Shaco Mechanics!

Hey there! Master Fledgling here.

So, here's a fast one for you:

The items Zeke's Herald and Banner of Command offer buffs to allied champions and allied minions, respectively. There are many more items that offer auras, but these are the two and interest me most!

I ask because Shaco can clone himself, that clone being so authentic he causes on hit effects. Does that extend to auras?

So, for instance, When the clone is up, would Zeke's Herald activate twice, giving my allies 40 Attack and 20% bonus life steal?

Do my auras give bonus' to my clone, and does my clone give bonus' from aura items back to me?

For 'Banner of Command', does it's passive (Increasing the damage of nearby friendly allied minions by 15%) extend to your clone? Does your clone give off this aura too, making nearby minions 30% stronger?

Obviously, if these DO work, they are massive power increases for each item, making them very worthwhile!

Thanks,

-MF

I would like to point out that Aura Effects do not stack, this can be tested in any game by having a team mate and yourself buy the same aura item.

If they did, you would see a lot more teams stacking aura items.

To more clear than everyone else: 1: Aura items only stack up to two stacks of the aura, and on the person who bought it. For instance, if you buy Zekes Herald and so does your support, you both get the aura twice. Other teammates that did not buy a Zekes only get it once. Back when Will of the Ancients was aura AP and Spellvamp double-wota compositions were common. 2: Sadly, Shaco clone is programed to never give out auras. This means that you can't double dip into an aura item by hitting R.

And a distant 3 is, in that im unclear about it, is that I think Shaco clone is affected by Zeke's Herald and not Banner of Command. Which means you can affect 6 targets with it rather than 5 for added gold efficiency. But I want to go test that.
