Whos good with shaco?

[quote=Cammy152]Been trying new chars lately and i found myself loving shaco Boxes, Ganking, High dmg is all fun till you end up peforming under what you should do. I know there are shaco guides but id like to see players input onto this. What build do you prefer : AP / AD? Dammage / HP? Runes : HP / CD / AP pen / Arm Pen My question is why does it happen at random times even below level 5 i sometimes see a normal crit for around 500 dmg when not using the stealth skill? Anyone any ideas? If anyone has a build thats good for 5v5's, I know hes really ment for 3's id be happy to check it out[/quote]

[quote=Footyballs]The possible 500 crit could be a crit with Madred's Razors/Wriggle's Lantern but only on a minion... I have only played AD and I love shaco, however I find no matter how you build him he's still far too squishy. Really fun to play though. I use ArP reds / flat CDR blues / Mana reg per lvl yellows / Health or ArP quints.[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]AD is definitely the more viable build to go. My suggestion would be to learn how to jungle with him and jungle well. AP is situational and pretty utility, although at low elo could probably be tons of fun.[/quote]

[quote=Riggsinator]Managed to get a look at the top Solo Ranked people's last few games played. One or two of them is constantly playing Shaco and winning. I want to get better at Shaco.. but I'm just bad at him I find lol. Most guides tell you to build Madred's, but I don't like Madred's on him. It's an item that you need to stand and beat on someone, which just aint gonna happen as shaco. People will always burst you down ASAP. Clone is great for taking towers. Box is great for jungling. Deceive is great for ganking/fleeing. Though I admit that I'm bad at him because I rarely play him.[/quote]

[quote=SchizoFrancis]I used to be good. Then I lvl'ed up some and people actually learned to counter me. That's when I found Singed...[/quote]

Also, Shaco is a kind of weak character, and since he's an assassin it will be very hard to carry with him, even if you do get fed.[/quote]

[quote=Vaan99]Shaco is extremly powerful assassin, has huge burst dmg (with only 2 items- Infinity Edge and Trinity Force can do more than 700 dmg with q spell), but he's really squishy, something like melee ezreal with 3 times bigger dmg ^^ AP shaco is bad, that's all i have to say... (staying in bush for half of game stacking jacks is stupid, and hunting with clone is funny but bad, i don't recommend it. As shaco you should focus on Critial Dmg and Dmg, critical chance (Sheen is amazing item on him, followed by Trynity Force), you should always buy Infinity edge and sheen, that's your core (and boots ofc). After that simply focus on AD, items like Bloodthirster, Black Cleaver, Last Whisper are really good, but you should build him sutional, maybe a bit surviability- Bansee Veil.[/quote]
