Potential for Shaco changes in the assassin rework

I'm really hoping that Shaco gets some minor changes with the reworks, but I'm also afraid they'll change him too much. One idea I've had was that it'd be cool if they nerfed the damage on his passive in exchange for a really short fear if he lands a backstab. Anyone have any good ideas/speculation on what could potentially happen?

Fear on backstab would likely be too strong. Passive could straight up cancel so many ultimates, with no real cost. It would also basically give another free backstab by using Ravenous's attack reset.

I could see them adjusting ratios. As it stands, he has two 100% AP ratios, one 100% AD ratio, and the modified crit damage ratio. His Boxes have a very insignificant AP ratio on them.

If they do anything, I feel they'll push him away from AP ratios and balance around the AD part. Of course, that all depends on how Stealth works after the update too.
