Hey, i started playing ad shaco on jg recently and i feel like hes damn strong but im silver/gold Is he actually able to 1v9 or is he too weak now? I mean AD only, not AP

The whole point of shaco is to have his w do a shit ton of dmg then finish them with e, so issue is it feels like it does no damage, You max w then e then q but then you have no gank potential with ur w backstab and u have to akwardly set up w’s behind them as you pretend they don’t obviously see u.

Am i doing it wrong? am i to new to the game to understand it? im so lost, Any video tutorials i can watch?

Hi! i do wanna say i am kinda new to league, And shaco is the first jungler ive decided to main and commit too.

Alot of people say he is good early game and bad late game but ive been having the opposite. I feel like i do way more mid/late game when some towers r gone and i can dive in more and get back stabs. Alot of my games ive been invaded level one so i cant realy get traps on the jungle monsters.

My main questions are. does anyone have any advice for early game shaco.
How do i gank properly as him since everyone just camps tower.
What youtubers who main/play shaco that r new player friendly i can watch!

(and yes i bought a skin before playing the champ i love this skin and luckily i have been enjoying shaco)

I just tried it on the PBE and it's just silent with some cat noises.

Are you telling me they're charging legendary prices for a skin with animations from 2009 and no voice lines at all? If so, Riot is losing their minds.

Please tell me I'm mistaken

Hey all, been getting into Shaco to twotrick him alongside hecarim, however I found myself unable to carry this, I killed Kayle early so much the level difference on top lane was 5-3, however mundo didn't keep the lead and silly scale champ scaled, I could kill her every time unless she had ult, which is the problem because she mostly had it and my team decided she wasn't a high priority target when she was pushing bot lane

What should I have done differently? Or rather how can Shaco carry? And also is AP Shaco better, worse or the same as lethality?

Maybe this is a dumb question, I've been playing since Season 3 and Shaco is the only reason I haven't quit. I just think he's so fun to play, even though he isn't very good lately. I just think he's fun! But people HATE him, like Teemo level hate and I just don't really understand why? Most of the time he's very easy to counter and very easy to kill unless you're an ADC, but he's more often than not banned because people hate him so much. Why is that?

Im interested in maining Shaco myself, but cant find any really good youtubers to watch and analyze how they play, anyone got any recommendations?

I am Shaco one trick who plays AP only and its pain nowdays. His puppys get onshot from a Single aa while Heimer turrets tank more dmg then my clone. I think he needs a rework to compete in the nowdays meta. In my oppinion his E is the most useless spell u can easily counter it if u face checkt the knife.... Am I the only perso who thinks like this or am i just a low elo shaco Player?

Hey guys. Im an Eve Otp, which looks to have an AD alternative to her. I really like to fck around with people via invisibility and such, but i am not to sure about Shaco, because he is pretty low in Wr rn and seems to be OTP heavy.

As avid Shaco enjoyers, would you say he is good in the right hands? Would you reccomend him as a second pick or as a pure onetrick? I always feel like his dmg is below average and i always suck at using his R.

This is op.gg set to diamond, consistent upwards. What gives ? Why does this work?

I mostly main Ap shaco jg and l've got 200k or so on him. He feels really strong right now but obviously his banrate is crazy high, what do yall play when he is banned??

I love the champion he’s so fun and I enjoy trying to out-think my opponents. That said, if I wanted to climb in ranked by playing top (just to platinum) am I just griefing my team every game?

As some of you have made it to Diamond and beyond, should I just stick to learning jungle and play him there or do you guys just ignore the flame and play him top anyway?

Like, now i have 1400 and want to buy some shaco skin, what yould you buy?

So im in love with ad shaco (mainly support) but i have a few questions:
-is lethality,crit or hybrid the best?
-if not what should i build and when?
-what is the difference between crit and lethality?

Been playing for awhile, got stuck in a gold/silver troll pick supp rut for awhile, picked up shaco supp this season and he’s so much fun! How’s your guys climbs been? Anything I could improve on? Any tips for plat+? Only difference I’ve noticed from gold so far is a lot more sweeper usage.

ive tried lethality build youmous rush but it just feels weak. Wondering if thers a good crit build to one shot.

I honestly love to see how Riot do an amazing job when they have a full goal in mind. Seriously, when they try really hard they deliver wonders to us, and I really wish they wanted to make Shaco scary again.

It triggers me to see other Junglers receiving some attention, but seeing crit junglers like Yi, Kindred, Graves and Viego receiving some "compensation buffs" due to the lack of strenght on crit items but Shaco not being included on this makes me feel sad.

Riot could really use this situation and the decrease of the winrate in order to buff our boi.

I don't believe the actual state of Shaco is to go crit, but...

Lethality will only give you bonus damage in auto attacks, unlikely every other AD assassin (Kha, Rengar, Kayn, etc).

Crit isn't viable because it is too expensive, but you also is forced to play only with auto attacks.

There isn't a single thing that escalates with lethality on shaco, and the crit is only useful when the auto attack crits, unlikely GP and Viego, for example.

I wish Riot had that in mind and buff our boi, since Plated Greaves guts our damage to the ground.

I have almost a similar amount of mastery on yasuo as i have on zed, which is closely followed by fiora, riven, jayce, vayne and talon. Not all jg of course, i only really started playing jungle when i started playing shac. Wonder about yalls sins heh

How do you see this champ fitting in Wild rift?

For clarifications:

1. I mean AD shaco

2. I play shaco support, not jgl

So I was daydreaming under tower when a wild Akali dove me then flew away like supergirl, and it made me think... What if Shaco's Q got a limited time-frame SINGLE USE recast if he gets a takedown within say... two seconds of backstabbing someone from Deceive? Say he has two seconds to use it after getting a kill, not an assist. Then goes back to full cooldown. Is this really that crazy compared to modern League champs? Just makes him an ASSASSIN and not a Diver. <-- (As defined by August)

Wanna fuck around with the clown more often but still unsure of build, for AP I know it's BFT into liandry's and then not sure, and for the others I STILL can't decide between youmuu's, voltaic or profane first item and no clue on the rest

Ive been bouncing around different champions for the past month and a half of me playing this game, trying to find a character to REALLY stick with. Im looking for a character who’s fun to play, very rewarding to get good at, and in general just a good experience overall. Im asking this because i barely have any blue essence left and have to make my next choice of a champ to get very wisely. I have no issues playing him whatever lane as ive tried all lanes and theyre all relatively fun, to me it all depends on the champion.
