Shaco literally has a critical problem with his Deceive(Q) Patch 6.18-19

Im an old Shaco main with easily over 4000 games with him and i've seen all kinds of bugs happening with him all these years but so far this is the most game breaking bug on him.

So basicly every single time when shaco uses his Hallucinate(ultimate) and uses his Deceive(Q) he loses his quarenteed critical strike chance from his q if the clone basic attacks any enemy unit before the real shaco does. This bug occurs when shaco uses Deceive BEFORE or AFTER his Hallucinate(utimate).

What normally should happen is that it doesnt matter how many times or when shaco's clone basic attacks enemy champion before shaco does if he has used his Deceive(Q) to be able to critically strike. He should always be able to have his QUARENTEED critical strike(100% critical strike chance) for the next basic attack within 6 seconds of his Deceive(Q) cast.

This bug occurs against any enemy unit(monsters, minions enemy champions) as you can see from the video clips i have recorded for youtube.

This is an incredibly game breaking bug for shaco and it needs to be fixed immidiately.

This bug occurs on EUW for me since i only have accounts on EUW but its most likely global problem with Shaco's Deceive(Q). This bug also occurs at ALL times.

Shaco actually has A LOT of bugs =\ ive been reporting many of them for months to no avail =\

His Q doesn't properly jump over certain terrain. Example bottom lane on the purple side in the tri bush heading towards gromp jungle area. If you jump from there towards the tower sometimes he jumps towards the river instead even though he can make the jump as I've made that jump 10000 times =\

His Boxes don't trigger the passive tribute

His clone sometimes ignores orders and just starts to follow you.

Targeting an inhibiter with your clone the clone gets confused and just walks around the inhibitor for a bit before stopping and attacking it wasting time and auto attacks.

Clone often gets stuck on minions its AI is very bad

If you try to send your clone on one side of a wall while you walk on the other side of the wall the clone often tries to back track towards you taking a very long path to get to you when you didnt even tell it to come to you =\ so you end up fighting with the clone for it to listen to you.

If you Q towards a person and you have smart cast on. If your mouse is over them when you Q shaco will start to do an attack animation. loose his invisibility and not auto attack he just walks. Even if the person you Qed on or to close to was not in your sight. Example if they are in bushes and you Q into the bushes ontop of them and didn't know they were there.

I can go on with shaco bugs for a long time :(

ya, that needs to be fixed now, that crit while clone is up can be the difference between dying and living.

also, im not sure if this is still in game, but have you noticed that if you deceive then place a box and let it hit a monster, you wont crit on monsters after?

+1 for actually being productive and efficient. Plus look at all the video evidence

But does the reduced damage still apply or all all effects of his Q used on the clone? Does it crit?

If I'm being honest, I'd say his most gamebreaking glitch is one of the few that work in his favor, the one where you double stack the boxes that allows him to fear literally anything including enemies doing animations/attacks are can't be cc'ed. I mean, it's literally creating an interaction that's supposed to be impossible in the game and are meant to be advantages to a lot of these moves.

Now, I'm not asking them to fix it or anything because I find this interaction awesome. I'm just saying I find this more gamebreaking than this :p

I noticed this last night with Spellblade effects as well, or at least iceborn, when I ult, the clone applies the effect but I dont
