I find that Shen is the biggest energy burner of all energy users. Yes he uses energy, but it isn't limitless. Look at his Q, take in the energy needed and the cooldown. If you spam this skill early game you can be out of energy for a few seconds. These few seconds could've been used to shadow dash away or into the enemy. And the shadow dash, if you whiff it you can be in a time where your down 100+ energy, then most likely your gonna throw your Q and possibly activate your W or ult which could make you wait until the energy is given is regenerated. For this reason alone, you cannot afford to whiff your shadow dash. Planning energy usage is key.
