Remove the vision from skarners passive

Neither team should be able to gain vision over dragon/baron or the enemy jungle from stepping on objectives. WE HAVE WARDS FOR A REASON. You just added another reason to NOT buy them.

The vision lasts 1.5 seconds :o

But it does announce that you are in that area. Which means if skarner wants to counterjungle quickly and effectively he needs the stats the rocks provide, but obtaining them flags the enemy team to his presence allowing them to collapse on him.

The vision lasts for ~~10 seconds~~ 1.5 seconds. It's less control than what you get from killing a Rift Scuttler

Except the rift scuttler has a respawn time

...and you can't recapture a point after capturing it, not until the other team takes it.

That's how every single capture-point mechanic in every game ever has worked.

Hmmm, I didn't know that. Though there are still major errors with it. Like the DURATION of the vision, the fact that both skarners SHARE the same shrines (it would be really annoying to play as Skarner vs skarner, due to how they will BOTH very highly prioritize capturing them) and how they do not do ANYTHING in the teamfighting phase.

That's where the rest of Skarner's kit changes come into play. You know, like having a ranged slow that can stun, not needing to hit someone with 3 spells for a stun when he only has 2 offensive spells that apply stacks, the return of Skarner's flexible scaling...

Yeah I know that. I love most changes but the movement speed nerf and the new passive.

Skarner vs Skarner in rank. OP. Don't think your problem will exist in rank. You won't always have 100% mirror jungle in normals either. So there's also that.
