I hate feeling weak during parts of the game where I would be crushing with Warwick though, but I know I'm trading it for a retarded sick gank phase.
I would really like to see some of your games with shaco XD do you stream or something like that?
Link to the list of streams, 5hit sometimes streams on Solomid 2. Also they have stream status checker on their page as well
Ok, I recently bought Shaco, but Im not sure at all how to build him. I've tried some Lantern > boots > BT stuff, but I dont really know how viable that is. What are your builds? :x
I don't mean to be an ass, but did you even glance at this thread before posting? The EXACT same question was asked and answered by a few different people like 5 posts ago.

I read through it, but everyone's saying like completely different builds. I figured someone had come up with something awesome after that.

The thing is that every build can work for diferent aspects of the game, I play him with lantern=>Boots+upgrade to what ever you need(usually atack speed boots or mobility), then shen(if things aren't going that well, if they are(meaning you got some kills) get a +50AD sword into IE, after that i usually get a mallet for more hp since even playing him really well sometimes u get caught on some cc(even by total luck from the other team ) and your so squishy... after that i get the shen(or the IE if you build shen first) and usually the game ends
i think it would be better to have kind of a 'these are the items that work on shaco'
sort of thing, with some pointers to item synergy as well as at what time you want to get the items, just kus shaco builds seem to be all over the place. I think the only constant is a madreds razors, whether you're getting wriggles or mbr.
tho, saying that, i do have my silly 4amp tome shaco build that works surprisingly well ^.^
Am I doing something wrong? The new MR changes seemed to have crushed Shaco. I can't get red, blue wraith and min golems, or if I do, I can't follow up with a gank from being too low. I just learned 2 days ago too... ff
pretty sure its just a placement thing, tried it a few hours ago once i died to red the second time i did cleared with plenty of health
you need to drop the box behind the right golem after it gets feared once and hope that box will keep one or both of the mini golems aggro'd so you can have almost full health after the camp
I find he is a hair slower, but still doable. Just make sure you take the time to drop an extra box if you think you may need it. Better to give up 10 sec waiting for an extra and clear a camp for sure and quickly than take time to do it by hand and die in the process.

the thing is, there really aren't any items except madred's razors that are actually 'good' on shaco. just some items are of acceptable quality and others aren't
Can you not skip another point in offense for Greed (if you don't max offense anyways)? Not sure which masteries you get exactly, but if you can for example trade a point in Offensive Mastery or Alacrity for Greed, I would do so immediately.
I prefer 16/0/14 so I can get Greed and Meditation as well as Utility Mastery. My actual damage output is reduced by next to nothing, and I can spam boxes much more freely regardless of whether I happen to have blue buff.
Can you post a picture of 11-0-19? I asked a lot of people and everyone uses different everything. dicksuckchan said 20/0/10 and aspeed yellow/blue without any explanation

because regi uses aspeed yellow/blue To be fair, 11-0-19 makes shaco a lot less dependent on blue buff and gives him some nice benefits like cdr and movespeed, which never hurt. 20-0-10 gives faster camp clear times with its cdr, aspd and arpen, brute strength and crit damage.
Regi's playstyle with shaco is fairly buff dependent, and to that end he is very good at ganking the enemy jungler. He plays a really solo q style, and doesn't really give up his buffs too easily to his teammates either. those slightly faster clear times can sometimes make the difference between ganking an enemy olaf at smallgols at level 3 (if he started blue) and missing him entirely, i suppose. i guess its up to playstyle
