Shaco needs a Rework. Amen.

You have a point in your Way of changing his abilities (probably the same as me and a lot of other Shaco Players around here) so i'm gonna give my opinion on your kit for Shaco.

Passive: Beside the thematic aspect of Backstab that has to stay, the new passive would be really strong on his own, denying some of Shacos active playstyle. You should try getting rid of the permaslow, since its one of Shacos most annoying abilities (ofc you have to put the slow somewhere else, you need an on-hit slow). I like the poison aspect though. Only part thats concering is the immense stacking system on it, remember you're an assassin that is supposed to kill people fast.

Q: It needs a Reset in late since you have no way of getting out of a teamfight otherwise. It has to reset on a different way than Trist W of course, you're connecting it to the Pets which is creative, but i don't know if it will be really that good in practice.

W: Scaling Damage through really mixed damage which is nice, I guess the boxes still stealth and everything. The Trap-Camp may be a little cringy but thats alright. The scaling is a bit confusing but i see your point on that. You are disabling his ability to Box-Stackk though, which is critical. By this, your first Clear will be really bad and you will not be able to counterjungle or invade, basicly you're removing his early game strenghts, which I don't think you intended. By the way, you don't have to remove box-stacking, you're using that is during your first clear and using it against enemy champions requires time, luck, follow up and risks. Box-Stacking is, despite this mentally challenged communities opinion, pretty balanced.

E: Same Problem as me, idk what Shaco could have as another ability, i'm sure if he ever gets reworked Riot will come up with a great ability.

R: Obviously the typical changes, true that.

As always, you can compare your Kit to mine on my blog, either way you've got some nice ideas.
