Could someone please explain why does this champion have a shield?

Double crit is a neat passive, the Q is a little big but it's also a neat mechanic, the W is unnecesary but whatever, it's a 30 second cooldown, it has counterplay, the E is super annoying but tolerable and the ult is way too strong with his passive but it's an ult so it kinda maybe should be. All that alone makes for a very strong champion (and annoying) champion but still balanceable, not broken from design and which can still be outplayed and played safe against.

Now what I don't understand is why a champion with no mana or even energy to manage, with so much mobility to dodge skillshots, and a windwall to block proyectiles, and a half ranged ability with a 375 effect radius that sets him up for his broken all-in at lvl 6 and 1600 gold, ALSO has a passive shield to protect him when he's too stupid to use any of his several tools to actually avoid the poke. I don't get it.
