He's a bit weak ATM, he needs some buffs.

Ok so I know a lot of people prefer the old version of Shen but I personally feel that his newer version is much better.

Kai Barrier Passive is perfect. It generates a lot of free effective health with the use of his Q. And abilities used on enemy champions decreases it's cool down so it gives him a lot of power in a team fight.

Twilight Assault is a much better damage ability. It makes him scale very well into the game and stay relevant. Outside of lane phase Vorpal Blade never felt that impactful. The sustain was nice but ultimately useless the longer the game continued.

Spirit's Refuge is a terrific mechanic that gives Shen a ton of effective health. Denying AA's for 2 seconds is huge if you trade into enemy minions. It negates all that damage and let's you win trades with potentially no health lost.

Shadow Dash essentially the same skill except it now deals damage! What is not to like? Oh well it's hit box is kind of wonky.

Stand united is the same ability as well. This ability should scale with health and not AP. AP is sub-optimal on Shen and is more troll than legit in his build path.

The only other thing I'd like other than health scaling on ult is fro him to be able to throw the spirit blade out as a skill shot from his Q and retract it for the empowered AA's. As it stand the spirit blade is fairly static and kind of feels tact on to what is an otherwise pretty inspired kit. Giving him the slow as a skill shot creates some reward for landing it and some counter play for the enemy being able to dodge. That and it is really tacky currently trying to land it. The only guaranteed way to get it is to Shadow dash past them while pressing Q. It's also not beneficial to try and walk up past and enemy and leave it there in the Hopes they engage and you get to pull it through them mostly b/c you are going to be calling it back with Q b/c you need the damage to farm.
