You're completely out of your mind if you think AP Shaco mid works against anyone who hasn't suffered a brain lobotomy, especially when you're sporting 0 MRes and Armor on runes.

i just want to say, sheen would also be a very good item, as it gives you some AP but also it gives you more mana. As this Shaco is pretty mana-hungry i think that sheen should be considered as an early build and could be built into iceborn gauntlet if really necessary.

Long time shaco fan love the guide, if you could give in depth descriptions of the perfect situation (up to level 6 or so) it would help with the idea of a AP/Mid shaco ... I normally do a hybridish jungle (nashors tooth with AP=AD mastery lichbane ect...) and the recent changes to items have messed with my play style but I am not sure how this champ would work in mid would love to use this but only situation I see happening is shaco getting melted time and time again without bushes and walls to protect him
