Can we just kill AP Shaco already
I really hate the AP shaco play style, not that its OP or broken its just stupidly annoying. There's no interaction to it if he chooses to go support. The boxes hit like a truck if you even take 1-2 hits from them and if you do manage to catch the bitch out finally his ult does ap damage on death and spawns more boxes to do even more damage. I know its as simple as just not chasing him or letting him set up nests, but really his boxes shouldn't do a shit ton of damage if you step on them and only get hit once or twice. That's not even mentioning the fact that sometimes the boxes have really weird AI and will just ignore minions and hit you anyways when you are nowhere near the box.
I have had games where I completely shut him out because I know exactly the goal of AP Shaco but my team just keeps letting themselves get baited by him after I emphasize the importance of avoiding him and letting him over extend himself but not letting him lure you, but it doesn't matter in mid elo because these people think they can carry the game and just run after him whenever he goes below half hp. I don't mind AP shaco doing damage, but I think the boxes should have lower damage on the initial proc and wind up over time.
I personally think that Shaco should have the AP play style act so much less cheese oriented. Instead of having the boxes do a shit ton of damage upfront and taking forever to despawn I think they should do less damage initially grant a larger fear with AP thresholds and also arm faster with AP but lose some scaling HP as 400 hp is stupid in the mid game. AD should get higher defenses on the box to make up for the loss in hp. Perhaps give them hp per AD and increase their time on the map with AD as well. AD Shaco is much easier to deal with than AP because at least you can chase the damn bastard when hes low and not die to his boxes.
