Guide to Countering Shaco as Kayle

Tips for Playing as Kayle against Shaco

Kayle benefits greatly from Attack Damage and Ability Power, making hybrid items like Nashor's Tooth and Hextech Gunblade very effective on her.

Using Divine Judgment on a high-DPS ally can turn the tides of battle by giving your ally free reign to attack.

Kayle's attacks become incredibly powerful once she gains attack range from Divine Ascent. Play safe until then.

Advice to Win Against Shaco

If Shaco is doing well early-game, it is worth the investment to place Stealth Wards near his Jungle camps.

If Shaco uses Deceive to enter a fight he won't be able to quickly use it again to get away. Work with your team to quickly focus him down.
