commenting on your guide will add more as i see fit. shaco is one of my most played champs and i will enjoy picking your brain since i consider myself to be one of the top shaco players (tank shaco). i know crazy huh?


cloth armor to start, although i like the defense aspect, i find healthregen as my item of choice...while placing jack in the box can regen without doing anything. although i like the fact that you allow me to see jungling done with speed. i also like how you made several builds, none of which were pure tankage but thats ok.

with GA im a firm believer that shaco is one of the strongest initiators + disruptors in the game. being able to survive initial attacks and disrupt the enemy. i implore you to try your talent at other champions as it looks like you have played almost every game with shaco. i cant stand to play more than about 30 games straight before i test my hand at other champions to see how they work, so i can come back and kill them.

how many games have you played total? im interested.

after reading your guide i have a lot of respect for your achievements and i will leave you with a question:

what do you think about starting out as a turret destroyer to push lanes and get gold, and if the game is not ending soon you transition into a tank shaco with your aegis and other items(selling some of originals)? the whole time you can stilll jungle and push lanes that are vacant?

@daegon

cool bro..i do agree that the recent changes to shaco have made us change the way we play him. ive seen shacos attack 2-3 ppl at a time and not try to ever team fight. i understand the power of shaco as he is my most played champ currently, but i also stress the importance of playing with the team as much as possible. im not taking away from the great solo ability of shaco, i just wanted to share with you my recent exploits with shaco. i firmly believe that tank shaco is one of the most viable builds out there for high elo games.

i also am looking forward to incorporating some of your play styles in with mine and coming up with game specific builds. thanks again for the input.

I heard that stark's aura stacking with shaco's ult got fixed, as well as madred's on shaco's clone. Is that true? Is it still best to get Madred's BR anyway on him?

just played as shaco using your guide daegon. went 8-1. was a fun game. i messed up on the jungling a bit and they interrupted me at the beginning however i just blue pilled back and the buff again. it is extremely useful to be jungling with shaco with this build. also i felt it was key to make sure you keep the neut buffs as much as possible.
