HideSide (EUNE) : Who should get rework and who another one? Shahamut (NA) in > Who should get rework and who another one? Skarner. I have made so many threads about this over the last 4+ years it hurts. Tldr- spires area terrible gimmick that locks Skarners stats into the jungle in a way that is more feast or famine than ever before while offering nothing in "premiere objective control" which was their stated goal on implementation. The spires are team reliant and grant both vision and gold to enemy team as well as yours. No personal agency. Is currently reliant on 40-45% cdr unfun stun combo (E>>R>>stun>>E>>stun) to be a relevant threat. https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/cEWbm3hn-new-preseason-new-skarner-long-post Something in this vein would be great.

Can Cloud Drake be focused on something other than ult buffs/cooldowns? Why can't it be the "freedom of movement" drake? Cloud Drake: Grants +3% MS per drake and 5% Tenacity. Cloud Drake Soul: Gain a barrier that stops the first CC on you, refreshes after 15 seconds out of combat. While the barrier is up, double the MS bonus. Thats just off the top of my head, but whatever. Just something else than cooldown reduction and ult buff. Go to comment

IVSakenz (NA) : Yas is a very weird champ... Personally have tried to play him and I completely suck with him. His whole toolkit just seems foreign and clunky. But then other people play him, and he dominates.. Shahamut (NA) in > Main Problem With Yasuo That is because he takes time and skill to pull off. Especially in the modern state of the game, Yasuo is not a "1v9" champion. There is too much damage combined with too much cc, and bruisers will absolutely crap on him early game. Yasuo HAS carry potential, I am by NO means calling him weak, or unplayable or anything stupid like that, but his kit is balanced and fair. It was a lot when he first came out, but he was nerfed accordingly, and newer champions outshine him by miles in what they are capable of. Go to comment

She shouldn't have as much damage for how much utility she has. Period. Self/Team heal, global shield/dmg, team stealth, aoe root, gold generation. Then you want to add infinite stacking AD, bonus range/crit chance? Crit chance that you cant even waste by accident because excess turns to life steal?

Lucas Fehrwight (NA) : Supports right now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Shahamut (NA) in > Supports right now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think its weird that new "supports" (gold efficient utility champions) also need to be carries... (assassins/marksmen)... specifically, Pyke and Senna. Senna will scale indefinitely with range and AD. Getting her stacks is not that hard either. Pyke has a ton of safety and utility, but also has a resetting AoE execute. Not true damage, an execute. Cant shield it. What happened to trade offs? Playing a damage focus support used to be risky if you didnt dominate lane phase, because you wouldn't have items later. Why couldn't people appreciate carrying games through means that wasnt damage? Utility, initiation, VISION... sure this stuff is still in the game, but damage right now trumps all of it. Have lots of cc? Doesnt matter if there is no damage to follow up. You will still die. Have tons of damage? You only need a tiny bit of cc to obliterate people. See Qiyana lvl 3 one rotation her lane opponent with only a single undodgeable root. Go to comment
Tin Obliterates (EUNE) : Tier 1 runes were good for when you were starting out though, super cheap and at least it was something until you could get all the tier 3 runes you need. Shahamut (NA) in > The old Rune System wasn't perfect, but it was better than this. I just think there should not have been any "tiers" of runes, and they needed to be free from the get go. Some of the runes that are more niche or less commonly used could have been locked behind levels so there wasnt so much at once. I think the idea of masteries being champion specific, and ways to alter the way you play THAT specific champion (like odyssey) would be much more manageable and interesting. Go to comment

If you are only "assuming" then you dont know that for sure: How I read it, is he gets bonus stats in place of his skill points. Which means he still has base stats and growth. Will know for sure once he is out, but I HIGHLY doubt that he will have no base stats or base scaling. SPECIFICALLY because it was not explicitly stated. Which RIOT would certain make sure to do.

WoonStruck (NA) : Personally I'm fine with the current Skarner. Building bruiser early doesn't feel bad because you'll feel just as squishy if you fall behind as tank. {{item:1400}} {{item:3078}} {{item:3053}} {{item:3742}} {{item:3194}} {{item:2422}} is exactly how I want to play skarner. You don't feel gimped outside of your spires, and inside them you're a god. If he really needs anything, slow resist on W, as you suggested, would be a fine buff. He has all the tools he needs to succeed as he currently is. He's just not exciting to play for a lot of people. If he gets reworked, what I want most is W CD reduced by AAs again. If E got returned to a self-heal instead of CC for dueling potential, then entire kit's CDs going down with AAs. Hell, with original Skarner, they could have kept the slow on his Q and just added a per-target CD that scales down (if at all) with levels (or CDR?). I would have been completely fine with that. OG Skarner's E was often regarded as 'useless', but that wasn't the case. He was just too mana hungry early and it did very little at low ranks and without the additional EHP of resists. Once you started putting points in E late game, you had incredible staying power in fights due to how often you could spam E and W in combination with all of your resists. For those of you that don't remember his old E, even the wiki page doesn't list the old version. >Fracture (E) Skarner summons a blast of crystalline energy which deals damage to enemies struck and marks them. Any further damage dealt to marked targets by Skarner will allow him to consume the mark to heal himself. Shahamut (NA) in > New preseason, new Skarner? (Long Post) You could have the current Skarner without the spires, and you wouldn't be locked into only playing the jungle or only building full tank in higher levels of play. The only major changes that NEEDS to happen is Skarner needs a new passive and that power put back into his kit. My suggestion just also adds a new layer of paint to the kit in order to help make him feel more modernized. Go to comment
Avicou (NA) : I really like this. I think there should be another component to the passive (although I couldn't say exactly what), but at this point anything is better than Crystal Spires. Extra objective mini-games are not something League needs. His other abilities that are functionally similar are fine, but I could stand to have a bit more added for the purpose of skill expression. Probably make his ult more like WW's. Up the cast range a bit, make Skarner dash into melee range to grab them, then dash out to devour the target or to reposition to maximize the damage you get off at the end. Shahamut (NA) in > New preseason, new Skarner? (Long Post) Thanks for the support! I and many others have never liked the idea of making Skarner's ultimate a skill shot, and I definitely dont like the idea of adding any dashes into his kit. Skarner being not incredibly mobile is his biggest counter point. Go to comment
