works well but you have to know your Shen. You (and your AD) can outtrade most people thanks to Vorpal Blade (max first) cause you both heal off that and more than well if you grab early health. If you have strong early AD(Draven), take taunt lv2 and grab your free double kill. If not, take Feint and block for your AD and take taunt at lv5. Shen is a REALLY good support with new buff to support gold (for masteries go 21 def 9 off (CDR -magic pen)). Still he is much better in top lane so take him as support only if top is taken (jungle Shen SUUUUUX ballz now).

Go pure tank with only Kages as AP item and rush sightstone (but for your first back grab KAges or chain vest if you take too much dmg). Start cloth 1ward+pots (you need only  ward cause you should control bush easily)
