Thank you for this awesome guide. Its so helpful and useful and I see you have spent a lot of time to creat it. But I have one question:
-Is it better to get Statikk Shiv instead of Trinity Force because I think its good combo with Shaco's passive. Anyway thanks again.
-ScdoWn
One thing's for sure - Statikk Shiv is 1133 gold cheaper, and is better for waveclear. I think it also would deal more damage early in the game and longer duels, but I'll stay with Trinity Force. Especially in late game.
Numbers!
Statikk Shiv Would crit for 240 magical damage + 2% from Assassin it would be 244,8 magical damage, when on lvl 18 Trinity Force with Sterak's Gage with Assassin would hit for 298.35 physical damage, while with Assassin , but without Sterak's Gage on lvl 18 it's 238.68 physical damage.
Statikk Shiv would have better damage when not on max lvl, and also because enemy would probably have lower magic resist, than armor. It would also give that crit chance, but it's hard to put it in calculations. Definitely the crit would be nice for longer duels. Yet Trinity Force have many other things.
Trinity Force passive damage can be used after using a spell EVERY 1,5 second, while Statikk Shiv needs to be charged, and I doubt it'll be charged in 1,5 second.
Trinity Force also gives some health to work with Titanic Hydra, mana to cast more spells, and another passive Rage gives more mobility to chase enemies.
tl;dr
Statikk Shiv is better in early game, longer duels and when you need to waveclear, but Trinity Force have a lot of other stuff, and deals a lot more damage if you can proc it often ( Two-Shiv Poison low CD helps a lot).
Cheers!
