Why is skarner so bad

So what's up with skarner? I know he's been in a rough spot for a long time but holy cow I didn't realize how bad he was. Played a game last night and built him fairly aggressively but still couldn't pump out any damage. What's the secret I'm missing with him?

Go back and watch msi. They used him quit a bit and try to mirror what they did.

His Q deals almost no damage. I suggest not going damage at all on him, except maybe a triforce and then full tank. Make sure to get some ms items so you can catch people out of position, and feed them to their teammates.

His ult is so powerful. Be tanky and annoying. Buy frozen mallet so you can get on people and keep them there for your team to fuck up.

His R is actually pretty good. But seems like he’s become an R-bot. The rest of his kit just seems so benign. I noticed he seemed somewhat dominant 1v1 after the trinity force power spike. But after that, he drops off like a rock and I wasn’t able to 1v1 anyone. It’s hard to believe he can survive in the jungle and not get murdered by a khazix or a rengar. He needs some tlc real bad.
