I think it depends on who you're laning against and whether or not you could go aggressive on them early. If you're against a lane bully who you know you won't be able to straight up slug-fest with like Riven or Renek, who will jump in, stun and then jump out then you should probably go shield,   Against someone who likes to farm and has a weak early game like Nasus blade will get you more sustain and give you more killing potential without costing you too much in survivability.
