I THINK can be viable, for a team if don't have a AP CC

IS viable i saw this type of player and he realy helpin team fight with his ultimate and exhaust for one of the carry's. I like this guide but maybe a guinso would be nice.

Ehh I changed the AA into Rylai's because the slow and health lets him be more tanky?

just tried out the build, works really well thumbs up bro you did great :)

I had a similar build idea and it sounds like it works. Kudos to you. But I would also have to agree on the Rylai's instead of the AA Staff. It would overall help you chase, AP, and Tank stats. +1

STOP SPAMMING THIS FRACTURE-LVL-UP-FIRST! Aaaargh! but nice guide, though...

Fracture is the best ability at lvl 1.... it's heal is a lot at that level and it does a decent damage, good guide +1

add something tanky though like rod of ages or rylai's crystal scepter

Getting Rylai's instead of Archangel's Staff could be good, but i found my mana pool very tiny.
I'll try something else and i keep you informed.

If AP Skarner, needs more Rabadon's Deathcap and Void Staff, imho. Also, more Magic Penetration.

Looks solid, i am going to test this build out~!

Actually gotta give this a +1. Best build I've ran on him so far for a lane Skarner. I changed it out a bit, by putting Rageblade in before I upgraded Tear to Arch Angel, because at that point in the game, you should have Rageblade up at 8 stacks 24-7 in and out of combat which is VERY nice and gold efficient, while still letting you get your crazy late game upgrades if things drag on.

IMO, you did it right. E's his bread and butter harass in lane, W's his survivability two-fold. You power rank those, and don't rank your Q until end game when it becomes powerful in team fights.

I went from mediocre results to carrying a game earlier. One thing: you cannot ever initiate as Skarner. Always let someone else handle that. However, once the fight commences, you get in fast, ult their highest threat target, and you spam auto-attacks and abilities like no ****ing tomorrow. Scored a quadra today with variation of this build and carried an otherwise bad-faring game.

Good stuff.
