People's ability to play a champion is what garners them to be picked/banned in tournement play. Another factor is a teams ability to deal with what the kit provides in game. Some teams have developed strategies for dealing with Shen so they no longer feel they need to ban him. You often see teams ban specific champions against certain players because they know how good that player is with these champions and do not feel they can best them in any matchup. Elise may be considered absurdely strong by these teams, or they may just not want to face certain players controlling her, or they may feel that her kit fits perfectly with what they plan to do that game. We don't actually know what it is unless we ask the teams why they picked/banned the champion.

I personally don't consider her over powered but I mainly jungle her
