AP Skarner is completely useless and should only be used for trolling. It also completely nerfs your level 1-2 because of the necessary rune setup.

AD Skarner doesn't even exist lol.

Only damage item should be a Sheen upgrade and sometimes Zephyr.

What about Mpen Tank Skarner, Asian?

I mean like, similar to how you'd build top Zac.

Iunno. Why don't you try it for me?

Triforce/Gauntlet is already a billion damage, but the main difference is that Zac is quite hard to kite and he has high base damages + % HP damage + all his damage is magical, while Skarner is like half physical half magic.

Edit: Fun fact, Liandrys' DoT procs Fracture heal.

Well, I do a build on Shyvana that's like Sunfire Aegis, Liandry's Torment, Wit's End, and other items that synergize with a kinda magical damage AS tank champ.

Would that work for Skarner?

Again, why don't you try it for me :V

I'm not really advocating Skarner builds here, more like I'm telling people to try a champion who has a kit that can be abused at top lane.

ZurixDrdoo plays a lot of top lane Skarner and does well with it:

He usually does AP-bruisery kind of thing, though.

I think when Voyboy ran it, he did something like 21/9 or 17/13 masteries (can't remember which). I just remember he took both arpen and mpen in the offense tree. Might be worth looking into since Skarner dishes out some pretty good hybrid damage.
