This difference could indicate that Rengar does not help protection for him to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Shen is played alongside Rengar on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Rengar. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Rengar.

Additionally, when Shen plays with Rengar on the same side, he on average takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Rengar does a decent job of covering Shen during teamfights.

Is Shen better when played alongside Rengar?

There is no top synergy for Shen that will always be his ideal synergy. Yet, Rengar is a below average ally for Shen. By locking into the same side as Shen, he decreases their win rate by -2.1% to 47.6%. This shows that there is a harmful bond between Shen and Rengar that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Rengar has a much greater difficulty compared to Shen. That means Shen players should be very careful when arranging Rengar comrades to play with, as they will require a much greater level of skill to play well with you.

Playing alongside, Shen players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these champs will be a great protective duo.

In contrast, by grouping Shen and Rengar together, you will not be providing your side a great deal of AP. Make sure to include other champs on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of your Rengar ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
