Riot, what is your plan with Shaco?

You've pushed Shaco towards a bruiser playstyle, and made his assasin playstyle almost unplayable, which is only viable with a decent amount of kills/a lead. So I'm wondering, what is your plan with him? The nerf to his Q (literally removing damage from it) was done a few patches ago in an attempt to knock down bruiser shaco ( his problematic playstyle ) and keep him like the assasin hes meant to be. But with your amazing brainpower you managed to destroy assasin and gave a slap on the wrist to bruiser, with the bruiser build on shaco being among top 5 junglers at the moment, and still very strong at all elos, although it does not require alot of skill and is probably more cancerous than the assassin style, the bruiser shaco build can completely remove a carry from a fight while still being healthy enough to stay in it itself, while the assasin one was a full risk full reward playstyle, kill to be killed.

All that the shaco mains want is to do something about bruiser and instead turn him into his true playstyle, a demon jester who can make your life hell. When you tried to fix the problem of tank fizz top you reduced his base damage and increased his scalings, which is EXACTLY what we have been suggesting, but it seems like we are talking to a brick wall. All we want is our beloved clown back to where he was before. I know Shaco is one of the more hated champions in the game ( near teemo and yasuo I believe ) but that doesnt mean that those people who thoroughly enjoy the playstyle of shaco have to be left desiring more and are not having nearly as much fun as we have been having in previous seasons and even after the assasin rework, we we're still enjoying him. All we ask is to restore shaco and make him great again. At the very least please give a response on what you want to do with Shaco in the near future or if you have any plans for him, because his current state is not at all healthy for the game. The shacomains subreddit will always have suggestions or ideas on how to make the demon jester actually scary again. #MakeShacoGreatAgain

Riot want to make him forgotten about.

There is literally no other champ in the game who has received the same buff:nerf ratio as him.
