Shaco's E needs a revert and Shaco's boxes shouldnt be completely unusable after a red ward / trinke

physical damage e is annoying as hell for anyone who plays AP Shaco.

also it makes a quarter of Shacos kit irrelevant if someones just trinkets your brush when ur either jungling or in lane when they can just pop it to remove all of ur lane boxes.

Being a Shaco main in 2019 sucks.

EDIT: this isnt a viability discussion this is me wishing that Shaco had an AP playstyle.

Don't know about you, but I don't think Shaco needs any sort of buffs:

And judging from your almost 80% wr on him, I think yea, he doesn't need a buff.

Then again, "ad assassin main claiming his champ is weak"

Shows the damn clown as S tier for high elo and he's still A tier for lower elo.

Maybe after Riot nerfs upfront damage along Ignite, then he might need a small buff, but for now, I need that nerf hammer, where's Poppy?

I wasnt stating my champion was weak. I would be down for some compensation nerfs to be able to play AP Shaco like many of the Shaco mains would prefer to play

Well, your title said you don't want wards and Oracle to disable boxes, and that's a huge buff to him, which no-one but Shaco mains want, and it's kinda already a fact that for the majority of Shaco mains, unless his winrate is above 60%, he's weak.

Dang it's as if other traps in league arent coded to go back into their unseen position after you decide to not clear them or walk away from. Shaco's Boxes are coded as pets but used as traps, which is different than other traps in league, so maybe all im asking for is some consistency with the other traps in league I.E Teemo shrooms or Jhin W.
