Overall, Ornn sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Shen. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Shen helps Ornn perform worse in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.
When Ornn plays on the same team as Shen, he sees a barely noticable drop in his total damage dealt. This difference could signal that Shen does not support by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Ornn is played alongside Shen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Shen. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Shen.
Additionally, when Ornn plays with Shen on the same team, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may indicate that Shen does a decent job of covering Ornn in team fights.
