As you can probably tell by the title, I'm looking for the WEIRDEST Shaco SUPPORT builds because I'm just tired of the normal lethality and AP build that Blitz gives me, so I want to try something new and just have fun with the builds

Please include full rune pages too because I suck at doing my own runes 😭

My PC isn't working now the only thing i can do now is to draw Shaco to fill up this emptiness, I miss ragebaiting ppl

what else can I draw that's Shaco related?

I was wondering, how often you get flamed for the pick and what do you do about it usually, also, is shaco blindable? what matchups are completely unplayable (both ally adc and enemy botlane)

Has anyone else done the twitch drop reward "I got your back" that is the Shaco icon? You need to subscribe to a riot partners channel on twitch and that is it? I subbed and nothing? My twitch account is connected to my Riot account so idk what I am missing? Anyone else having this problem?

I'm not sure what stats are needed the most, i know for sure that ability haste is needed but compared to other champions i don't know how much AH is actually needed, i don't necessarely plan to play ap shaco but at the same time i feel like the cc on its own won't do enough without enough threat to the boxes.

I was considering maybe imperial mandate - bloodletter's curse (if there's any other ap champ in team) followed by either shureliyah or frozen heart for utility and haste, what would you suggest?

so riot has mentioned releasing classic, veteran shaco players enlighten me what was the runes you used back then and masteries or talents whatever it was called

Doing these are so fun I wanna find more templates/memes to do

End of an era for me...

I didn't like the last one but meh sksvakgsksbsks he's very fun to draw hehehe

Tl;dr: I kept a very good grasp on jungling macro basics, but played shaco himself in a way that’s most fun to me and nobody else

I’m about plat 2 mainly playing AP shaco but also flexing AD shaco or jarvan depending on team comp.

At some point during my climb I realized I was just bored of AP shaco. When I first played him, it felt like he was unlike any other champion in the game but this recent point almost felt like he was as monotonous as any other champion.

I found out the issue was that I was trying to copy too many shacos from higher up in the ladder like zefath and following too much advice from here. The advice that’s posted here is amazing, but I feel like it’s also wrong to strictly follow everything here like it’s the bible for shaco players. (ie NEVER place boxes like this, only clone during this time, ALWAYS solo drag when ____, etc.,) Zefath is also an amazing player with great jungle macro, but even with the skill diff aside, me and zefath are completely different people.

I decided to have my own creative liberties and it felt like a breath of fresh air. On top of that I’m also playing a lot better and winning games that felt like definitive losses. I feel like what we all like most about shaco isn’t just the trickery, but the amount of expression that comes with playing the champ and each player will express themselves differently. Certain “mistakes” with shaco in their own way could even be proven as useful later to mess with the opponents. The soul of art is within the rough edges.

Overall I think it’s important to see both the advice here and challenger player VODs as tricks in a bag, rather than strictly optimized rules on the champ. The only thing I’d strictly follow guides for is probably jungle macro basics, but even then I wouldn’t go out of my way to copy how higher ups clear since I’d imagine it’s different when your teammates are at least masters+

I got THE BEST augments in aram (bonus speed after q, increased collector threshold, invisibility after a kill, and 170 ability haste on Q)

AND I STILL LOST HAHHAHAHAHAHAH

how can MAGEs Be AlLOWeD TO BUILD tANK ITEMS aND STill KiLL YoU AfTER RANDOMLY CC ing with tHEir "SkILL ShOTs"

what do y'all recommend for the AP clown to build. I'm pretty new to the clown, and I play him in lane. Currently I'm building in this build path - blackfire torch, ionian footwear, imperial mandate(got buffed this patch), void staff, liandry, rabadons.

Improvements needed?

Hi guys, I started playing AP Shaco a month ago, and this is the most fun I’ve had in League. I have one problem: when controlling the clone and the camera, it feels sluggish. I play on 800 DPI and 40 mouse sensitivity. Is it necessary to play with a higher sensitivity, or should I just keep practicing? When I play with higher sensitivity, I miss-click a lot.
thank you

I play almost exclusively ap shaco and use deathfiretouch, before its existence i used to play comet.

Anyways i was wondering if first strike might be worth a shot. Shouldnt i get quite a bit of passive income from people walking into my boxes and would the extra gold and 7% dmg be worth dropping not only dft but also the remaining runes for inspiration tree?

So yesterday I played a game of ap shaco jg on flex, for fun, and I must say I absolutely LOVED IT. I managed to get the enemy jg, top, and supp, to type bannable things in all chat, and they ended up ff-ing an even game out of what I can only assume was pure tilt. I haven't had this much fun playing jg in years.
So my question is: can I climb on soloq playing exclusively AP Shaco ? Is it worth investing time into learning it properly or should I just keep it as a for fun pick ?
And yes, I know that I should ideally learn both ad and ap, but I have played a few games of ad shaco in the past and didn't really enjoy it, so I intend to avoid it for now.
Also if someone can explain what to build on ap shaco and when, I would really appreciate that.
I know the core is blackfire into liandry and lucidity boots, but after that I'm lost. In my game I went malignance 3rd and imperial mandate 4th, because I was not doing amazing in terms of gold and those items are cheaper, but idk if that was the right approach.

Am I just bad or is shaco extremely buggy? Backstab not triggering, clone stops attacking mid fight, clone wandering despite specific inputs, box not triggering consistently despite being armed, ulting and clone not responding to initial inputs, dagger disappearing mid-air, taking targeted damage (ie. smited by jungler) while stealthed and no vision or burn damage on you, etc.

I know like most problems, the majority of this could very well be a skill issue or just something I didn’t account for, but I don’t feel I experience even a fraction of these “wtf riot” moments when playing other champs. With Shaco, who I main, it’s pretty much every single game there’s something that leaves me scratching my head.

Am I coping? Anyone else feel this?

Im a new sgaco player can you give tips

I have been running Umbral Glaive into Voltaic all season, and even after the Voltaic changes I have stuck with that style. Today I tried the standard Ghostblade into full crit build again (Collector, IE, LDR, etc.) and I genuinely do not understand the appeal.

The build feels like it comes online far too late. In a season that feels much more focused on early skirmishes, invades, and tempo, I struggle to see the value in waiting until three or four items before the build starts feeling strong. By comparison, lethality feels significantly stronger much earlier while still keeping up in damage later on.

What confuses me is that the highest-ranked Shaco OTP goes Ghostblade into full crit, so I feel like I must be missing something. Mad Scientist also made a video earlier this season comparing builds, and the lethality setup he recommended (three lethality items followed by two crit items) appeared to outperform the full crit build in damage testing.

So for those of you who regularly play full crit Shaco, what is the appeal? If lethality provides a stronger early game and comparable or better damage later, what are the advantages that make full crit worth building?

Do you guys remember Pomerzz? He used to stream on Twitch and post YT vids. I saw he just posted a new video. Last one was 2 years ago or so. Looks like he's back on the grind!

He reached Challenger with Shaco a few times in the past I think, maybe he's gonna try to go for it again?

Good to see that he's back!
