Scuttle Contest

At level 3, you win the scuttle fight against Shaco cleanly if you land your Q and immediately follow up with E to slow him before he can Q away — his boxes deal damage but fear alone does not kill you, and your W shield plus passive sustain lets you trade through them.
From level 6, you win the 1v1 by using your Q to confirm a hit before he can Q into stealth, then immediately E to slow and prevent repositioning, because if you let him Q first and reset behind you, the backstab damage combined with box fear will swing the fight heavily in his favor.

Shaco will most likely start on the opposite side of the map from you to avoid an early confrontation, clearing his buff into boxes-assisted camps before looking for a gank around level 3; he rarely contests scuttle at level 3 unless he has boxes pre-placed in the river bush.
Expect him to play for picks and gank lanes with kill pressure rather than contesting objectives directly, and watch for him to place boxes in river bushes before scuttle spawns.

You should invade Shaco's jungle when you have vision of him on the opposite side of the map — his boxes are his primary defense mechanism and without them pre-placed, his 1v1 dueling is significantly weaker.
The optimal timing is after your first full clear around 3:15–3:30 when you are level 4 and he is likely between camps; walk into his jungle from a non-standard angle to avoid pre-placed boxes at common entry points.

Do not walk into river bushes or jungle entrances without vision when Shaco is unaccounted for — a single box fear into his Q backstab in a confined space can kill you even at full health if you are not expecting it.
Avoid using your Q to gap-close onto him when he is near a bush, as he will Q into stealth mid-flight and your Q will miss, leaving you without your primary damage tool and gap-close for several seconds.
