How to play:
Shen is a Baron Lane tank that can be really strong in the laning phase. He can use his early damage and crowd control from Twilight Assault and Shadow Dash to catch his enemies off guard. Shen’s ultimate, Stand United, allows him to take a split push play style as he can ultimate away to anyone on the map and give them a huge shield.
Shen can also be played in Support role, make sure to check the alternative build at the top of the page! The build with Shen Support is very similar to Baron Lane and there is not much else that is different in terms of playstyles. The one thing to keep in mind is you will be playing Aftershock, meaning you can play aggressively in the laning phase trying to land Shadow Dash.
Shen’s Abilities
(Passive) Ki Barrier
Shen gains a shield that absorbs damage for just over 2 seconds after completing an ability. If the ability affected at least one champion, Ki Barrier’s cooldown is reduced by a few seconds.
In addition, Shen gains energy when his abilities damage an enemy. This means that when Shen uses Twilight Assault, most of the time he wants the blade to go through enemies so he can reduce the cooldown of the shield and gain energy to use even more abilities.
(Skill 1) Twilight Assault
Shen recalls the Spirit Blade, enhancing his next 3 attacks to deal additional magic damage. If the Spirit Blade passed through an enemy champion, the damage bonus is increased and Shen gains attack speed.
When using Twilight Assault, it’s important to make sure you are within melee range so you can follow up with a few auto attacks with the enhanced attack speed. Enemy champions the Spirit Blade passes through are slowed for a few seconds while moving away from Shen.
(Skill 2) Spirit’s Refuge
Sends the Spirit Blade to an allied champion or himself, creating a zone that blocks enemy attacks for just under 2 seconds. When active, the protective zone blocks all enemy basic attacks.
This includes any on-hit effects or spells that count as basic attacks. It’s really important to master the timing on when to use Spirit’s Refuge and who to use it on.
(Skill 3) Shadow Dash
Shen dashes forward, dealing damage to enemy champions and monsters, taunting them for just over a second. Shen can combo his Shadow Dash with Flash to extend the range of the dash to catch enemies off guard.
Most of the time, Shen will be using Shadow Dash to start a fight and then you can combo that with Twilight Assault so the Blade can go through the enemy to slow them and gain attack speed.
(Ultimate) Stand United
Shen channels for a few seconds, shielding an allied champion in the process. The shield scales based on the target’s missing health. Upon completing the channel, Shen teleports to the target ally. This ability is a global ultimate meaning that this can be used on any ally anywhere on the map.
