Lillia vs Shen

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Lillia's very high clear speed to out-tempo Shen and reach key AP item spikes before contesting objectives.
Prioritize river control and scuttle vision to avoid Shen's taunt engages and global shield impact.
Focus on scaling through fast clears and sleep setup to dominate teamfights later rather than early dueling.

Jungle Plan

Path for full clears and prioritize Scuttle control when your lanes hold priority to enable safe river presence.
Invade or counter-jungle Shen early only when he is on the opposite side or after he uses (E) aggressively without escape.
Use movement speed and sleep (E) setup to secure dragon or Rift Herald fights, leveraging objective control and teamfight threat.

Danger windows

Avoid river fights when low health or before movement speed stacks are active to prevent Shen's taunt and follow-up damage.
Be cautious contesting objectives when (R) is available, as his global shield can turn fights.
Watch for Shen's empowered (Q) and (E) taunt combo early; do not overextend without vision or lane priority to avoid forced engages.

Early game

Full clear quickly and reset tempo before Shen can contest river or invade.
Avoid early fights in river before movement speed stacks are active to prevent being caught by (E) taunt.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to reduce counter-gank risk from Shen's global (R).

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) sleep setup to initiate grouped objective fights before Shen can use his global (R) effectively.
After completing key AP items, increase pressure on objectives and skirmishes where sleep control outclasses Shen's tankiness.
Respect Shen's level 3 spike when (E) taunt and empowered (Q) trades can force short engagements; avoid isolated fights at this stage.

Win conditions

Convert faster clear tempo into early dragon and Rift Herald control to snowball map pressure.
Use sleep (E) and (R) to set up teamfights and objective steals, denying Shen's side-lane impact.
Counter-gank effectively by tracking Shen's pathing and using superior mobility to punish his taunt engage attempts.
