Shaco Nerfs

Currently on the PBE Shaco's bonus damage from his Q (Deceive) has been reduced from 70% down to 30%. This is ridiculous.

While I do agree that he needs to be dealt with, as his winrate is insane accompanied by his higher playrate, this is too much. Furthermore, it's silly that Riot chooses to nerf champions like Shaco who have been good (for the first time in a while) for one patch, whereas champions like Warwick have been consistently good over a number of patches yet have obtained no attention from Riot.

He was originally buffed because the item he is most reliant on for an early powerspike, duskblade, was nerfed. These proposed nerfs will bring him down to a state not that much better then if there were to be no buffs in the first place.

Additionally, when Riot was looking for a way to provide Shaco with compensation for the duskblade nerfs, they came to reddit.com/r/shacomains, finally asking the opinion of the people that know Shaco the best. However, upon suggesting these nerfs, they have completely ignored the cries from that community.

As has been suggested multiple times on r/shacomains:

DECEIVE BONUS DAMAGE: 0.7 bonus attack damage ⇒ 0.5 bonus attack damage

This nerf will help to provide some counterplay and will prevent him from one-shotting everyone whilst still giving players the ability to be impactful throughout the game.

TL;DR Proposed Shaco nerfs are ludicrous. The bonus attack damage on his Q should be reduced to 50% rather than 30%.
