Key Insights

When Skarner is within a team-controlled Spire, procs
E
's mark, or casts
R
, he gains bonus movespeed, attack speed, and mana regen.
If
Q
hits an enemy, subsequent
Q
casts deal bonus magic damage.
Auto attacks reduce
Q
's cooldown by 0.25 seconds, increased to 1 second vs. enemy champions.
W
's bonus movespeed doubles over time.
Strengths
Excels at skirmishes since
Q
can be spammed over and over, especially while
P
's bonuses are active.
A good catch with
R
can singlehandedly win teamfights.
Synergizes well with
Turbo Chemtank
,
Winter's Approach
,
Dead Man's Plate
,
Force of Nature
, and
Gargoyle Stoneplate
. Can opt for
Stridebreaker
,
Sunfire Aegis

Weaknesses

R
has a longer cooldown of 120 seconds at rank 1. Once used, his strength diminishes in fights.
Directly countered by anyone who purchases
Quicksilver Sash
