Is Shen better when played alongside Qiyana?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Shen that will always be his #1 synergy. However, overall, Qiyana is a very bad ally for Shen. By being on the same team as Shen, she decreases their win rate by -3.1% to 46.6%. This shows that there is a very bad bond between Shen and Qiyana that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Qiyana has a much greater difficulty compared to Shen. That means you should be careful when lining up Qiyana comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Working alongside, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to buff allies and debuff enemies. Together, these champions should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

Conversely, by bringing Shen and Qiyana together, you probably will not be giving your other allies a lot of anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Qiyana ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
