First off, Very good guide, +1

I'm a bit confused about one thing,

Champs you should try avoid laning with:

Any melee without a proper harass against a good ranged, or with a(*n) insufficient mana pool to be worth it.
(Udyr, Yi, Mordekaiser etc)

Now, I am aware of the fact that Mordekaiser puts himself in a lot of danger while trying to harass and I accept the fact that Shaco shouldn't lane with him, but saying that he can't harass, and that he doesn't have a sustainable source of damage e.g His own Health!!!? I've solo'd lanes with Mordekaiser and even got 1st blood + Double Kill! Reason I agree with you is that he doesn't have any CC...

FB = First Blood, right?

Also, you might wanna list acronyms such as jitb... while saying "boxes" most of the time, Also the vid doesn't say how many boxes you need to kill the golem.

@Guest

I'll be sure to add an acronyms list and a better explanation on the golem.

FB = First blood indeed.

@Alahric

If you read the sentence right after the text put in italian you will see that I said:

...now I know that all heroes have some kind of harass...

Im sure his shield can keep him up for a few hits, but a good range will see him coming, and most likely just kite him.. Not to the degree that it will zone him away from the mobs, but just enough for it to not be worth it.

Ofcourse I have not properly tested him myself like the other champions ive noted, So I just have a general opinion of him when seeing other people playing him. I'll be sure to update the guide once ive tried him.

Yo man this guide is great.. Well thought out build and it looks like you play shaco alot. I play him alot in 5v5's but i dont like trying to get too good in champs who usually get banned in tourneys! +1 though! Also, i like how you are going sheen first for the crits. Its one of those things, somewhat like when a kat does or does not go heart of gold. Smart strat and didnt think of that (i play since beta but just getting back into it now!) thanks man and check my kat build!

Only one thing wrong with your crit dmg build,
It's a little out-dated... Crit dmg maxes out at 24%.
Otherwise good build.

Good build but you says shaco is squishy? shouldent you then avoid getting squish'd out on the floor? cause if you meet a feed Shaco you just haw to build your items to kill him.(Ignite,Deathfiregrasp,Zhonya's Ring, and a good nuke and your legendery killstreak is over). (+1)

@Guest

By "Crit dmg maxes out at 24%" you mean the crit cap? which makes no sense.
Please do explain what you mean.

@little mofo

Shaco is squishy, easy to rape from all directions!
But if you can't catch him then he wont get raped, you can chase him around the whole map, chase him as long as you like, but most likely he just managed to drag you, the guy with all the epic sweet nuke gear around, giving your teammates much needed time to either gather up around you, or simply push.
Building a Shaco with any major health items to make him last longer will just reduce your impact on the game, as I wrote in my guide:
"Do NOT risk your life, the only thing that can kill you as Shaco is your own stupidity!"
Meaning that IF that other team has someone just waiting to rape you in 2 spells, then stand back, be with your team, jungle, just dont get killed, or try killing.

how can it max out at 24%? i got 46% crt dmg just in runes... so wut that means i wasted half of runes for nothing?

I really do doubt it caps on 24%, otherwise the runes are very misleading.
I just think it is a communication problem between me and the other Guest.

You could always test it, even though it might prove to be a devestating fact it will atleast help you become a better shaco.

I know that according to your logic it will work, but remember the last person who referred to logic? yeah, don't be too sure of yourself.
