Want to rage about your latest loss? Use the QQ thread. If you whine in GD, you'll get warned. ===== + Show Spoiler + If your [Stream] thread was moved to the general TL Stream subforum (aka SC stream land), find your thread and PM it to me and I'll move it back to LoL territory. I can argue with staff that moving a non-SC thread into a SC subforum is just asking for that thread to get buried. - Neo, Dec. 15 2011, 6:33 KST I have admin approval. I'll be moving LoL streams back to the subforum. Stream name will be based on Summoner name. - Neo 7:07 KST | ||

Skarner just has a more persistent threat. It's not that Rammus is bad, it's just that Skarner is so strong it's funny everyone wants to ignore him to ban Rammus. Erhm... calling Triforce "core" on Skarner is a pretty stupid idea. Yes, it is a good item - however, 4k gold on your first major item as a jungler is just not happening unless you get insanely fat insanely quickly. My standard build with him atm is philo -> Rageblade -> Defensive crap. Aegis and Randuins shine a lot on him. My "fuck yes I'll carry this shit"-build is more around Rageblade -> Triforce -> GA. But, yeah, imo "rushing" Triforce from the jungle is just as bad as rushing Warmogs from the jungle on most champs. It leaves you in this awkward spot where you finish your Triforce after AP/AD carries finish their first big items and leaves you kinda naked against them. - Much rather sit on Aegis+Rageblade than a solo Triforce in that spot. tl;dr: It's basicly the same deal as Wits End -> Defensive Crap on brodyr. | ||

His damages are high enough that ou can open glacial shroud + philo + hog and still be a threat offensively. He can carry he can tank he utilizes wriggles but doesn't need it... He's just too good atm Shush! He's still balanced, don't let anyone hear otherwise. | ||

Every team he was on lost at MLG providence, went 0-6 or something, and didn't do well at all at WCG either from what I saw. He's good at killing scrubs and bads, when people are actually paying attention, it's underwhelming | ||

Triforce is definitely NOT core on Skarner. It's a lategame damage item. Rushing Triforce makes you squishy, which is exactly the OPPOSITE of what Skarner is supposed to be. If you want early game damage, get Guinsoo's Rageblade. Then you can use that 2k gold you saved on defensive items, so you can actually do your damn job. | ||

Nice to see these discounted versions have the same strength as their regular quintessence counterparts. (3.33 Arpen, 1.89 Mpen, 1.5% movespeed, 26 hp) | ||

Skarner has (tied for) highest base damage in the game, so the proc is better on him than almost anyone. And MS + W and Phage with his Q is insane, no one ever escapes. Rageblade is good DPS if you can have 100% uptime on the target, which isn't always. Just my $0.02 | ||
