Shaco is possibly the most uninteractive champion in this game

What happens when you play against Shaco? He pops out of stealth and then tosses his shiv at you, which can't be avoided (possibly placing a trap near you before popping out). After this he runs and hides behind his traps or his clone, preventing any retaliation whatsoever. By the time you actually get close enough to attack him, his stealth is usually back up and this process repeats itself. Such a fun, interactive champ to play against...

Haha haha

Heimerdinger and illaoi are definitely annoying, due to the constant harass from their tentacles and turrets, but at least I can see them at all times. Also, if you prevent Heimer from getting his turrets set up you can easily shut him down in lane.

Pretty much every tank and adc are for more uninteractive than he is same with most enchanters. Nah i'm not defending him he is toxic and his kit is also anti fun for everyone playing against him but facts.

What happens when you play against Shaco?

Champs you should try:

JUNGLE: KAYN WARWICK EVELYN GRAVES

TOP: DARIUS ILLAOI YORRICK TEEMO

MID: AHRI KATARINA ZOE AKALI MALZAHAR

SUPPORT: LEONA MORGANA LUX

ADC: VAYNE TWITCH LUCIAN

all of these above champs give shaco a hard time. Im also sure i missed some. Any form of cc, dash or spell shield will essentially nullify shacos opener. If he doesnt destroy you with his opener he has to run away or ult.

He is good in bronze and silver because players tilt so fast its like a free win.

Shaco has absolutely no all-in potential in lane. He also can't actually chase you down or fight you on even ground - he relies completely on his spells. This means any champion with longer range than him (ANY champion that is not melee) and has low cooldowns can easily poke and zone him out.

What is the main COUNTERPLAY to this guy? He has no waveclear. None. At all. If you have sustain or can build a magic resist item, do that - then just ignore him and push the minion wave.

Shaco top relies on putting boxes together and luring you into them. So just ignore the heck out of him, push his minion wave and let him waste his time trying to bait you into his traps.

Shaco has no sustain outside corrupting potion, so if you have some sort of poke spell (preferrably a skill shot, but AOE spells also work as they can hit and reveal him while he is stealthed) he will eventually be forced out of lane. Heck, even freaking Nasus is great against him and he's supposed to be weak against lane bullies.
