Playing against Shaco

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Buy control wards: Shaco's Q makes him invisible, control wards reveal him.

2

His clone (R) doesn't have the same items — hover over it to check, or wait for it to explode to identify the real one.

3

Boxes have an activation delay — if you hear the sound, Flash or dash immediately.

4

Ward deep: Shaco's ganks come from unusual angles thanks to his Q. Vision neutralizes him.
