Shaco , the nerfs
SO , Yea im a shaco main. I like shaco because of his looks and abilities (the stealthy burst assassin). In the last few years shaco has had some crazy nerfs and everyone knows this his game play has been ridiculous the last 3 season. finaly in a few patches prior the dev team added AOE on his boxes to help him with jungle clear but in doing so also reduced the damage of the boxes. this was a horrible decision it has stunted shaco horribly as well as other changes including his recent ap nerfs to E. this really need to be re analyzed because his gameplay has become unfun once again. ive almost gotten to 1mil mastery on shaco so I can definitely tell the difference. Hid AD gameplay is nowhere NEAR as fun as his AP gameplay and now his AP gameplay is nerfed to the ground so its not fun anymore. people are gunna say "pick another champion" or something but I don't feel like that what the devs truly want.
my suggestion would be to give him his AP ratios back first and foremost change the execute on E to a DoT dmg of poisen after the initial damage from E instead allowing his kit to have more power.
change the affect of the boxes to only lower damage against minions if its causing issues this has been done with other abilities in the past.
and if ur gunna make his Q a valuable move it needs to be hybrid as well. there should be no reason shaco cannot take gunblade and do the same damage as other champions that use it.
the game feels so negative when you hafto give it 300% more effort than someone else just to be on there level.
this is most noticeable when playing against other assassin champs that can build AP. MOST NOTICEABLY KATARINA.
Like wow shaco is getting AP nerfs and everything while katarina can 1v5 a team with higher damage and mobility.
with 4.1 / 5.5 / 8.9 kda ratios yet you have 53% wr... [sg-lux-2]
