Hello everyone!
I am CloneOrNot a german Streamer and Shaco Toplane OTP. I got 750k on Shaco and chill at high gold at the moment.
This is my first guide on mobafire. I hope you guys like it. If you got something to criticize, tell it to me in the comments so that I can improve on it.
If you got something I should add or something I should change, just write me and I will look what I can do.
Some Abbreviations I use in this guide
+ Good burst in mid- to lategame + Nearly ungankable + High diversity at items and runes + High mobility + Good catch potential + Easy early Herald + Good pull + Basics are easy to learn Shacos basics are very simple too understand. Overally Shaco Toplane is a good and intresting pick due to the diversity in builds and playstile aswell as the chances of amazing mindgames or outplays. |
- Bad 1v1 against most Tanks and tanky Bruisers - Bad earlygame burst - No prio for JG at the start - Early is very reliable on boxes - High mana consum - Many counter and can be easy countered by items - Bad in teamfights - Bad waveclear, due to missing AoE besides W - Solo carry is nearly impossible Although Shaco doesnt look too hard there are some machanics that arent so simple and need a lot of time. Calculating damage, walljumps with ultimate and efficient bating are some of the harder things that you will have to master to get good on Shaco. |

Starting item
✦ The ring is the normal start item. It gives you all stats you need for the start. AP, Mana regeneration and HP. The only problem for this start is high poke because the two potions dont give you enough Hp Regeneration. |
✦ When you are against poke champions as Kennen or Jayce Corrupting Potion is the best start. It has much Hp Regeneration and some Mana regeneration, but you got no AP and no consistent Mana regeneration. |
First item
✦ Hextech Rocketbelt is your go to first item. You should nearly allways go Hextech Rocketbelt. It gives you HP, AP and a good waveclear especailly when you got Ingenious Hunter and because of it a very low CD on Hextech Rocketbelt. Buy in matchups against much poke Kindlegem in all others buy Hextech Revolver first. |
✦ Hextech Gunblade gives you much more burst and damage, but your waveclear depends on Jack In The Box because Hextech Gunblade doesnt improves your waveclear. Only buy Hextech Gunblade when you are ahead and snowballing. Allways buy Hextech Revolver first. |
Second item
✦ With this item you get your first big powerspike and massiv burst. Furthermore it gives you some AD damage. Buy Caulfield's Warhammer first for the CD. Should always be build after Hextech Gunblade. |
✦ Zhonya's Hourglass gives you great defensiv stats. Very good against champions as Malphite, Riven or Akali. Buy Stopwatch first and then afterwards Fiendish Codex for the CD and AP. |
✦ If you are against champions that heal a lot as Dr. Mundo, Morellonomicon is your go to. It gives you good stats and the grievous wounds effect is very strong in early game to stop the healing from potions. |
✦ Liandry's Torment is a very good item against Tanks that go only HP as Dr. Mundo or Cho'Gath. Buy first Haunting Guise. |
✦ It buffs your poke and slightly your burst. Buy it against many champions that can poke as Teemo or Jayce. Get Lost Chapter first when you buy it during early- or midgame. When you buy it in lategame try to get Blasting Wand first. |
More Items
✦ In AP oneshot build is Lich Bane a must. You get high damage due to his on hit damage. |
✦ As Morellonomicon this item grants you Mr Penetration and AP. It is better than Morellonomicon against many targets with much MR, but worse against enemies that didnt bought any Mr. |
✦ Rylai's Crystal Scepter is very good in combination with Liandry's Torment. The Item gives you good stats and a nice supportive stats due to the slow. |
✦ If you get into snowballing Mejai's Soulstealer/ Dark Seal those items strengthen the snowball due to their high AP stats. |
✦ It is the best item against Ap Champions as Sylas or Rumble because you get Mr, HP. And due to the passiv your damage gets even buffed too. |
✦ You can go Guardian Angel in adition to Zhonya's Hourglass to get easier out of the hardest situations. Also you get even more Ar and due to the HP from other items you get very tanky. |
✦ Youmuu's Ghostblade gets you more AD and some lethaility. Very good especailly against mobile champions as Lucian or Riven to get a chance to follow them even with Q on CD. |
Dont Build (Exampels)
