do any other shaco players actually dislike this change??

I for one actually can't stand that they did this. I don't like the fact that i pretty much waste everything i have if the targets at a lower than full hp.

If they're full? Well it's not like hitting E or gunblade to proc ludens was hard to begin with

why do i hate this change? well, the above reason

and it makes farming minions retarded. i dont wanna use my damn runic echos to try to clear a wave unless i intentionally do it. Oh you wanna backstab the minion so you can actually last hit it with your pitiful ad? Na bro, waste that runic proc

Workshop shaco, shac norris, other shaco mains i know im forgetting, thoughts?

i mean revolver+q+backstab proc TLD instantly is cool and all, but unneeded (imo) and just gives rito more of a reason to nerf

I personally have the shaco rework

it makes saving your burst hard unless you decide not to last hit minions, i'm pretty sure this change only affects lane shaco in a bad way though, that aside even late game grouped up you have to remember don't auto save for combo.

personally doesn't bother me but i think riot where drunk AF when they reworked shaco anyway and ap poke shaco worked fine b4 the rework they basically just made shaco have enough ap scaling on stuff to have it be viable compared to the 140mana Q E harass old shaco would spam, but tbh i don't think ap shaco needed any buffs then the rework and riot realized they dogone goofed when they buffed the most frusterating type of shaco playstyle then they promptly panic nerf it and forget about him for another year

tldr look at Shaco's patch history every every single time riot touches him they nerf him and forget about him and shaco mains are left to try to make it work, except shaco's never had numbers this low
