Um hello? Sivir is ranged and Noc is melee. Secondly they have different playstyles.

Sivir's a lane bully/pusher. Her shield is there to give her sustain and to keep you from chasing her away from it, adding to her hit and run prowess.

Noc's a ganker/chaser. His shield is there to prevent your target from CC-ing you or from turning the fight around by hard nuking you.

Their shields are different because it fits into their characters for different purposes. Sivir's the immovable object and Noc's the unstoppable force. There's no such thing as "better" except which character playstyle YOU are better at.