✦ You got already enough Lethality with Duskblade of Draktharr and Youmuu's Ghostblade. Furthermore, these items are much stronger than Edge of Night due to their damage or mobility. |
✦ If you would like to buy Infinity Edge you will have to go a AD build, which arent as strong as the AP and Hybrit versions. |
✦ You could go Tiamat after Hextech Gunblade for the push, but then your damage powerspike with Duskblade of Draktharr gets delayed to strong and due to Jack In The Box your push is already good enough. |
✦ Trinity Force is not as good in AP and Hybrit builds as Lich Bane. Furthermore is cost much more than Lich Bane and provides you no stats you need for an build including much AP. |
✦ Another item that delays your damage spike or is useless when you build it as last item. Furthermore, you get already much HP due to Hextech Rocketbelt and can go more defensiv with Zhonya's Hourglass and Abyssal Mask. |
Boots
✦ Giving you even more bust due to the Mr Penetration. |
✦ Giving you Ar and damagereduction against AA. |
✦ Giving you Mr and a CC reduction effekt. |
Eampel end builds
✦ This Hybit build focuses manly on AP. The only AD item is Duskblade of Draktharr. It gives a better early Damage and oneshot potential due to its passiv bonus damage. At the end you could also build items as Morellonomicon or Youmuu's Ghostblade. |
✦ Saver early game due to Zhonya's Hourglass and good lategame oneshot with Lich Bane and Rabadon's Deathcap. To get an even stronger lategame oneshot you can also go Mejai's Soulstealer. |
✦ When you snowball this is a good itembuild in all other situations I would not recommend it because Shacos earlygame push is not strong enough and because of that you lose some pushpower when going Hextech Gunblade. You can also go [Mejai's Soulstealer to get higher damage on your Hextech Gunblade. |
✦ You got much AP what buffs your Two-Shiv Poison extreme and due to the bonus damage from Luden's Tempest your poke gets even stronger. When combining this build with Arcane Comet or Dark Harvest. |
✦ Due to the max Hp damage from Liandry's Torment you got it easier against Tanks but you lose the early- and midgame onshot damage aswell as the safety due to the missing Zhonya's Hourglass. Only use this build against two or even more Tanks or very tanky Bruiser. |

Due to the high mana cost Jack In The Box you should let Jack In The Box on level one till you got Manaflow Band full stacked/ near full stacked, because after full stacked Manaflow Band you got enough mana.

Tip
Box placement
Try to get only one or two Jack In The Box before your Manaflow Band is stacked. When Manaflow Band is stacked you can start to use bigger traps with three to four Jack In The Box. More to the Placement of your Jack In The Box under: Boxplacement |
Farming
Try to farm as save as possible till you get Hextech Rocketbelt especially against champions that can engage you very fast and deal much damage at once as Renekton or Riven. If you get it you can just push the wave and help your JG, midlane or just invade the enemy blue Sentinel/ red brambleback. |
Wavemanagment
|
Try to hold the wave in the marked area. To farm under your turret is very hard because you have to go behind the minions to deal damage against them and during this the enemy can damage you. Aswell you should avoid to push under the enemy turret because your Jack In The Box get shown near their turret and some champions can engage you very easy from under the turret as Shen or poke you down as Gangplank or Ryze. More informations about general wavemanagment can be found HERE. |
Fighting
You need to learn the matchups. In some matchups you can engage early in some you cant and must stay near you boxes till you got one or two items. Also try to poke always with your E when Manaflow Band is up or when you got full mana after Manaflow Band is stacked. If you fight try to get the enemy to walk in a Jack In The Box or only try to get Electrocute proked by attacking im two times and then trowing a Two-Shiv Poison. |
Objectives
Try to get rift herald with your JG as early as possible to get top or mid turret with platings to get an massiv gold lead. Before you go to rift herald just push the wave with your Hextech Rocketbelt or a Jack In The Box and place Jack In The Box so that the wave needs very long to bounce back. |
Teamfights
As long as you didnt got your Duskblade of Draktharr you should avoid teamfights, except you are far ahead. When teamfighting try to oneshot one of the enemy carries, bait the enemy team in a trap, clear up the teamfight afterwards or use your clone to get a fear on the enemies by jumping in an using Hallucinate. You can also use Hallucinate before jumping in. I explain HERE how this is done. |
