people keep telling me i am bad cause i play Shaco and other easy champions... they keep reporting me after i "ks" and have great score after being the best on the team.

i would love it if some one could tell me if SShaco is as easy as people complain.

i go shaco what ever lane i want like top, supp, adc, where ever i want and they say i am doing some thing wrong so they go report me and complain the game

Shaco isn't necessarily difficult mechanically, but he has one of the highest skill caps in the game just because of the mind games you can play with him.

Shaco does not have a high skill cap. People just confuse game knowledge with champion mechanics.

You got out-damaged by their feeding Veigar, and only did more damage than the feeding Teemo on your team...

Shaco is very simple mechanically, other than timing his ultimate properly. He is one of the few champions left in League of Legends that is almost entirely driven by the ability to make good decisions and plan ahead, and it's what makes him so unique. It's also what makes him difficult, because very few champions share the level of requisite pre-planning in order to not be a detriment to your team.

TLDR, high skill floor and moderate-high skill ceiling. He's difficult to pick up and do well with but has a solid amount of growth potential.

Shaco is my most played champion this season and my favorite champion since I first tried him about 3 years or so back. mechanically he is pretty straight forward, however he requires a lot more thought than other champions. He isn't zed so he can't pop in kill the adc then be 3 screens away, he isn't a tank or initiator. He is in an odd spot and I love it, he is more rewarding to play than any other champion, to me at least. Before you do anything, you need a plan, a backup plan, and another plan. Most of his skill cap comes from game knowledge and decision making but meh you get used to it after a few dozen games. Shaco 4 ever

I know this is a really really late reply but I had not played league in a bit, and he is in a really really odd spot witch makes him amazingly fun to play not many people know what to do before a mouth or so vsing him. Shaco
