Overall, Shen sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ziggs. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This change could signal that Ziggs does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that his participation also helps increase the round's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Ziggs.

Is Shen better when played alongside Ziggs?
There is no universally accepted best ally for Shen that will 100% of the time be his best teammate. Yet, overall, Ziggs is a relatively poor teammate for Shen. By being on the same side as Shen, he drops their win rate by -1.5% to 48.2%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad bond between Shen and Ziggs that results in them performing not as well together than alone.
Ziggs has a lower difficulty than Shen. That means Shen players don't need to be careful when finding Ziggs comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.
Working cooperatively, Shen players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these champions will be a great protective duo.
In contrast, by bringing Shen and Ziggs together, you may not be granting your other teammates enough attack damage. Make sure to have other champions on your team that neutralizes this disparity in their capabilities.
Regardless of your Ziggs ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
