This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Kha'Zix.

Kha'Zix has a greater difficulty than Shen. That means Shen players should be very careful when finding Kha'Zix allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to work well with you.
Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to soak up damage. Combined, these two will be a great protective duo.
