Overall, Shen sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Warwick. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

Is Shen better when played alongside Warwick?
There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Shen that will always be his best synergy. Yet, overall, Warwick is a very typical ally for Shen. By locking into the same side as Shen, he drops their win rate by -0.7% to 49.0%. This demonstrates that there is a weak bond between Shen and Warwick that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Warwick has a lower difficulty than Shen. That means you don't need to be cautious when arranging Warwick allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to play well with you.
Working on the same side, Shen players will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to tank a lot of damage. Combined, these two will be a great protective duo.
In contrast, by aligning Shen and Warwick together, you may not be providing your other allies very much magical damage output. We recommend you include other champs on your team that neutralizes this gap in their abilities.
Regardless of your Warwick ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
