Minus bug - minus winrate
One of the important minor changes in patch 11.15 for League of Legends was that now Shako, when leaving invisibility from his Q skill, displays an orange cloud, which signals the use of the ability, even while in the fog of war.
According to the developers, this ability was supposed to work in the same way in previous versions of the game, but this bug was fixed only in the latest update.
Shaco's winrate in previous patches was around 50%, with a good popularity of the champion, especially at low ranks.
However, games on the latest update showed that the bug fix resulted in a monstrous drawdown in winrate of as much as 2.5%.
Some players admit the possibility of a "hidden fix" of the champion, as they do not believe that such a change could have too much impact on the gameplay. Previously, the developers have resorted to using such changes more than once in order to weaken or strengthen certain champions.
