Q mana cost buff - what he really needed. I mean it's not quite where it was when they like halved the cost on it, and it was basically free, but it's a good start.
Probably going to still want to go QWQE(can use it once between first buff to gain some time)
I think I'd skill Q>E(2-3 points)->max W. You need the slow earlier on in the game, but for midgame fights, especially out of the jungle you'd want a bigger shield.

These are potentially rather huge buffs. Q getting AS will possibly make his jungle quite a bit faster (will have to math against losing base AS), R is obviously a massive buff, and E will now actually be useful and mean that his pre-6 ganks are far more worthwhile.
I'm excited to get back to the scorpion, honestly. He was like my most played in S2, but I just stopped playing him.

am i going insane or did they originally increase skarners mana cost on q back and forth for a few patches? so acknowledging that he is now outclassed means they are implicitly accepting the amount of power creep in the game. which they said was a bad thing.
so they are fully aware buffing skarner instead of nerfing everyone else is a problem. gg.

It's funny because I've posted here for like thirty years on two accounts, but I only play once or twice a week so I'm not good enough to have regularly run into our good players, and I don't hang in liquidparty or it's spinoffs very often... so basically I've only talked to like, guitar? and a few other guys I see post here.

In general power levels have stayed about the same, it's just in specific areas (mana costs, mobility) has there been any noticeable creep.

I would say that the newer ADC tend to have poor to mediocre escapes.
1 poor escape 3 good escape
Jinx 1 Lucian 2 Varus 1 Draven 1 Graves 2
Tristana 3 Vayne 2-3 Ezreal 3 Corki 2-3 Miss Fortune 1 Ashe 1 Sivir 1-2
I think this is a good way to nerf ranged champions and make it feel like there is a point to playing melee ones. I find melees much harder to play.

I just sat here with a shit eating grin for a while waiting for you to notice.

Four new entries into the QQ hall of infamy. Remember to post your shit in the Shikyo thread, but I mostly only care if it is funny. No one actually reads the longer posts with a blow by blow description of your game (looking at you Alaric).

You're so used to skimming past my posts that you actually didn't notice I haven't posted in several weeks (not playing helps, I'm a genius). Teut already tried to make me think he reads me, I ain't getting fooled that easily!

I did notice actually, I was trying to bring you back. I'm like the meth dealer coming around to visit a customer who just got clean.
I thought for a little while that krnpandaman (or whatever his name is) was your smurf account, but he might be even worse than you.

I never implied anything of the such to be honest i skip most posts around here because the large majority are about pokemon or something and i only read stuff on interesting topics

It was a failed reference to some /w exchanged last time I spectated you, prob last week-end. I forgot an half and you probably forgot it all.
Short (I promise!) guide to detect Alaric-wannabees: - if the post doesn't make you scroll at least twice to pass it despite its vocabulary not exceeding 30 words, then it's not mine.

wtf Soniv you lied, Xerath is fucking fun as hell.

I'm actually feeling pretty smug about the skarner rework at the moment. It's been very satisfying seeing them acknowledge the same major problems with skarner's old kit that I pointed out ages ago in the old official GD forums. It was especially weird at the time because they were at war against kits they deemed "binary" on old champions (I think it was Kat at the time) and seemed completely oblivious to the issues a melee champ with natural short ranged permaslow and no reliable gap closer would have. The balance team must have tunnel visioned on old champions and never talked to the champ design team for the 6 months or whatever time it took to make skarner.
