I'm just curious as to why riotFearless and the rest of the riot team have a vendetta out against shaco. "Oh no he goes invisible." There's a pretty strong counter to this. Wards, wards, wards. Get vision. If you have vision you can easily play against a shaco and not get ganked every 10 seconds. Anyways onto my point.

Shaco was changed during the assassin update lowering the damage on his q and his e but gave him boxes on his clones death They nerfed his ad scalings in another patch forcing us to play ad, then proceed to nerf his ap scalings They then removed (in this most recent patch) all of the damage off of his q but adding small ap scaling to his passive back stab

Before any of this you could play him ad or ap with ad being the more prominent choice. Then after the update they wanted us to play hybrid. As patches came out they wanted us to play full ap, then ad again with the lethality update, then now back to hybrid. Theyre waffling back and forth on this champion and its just ruining him. Shaco is kind of like zed in the sense that he has a low skill floor, anyone can play him but has a high skill ceiling so its hard to actually be effective with him without constantly leaving your team in a 4 v 4. Maybe everyone should just be Kha'zix and Rengar mains since theyre the most broken junglers right now and riot isnt even looking at them. Maybe we should just become Udyr mains like riotFearless

At level 6 with the base ad that he has plus the 17 in my runes totaling to 84 with a single backstab, and additional auto attack, and the e plus thunderlords with a jack in the box placed ( with 7 ap) for all the damage it can do the total damage done to a target dummy is 373 damage

Honestly, not talking specifically about shaco or any other champ, Invisibility is a VERY strong abillity in solo-q.

I don't like how they COMPLETELY REMOVED the bonus damage, could have just halved it lol. But yea statistically if a champ isn't making bank they'll nerf them from play :P cough Ahri Zed Lee Sin and the ADC's
