Shen is considered an important general in the Infinity Squad and Hackers lineup, with the main role of a tanker to combat damage in the frontline.

However, if you are lucky enough to own a Tech Core Blade of Time, Shen can become an extremely dangerous champion with the ability to deal very high true damage, up to 250% of his armor.

This is becoming a strong trend in the current meta of the game, especially when paired with items like Oath of Protection, Mercury Robe , and Cannon.

Team Reviews

Shen has been improved to become a general carry formidable in the Arena of Truth season 8.5. Thanks to his ability to deal true damage from the hero upgrade core, Shen can fit into a lineup of 6 Guardians and 3 Hackers. And will take on the main carry dame role.

Leblanc will play a supporting role in the backline, while Garen will become the strongest tanker in the squad. With this upgrade, Shen will be an integral part of every squad and will bring more chances to your team to win.

When to Build Shen Carry?

If you find core technology "The Blade of Time" then you can immediately turn Shen into a powerful assassin with the ability to deal extremely annoying standard damage in the current version.

How to play?

Shen Vejun lineup is quite easy to play, mostly you will play revolves around 6 Guardians and clamp more Hackers if necessary. However, you will only Build Shen Carry when the Blade of Time core appears, so it will be a bit difficult for you to build a complete deck and match from the beginning.

This lineup is also unnecessary Not Reroll Shen 3 stars, so in my opinion fast 8 is still the best strategy for Shen Ve Quan with Hackers.

Early game stage.

Let's start the match with the lineup 4 Guards so you have the ability to increase the spawn rate of Shen related cores.

If you don't have Shen's core yet, continue playing as usual and focus on the Guardians. However, in case you can't get Shen's core, you can switch to using Kaisa.

Mid game

To build a squad around general Shen, you should level 6 into stage 3-2 and is considered to have a core of the Blade of Time. If you don't have Shen, use the money to roll until you find him. Because the entire strength of this squad depends on Shen, having Shen is extremely important. Level 1 Shen with Cannon is also enough to carry in the mid game, but don't forget to add as many Guardians as possible to the squad. Because that is the basic strength of this squad.

Once you have Shen, save money and level 7 to complete the squad. Unlike squads that need 3-star champions, Shen-centered squads focus on activating the system, so 3-star Shen is not necessary for the squad to still work well.

Late game stage

Your squad will Complete standard form at level 8 with 6 Guardians and 3 Hackers. Hackers are a very important part of this squad, as it allows Shen to rush straight into the enemy's backline. If you don't get a 3-star Shen, the Hacker also helps Shen avoid being targeted and stay safe. In addition, try to accumulate as many items as possible to increase the ability to buy time. Prioritize magic resisters because this squad already has too much armor.

In short, the formation of 6 Guards and 3 Hackers is a powerful tactic in the Arena of Truth. With the support of the Hacker, Shen will become very formidable with the power to destroy the enemy's back row. Instructional articles Build Shen TFT Ours ends here.
