How to Play with Viego as Shen in LoL
The Shen Viego synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Viego, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Shen sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Viego. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Viego helps Shen perform worse in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Shen is an ally to Viego, he observes a little decrease in his total damage output. This could indicate that Viego doesn't help cover for him to dish out more damage or that their allyship also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Shen is played together with Viego on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Viego. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Viego.
Moreover, when Shen plays with Viego on the same team, he often takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Viego does a decent job of covering Shen during teamfights.

This demonstrates that there is a somewhat important bond between Shen and Viego that allows them to perform at the top of their game together than alone.
Viego has a greater difficulty than Shen. That means Shen players need to be cautious when enlisting Viego allies to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.
When playing cooperatively, Shen players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to soak up damage. Combined, these champions might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.
Although, by aligning Shen and Viego together, you may not be providing your other teammates much magical damage output. We recommend you have other champions on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their kit.
Regardless of the skill of your Viego teammate, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
