Shen is my solo top tank. The best part about him is the ult because it means that unlike other solo tops, he can still be near his team even while he is laning.

Shen needs resists so his Hp Stat matters, but thankfully there are items like Randuin's Omen that tend to help you a whole lot. One of my most favorite items on Shen is Wit's End! That atk speed makes your passive worthwhile, and the magic resist is also great. Since his abilities scale very nicely with AP, I tend to buy Rylai's because it helps me stick so my enemies and that Hp is cool too. If I really want more atk speed, I go for Trinity Force since Shen's spammich compliments it nicely, and paired with Rylai's you become a slow generator, trapping enemies with Q and autoattack, very funny.
