Shaco is a champion that gets punished the most of all champions for failed ganks and wasting time. It is almost not worth to gank at all. I was 80% winrate Shaco main. I left him because playing him just feels bad. Now I play Twitch in jng and I am still 80% winrate, but damn I miss Shaco.

With Shaco you have to be extra efficient, if u are not u fall off. That is why after some matches with him I noticed that ganking with him just isn't worth it. I played by farming only and was winning almost every game. Where is fun in that? Now when jng exp was nerfed he can't do even that. I switched to Twitch, now whatever I do I win, because there are so many ways to get ahead with Twitch. While with Shaco there are only two ways after exp nerf: u have to make a successful gank or u have to counter jungle. Just sad, and it is just to be able to bearly 1v1 Draven while being 15/4 and he is 0/5.

Why Riot neglects Shaco? It is all because of itemization. Shaco builds Duskblade and I was saying it since Duskblade was introduced, but this item is broken. The only way of playing Shaco is to buy this item, otherwise you don't have damage to kill anybody. There is not a single champion that is this much forced to buy some items. He needs tiamat, he needs Duskblade. He is useless without them.

I want Riot to remove Duskblade and rebalance champions that are using it, because this single item makes out for a whole role being bad. Eh, it will probably get downvoted anyways so I am gone. Lets go Twitch my baby.

PS.: They could do so many interesting reworks for Shaco, but they gave him some bullshit boxes on ult xdxdxd "Our job here is done" xdxdd

Old-old shaco was simplier and overall better. He still had flaws, but at least he wasn't punished for not playing less than perfect.

I used to be Shaco main too with 460k exp and 3 seasons in diamond playing shaco only but I had to leave playing him just because the facts you mention. I recently wrote an article too about Shaco and his damage after rework beeing absolute joke. Oh guys... I feel so bad for us Shaco mains... Shaco was so perfect and once they touched him he is unplayable now.

Soon as duskblade / lethality in general gets nerfed, I hope Shaco gets his base stats buffed.

I'm glad I am not the only one who feels this way. Shaco is in a very poor spot especially at the moment after the tiamat and jungle changes too. One of the main issues with Shaco is that he is too reliant on items and even when you do succeed with him it takes much more work than it would with other champions. I wish riot would give him a buff to make him more viable.

remember the times you'd clear your blue/red then walk lvl 2 to enemy jungle to kill them at their buff?

Man, those times...
