How to Play with Lulu as Shen in LoL

The Shen Lulu synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Lulu, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Shen sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Lulu. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Lulu helps Shen perform not as well in competitive League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Shen tries to synergize with Lulu, he sees a marginal improvement in his total damage output. This change may indicate that Lulu provides protection for him to dish out more damage or that her presence also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Shen is played alongside Lulu on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Lulu.

Additionally, when Shen plays with Lulu on the same team, he on average takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Receiving more damage may mean that Lulu does a poor job of protecting Shen during teamfights.

Is Shen better when played alongside Lulu?

There is no one best companion for Shen that will no matter what be his ideal synergy. However, Lulu is a terrible ally for Shen. By being on the same side as Shen, she decreases their win rate by -4.1% to 45.6%. This proves that there is an easy to overcome and exploit bond between Shen and Lulu that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Lulu has a greater difficulty than Shen. That means Shen players must be careful when enlisting Lulu teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.

Working on the same side, Shen players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to soak up damage. When paired, these champs will be able to tank for the rest of their team.

In contrast, by aligning Shen and Lulu together, you probably will not be providing your other teammates very much attack damage. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that offsets this gap in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Lulu ally, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
