Twilight Assault on

Twilight Assault into
Shadow Dash and at last
Spirit's Refuge.
Twilight Assault is a very strong ability of
Shen in order to build up a lead and dominate your opponents. The passive is called
Ki Barrier and there is no need to set it manually on a Shen Build.

Biography
Among the secretive, Ionian warriors known as the Kinkou, Shen serves as their leader, the Eye of Twilight. He longs to remain free from the confusion of emotion, prejudice, and ego, and walks the unseen path of dispassionate judgment between the spirit realm and the physical world. Tasked with enforcing the equilibrium between them, Shen wields blades of steel and arcane energy against any who would threaten it.
