Shaco possible ability rework idea

I think that the main reason that Shaco isnt played is not that he isnt good, because he definitely is, but that he isnt fun. Placing a little box that lets an ADC lifesteal more life then the box will actually take is not rewarding, and neither is a point and click little blade that does minuscule amounts of damage. His ult? Great for jukes, just like his deceive, but if you are in the situation where you need to juke it means that something went wrong. If his kit was different, maybe we would see more play of Shaco which i personally would love. I say make him more of a "Trickster" rather than a "Throw a blade and run awayer" New Passive: Trickster: Shaco moves faster when moving towards an enemy champion, and upon killing an enemy Shaco goes invisible for 2 seconds. New Q: Poison strike: An auto attack reset, Shaco thrusts both of his blades into an enemy, poisoning them for (insert damage) and applying grievous wounds. New W: Jack in the Box: Shaco stores up to 3 charges of Jack in the Boxes, which can be placed down and trigger upon enemys approaching. On enemy approach, the enemy is feared and the Jack in the box starts throwing knives at the target. Has higher health that the current boxes, and lasts until destroyed. Fear can only happen one time. (similar to his current boxes, but they are essential to his kit but needed a rework.) New E: Disappearing Act: A green smokescreen emits around Shaco, limiting vision of all caught in it. (Similar to Nocturne Ult or Graves smokescsreen) Upon activation, an evil laugh is heard and Shaco goes invisible for (insert seconds) New R or Ult: The Jokes on you!: Shaco teleports behind a target, silencing and poisoning the target. Shaco then makes 2 clones of himself, that mirror all of Shaco's actions (except casting abilities) such as walking and auto attacking. (This part is hard to explain in words but ill try) When Shaco ults the target, the 2 clones appear behind the target in a half circle formation surrounding it. Shaco has a random chance to teleport to one of the 3 positions when he ults. (So that every time Shaco ults someone, they dont know which clone is the real Shaco.) The clones will stay alive until the target of the ultimate is killed or shaco or the clones are killed. Link to an image for clarity of the ultimate The top half circle would be where Shaco and his clones will be, the inner dot is the target.

new W would make AP jungle shako kinda op.. place 3 boxes at wolves-> spawn kill them for the rest of the game->profit. not that i wouldn't love it, only problem is that Q's probably not AP anymore if it's an AA reset.
