Shaco's ult is bad?

Shaco's ult all ways had that flaw where if you had blue buff, red buff, or baron buff, it would be easy for the enemy to see who is the real Shaco. But now it is just dumb. If you click on one of them and not see a dragon buff that means it is the clone, if you do that means it is the real one, so if you are a good jungler and get a drake at the 7 minute with shaco, the whole game they will be able to know witch is the real shaco and with one is not. I mean please make so that shaco's clone can have the dragon buff cuz it is just dumb otherwise. Everyone who just takes a minute to look at one of the 2 shacos will know witch one is real. I mean shaco's ult can now only be used when fighting 1v1+clone, but can't be used for that good escape. clone RIP

List of enemy's that counter his ult : {{champion:96} Aka all champions that have a stack dmg dealer by witch i mean vayne w, Vi w, Gnar w, Darius passive, Twitch passive, all champs that have a poison!

Garen's ult's passive also has the added benefit of revealing the real shaco from the clone. Using his ult is only extra damage and lost all the nuance with the red, blue, baron, dragon, and enemy passives such as garens ult, vaynes w, darius's passive and many more only staying on the true copy. There are no more tricks to play and that is the characters whole theme and strength. Their most be a way to fix this.

P.S. LeBlanc's passive has these same problems as well.

Yeah in the time it takes to click two shaco's in the middle of a fight they should be dead. Unless shack is weak AF they would waste their time with that.

Better to just target one and try to kill it. Silly thing to complain about IMO.

I'm not sure if anyone realized this but there is currently a bug with Shaco's ult. He is supposed to act like Zed where he is removed from play as the clone spawns. But lately I have been trying to drop things like Caitlyn ult by doing it right before it hits and it does miss then after I pop out either me or the clone randomly eats the damage. This has only been working for on targets it seems as I can still dodge LB's full rotation minus Q.

In all honesty, Shaco needs a rework in general. Dated kit, can be very hard to punish for mistakes, jack-in-the-boxes lack good counterplay, and AP Shaco is a mess.

ehhhh i mean he should get the buff, but not to make it easier to tell which shaco is which. It's already very easy. The clone will always have significantly lower AD. So if you select one and the AD is really low, it's that one. If it looks about where it should be for the items, it's the other

I do believe the solution to your problem is Illuminati tricksyness bro. XD Honestly the fact that it is so easy is what makes it so funny when people die to it! Just gotta troll... err... believe! People will fall for anything... >:3
