When Shaco uses Deceive in brush, or in any fog of war, you can see the orange puff of smoke as an enemy. This is quite the 'heads up!' and I feel it kinda weakens him as a champion. I feel many things pull Shaco down from the champion he could be but this I would like to see fixed asap.
As much as I love Shaco, this isn't a bug.
Firstly, it's in place to add counterplay to his ganks (which are fearsome even with his Deceive being visible in the fog of war. A champion that's already able to elude nearly every ward the enemy can place needs at least some form of counterplay, and that is it.
Secondly, if one were to buff Shaco (which I believe he needs), this would be incredibly low on the priorities list. His Deceive being able to be seen through the fog of war doesn't really inhibit his ability to gank.
I would, however, like to see Shaco's clone start imitating buffs, weapon effects, emotes and such, better itemization/scaling, and more ways to do damage other than throw your shiv and autoattack. But I digress.
I disagree. As a shaco main, the Q is really what differs a good and a bad Shaco. I let the enemy see my poof sometimes intentionally to force a retreat. It's all part of the tactical games.
Riot please don't fix the poof
This isn't a bug. It's a design choice, and it's been this way for years (at least since I started playing back before Renekton's release).
