Playing as Shaco

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Gank from behind

    Gank with Deceive (Q) and come in behind your target: Backstab (passive) empowers hits from behind, and your first invisible auto becomes a critical strike.

  2. Finish with Two-Shiv Poison

    Save Two-Shiv Poison (E) to finish: the shiv deals much more damage to a target below 30% health.

  3. Trick them with your clone

    Cast Hallucinate (R) to bait their spells: you briefly disappear and reappear with a clone, which explodes on death into three boxes that fear.

  4. Trap their escape routes

    Place Jack In The Box (W) on their escape routes or at a camp entrance: invisible after a delay, it fears champions who come near, then shoots them.

Playing against Lee Sin

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Step up when he misses Q

    Step up when Sonic Wave (Q) misses you: without it, he has no dash to reach you, and it has a 10 to 6 second cooldown.

  2. Spread out from your allies

    In teamfights, spread out from your allies when facing him: the champion he kicks with Dragon's Rage (R) damages every enemy they collide with and knocks them into the air.

  3. Watch your early jungle

    Ward your jungle entrance early on: Lee Sin often looks to invade early to get ahead.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Lee Sin is strongest early and loses impact once everyone has their items.