Splitpush
The best option during midgame is splitpushing. You got with your Jack In The Box a save splitpush and a save escape with your Deceive. Just wait till your team pushes another lane and then push a sidelane. They will need one to stop your push the tower and two to three to stop you to being there and taking the minions. If you think that your team will get engaged stay with your team till you Teleport and then on the sidelane. |
Objectives
Try to help at objectives with some Jack In The Box by placing Jack In The Box near entrances, so that the enemy can't come closer. You can also go on the sidelane and split so that your team could also fight in a 4vs4 or 4vs3 when the enemy tries to contest it, but be sure that you got Teleport when going on the sidelane so that you can help your team when they get in trouble. |
Trapping
If you know the enemies walkpath and see that the midlane or adc is always moving solo around, place a Jack In The Box where they will walk. If they walk in the Jack In The Box you get a easy kill. If ahead you dont need the Jack In The Box by using a Combo. |
Explanation of the signs
Level 1 Trap
|
Version I.I The clasic Lv 1 trap. You need 3 Jack In The Box. Place the first Jack In The Box 0:45 before the buffs spawn and then place always Jack In The Box till you got 3. Then wait. When the enemy walks in a Jack In The Box place the next on right behind him so that he gets feared from Jack In The Box to Jack In The Box. He will has to Flash or dies. |
|
Version I.II The clasic Lv 1 trap. You need 3 Jack In The Box. Place the first Jack In The Box 0:45 before the buffs spawn and then place always Jack In The Box till you got 3. Then wait. When the enemy walks in a Jack In The Box place the next on right behind him so that he gets feared from Jack In The Box to Jack In The Box. He will has to Flash or dies. This trap is most like the first one but it uses one Jack In The Box from coming away after using Flash. |
|
Version II This trap is good if the enemy will not come from red brambleback or if you are not sure. This trap should always be set up. Place the first Jack In The Box on the river side at 0:45, then place the others till you got 3 Jack In The Box. If the enemy walks in a Jack In The Box place another one behind him. If he doesnt walk in one try to bait him in the two Jack In The Box on river side. |
|
Version III This trap is the best one when playing on blue side. This trap should always be set up. Place the first Jack In The Box on the river side at 0:45, then place the others till you got 3 Jack In The Box. If the enemy walks in a Jack In The Box place another one behind him. If he doesnt walk in one try to bait him in the two Jack In The Box on river side. |
Lv 1 Trap exapmle
|
Here is an example of an Lv 1 trap from my steam against a Riven. Even tough one of my Jack In The Box already died I outdamaged her hard with two Jack In The Box and Ignite. |
Laning
|
Blue side All places were Jack In The Box are good repealed. When trying to trap an enemy with Jack In The Box you should choose one position and place up to four Jack In The Box around it. |
|
Red side All places were Jack In The Box are good repealed. When trying to trap an enemy with Jack In The Box you should choose one position and place up to four Jack In The Box around it. |
Saefty box
|
Safety Box If you have pushed all in or your enemy wants to hard engage you, you can also place the Jack In The Box behind the wave. This version gives you more safety from an engage of the enemy, but it got the disadvantage that if the wave bounces back in your direction some boxes will proc. |
Objective Cover
|
Objective cover These Jack In The Box cover most/ all entraces to baron nashor and dragon use them when your team wants to do [baron nashor]] or dragonBlue side is the same, just the Jack In The Box from dragon are at baron nashor and the once from baron nashor are at dragon |
Trap spots
|
Best trap spots These are some of the best spots to set up a trap, but there are much more. Place one to three Jack In The Box on those spots and then wait for an enemy to walk into them. Traps are good on spots that arent too wide and where often enemies are moving along. |
Pre 6 engage combos
