A couple questions about shields

First, about stacking shields.

Say a target Sion receives item 3190 shield, Janna Eye of the Storm, and his own Soul Furnace, before getting ticked down by a Swain.

Which shield would be consumed first?

It doesn't so much matter for the health itself, but the bonuses granted by certain shields. Say, for the sake of argument, that all these shields are shielding for an equal amount. If Sion was to take enough damage to break one of them, which buff is lost first? The mere shielding from locket, the AD from Janna, or the nuke potential from Soul furnace?

The next question isn't so much about the mechanic of shields, but about item 1054 .

If one was to purchase a dorans shield, would they take reduced damage from the basic attacks of champion pets? If so, this should be a considered starting item for any melee playing against a Heimerdinger, as it would mitigate 2/3 of his turrets cannon damage at level 1 (premitigation).

Unless I am mistaken the most recently added shield takes dmg first.

I don't know. I think riot should build a sheild priority list, so "just" shields like locket should die before Buff shields like janna or sion.

If i'm not totally mistaken, the shield that expires next is focused first.

If I had to guess it would be the most recently applied. That would seem like the most expected case to me.

Dorans shield: If the basic attacks of heimers turrets apply spell effects they are considered single target spells, so they would be blocked. Looking at the wiki they do not and it's only the laser so, no it shouldn't block.
