Thoughts on What Shaco Is
YES I KNOW THE LORE IS OUT DATED BUT DO TO THE LACK OF INFO ON THIS CHAMPION WE ARE GOING WITH IT
Okay, so I've been thinking about this for a while now, and after re-reading his lore a couple of times I have a theory about what Shaco truly is...
Regardless of whether you like it or not, I just wanted to share it and see what people think... Still sticking with my theory until the lore update.
Anyway, here is what we know about Shaco for sure:
-
A psychotic and sadistic killer who is beyond slippery
-
Takes pleasure in in death and violence in general
-
HE prefers to keep as little about him available for common knowledge
-
FRIENDS: Nocturne and Fiddlesticks (could change with lore update)
3 Main Theories that the Lore has provided is
1: He literally is a demon spawned from some dark hole of hell who.
2: A manifestation of humanities dark urges.
3: A really mentally screwed up assassin who only goes serious when a job is at hand.
After reviewing all of this... I have a simple idea of what Shaco may actually be...
The mask... Just the mask
Before downvoting me to hell, let me explain
1: This ties all 3 together, the mask was spawned from a twisted place, summoned here due to the dark urges of humanity, later to be picked up by an individual only to corrupt said person into lunacy and a want for death
2: He is extremely slippery, harder to catch than jinx if I were to guess, that's because you can't catch a mask. Even if someone was caught and that mask was taken away... Well Demon Mask... So who knows what it would do
Probably hard to destroy and probably has some abilities without a host
Similar to Venom from spiderman if you'd like to think it that way.
3: His Friends, Harder to tell with Nocturne, but take a look at Fiddlesticks... Yes his lore is outdated but we're rolling with it
Fiddlesticks lore states if you go into the chamber, he kills you, yet is somehow friends with Shaco and Nocturne (assumed through Shaco)
Now if Shaco walked in, Fiddlesticks would have killed him, even if Shaco dip dived and dodged, he's in a very bad spot, so Shaco's host probably would have lost this duel, but the mask still remains... And probably able to communicate with Fiddle...
As for Nocturne, the friendship with him supports all the demon theories regardless as Nocturne would never deal with a human
Alright, that's my theory, feel free to calm me crazy and stupid and all this other stuff, just an idea
And for anyone that claims that's his actual face... It could be, but if this is a Demon Mask, then... Well
The mask is alive, so... We're both correct there.
I'm done now Once more
YES I KNOW THIS IDEA IS BASED ON OUTDATED INFORMATION BUT IT IS SOMETHING I WANTED TO GET OUT THERE
