Shaco Nerfs To Harshe at all Points of Gameplay (With Math Proof)
Here is some information on Shaco's passive and Q to show how much of a nerf the new deceive and passive is. The rest of his skills except his ult (changes to his ult are cool but almost useless) and some bonus health to his boxes were also nerfed but the nerfs were obvious.
Shaco struggles very hard late game and Riot nerfed his late game. Shaco is very strong early game and they massively nerfed his early game. Shaco depended on his early game to get fed early game so he could be useful late game. Now Shaco can't get fed as easily early game so its a double nerf to his late game.
These changes are going to make shaco become a useless champion right now he is only used by a select few hard core fans. Now he won't be used by anyone. He will become like Eve who even the rework creator admits the Eve rework was a mistake on how it was done. This will be the same.

Passive New: 120-145 Mini Crit (Normal Crit is 200%) from behind once every 3 seconds. Scales with CDR.

(runes or items not included for any of this)
Old Decieve use to do 79.24 damage at level 1 + 14.448 damage on a backstab so 93.688 total.
New Decieve does 77.6 damage at level 1 + 15.848 once every 3 seconds on a backstab so 95.088 total.
At level 1 Shaco will attack 3 times in 3 seconds and 5 times in 6 seconds.
(with all backstabs) Old damage at 3 seconds: 281.064 New Damage at 3 seconds: 267.776
Old Damage at 6 seconds: 468.44 New Damage at 6 seconds: 422.967
Now lets look at level 18
Old Decieve used to do 257.4 damage + 51.48 damage on a backstab so 308.88 total.
New Decieve does 197 damage + 78.8 once every 3 seconds on a backstab so 275.8 total.
So his Damage is getting nerfed at all levels with his passive and Q change.
