Passive - Juggling Blades: While out of combat, Shaco begins to juggle his knives, up to 3. Shaco's basic attack while juggling will gain bonus range and will always critical strike, dealing mixed damage based on his attack damage and ability power. Each attack consumes one of his Juggling Blades.
Q - Hallucination: Shaco throws a Juggling Blade in a target direction, without consuming a Juggling Blade. The knife explodes into a cloud of gas that lingers for a few seconds at the end of it's path or on the first enemy struck. Enemy champions in the gas begin to hallucinate, causing every champion they see to appear as Shaco, but they can not damage allies.
W - Bag of Tricks - First Cast: Shaco reaches into his sleeve and cycles through Jack in the Box, Blood Red Balloon, and Mimed Walls for 6 seconds. Choosing one by reactivating Bag of Tricks to place a trap at a target location.
-
Jack in the Box - Second Cast: Shaco places a Jack in the Box which lasts for several seconds. After a brief delay the Jack in the Box becomes stealthed. Once active, when an enemy gets close enough the Jack in the Box pops open and fears all near by enemies before launching a few attacks, dealing magic damage to the nearest enemy.
-
Blood Red Balloon - Seconds Cast: Shaco places a Blood Red Balloon which lasts for several seconds. After a brief delay the Blood Red Balloon becomes stealthed. Once active, when an enemy gets close enough the Blood Red Balloon it pops in a fountain of blood, knocking away all enemies and applying a poison to them, which deals magic damage and slows them for a few seconds.
-
Mimed Walls - Second Cast: Shaco stops and channels, as he begins to gesture for a moment. After, the area around Shaco is surrounded by a circle of invisible walls for several seconds. Shaco and his allies can pass through these walls and can see them, but enemies can only pass through them one way. Once an enemy walks through the walls they become somewhat visible and their position is alerted to Shaco and his team, once triggered the walls only last a few seconds.
E - Smoke and Mirrors: Shaco blinks a short distance and stealths for a few seconds, but a visible clone of himself will keep traveling in the direction he was going for a second. If an enemy attacks the clone it will shatter and one of Shaco's Juggling Blades will automatically counter attack them, without consuming a Juggling Blade.
R - Fun House of Horrors: Shaco completely vanishes for a second before reappearing, causing an explosion of his hallucination gas when he reappears. When he reappears, around him is a larger Mimed Walls, but enemies inside have their vision reduced to only inside of the walls, they becomes poisoned by Blood Red Balloon, and at the center is a turret sized Jack in the Box. Also, for the next several seconds Shaco's Smoke and Mirror clone doesn't shatter and can be controlled like a pet. If the turret sized Jack in the Box is destroyed, this ability ends early.
, and that's a tank. Don't get me wrong I love shaco, but that is just begging for him to reach 100% banrate in ranked.
ult +
ulted jack in the box + his current ult(that's better because the dmg from destroying is targeted).... like really? Idk how you have so many upvotes cause you have to be insane to want to play against this.
The dance is ok though
on a charge system.
(This is pretty cool tho)
-like
2- The cycling W is horrible. Shaco is the kind of champ that tricks people with fewer but more effective tools, so variety in his kit just dosen't feel right... Also, the cycling thing is just copy-paste from
3-Too much poison/DoT in this kit. He feels at home when he tricks and puts out burst. The only DoT in his original kit is meant, in his classic AD form, to be annoying, nothing more, nothing less. So anything that just lingers in his kit should be more about utility than damage
4-Come on... using a capacity inspired by another champ is ok, but now 2? That E just screams
, not that I wouldn't like to see that on Shaco, but he deserves more creativity
5- That ult just looks too much technical. Like I already said: less numerous options, more effective and creative ones
