Is Mordekaiser better when played alongside Shen?

There is no one best ally for Mordekaiser that will no matter what be his #1 synergy. Yet, Shen is a not very good teammate for Mordekaiser. By being on the same team as Mordekaiser, he drops their win rate by -1.2% to 51.3%. This shows that there is a negative bond between Mordekaiser and Shen that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Shen has a lower difficulty than Mordekaiser. That means Mordekaiser players don't need to be cautious when finding Shen comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Fighting cooperatively, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these two might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.

In contrast, by bringing Mordekaiser and Shen together, you will not be giving your other allies very much sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Shen ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
