Shen enables

  • Grants temporary HP that absorbs damage before the unit's real Health is touched.

  • Bonus Attack Speed makes a unit attack more often per second, which means more auto-attack damage and faster mana generation toward the next ability cast. Some carries scale beyond that — their ability itself fires more hits when they have more Attack Speed (e.g., the number of swipes in Aphelios's onslaught). Stacking AS items and traits on these units compounds: faster autos, faster casts, and bigger casts.
