I am Gold 4 shaco main. I've been playing shaco since season 4 I think and i fell in love but i wasn't always focused on perfecting my craft and learning how to solo carry. When season 5 started to end and season 6 began i took a 1 month break coming back from that i played shaco and realized why I loved this champ and decided to pick him up and from their I got placed in b1 and climbed to gold 4 with Kha/Shaco so i feel like i know a bit about the characters. I know people will be like oh hes gold he must be **** but this is what I like to play and it seems to work well.

I run these Runes because i feel it gives him what Shaco needs a bit of survivabiliy, More spam(cdr), and offensive stats. Another set I run takes out the attack speed and adds flat damage marks for some extra 1 shot.

I feel like Thunderlords is a must on shaco with his whole Q > AA > E > AA I find myself 1 shotting carries with ease plus assassin and merciless just add a bit of extra dmg along with dangerous game which helps ALOT.

Ok items are the weirdest part I feel like "why got Bead instead of potions?" Well I want tiamat as fast as possible and My playstyle involves invading no matter what(not good I know). But taking the enemy junglers blue or even their life will give you a bit of gold from their I ignore my blue and grab the small camps for some gold. Next up is the Infinity and deaths dance I just feel as if infinity gives alot of dmg plus the additional crit dmg so even without Q the statikk and infinity you have 50% crit meaning you could crit on the auto after q aa and get a crit and just destroy any enemy. Deaths Dance is so strong on shaco with Hydra you can Q aa and gain like 300 hp its crazy so instead of gettting 1 shot you can survive a bit and maybe take out 2 - 3 squishes instead of 1 and survive.

To round everything up i just feel as if this shaco build feels the most fun to me and I hope it will to you too. Finishing up I just like to say that this is my first guide and making it was super fun i know there is not a lot of details but Ill try to update it and follow up on any questions you guys have.
