Nice guide

Warmogs brings nothing to the build - Just health... Having a big health pool is overrated, higher armor/MR is a clear winner for Skarner, the shield late mid/late game gives skarner a flat 10-20% more health, with decent attack speed, you're able to have a high uptime on it, and the heal from your E helps you restore what you've lost while the shield is up... Both abilities scaling with AP, making Gunblade a decent item + the On use and the Spell Vamp, increasing the health feedback :)

Good guide, It made me look at skarner a slightly different way, Im stuck in a Regrowh pattern with Skarner, but with boots - Early ganking would be possible, something that I currently find hard. I do think the mana issues with high attack speed on skarner drops off slightly once you start reaching late game though, I generally prio an item like Nashor's quite high on Skarner, though many people disagree... with Reverie + Nashor's you're on a 40% CDR without blue and you have a nice amount of attack speed, but again, it depends on the game and what Im against.

This is a good guide, but I think it needs more bulk, more health, more sustain. Maybe add a Warmog's Armor in there or something?

Well, I tried this build a few time (I played 4 matches till now) and I got a 100% win ratio!
I never got to my last 2 items of the build, because enemy surrendered or we just crushed there Nexus. Thanks for that awesome guide dude :)
Normally I'm not a big fan of guides, but I had no idea what to build with Skarner so i looked around for a build. Then I saw your name in the Title (have seen a few Videos from you) and I thought it could may be a good idea to take a look.
What ever.. sry for that rly, rly, rly bad english but i just had to say that.
In love Ichbingemein <3

Well I've NEVER played skarner before i read this guide and saw a jungler video. Absolutely love it, first game I went 21 2 28 XD. Only thing I can see wrong is the noobs in ranked calling the full build terrible...
I win games left n right with build one but I can't carry all these baddies LOL


+1 for sure man

Did i just lose at writing guides O>O? Nice guide dude , finally some pros writing guides for skarner :).

Awesome guide. Helped me.

i like it

Which build tree would you recommend for a beginning skarner? I'm my Ranked Team's jungler and I'm about to buy him, just not sure how to build him since I'll be getting used to him at first.

turned my skar game from noob to late game closer! gj

Really cool guide, and it does TONS OF DAMAGE! lol

But I don't know why I feel I lose a lot of health and can't gank before getting regrowth pendant, I feel I lose a lot of health clearing the jungle out...

Also, I didn't get to the point of building the Gunblade, and I'm not convinved it would be the best to get late game :P
