It's so easy to counter him it's stupid. Too much true damage, %health damage, etc. And when he FINALLY gets his ult, there are a million things that can stop it.
I mean, we already have so many offensive abilities that can't be interrupted (nocturne ult, vi ult, etc) (not including terrain) except by a few things. Would it really be so bad if we had a defensive ult that was actually good?
LoLKiru3 votesLux's ult is absolutely DISGUSTING (and really should be interruptible, but it would need to be a channel to be like that, similar story with Ezreal) but Shen's ult is a channel, and thus should follow the same logic, similar story to Twisted Fate (albeit he can teleport anywhere in his range), find a time to use it when the enemy CAN'T interrupt it.
Its almost as bad as when I see Jhin (allies and enemies alike) activate curtain call three feet away from someone with hard CC and then just getting stopped before they can fire a single bullet.
Dominick Destine2 votesKind of funny how 
has a low cd uninterruptible ult but Shen's ultra long cd ult gets owned so easily.

"guys the snipe ability is not held to the same standards as the cross-map TP that saves a valuable target and turns the tides easily!"

"guys AoE large radius nuke ability with huge damage potential is given nearly infinite concessions compared to the ultra high CD ult that might save someone every now and then!!!"
Fix'd
OurLestrade1 votesThe fact that it's global is already powerful enough. I think it'd be good if you could manually cancel the teleport so you could give someone the shield but stay top to farm :P

You mean like Nocturne's ut? Except hit ult can't be interrupted. I mean, if an assassin is allowed to have a global ult that can't be interrupted, why not Shen?

The dash component on Nocturne's ult is not global. Only the darkness is.
As a matter of fact, Shen is the only champion with a global range teleport ability. Stand United is the only ability in the game, bar the summoner spell Teleport, which allows you to move anywhere on the map. TF and Pantheon, who used to have it, lost the global component on their ults so long ago that most people don't even know Destinty and Grand Skyfall used to be global.
Nameless Voice1 votesAllowing the ultimate to be interrupted gives it some counterplay, some way for Shen or his opponent to pit their skills against each other to determine the outcome. It's easy enough to avoid being interrupted by backing away to a place where your opponent can't reach you.
