Skarner's new passive should apply to turrets/structures.

So I've played a couple of games with the new Skarner and I think this rework has some potential to it. I can see why people are skeptical about it but personally I enjoyed his new gameplay for the most part (even my first game where I couldn't use his passive due to a bug). His new passive really makes him feel like a "guardian" of sorts, that is he is incredibly deadly towards people that enter his domain, which is even more exciting when you realize he can use his ult to literally drag people into his domain. Not only that, the whole guardian concept goes hand in hand with his lore (which admittedly isn't much but whatever).

That said, I think Skarner could have a lot more potential by allowing his passive to activate around structures. As it currently stands Skarner's passive is completely useless in lane, which is a pretty notable concern. Yes Skarner is primarily a jungler, but that doesn't mean he should be pigeonholed into one role. Plus this goes even further in enforcing the whole guardian concept. Yes the current iteration of his passive establishes a domain for him, but unfortunately that domain consists of some random spots in the jungle. These aren't exactly bad, but I think have much more potential. I feel he should be able to assert his dominance over his own base, especially considering that pretty much every structure consists of giant magical crystals, which seems much more powerful than the spires scattered across the map.

Personally I could see a few different ways to implement this, one being to give allied turrets a permanent spire aura. Destroyed allied or enemy turrets could potentially leave behind spires as well. If that comes across as too strong then perhaps the aura could exist exclusively around inhibitors and/or nexus. If nothing else at least give Skarner a spire in his own base to give him some home field advantage.

I'd love to hear what people think of this idea and hopefully get some attention to this (and ideally see if Riot has any thoughts on the idea). So please, all feedback is welcome.
