Carry Shaco

strategy,positioning and mechanics gets you out of silver, not any one champ. there's diamond 1 urgot mains.

He cant keep up with a lot of the hyper mobile assassins. He's good at early game counter jungling and split pushing. Can't really carry

As a 20 kills assassin? Not really, he falls off super hard around the 20 minute mark.

You can carry by split pushing and taking objectives though. Thats really all Shaco is good for late game.

Pretty much no. He's great pre-6, but once he reaches 11+ he falls flat on his face like a rock.

If he builds durability he hits like a wet noodle. If he builds damage he's as durable as wet tissue paper. If he has no money at all then he might as well sit in base.

He can carry in silver, just gank a lot and get your team snowballing. He is a little weak mid game, but can three shot people late game. I've gotten out of silver with him before, you just have to know how to play him.

Shaco doesnt have the best burst. His clear outside of first buff isnt the best. His escapes/gapclosers arent the best. His dueling potential isnt the best.

However, to me, he is the funnest champ. He plays more mindgames than Teemo when youre trying to recall with less than 200 hp. He is the last thing people want to see when cutting it close on that 2nd buff clear.

Awesome champ once you understand his playstyle, and so many fun plays can be made as you juke them back and forth.

PS check out "shaclone" he is an awesome shaco player and he played shaco into master/challenger. https://www.youtube.com/user/Shaclone/videos
