Summoner Spells Back to Top
Ignite is a very good summoner spell on Shaco because it allows him to do a lot more things. Your ganks will become stronger and scarier because you got extra damage from ignite plus the heal reduction if they have any sort of healing ability/item. Ignite will also allow you to have a easier time fighting ADC's, the healing reduction will basically cut their lifesteal into half and the damage of time hits pretty hard on squishy targets.
Exhaust is a situational summoner spell when the enemys got a lot of burst damage (for example: Zed, Riven, Rengar). Exhaust will make it easier fighting those enemys because Shaco is very squishy if you don't buy any defense on him, especially in the early game where u want to get some damage items. Exhaust is also a very powerful summoner spell when you are splitpushing because it's easier for you to fight the enemy that is trying to stop your splitpush.

I personally like to get my Q to rank 3 by the lvl 5 and after getting my Ultimate ability 
I start to max my E to get more slow from my basic attacks. There is no reason to max your Q 1st since putting 3 points into it gives enough dmg and stealth time imo.

Buying the right boots is pretty much situtational. If you have a huge lead as a jungler then just rush boots of swiftness to get our ur full potential as counter jungling / counter ganking beast. If enemy team has alot of cc you should always just rush for mercurial treads to reduce cc. If enemy team as alot of aa champs like Draven, Vayne, Tryndamere or Irelia you should go for ninja tabis to reduce that sweet 10% from auto attacks.

Evelynn
Medium
You can kill her on his second buff if you are smart and you get her low. But careful: If her lanes come help you may be in serious trouble. Be sure to rush hexdrinker against her and try to put a pinkward in the bush above red buff. Tell your laners to play safe and buy pinkwards. She will also most likely gank botlane when she reaches level 6 so keep that in mind.
VS
Ivern
Hard
Since Ivern is really strong at counterjungling and you will never know his early pathing unless your team wards his jungle he can be a real pain in the ass. I personally just happen to hate Ivern more than any other champs even when he doesn't have alot of damage but his counterjungle potential is ridicilious.
VS
Kha'Zix
Medium
Skill Matchup. He can snowball so hard if he gets few kills early. Try to get your lanes fed so they can fight him. You can kill easily on his red at lvl 2, since he will probably take E + Q skills and won't have the jump ready yet. IMPORTANT: If you place a Jack In the Box when duellign him, he won't see you isolated, so the damage you will receive from his combo will be much less! If he is fed try to avoid fighting him alone because he will murder you with his Q.
VS
Lee Sin
Hard
The most known counter due to reveal and countergank power. However this is a double-edged counterpick. If they pick lee sin to counter you (so after you pick), you can outplay him. If you find him on his jungle when he just used Q + E to farm, he's dead. A good lee sin can destroy your game, so ban him if you have bad experienced against lee sin. If you fight against him it's a must to block his Q with your R because otherwise he will Q>R>Q bursting you down to almost no heath.
How to clear ur jungle. Back to Top
Put 2 boxes at ur Blue buff and 2 boxes at ur gromp and ask for a nice leash so you can clear ur blue buff + gromp and wolves without using smite. After you have cleared to blue side from the jungle you shuold go fro raptors and use ur smite there to get em down easily. After you have cleared ur raptors you should aim for Red buff and then you go for ur krugs and smite em. When you have cleared ur whole jungle once you should aim for a possible gank if you can.
