Well, I am a decent Shaco player, not super, just decent.

What I find very difficult at ganking is the opponent that I gank. Champions like Malzahar, Lux or Veigar are way to easy for gank.

But champions like Akali, Gragas or Katarina that have a way to get away from me are far more difficult to kill.

Same goes for bottom lane, it is a lot harder to kill Ezreal than Ashe.

What I want to point out is following: Don't flame your jungler Shaco if he can't shut down entire enemy team in first 10 minutes. He is hard to play enough and don't make it harder.

Also, Shaco is not only early game champion, he can be a terific late game assassin.

His power is very high in first 10 to 15 minutes, then it goes really, really low over 20-30 minutes, once you get apropriate items (infinity edge, the black cleaver, phantom dancer...) you will slowly regain your power. Peak of his power is using Q to fade in, strike a carry, use ultimate to confuse him, then proceed to gangbang him in 2 shots. Add backstab to that formula and voila.

Also he is very good at killing champions that have skillshots, it is very hard to ait skillshots at close distance. And when you pop out of thin air, enemy usually panicks and tends to miss all skillshots. Not only it would net you a kill, but it will render that champion useless and he will blow all of his cooldowns on missed spells.
