@Meddler: Do you guys have any idea of the direction of his future VGU?

In the ChampUp notes, it was stated that Shaco would receive some love taps until the time for his VGU came around. Is there any idea of the direction you want him to go?

From the little fragments we could get, I think the 2 things that we can sort off confirm is that you want to double down on his trickery aspect (no more box stacking, but longer duration / illuminati triangle on ult) and the fact that you don't want Shaco to have Lane Poke (making his E much weaker early game / in the former Shaco VGU project making him turn in the dagger he throws - possibly overriding the function of his current E and turning it into an engage). Are those 2 guesses right? Is there anything else that can be said?

We don't have any particular plans, or a set time, for a Shaco VGU. I'd expect we'd want to keep, or enhance, his identity as a deception and trick heavy assassin though certainly. We've got a pretty sizeable list of champions we're predicting we'll VGU before Shaco though, which was one of the reasons we wanted to try and work on him in the pre-season just gone.

doesnt even need a giant rework, just make his E a skillshot and reward him for consistent backstabs

removing box stacking is dumb too, respect his bush power
