Taking Vorpal Blade at the earliest levels possible, and not having any bonuses to his health, the healing effect on Shen is 20.26 / 27.96 / 37.36 / 46.76 / 56.16, which is an increase of 2.26 / 1.96 / 3.36 / 4.76 / 6.16 across the board at minimum. If you took only the first level and didn't improve it at all up through level 13, it would still heal for at least 40.66, nearly as much as the original fourth rank, but allowing you three extra levels to focus on Feint and Shadow Dash. By the endgame, your average durable champion should have 2800–3000 health, being healed for 106–110, and squishier ones such as Yi would get at least 89.84 out of it.

So, yeah, quite possibly viable if unanimously-increased-and-scaling healing means anything to you. Nevermind how much easier it will be to get the heal in the first place. The cherry on top is being able to last-hit while also proccing the heal for Shen. I'm definitely giving him another few rounds when he's updated (or as soon as I reach level 30).
