Shaco is a gimmicky piece of garbage that needs a Warwick-level Rework.

There is nothing satisfying about him. There is nothing clever about him. There is no late-game fantasy.

He just has gimmicks. His E permaslow is a gimmick. His Stealth Blink is a gimmick. His Traps are a gimmick.

The thing about gimmicks, though, is that they work once, or not at all, or maybe a few times. Then they fall off.

It's not healthy design. It's not clever design.

Riot, pick ONE gimmick that you feel represents his playstyle. Modernize it. Then fill out the rest of his abilities with something reminiscent of current Shaco.

The largest problem in shaco's kit is it hardly has a sliver of comedy. He is a Jester.

If he performes well he should be loved by his allies, and feared by his enemies. He needs to have entertainment value in his tricks.

You have to eat sand IRL if you fall for his traps repeatedly.

hes supposed to be gimmicky hes the joker...but with high skill players they can abuse the disadvantage his kit has and riots only fixes stuff like that by nerfing raw stats.

He's meant to be somewhat of a trickster. He's meant to be a pain in the ass to chase down after he opportunistically chunks/kills one of your primary carries.
