SHACO Needs a Change

Unknown Ghoul·Feb 17, 2018·1 votes·423 views

Can we all take a moment to discuss how shit shaco is atm? Like he is legit the only assassin that doesn't have an engage+escape. He can't use his q to both engage and disengage, every single other assassin has 2 dashes/blinks/teleports (zed w r, ekko e r, lb w r, talon q e, etc). On top of that he is also the only assassin that can only kill 1 person at a time unlike all other assassins that have aoe abilities (r explosion doesnt do dmg as ad and is unreliable for both ad/ap). I think they should give him 1 aoe ability and 1 escape/engage ability, though keeping his core it (q, w, r), so changing his e or adding something to his passive/other abilities. 'Atleast bring back the old Shaco just like 'Ranger' Show less REPLY

but other assasins blinks aren't also an invisible (not camo), which means he can come in from the most obnoxious gank paths, and not even pinks will help.. the only exception to this would be akali, but you can actually see her twilight shroud and react to it.

As a shaco one trick with near 500 k points on shaco i would love it if they stopped touching him, in my opinion with dh he is in a good spot and the escape bit is kinda wrong because if you are good with the champ you are either A. going after a pick (so they are alone), or B. going for the adc in the middle of the fight, not at the start nor the end so when you one hit the carry you can ult to avoid the immediate shock of abilities from the other team and juke your way out. Juking out of a fight with my ult is my favorite thing to do on him, after 1 hitting a sup, mid, or adc ofc.

He's in a good spot, but once the duskblade nerfs go through then I don't know what spot shaco will be in. Most likely in the gutter since we all know he isn't going to recieve a compensation buff.

There is no duskblade nerf coming in it's not even on pbe, either way with dh bruiser shaco will still be very strong

Umm in the last post by Meddler he clearly stated that they will be nerfing duskblade, and do you even hear yourself? "bruiser shaco will be very strong" he's not supposed to be a bruiser, he's supposed to be an assassin.

hes been played as a bruiser for 2 seasons now, shaco isn't just one sub-class, he can be played in 4 roles with a variety of builds and playstyles such as; ap shaco, support shaco, tankco, bruiser shaco, assassin shaco, hybrid shaco. he was designed a assassin but he is anything the player wants him to be
