Scuttle Contest
- You lose scuttle fights level 3 due to Shaco's Q stealth allowing him to position optimally and his E slow preventing your escape.
- From level 6, you can only reliably 1v1 him if you have form transformation and catch him without Q available, as his stealth and clone make extended fights heavily favor him.
Predicted Jungle Path
- Shaco typically starts bot side for a safer leash, then paths toward top side to look for early ganks on overextended laners.
- He often skips camps to prioritize counter-jungling or ganking opportunities, making his pathing highly unpredictable and gank-focused rather than farm-oriented.
Invade or Not
- Avoid invading Shaco early game as his Q stealth and box setup make him extremely dangerous in his own jungle.
- Your best invasion opportunity is mid-game when you have form and can clear his camps quickly, but only invade his opposite side when you see him ganking across the map.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase Shaco through unwarded areas or jungle corridors where he can set up boxes and use terrain to his advantage.
- Avoid face-checking bushes against him as his Q repositioning combined with E slow can turn any encounter into his favor, especially in tight spaces.
