A Skarner buff to help him out

Jimmy Rustles·Apr 4, 2019·1 votes·1,383 views

As we all know, unless you don't know who Skarner is since he barely exists, Skarner has a pretty bad playrate and is forgotten the next hour any time he is mentioned

After his last wave of changes, the spires were made a bit better but no longer showed up on anyone's map, meaning you could no longer see when a spire was captured

I say, with the fact the spires are for Skarner, he should still have vision of them on his map, and only him

Won't make him OP or anything, but would at least give him a bit of help as he can keep track of people a bit better

As Skarner m7, I would like he to have a better Q, more cooldown, more power.

But what about the sweet carpal tunnel sensation of playing him

I've never been a fan of the spires at all, and feel like with their removal entirely he'd be better off as a champ. It's a dumb gimmick that Riot experimented with on a champion that didn't really need it, and while it's nice to not be immediately given away when you cap a spire to clear a camp, it still is hardly a perfect system.

If Riot were to keep spires, my suggestion would be to make them function more like monster-specific wards. You could see the camps, but not any champions in their radius. You could spot when an invade was happening, or when you no longer had vision, but you need to actively put effort into scanning them to see which camp is under attack. That, or they need to retain their markers on the map, but have a true neutral coloration so that you know where to pan your map towards to check. As it is it's not hard to remember their location, but it's still frustrating when there's no real marker to their exact placement.
