How to Play with Shen as Qiyana in LoL

The Qiyana Shen synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Shen, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Qiyana sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Shen. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Shen helps Qiyana perform poorer in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Qiyana is an ally to Shen, she observes a marginal improvement in her full damage output. This may signal that Shen helps provide protection for her to deal more damage or that his presence also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Qiyana is played alongside Shen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Shen.

Moreover, when Qiyana plays with Shen on the same team, she usually takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt more damage may indicate that Shen does a poor job of protecting Qiyana during team fights.

Is Qiyana better when played alongside Shen?

There is no top synergy for Qiyana that will 100% of the time be her top ally. However, Shen is a below average teammate for Qiyana. By playing on the same team as Qiyana, he lowers their win rate by -1.2% to 46.6%. This demonstrates that there is a bad bond between Qiyana and Shen that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Shen has a much lower diffuclty than Qiyana. That means Qiyana players don't need to be careful when finding Shen comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

When playing on the same side, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to support your allies. Together, these champs may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Although, by aligning Qiyana and Shen together, you may not be providing your team much sustained damage output. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that helps cover this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Shen teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
