Ki Barrier
After casting a spell, Shen gets a shield. Affecting other champions reduces the cooldown of this effect.
Lore
Among the secretive, Ionian warriors known as the Kinkou, Shen serves as their leader, the Eye of Twilight. He longs to remain free from the confusion of emotion, prejudice, and ego, and walks the unseen path of dispassionate judgment between the spirit realm and the physical world. Tasked with enforcing the equilibrium between them, Shen wields blades of steel and arcane energy against any who would threaten it.

Spirit's Refuge
Attacks that would hit Shen or his allies near his spirit blade are blocked.
Shadow Dash
Shen dashes in a direction, taunting enemies in his path.
Stand United
Shen shields target allied champion from incoming damage, and soon after teleports to their location.
