I agree, I believe that Shen is actually pretty balanced atm. Even though he is still banned very frequently, not a whole lot of people actually complain about him "being OP". I feel that he is just sort of banned out just because people don't really know what else to fill the slot with.

It is also interesting to note that he's banned significantly less in high-elo play. Just watch the champ select during a pro-player's stream and you see a completely different set of bans. When a major S3 tournament rolls around, I feel that Shen's weaknesses will be accentuated more and he won't be considered as much of a "top-tier threat".
