MATCHUPShaco · Jungle · Patch 26.14 · Ranked Solo · Updated Jul 22, 2026

Shaco vs Mordekaiser in Jungle lane is a hard lane on patch 26.14. The one thing to respect: his E is how he catches you — dodge it or cancel it with Q so he can't set up the kill. Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it
DO
Dodge his E
Q through it if you have to; it's his main way to lock you down.
Escape his ult
You can Q or R to escape his ult, but if you R inside the realm and it ends your clone and boxes are lost — save R for when you come out.
Deny his passive
When you close in to farm, try not to feed him his passive, and walk away whenever it's up.
DON'T
Never R inside his Realm of Death unless you're already dead — if his ult ends first, your clone and boxes are stranded.
