"...His early game ganks need to be toned down. Shaco players should feel good about tricking their opponents, rather than merely appearing out of nowhere at level 3 and ruining their lane."
"Shaco's clone now drops three Jack in the Boxes and causes enemies to flee when it dies"

Crits from Shaco are a lot less potent; in order to get the guaranteed crit, you MUST attack from behind. Before, as long as you use Q, you'll get the guaranteed crit + shiv crit + IE damage multiplier even when attacking from the front. Makes it much harder to burst.
Backstab passive no longer works with E. Prior to changes, E dealt more damage when landing from behind, courtesy of his passive. Not anymore.
His E base damage got reduced by half and is now an execute. The thing is, as Shaco your job is to hunt for squishies which don't have lots of hp to scale with your E. The old way of Q into E into hydra etc. won't work as well now because E base damage got lowered and the missing hp won't help that much due to squishies not having hp in the first place.
His boxes can no longer stack. This tremendously damages his clear in the jungle as two boxes at Krugs and two boxes at Red stacked up no longer works. The new jungle also kills him with all the mini Krugs spawning to ruin the set up.
The ult changes now with the clone dropping 3 boxes are nice, but they're not amazing. Not nearly enough to make up for the losses. In a teamfight with all the AoEs thrown around, these mini boxes with rapidly decaying hp won't even last 2 seconds.
The BIGGEST mistake is making his Q scale. Now it's down to 1.5 second and now scales. 1.5 second is not enough for jungle Shaco to reposition or invade or anything. 1.5 second, rendering the ability almost useless. They didn't even get rid of the poof of orange smoke you can see even in the fog of war with this change.
Jungle Shaco is now forced to upgrade Q for the extra invisibility at the cost of having less damage and burst from maxing E.
His E no longer slows monsters' attack speed in the jungle, further killing his jungle clear.
Boxes now have scaling hp, this further hurt Shaco's jungle clear due to having less hp at the start. Jungle monsters can kill them easier.
Shaco got rektd
