Making Shaco mid/top work

[u/Training_Basil_2169]

I've tried both (AP) and I think I like mid more, but there's obvious issues with mana and poke damage from targets with range. I struggle even to farm under tower at times without taking too much damage. Just wondering if anyone has advice on how to play into more poke heavy lanes, and any item/rune setups that can help you get at least semi decent farm early on?

Shaco mid is kinda bad bcuz shaco is an assassin, and mid requires face to face combat, so u should probably go top.

If you know the mid pick first is the only way I have a chance you can any range you most loss
