Overall, Shen sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Master Yi. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

When Shen is an ally to Master Yi, he observes a little drop in his total damage output. This could signal that Master Yi does not provide protection for him to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Shen is played alongside Master Yi on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Master Yi.
Additionally, when Shen plays with Master Yi on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Master Yi does a decent job of protecting Shen during teamfights.
