Well, with the right build, shen doesn't fall off.

As I said to MANY people, stop playing him like the old days. League doesn't need pure tanks anymore. Either stack up your utilities and AP and/or DPS.

As for his base tank stats, true, he is pretty low, but he has W. It's the reason why shen's still viable cause of the low CD on that thing, allowing him to freefarm. Just get your Q to level 3 then start maxing W.

Shen now has an issue, he can't just freely ult in lane without someone to cover. He use to be able to push lane easily, but now it's more sluggish. When I play shen, I like to freeze the lane towards my side, and shen can freely do that, but that also means I can't leave lane unless I feel like losing my turret.
