How many chances are for Demon Shaco to become a skin in game ?

First lets have a look at it again :

Its a fantastic design and fits his personality and reputation, now with his new run animation and maybe new homeguard animation ( demon running on unicycle ) that would be awesome .

Wildcard Shaco was his last skin 750rp and has nothing special . He doesnt have a Legendary or even epic skin ( Demon Shaco is Legendary quality imo ) . Its been almost 4 years ,he needs a good skin .

Ok lets take it this way :

Dragon trainer Heimerdinger: made and was requested by league players .

Dragon Master Swain is a skin that was talked about long ago and surprise? It was made.

Riot made Resistance Illaoi bcs we choose that skin . ^ ^ ^ Im actually thinking that Demon Shaco is possible to create bcs of this .

Every champion is getting a new skin , Riot recently asked for ideas for a Shaco skin , why not make a Legendary skin for him named Demon Shaco and looking similar like this one ? It feels right sometimes to get something good in a while ..

Many other mains ( Garen,Darius for example and the list goes on) have amazing skins and bundles with icons , borders and all the good stuff but Shaco mains got nothing .

For some years this skin concept is posted on the bords and Reddit and from what i see its getting a lot of love .

I know a Rioter will see this post , im just asking you dear Riot friend to think about it . I really think its a amazing skin concept for him .

Im almost positive that many Rioters know about this skin concept , make it happen please :) i know it can be made .

I really do hope he gets something in 2019. Since riot did ask about what people wanted in a skin for him, it does seem they are hopefully working on something.

This has always been a pretty decent concept as well. Im sure theyd make it great if they did it.

Isn't he already a demon?

He is the,"Demon Jester", but that doesn't mean he's literally a demon. Same way you would call a cruel and terrible person a demon, it's a name that resulted from his cruelty and demonic like actions. In his lore it says it's possible for him to be a demon, but it's not truly known, so he could always be something else. A human corrupted by the void, maybe a darkin, possibly some other form of fiend native to Runeterra.

Hi Its Khamet1 votes

You're a bit behind with his lore aren't you... check it again ^^

I just read it to confirm what I said. Universe Panel > All Champions > Shaco > Read Biography. Where else am I supposed to read it?

Here's a copy and paste for you.

Most would say that death isn't funny. It isn't, unless you're Shaco - then it's hysterical. He is Valoran's first fully functioning homicidal comic; he jests until someone dies, and then he laughs. The figure that has come to be known as the Demon Jester is an enigma. No one fully agrees from whence he came, and Shaco never offers any details on his own. A popular belief is that Shaco is not of Runeterra - that he is a thing from a dark and twisted world. Still others believe that he is the demonic manifestation of humanity's dark urges and therefore cannot be reasoned with. The most plausible belief is that Shaco is an assassin for hire, left to his own lunatic devices until his services are needed. Shaco certainly has proven himself to be a cunning individual, evading authorities at every turn who might seek him for questioning for some horrendous, law-breaking atrocity. While such scuttlebutt might reassure the native inhabitants of Valoran, it seems unimaginable that such a malevolent figure is allowed to remain at large.

Whatever the truth of his history might be, Shaco is a terrifying, elusive figure most often seen where madness can openly reign.

Read the bold, it explicitly says that nobody knows. Everything is an assumption, while some more plausible than others, he could be anything.

Skins most of the time are the 100% accurate representations of the champ. I mean, illaoi isn't connected to the void at all but has a void skin

It was assumed before the lore change that he was either a demon or some unknown evil force.

With the change he is literally a possessed marionette puppet thing that was a toy of the prince of the then "blessed isles" and after the harrowing came and corrupted the isle, turning it into the now "shadow isles", the prince was killed during the corruption. This caused shaco to go mad and he now gains great pleasure from causing others pain.

YES! This is perfect! And perfect timing too, and with April coming around the corner - who else would be more perfect to hold the demon crown with Teemo!

I don't think Shaco is going to get anything until he gets his gameplay update. With his current kit/etc, I don't think Riot wants to encourage people to play him.

Meddler confirmed that Shaco won't receive a VGU anytime soon, and rioters that are in the lead of skins were up for a Shaco skin.

proof https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/WJOETQ8X-quick-gameplay-thoughts-november-14 "We're targeting champs who either aren't in need of a full VGU or aren't likely to get one in the immediate future."

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens. I think you're getting your hopes up over nothing...

Because Shaco right now is, as we see from the comment below, a champion that NOBODY BUT SHACO MAINS likes to see. The only reason people DON'T ban him "just because they hate seeing him" is because so few people play him. If he ever became popular, you'd see him on the permaban list, regardless of his winrate.

And I feel like that's a bigger driving force behind skin cadence than you're giving credit for.

thats false, for example league of graph has Shaco as 26th most mained out of 142 champions, and 4th most one tricked. on U.GG Shaco has a pick rate of 4-5%, in comparision to Aurelion Sol or other champions it's huge.

Shaco community is huge, people underrate it, hell i often meet other Shaco one tricks or mains in ranks at high diamond which is a small % of people.

im fairly certain that Shaco isn't a banned champion out of frustration because there are more frustrating champions atm, especially the current meta champs.

Eleshakai1 votes

I think I've only seen shaco in ranked once this season. Total. I've seen people dodge several times upon the jungler trying to pick shaco, followed by shaco bans 'mysteriously' in the next game. I think you're underestimating how much EVERYONE WHO ISN'T A SHACO MAIN hates having him in the game lol

Eleshakai1 votes

You're taking that out of context. He's not in need of a full VGU, because his base visual isn't entirely awful. It's just his KIT that's problematic, so he'd probably just get a GU with a minor visual component.

Cðulrophobia2 votes

Thats false, learn to read and stop taking things out of context yourself. He said that "We're targeting champs who either aren't in need of a full VGU or aren't likely to get one in the immediate future." So my point still stands, and the other Rioter did tweet that they are thinking about a Shaco skin. They updated his movement animation too, so he won't receive even a Ezreal-kind of VGU. If you claim that he doesn't need a VGU and he should receive GU instead you're partially blind.

Eleshakai1 votes

The thing specifically says 'full VGU' though. So I don't know how you can take ANYTHING out of it other than 'he won't get a full VGU'.

That all being said, get your hopes up if you wish. I'm just trying to keep your expectations realistic. I strongly suspect he's not getting anything until his kit gets fixed.

And even if he does, a rise in pick rate will simply mean he gets permanently banned because literally nobody except people who play him want him in the game.

Hi Its Khamet1 votes

Yes and since he's not going to get a full VGU then you could say he's not likely to get one in the immediate future, or isn't in need of one. This means the skin team is targetting him for a skin...

Eleshakai1 votes

There are three types of updates. VU, GU, and VGU.

They said 'he's not getting a full VGU' meaning they're not planning to change his visuals. Doesn't mean they're not planning to change his GAMEPLAY. Especially since they've said before that they don't consider him to be in a healthy state from a gameplay perspective... actually several times. As you may have noticed, champs they aren't particularly happy being meta don't get many skins.

But again, get your hopes up if you wish. Good luck.

I'd rather have a birthday shaco. I would easily pay 20$ for that skin if riot can pull it off.

Dreamer5291 votes

Also worth noting that skins like Surprise Party Fiddlesticks, Void Fizz, and AstroNautilus (off the top of my head) started as fan-made skins. If Demon Shaco keeps getting posted, it could happen too :)

Hi Its Khamet1 votes

Yeah this is awesome! I would defo spend money that I probably shouldn't on this!!
