Overall, Shen sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Rumble. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This change could demonstrate that Rumble does not support by providing cover for him to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Shen is played with Rumble on the same side, 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 Rumble.
Additionally, when Shen plays with Rumble on the same side, he usually receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may indicate that Rumble does a decent job of protecting Shen during team fights.

Is Shen better when played alongside Rumble?
There is no one best companion for Shen that will no matter what be his #1 synergy. Yet, overall, Rumble is a pretty good teammate for Shen. By playing on the same team as Shen, he improves their win rate by 1.0% to 50.7%. This proves that there is a good bond between Shen and Rumble that results in them performing better together than without each other.
Rumble has a much greater difficulty compared to Shen. That means Shen players must be cautious when lining up Rumble comrades to play with, as they will need a much higher level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
Fighting cooperatively, Shen players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these two might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.
In contrast, by aligning Shen and Rumble together, you probably will not be giving your other allies a great deal of sustained damage output. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that neutralizes this hole in their abilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Rumble ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
