@riot why do you hate skarner

khorney··2 votes·477 views

He is by far the weakest jungler with the crap clear times, the low damage, the lack of split push, the fact he is slow as shyt, the fact that he has like the worst gank potential and has 0 engage other then flash... before this crap rework he was perfect then you reworked him which was a crap rework ....ohhh man you gave him ad ratio who the fck cares but took away I dunno everything to be replaced with a trash passive and trash clear times. Why choose him over uydyr ever ? I say udyr because these 2 were pretty much identical. Now all he is is a ult bot congrats riot .

Mad because your main isn't at a constant 53%+ win rate at all times anymore?

"Skarner is garbage xD"

51.5% win rate. He's completely fine. He doesn't need to be the best S-tier jungler to be in an ok spot. Skarner "didnt do well for just one patch. Youcan few his winrate by patch here:

He's was floating around a 52-54% win rate for YEARS.

His clear times are decent enough, and his dueling is exceptionally good. Ganks post-6 are extremely strong, even without summoner 4.

But all of this is irrelevant anyways, because there's a single solitary reason that Skarner isn't played very often, and that reason is Hecarim .

udyr is a better version of skarner and skarner used to be good until they reworked him into the crystal spire rework. but ganks post 6 are not strong becuase he is still slow and his ganks are not reliant due to the fact you need to land e which is a slow missle speed.....anyother jungelr is better hten him liek all cons 0 pros

Post-6 with your W up using a good ganking route is one of the easiest ganks to pull off. Yeah ideally, you land E, stun THEN Impale and stun again, but in all honest, JUST impaling then stunning is sufficient.

you clearly have never played the rework before this one......its not even a debate was much better. again weaker version of uydr becuase he is slow, no reliable gank, 0 gap closer, 0 stun asisde from ult and the range is trrash on it, how are you not getting this

Well I do actually play Skarner because I love the Battlecast skin line, and his win rate substantiates my claim which is, he's a slightly worse Hecarim, but Hecarim is strong enough that this isn't even a bad deal.

I don't know why you keep comparing Skarner to Udyr when the only thing they have in common is the lack of a dash or blink. Hecarim and Skarner have far more parallels.
