the subclass list describes him as a vanguard and ive read that it was a mistake to force skarner into a juggernaut role
he definitely needs a new passive that doesnt make me have to play dominion in order to not have to deal with an ssj skarner. friendly reminder that dominion was removed for a reason

Yeah, because Riot's just a small indie company that clearly can't afford to support more than one map/mode.

CEASE.
Skarner is and should be a Juggernaut, dammit. He was always a durable duelist. 'Tank' was never something he was described as, he was always a 'Fighter.' Juggernaut is the perfect class for him, they just did it wrong with the gimmicky spires.
If they gave him a new, non-spires related passive, he would be fine, because playing him as a Juggernaut right now is very fun. Rush Triforce into Cinderhulk, Dead Man's, and Tabi/Mercs, and he's unstoppable.
Please, do not make him a Vanguard. He should be a Juggernaut. It's what he's always been. Remember when his primary build was Triforce/Spirit of the Elder Lizard? That was a high-damage build, not a tank build.

I know that list. They also say nothing in it is set in stone and even they have a lot of internal conflict as to what classes some champions fall into.
Skarner is currently a Juggernaut, and he should be that way. That classification was never the issue with the Skarner rework. The gimmicky spires were.
