently”
“The thing is most of the vi joestar counters are characters who ethier burst you down fast or characters who cc you”
“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.”
“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.”
“Can be tricky but not inpossible try to poke early”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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. ”
“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”
“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.”
“He can shield himself berfore you hit him
and punish your mistakes. ”
“Shen got that big chunk of HP so he would be difficult to fight.
”
“Just farm Shen is mostly just a tank and ping the miss enemy when he is lv 6.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“You can kill Shen in the early game if you dodge his taunt and dont attack him when he has his dmg-blocking field - his (E)”
“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. ”
“The funny part about Shen is that he's the only tank who you can still beat later on.
Get mercs and you've already won lane.”
“Pretty boring matchup, he is sooo tanky, but also he can't kill you. Look for the plays elsewhere.”
“His W can counter your W. If he lands the taunt you pretty much lost your W Dmg. Other than that should be a easy lane.”
“78.9% that you will beat him on lane and 54% that you will win game against him”
“Take Grasp.
Just wack him.”
“His w counters your w. But you can outplay him. Just br careful of his taunt and dont dive him.”
“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.”
“He better than you in lane but you very strong team f inight”
“Annoying. Can taunt you and can counter you with his W”
“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.”
“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.”
“Shen has a relatively decent damage. His Spirit's Refuge (W) counters your Conqueror and Ultimate very very hard.”
“A bit annoying but he can't really kill you so.....”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“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.”
“If he E you under turret you are f***ed.
He can also block ur AA with Q+W.
Only go in for some Trades if he dont have W or E.”
“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.”
“While tanky, his only engage is also a taunt and taunting a Darius isn't a smart thing to do.”
“He's not very good. Try not to let him roam and get kills.”
“Tank, with a great counter to your combo with his sword-shield thing.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Dificl de mais o W dele te countera muito ”
“Currently Testing...”
“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 ”
“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”
“ 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.”

Tips Against Shen in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“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”
“Better one shot them quickly so shen cant ult!”
“He can't outdamage your healing. Try to dodge his sword and dash and he shouldn't be able to chunk you. Freeze the lane as always, since hes pretty gankable. CC him to deny his ultimate!”
“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.”
“There's no threats for River Shen. Nobody can match him.”
“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.”
“Counters you in every aspect. If he builds thornmail, its game over.”
“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 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.”
“Unable to fight you. in teamfights he'll probably taunt you. Maybe get QSS for his taunt.”
“The tankier he gets the more you can steal from him. Should be a relatively easy lane. Try to knock him out of his teleport with pillar.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Shen can basically make your auto attacks useless, and since this is something you rely on, it's a big counter for you.”
“Shen has % damage just like you so be wary of him as he tends to do the same damage use you steadfast presence to avoid him taunt.”
“after he hits lv 6 be sure to atack only 50% hp targets”
“This guy is pissing every 1-shot champion in this game. Possible to overcome, but very obnoxuois.”
“His W blocks auto attacks which really hurts Tryndamere because he is a auto attack based champion like Jinx, Twitch or Kalista.”
“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.”
“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.”
“His ability to block is a real pain in the ass and hard to deal with.”
“Alpha his Taunt and you are fine. Other way around if he taunts you into his team.”
“not hard to kill, go in with all and will be easy kill”
“If he lands his E you could be in danger but otherwise, fairly easy match-up.”
“Shen gets really annoying when you can't hit him with your basic attacks, your only chance is if you burst him down.”

Tips Against Shen in Bottom Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“if he catch you by his e and use w you are useless you can do anything he can give shield to enemy adc by his r hard matchup”
“%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.”
“Added because he is every ADC's worst nightmare. Blocks your W and makes you useless in teamfights once your Q is down. ”
“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.”
“He can really punish your missteps, and shrug off a lot of your damage. Don't get taunted.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Not only can Shen deny you kills for Ace in the Hole, he can appear to gank you at any time he pleases.”
