Passive: On cast, attacks gain 25 / 40%

stacking bonus magic damage. Starting from the third cast, gain true damage instead.
Active: Gain 200 / 250%
+ 15%
Shield for 3 seconds, then slice open a rift on the largest group of champions dealing the Passive's bonus damage to all enemies within. Enemies have their Attack Speed slowed by 50% while allies within gain 80% Attack Speed, both rapidly decaying over 3 seconds. Shen always gains his rift's full bonus for this duration.
Shen has no itemized role: we do not recommend spending your completed items on this champion.
His cast shields himself, but the payoff is the rift: allies inside gain 80% attack speed while enemies are slowed 50%. His value comes from the Bulwark relic and rift utility for the team, not from items he holds himself. A champion without an itemized role can still be a strong pick for what the ability does for the comp and for the traits it activates.
