(icon=shaco size=30) will make Just change the ( ) to [ ]. The size number can be changed to your liking.
The next way is by putting ((shaco)). It makes Shaco. Again, change the ( ) to [ ].
These two methods can be used for champions, items, and runes. Masteries I'm pretty sure don't work.
I have a few things to say about this:
First thing, Two-Shiv Poison CAN NOT be maxed out by level 8, it just isn't possible. The earliest you can max it is 9. That alone implies that you don't know much about Shaco or the game in general, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it was a mistake.
Haha thank you for pointing that out, I didn't notice I did that. It was a paying attention mistake.
My next point is that Lich Bane should be core and Guinsoo's should be a possible replacement, not the opposite, but I suppose that really comes right down to a matter of preference.
Personal preference indeed, but it is preferred by quite a few people. Perhaps I'll include it. I'll want Guinsoo's in there before Lichbane though, simply because it's a whole lot easier to farm once you have Guinsoo's.
Another thing I would like to address is that this build is kind of a hybrid type Shaco build, is it not? There are indeed characters that this works well on, but in my opinion Shaco doesn't fit too well under that category. I find that either straight up AD with survivability or straight up AP with survivability are the best ways to go, but again, it's really my opinion.
My playstyle with this Shaco build is nuke and backdoor. Guinsoo's might give the melee hits a little more power, but ultimately its use is mainly for farming and I think it does a great job of that while also contributing to Shaco's champ killing power. Perhaps I should have clarified that.
I find that the "How does one play this Shaco?" section to be lacking a vital tip that I feel any aspiring Shaco players must know: Hallucinate will remove Shaco from the game for about 0.5 seconds, negating any and all damage coming at you. You can dodge an Enchanted Crystal Arrow or live through Requiem when you have 1 health left.
Yeah, I kind of made this guide with already-competent players in mind. Not on purpose, that's just how it ended up. If I included first-time Shaco player tips, that would make it better, I suppose.
Also in this section you say sheen isn't that great for this build because you can't spam enough. While I respect your opinion on the subject, I feel the need to disagree with it. I've always found Sheen to be great on Shaco for one reason: Deceive. This will activate the Sheen effect and the damage when combined with your critical hit plus bonus damage from Backstab is quite nice. But if you don't find it to be all that great, then that's your choice if you want it or not. Just giving you some options to consider.
Well I just found it wasn't adding enough damage to be worthwhile, but maybe I'm not giving it a chance.
As for the format of the guide, it seems very much like a wall of text. I feel like some pictures would definitely bring a lot more to the guide and make it very enjoyable to read though. If you don't know how to do pictures but would like to, I can help. But if you don't feel it needs any, that's fine as well.
Yes, I just didn't know how to include them. I'm even willing to make the pictures but I'd be lost as to how to include them. Any help would be great, this is my first guide.
Thanks for your feedback.

I feel like some parts of the guide didn't go in-depth enough to really support your claims on what you choose to do. Although it can take quite a while, it is well worth it. Things like giving a list of all your item choices and why they are there is a great start, even more so if you compare them to other choices that you think aren't as good. I could go on and on about what you could do to make this longer, but simply browsing some top builds will give you plenty of info on that mater.
Not a bad build, but the guide could use some touch-ups. An interesting idea none the less though.

Great detail
Great build
