Ty for this !
This guide is perfect !

Thanks for the guide, I didn't see any guides for Top Skarner this comprehensive for pre-season, so this really helped me out when trying him out.

Thank you for posting this guide. I have been looking for something off-meta for a while and this is a tons of Fun. I hope you will update it dude c:

Hey dude, I love your guide. I've been playing alot of skarner and rek'sai top lately with my mate, and he plays Vi jungle. The high damage and the ungodly amount of CC she provides is super good, as we can just completely shutdown someone, we literally can't lose a 2v2. Besides, her good early game also provides alot of support to our weak laning phase.

Anyway just wanted to know your thoughts on this synergy, maybe you'd like to add it to our good matchups. :)

Thanks for the guide, cheers.

I just have a question, in the Ap core (Lich Bane and Proto) why do we choose Lost chapter instead of Fiendish Codex?

Its just a example ap core, you can really use anything you'd like instead of lost chapter its just there as a guide.

what runes should i "usually take" or what when?

Hi, i have been skarner player since the first time i play LOL but i am a gold player. i am impressed there are another skarner player even challanger. really. also, your rune is same as me but i use shield instead of bone plating cuz it gives damage when i use W. but i admire you. you play skarner as a challanger. much better than me. i wish i could be like you XD.

Thanks for the kind words, A lot of runes work on Skarner I like bone plating into heavy trade lanes like Renekton, Riven but shield bash is very optimal as well.

Hey dude your guide is interesting but have you ever read that all skarner ablitys gets bursted by AP? Sure the Point of him is to get cdr and to stay tanky in this point i agree your build and honor you for your good work. But iam sure you will be better with my AP Stuff. To deal even more DMG. And well 5% cdr the way of quick cdr can be also a good startup. But 40% cdr is more than enough to aktivite his stuff often enough and also to roam with his basicly STUN E full AP ablity ;-). 5% rly doesnt matter at all on start better go on 10% for your level 10. The gameplay till level 6 will not be that diffrent. I dislike your Number 1, because maybe you got hyped and caryed a lot, but its defently not the best build at all.

Hey I appreciate your comment on my guide, I have tried AP in the past, but it just doesn't scale as nice as I would like it to, sure he can have a big shield but his damage is lowered compared to an AD build and less reliable than a tank build. The reason I like building more tank is so that I can be more reliable in the majority of my games.

Do you go for both spirit visage and shurelya's, if so do you think it's a waste having more than 45% cdr?

(2) |

A lot of items have 10% cdr added into them, especially a bunch of magic resist items its just unavoidable. I do not think it is a waste as spirit visage and shurelyas are not items that are built for cdr, but rather for their uses like the active or the 30% healing increase.
