I actually agree the boxes need a slight buff with HP. I won't go as far as to say they need like 1k hp, but it really gets annoying when even a support character can 1 shot the boxes. Essentially it needs a slight scaling into late game so that while it's still used for utility, it still disrupts some champions more than others. For example, Riot could simply implement a 1% health per health at level 1 (it still holds the same base hp), and level 5, it would gain 5% of Shaco's max health. Probably doesn't seem like much, but assuming you get around 2k HP, you've effectively increased the box HP to 250. Still very simple for a ADC or Top solo to kill in 1 hit, but for someone like a caster or support it would require multiple hits or a spell to dispel. It isn't enough to push Shaco into the OP position of Early game Jungler, since you'd gain like 6 HP on the box at level 1, and nobody tries to kill the box early levels, but it makes the boxes a bit more stable than simple 1 shot blocks.
