@ One of the above contributors It doesn't matter if mana is a wasted statistic on Shen. You buy Frozen Heart not necessarily for the mana, but for the cooldown reduction (which is great!), armor and its great passive that helps push down ADs.

It is a great defensive item whether your champion utilizes mana or not. Same with Banshee's Veil. Banshee's Veil, while not as mainstream as it used to be, being outshined by Quicksilver Sashes due to the fact that you can break out of any CC you want rather than block one ability, is still great for its magic resist, health and shield, even on Shen.
