These new shaco changes look dangerously OP

Now don't get me wrong. I like Shaco, I enjoy him a fair amount and agree that his clear needs some boosting. But holy fucking shit just look at this

He managed to clear all of red side and hit 3 before most of the laners even got level 1. THAT'S INSANE. Now you can make the argument that this in fact ChaseShaco who is one of the best Shaco mains on the planet and he knows his shit. But this isn't hard, he placed boxes at camps and they 1v1'd them. How do you feel on this?

it's better for sure but it's far off from being "op"

"before most of the laners even got level 1" - I am calling bull shit on this part... = P

He did get a ridiculously good leash in that clip, however, I think he should be limited to fewer boxes at early ranks, with potential box quantity sharply increasing with each skill point. That will fix some of that early clearing cheese. If that isn't nerfed, then the rest of his kit might be nerfed until that's his one gimmick, and that doesn't sound fun. As an AP Shaco fan, I like the box playstyle, but it does need tradeoffs. Shaco should need to max skill points in boxes and build CDR + AP in order to get really good boxes. I am worried that AD Shaco players with too fast of jungle clears will out-level opponents and one-shot them, resulting in Shaco nerfs across the board and destroying AP Shaco viability again.

Look at the very end of the clip just above the minimap. And the only member of his team whose above lvl 1 is fiddlesticks. Not bullshit.

So instead of accepting the small poke at your typo, you are actually going to insist that you were correct when you said that he got level 3 before most laners got level 1? Even though players start the game at level 1? He was level 3 before the game loaded? I was kidding with you, but now you just seem like the kind of ass who will never accept being incorrect about anything.
