How to play it

✓

Respect E + jungle

His E taunt is only dangerous with jungle help nearby: junglers love to play around Shen early.

✓

Run him down 1v1

When he Es in without backup, run him down: you beat him 1v1 and he's easily abused by your E.

✓

Poke early, win later

He's only stronger the first few levels: respect his level-1 with ignite, then poke with Q until you take over.

✕

Never let the wave sit where he can safely taunt you: keep it near your tower and short-trade.
