While I agree that Shotels beat the Champs, I can see what's the writer implies with saying they're bad against them.

While the Shotels don't need 4 upgrades, but only 1, they also need a Castle, which sometimes isn't affordable, at least in the early-mid Castle age.Furthermore, while they win 1v1 to Champs, they're somewhat cost inefficient, at least in terms of gold. While they cost just 5 more total resources, if we look only at the gold cost, we will see they cost 15 more, which is 75% of a Champ.

And in a test of x shotels versus 7x/4 champions, they champions will always, crushingly, win.But that doesn't make shotels TOO bad against them, just a not cost-efficient counter.
