How to play it

✓

Respect his E

Respect him only when he presses E: it powers up his 3 spike autos; outside of that window, don't respect him at all.

✓

Level 2 all-in

Push level 1 and go for the level-2 all-in: once you've chunked him, keep him low and the lane is yours.

✓

Zone off his autos

Don't let him free-auto minions: if he's zoned to farming with only his Q, his healing stays manageable; let him auto freely and he's fine.

✕

Never let Cho free-auto the wave: that's what keeps his sustain healthy; zone him to Q-only farming.

Shen vs Cho'Gath in Top lane is a favourable lane on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: his E (Vorpal Spikes) empowers his next few autos, that's the one trade window you respect.