Version I: The basic damage combo Deceive -> AA -> Two-Shiv Poison A damage combo pre 6 for getting fast as much damage out as possible. You can skip the second AA when the enemy is out of range or low enough to execute him. Version II: All in engage Deceive -> Jack In The Box -> AA -> -> Two-Shiv Poison It is nearly as the first version but this time you also use Jack In The Box to get more damage and a fear. Set the Jack In The Box in the walking path of the enemy to optimize its effektive. Its your main combo to engage full or nearly full enemies. |
After lv 6 engage combos
Version I: The basic damage combo/ oneshot combo Deceive -> Hallucinate -> Hextech Rocketbelt -> AA -> Two-Shiv Poison A damage combo after 6 for getting fast as much damage out as possible and the best one to oneshot your enemy. You can skip the second AA when the enemy is out of range or low enough to execute him. You can delay your first AA to trick the enemy to think that your clone is you. Version II: All in engage Deceive -> Jack In The Box -> Hallucinate -> Hextech Rocketbelt -> AA -> Two-Shiv Poison It is nearly as the first version but this time you also use Jack In The Box to get more damage and a fear. Set the Jack In The Box in the walking path of the enemy to optimize its effektive. Its your main combo to engage against fulllife or tanky enemies. |
Pre 6 trap combos
For all these combos you need a trap before starting the combo, out of one or more Jack In The Box. Version I: Combo withour another box AA -> Hextech Rocketbelt -> AA -> Two-Shiv Poison When the enemy walks in a Jack In The Box and you go not another Jack In The Box use this combo. When you need to gap close you can use Deceive first to get near enough. Version II: Main Combo/b] Jack In The Box -> AA -> Hextech Rocketbelt -> AA -> ... -> Two-Shiv Poison Use your Two-Shiv Poison as late as possible to optimize its damage. Place the Jack In The Box on the other side from the enemy to get him traped between the Jack In The Box. If you are too fare away just use Deceive. |
After lv 6 trap combos
For all these combos you need a trap before starting the combo, out of one or more Jack In The Box. Version I.I: Trapping Combo Jack In The Box -> Hallucinate -> AA -> Hextech Rocketbelt -> AA -> ... -> Two-Shiv Poison This is the maine verion. It is very fast and good when you got Duskblade of Draktharr because your clone also uses the on hit effect of the item. This is also the faster version of this combo with an high amout of damage. Version II: Non duskblade trapping combo Jack In The Box -> AA -> Hallucinate -> AA -> Hextech Rocketbelt -> AA -> ... -> Two-Shiv Poison Its nearly the same as the one before. You just AA before Hallucinate. This gives you some more damage because you AA one more time and Electrocute gets proked even earlier. |
More damage
There are two versions of the uses under the ***pect of damage, one is splited in three parts. Version I: When you are in a fight just use Hallucinate to deal more damage. The clone will not prock Duskblade of Draktharr and because of the damage lose this isnt too effektive. Version II.I: Use Deceive and when you are at the enemy use Hallucinate this is the classic use of Hallucinate that is nearly allways used when you engage. The only disadvantage is that the enemy sees the smoke before you can damage him, so he gets time to run away and position new. Version II.II: Use Hallucinate before Deceive. When you use Deceive send the clone away from you so that he teleports back to you and the enemy sees the clone first and trows his abilities on it then you beginn to attack. This version is a little bit harder because you have to get the right moment. Version II.III: It is basicaly the same as II, but this time you try to get to explode in the moment where it teleports to you. Just wait till the timer is low and then use Deceive as before. |
Disengage
Escaping: Using Hallucinate gives you a a Little bit time due to the vanishing part. If your Deceive got a short Cd remaining you can just use Hallucinate to bridge the time of the Deceive Cd. You can also jump with Hallucinate over walls to come away. Walljumps are shown in the next subchapter. |
Mobility

Explanation of the signs
The picture shows all spots were walljumps with Hallucinate are possible. |

Dodging

Mindgames
