With how low his base stats are, this shield does not seem like a bonus, but rather a compensation for his base HP being so low.

I can just pick another tank and be way tankier without the need of a shield. Btw, there are lots of tanks with shields, such as Malphite and Nautilus, that do not have such abysmal base stats.

Also, fun fact: Going just by base stats, Sona and Vayne are TANKIER than Shen. And they are known to be two of the squishiest champions.
