Sha Lin ▶️ is a Damage Champion in Paladins, added on November 10th, 2016.
Lore[ | ]
This is Sha Lin's official bio currently found in his champion page in-game.
Stories of the legendary adventurer Sha Lin have spread far and wide across the Realm, recounting his heroic exploits and death-defying antics. During his short lifetime, he's already helped topple warlords, recovered long-lost artifacts, and betrayed the infamous Thousand Hands Guild. At least, that's the tales he started spreading.
He's pierced as many hearts with his magical longbow as he has broken with his silver tongue, but as the Resistance faltered in standing up to the oppressive Magistrate on behalf of the common folk, he felt responsibility fall on his shoulder to join his allies in the fight.
This is an unofficial version of Sha Lin's bio intended to more clearly present all currently known information regarding him. Sources can be found here.
Tales have spread across the Realm of the legendary adventurer Sha Lin, toppling warlords, recovering long-lost artifacts, and betraying the criminal organization, the Thousand Hands are some of the stories told about the bow-wielding adventurer. Though he currently fights alongside the Resistance and seems to be rather fond of Ying.
He later accompanied Atlas and a group of other champions into the Shattered Desert to face Yagorath.
According to Atlas, in the Lost Future, Sha Lin would end up dying at some point.
This was Sha Lin's in-game bio prior to the The Damned Frontier update. It's no longer considered canon.
Tales of the legendary adventurer Sha Lin have spread far and wide across the Realm, recounting his heroic exploits and death-defying antics. During his short lifetime, he's already helped topple warlords, recovered long-lost artifacts, and betrayed the infamous Thousand Hand Guild.
He's broken as many hearts with his magical longbow as he has with his silver tongue, but even he has a stake in the current conflict between the Magistrate and the Resistance, standing up to the oppressive Magistrate on behalf of the common folk.
Summary[ | ]
Sha Lin is a damage champion and an oppressive ranged attacker, who fires high damage arrows, dealing more damage the longer they are charged. The Crippling Arrow allows him to cripple enemies. Rapid Shot allows Sha Lin to fire many arrows in a short burst. Withdraw (which lets him backflip away) and his Ultimate skill, Heat Haze, both grant Sha Lin stealth, making him invisible, making him harder to track down and allowing him to slip away when under fire. However, he is very reliant on his skills and will be easily taken out while on cooldown. Player awareness and anti-stealth effects are also a harsh counter against him.

Trivia[ | ]
Lore
- Sha Lin was formerly a member of the Thousand Hands.[2]
- Vora implies he may have only joined and betrayed the group for sake of growing stronger, rather than any other reason. However, it was never specified if Vora was indeed referring to the Thousand Hands or some other group.[3]
- Though Sha Lin's bio describes the Magistrate in a villainous light, the description is merely Sha Lin's own personal opinion on them.[4]
- Based on a dev statement revealing Viktor to be around 5'9 or 175cm tall and comparing it to model sizes in-game and out of game, it was discovered that Sha Lin would be around 5'8 or 176cm tall.
