Can I request that anyone actually rating the build give a validated reason for their decision. This will allow me to actually make improvements based on the whole community. At present, the build is just what I like to do.

Some criticism:

1. It's a HUGE wall of text, even though it has much codin (+ for that) it still has too much text, without any actualy "I want to read this" part.

2. Your item explanation is pretty neat, it doesn't explain all choices, and I wouldn't never prefer a newb to get Leviathan and it isn't so easy to gain stacks since you are the tank, you are going in first, and since this isn't ranked guide, you will be most likely focused.

3. Also, pictures would be pretty nice.

Although you have my condolences for the effort, there are plenty of things to improve.

1. You don't need to list every item in your recipes, it clutters your cheat sheet up.
2. A Leviathan, although it is a fun item, isn't consider viable for competitive plays, and for newbies, will be pointless to get. Not to mention that item takes a long time to get stacks for, and since you are the tank, you will die often intiating the charge.
3. You don't get Indomitable , which is a great thing to get. You also should get the 21st point in defense, because the 2 points in Butcher aren't worth the points you could use to get Juggernaut .
4. Proper grammar and punctuation, which has my thumbs up. Your BBC coding has a few errors, such as in your Pros/Cons.
5. You need much more explanation on your items, as well as potential items. Skarner is amazing for the fact that he can variate his build so easily and effectively.
6. Although there is a lot of BBC coding, you lack colors, indents, large pictures, videos, and creative/artistic methods to display some of your information.

Overall - you lack a lot of 'information' that you COULD include, as well as reader's appeal since the information is in paragraph (wall of text) format, therefore unappealing to read. Space it out, use indents, different BBC coding, and so on.

There are guides on this site for bettering your guide that you could always refer to.

No vote from me, but if you start to improve it, I'll gladly turn that into a +1.

Athough Leviathan isnt viable, this guys a **** so ignore him. It was good, wasnt great, Your cheat sheet is over sized as you listed all recipes, just list the key ones not all

Leviathan is the most odd item you can get for Skarner. A tank has to die for the team thus not letting him to get snowball items, even if you think you will carry the game leviathan is still a bad choice.
Butcher is a bad mastery for Skarner as his clearing is not fully based on auto attacks like Warwick. Also the points in utility are wasted, improved Flash and Good Hands are way better choices.
Will keep my vote because I think you already understood what people think about this... please consider our reviews.
