Overall, Jayce sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Shen. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Shen helps Jayce perform not as well in competitive League matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Jayce tries to synergize with Shen, he observes a marginal improvement in his total damage dealt. This difference may demonstrate that Shen provides cover for him to dish out more damage or that his presence also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Jayce is played with Shen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Shen. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Shen.
Additionally, when Jayce plays with Shen on the same side, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage could mean that Shen does a decent job of protecting Jayce in teamfights.
