whan i say shaco is a toxic champ
i am not talking about him being OP.. (he isn't imo, but with 52+ winrate in every elo that's certainly debatable ) Edit: ok its 49-50%, i didn't check again this most recent patch before posting.. my bad, sorry...
so he DEFINITELY isnt OP...
he is TOXIC because its is COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE to have a game with a shaco in it without at least one player out of the said ten getting extremely pissed off due to said shaco.
entire kit is about trolling your opponents.. pissing them off.. baiting them into traps. and in generally making their life a living hell for the duration of that game.
now... i personally play this game to have FUN.
even if shaco is fun to play... a champion should NOT be specifically designed to PISS OFF your opponents.
we play to have fun!!! i buy skins because i ENJOY playing this game.
i have NEVER once had a SINGLE game... where i had a good time with a
REGARDLESS of who's team he was on.
his design in fundamentally flawed as it exists to make OTHER players NOT have fun.
THAT is why he is "toxic" and no amount of "number tweaks", buffs, or nerfs is going to fix that. nor did the small scale rework he got.
he will NEVER be fun to have in a game for player other than the one playing him unless is DESIGN is changed so it isn't toxic.
it isn't just shaco
has the a very similar issue.. except it isn't his DESIGN that is toxic.. it was riot's implementation of it.
he actually has amazing lore and could be a fantastic champ if reworked properly
but i cant see how shaco can exist in a non toxic way when it an intrinsic part of his design to be "toxic" that is not right
