i think that if you got him already, just take your time to level him up. you don't have to make it a priority if you're not really fond of him :) I heard that he really shows his worth on events like the Nerofest one. His NP, though not doing much damage by itself, can be really good when used effectively mainly because of the buff removal before damage. you can get rid of evade/invincinble/guts and just finish him off with another servant's NP or something. personally i feel that littlest amount of damage is better than no damage at all. plus his ascension and skill enhancement materials are really easy to get (except for hearts) and him being a Ruler attributes to him being tankier as well. His NP gain is also really good and you have Baptism Rite if u need a boost. just be mindful of the long cooldown time.

I've been using him in my party ever since I got him and he hasn't let me down. Helped and saved me a lot during the Dantes event too cos usually he became the last one standing. I almost forgot to mention that his normal attacks does a lot of damage and generates plenty of crit stars as well. Hopes this helps ^^

and btw, i usually just pair him up with Saber Alter and David or Heracles (Buster chain) and/or my friend's Waver, cos I don't have a lot of 4* or 5* anyway and they take up a lot of cost. so far it's all fine and dandy. I don't know that's the best team out there to synergise with Shirou but I went with mine and there hasn't been any problem :) so do try him out with different servants and have fun with him!
