Skarner has been brought up a lot this year, and it shows. From people trying to cope with the spire passive:

To requesting/suggesting skins:

To suggesting all KINDS of rework ideas:

But mostly, to the request of the removal of his spire passive, reverting to crystal venom skarner being by FAR the most popular request:

https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/mEJP1JYr-where-is-skarner https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/jg6BmMq4-skarner-is-still-waiting https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/general-discussion/3M3o8TN3-rework-skarner https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/li9itrap-i-cannot-get-over-the-fact-that-zac-got-reverted-before-skarner https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/Ig5vNtqp-possible-skarner-changes https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/AfjvbAKp-riot-why-these-skarner-changes https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/lYKOe7J3-post-that-didnt-age-well-skarner-edition-1-of-2 https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/WWANgTQA-post-that-didnt-age-well-skarner-edition-2-of-2 https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/u4P7p0YM-shaco-changes-revealed-when-is-it-my-turn https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-plus/A1I5czRs-my-thoughts-on-skarners-spires-long-post https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/KYwQGVPX-what-skarner-mains-really-want

And this is only from within one year and what I could dig up in a quick 10 minutes... there is probably more. In fact you can see if you go back even further (no more post links XD) that the number of different posters is slowly decreasing over the last 4 years...

This is just sad RIOT, Skarner is losing players, or you are losing Skarner players who have faith in you as a company. We are dwindling in numbers but it has all boiled down to one big thing:

The juggernaut rework for Skarner has FAILED. Its failed. You have said it yourselves. We have echoed the sentiment. We have waited patiently and watched ALL sorts of champions get reverts from changes you made that were deemed failures.

Please stop ignoring us Riot. We aren't going away, though some of us (like Skarner's brethren) are slowly dying...

You do realize NA isn't the only region that has opinions right? Whenever Riot makes balance decisions they need to consider feedback from other regions too. Not just NA.

They aren't ignoring anything, he has been mentioned several times to be on the Tier 1 VGU list, so they are constantly looking at him (amongst the other champions on the list). These things take time if you want them to turn out right.

Stop encouraging rudeness too
