I really wanna be a Shaco 1-trick. But I just can't win with him. I can get strong. I can 1-shot people. I can get double kills. I can splitpush. I can take dragons. I can get really nice ganks off. I do everything that Shaco does best, and it really gives the enemy team a hard time.

But I just. Can't. Fucking. Win. At. ALL. WHY NOT? WHY CAN'T I JUST WIN A LITTLE BIT?? SERIOUSLY, I HAVE 14 SHACO GAMES, AND I ONLY WON FUCKING ONE OF THEM. WHY IN 14 GAMES I CAN'T WIN MORE THAN ONE FUCKING TIME? CLEARLY SOME OF THOSE GAMES WERE CLOSE, AND I WAS REALLY STRONG AND HAD PRESSURE, BUT I JUST. CAN'T. FUCKING. WIN. WHY NOT?? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP, I AM FUCKING DESPERATE.

Sounds to me like the issue is that you and your team simply cant close out games.

When you succeed in a teamfight, what do you do? Do you take their base? Do you take an objective?

The biggest problem I see (I'm Silver 1, btw) is that when my team wins the fight, the jungler immediately starts pinging an objective. While this doesn't sound like a bad idea, keep in mind that I mean this every time. If we won this while our wave was somewhat pushed in, or if we killed 3/5 (including their jng) and we know they're not gonna steal it, sure.

But if we're literally sitting on their inhib turret and ace them, and they spam ping baron and take half the team away from a free tower and inhib, I want to come through that monitor and slap them sometimes. ESPECIALLY when they feed the buff away in the next fight.

That's the thing though. It's like even when we kill a bunch of them, we don't have enough time to press an objective cuz the remaining members of their team are just able to defend long enough for them to respawn, and then there's just no way to break through sometimes. Then when I do manage to wreck through their towers/inhibs, it's just fucking not enough to win because the fed guy on their team is still able to 1v5 manpower us, then they take Baron. I don't get it, how can people be this good in Bronze? I had a game where we literally had top and bottom inhibs, and 3 people with over 10 kills, and we just keep getting oppressed by 1 fed guy. I don't get what more I need to do if doing all of the things just isn't enough...

I need some kind of tip that's going to counter 1 guy killing my whole team, and a tip that's going to make taking towers/inhibs/drags worth more... I swear, sometimes I feel like sneaking an inhibitor does absolutely nothing half the time....