Version I: The easiest and most classic one. Go in a bush and use Hallucinate. Dont go in a bush to close to your enemy because they see the smoke. Then walk out of the bush with your clone and play as it would be you and bait the enemy in a trap, to use spells on it or just to kill it to kill him with the damage. Version II: You will Need some preperation for this one. Place a trap with three or more Jack In The Box. Then use Hallucinate as before than walk with your clone exectly over one of the Jack In The Box. If done Teleport on the Jack In The Box. For the enemy it will look as you would Teleport and he will try to stop you. With this you get a free kill, but only use this in moments where you are sure the enemy will try to stop you from Teleport, because if he doesnt you waste an Teleport. Version III: As already mentioned in the damage subchapter you can use Hallucinate before using Deceive. When the clone blinks back to you can baite some spells out and get then a easier fight. Version IV: You can do some tricks reversed. Use Hallucinate in a bush or on the lane. Then walk with your clone behind in a trap and walk by yourself forwards to farm or attack the enemy. Most of the time the enemy will try to get to your clone to kill him. Use this trick when you are already low. You can also use this trick when escaping. Run away with your clone while sanding still when they attacking your clone run away in the other direction. |
Tips
Number 1: Dont use Deceive in a strait line between you and your enemy. Try to walk in a small cruve. When using Deceive the enemy has to predict where you are and will most of the time aim in the direction of your old position. When moving in a small curve the chance that he hits you is much smaller. Number 2: Dont use abilities instandly after Hallucinate. It shows the enemy witch one is the right one and your illusion is gone. Use spells before Hallucinate as Jack In The Box or Deceive or use them later to execute or follow up as with Two-Shiv Poison or Deceive. Number 3: Try to get Rift Herald as early as possible to open the map and to get a chance to roam and help other lanes. You can solo it by using Hallucinate and Jack In The Box. You will just need your jungler to Smite. |
Tricks
Number 1: You can use Jack In The Box out of its range. If you use Deceive afterwards and come in range within the blink the Jack In The Box will be placed instandly. Number 2: You can perform some long jumps along the map. In the video I show the two most used once, which get primary used for ganking. You have to stand at the end of the bush and move your mouse to a specific spot then press Deceive and you have done it. Number 3: Number 4: You can clear a whool wave with only one Hextech Rocketbelt activation. Just move through the wave so that meele and ranged minions stand near to each other. Then just use Hextech Rocketbelt. When the wave got a cannon minion it can be that you have too AA sometimes. |
Remember
Number 1: Remember that the enemy can see if you use Deceive even when you are in fog of war. They will see the smoke it leaves behind. Number 2: Remember that the enemy can see if you use another ability during Deceive. When using Jack In The Box Shaco will be shown in white scale for a very short time. |
Overall
S-Tier: Very easy Matchups. This are champions that hard engage you and cant block the damage of your Jack In The Box, as Jaxs Counter Strike and cant destroy Jack In The Box very fast, as Renektons Cull the Meek. A-Tier: Easy Matchups. This are champions with hard engages, which can also block damage or the fear of Jack In The Box with spells or shields. B-Tier: Ok Machups. This are champions with hard engages, which can also block much damage or the fear of Jack In The Box with spells or shields or can even oneshot the Jack In The Box as Irelias Bladesurge. Also ranged champion with hard engage and poke fall in this category as Quinn. C-Tier: Medium Matchups. These champions have a positive side and a negative one. Malphite is very tanky but he got an hard engage. Teemo on the other side can poke and doesnt have an hard engage, but is very squishi. D-Tier: Hard Matchups. Champion is this category got most of the time a spell to poke and are very tanky too as Yorick with his Mourning Mist. Furthermore most of them dont have any hard engages. E-Tier: Very hard Matchups. In this category are mostly champion that can oneshot many of your Jack In The Box as Darius with Decimate or can tank them while dealing massiv damage as Poppy or Shen. F-Tier: Nearly impossible Matchups. Champion that counter you in any part. Most of them can poke you very hard and can destroy your Jack In The Box very fast, while being very tanky or just save in lane. Tip for beginners: Try not to come against champions that are E or even worse, because they will crush you in lane. Look for S, A and B matchups, these have a good difficulty for beginner. |
