League of Legends (LoL) Question: What is your opinion on the new skarner?

He was playable, until they moved the slow to his E. Now his slow is on a 14 seconds CD -.- Trash

I prefer the old Skarner greatly to the new one. Maybe that's just because I got used to the older Skarner before I tried the new one. I'm expecting some tweaks to Skarner in the coming patches, which will hopefully make him a little bit better, and more viable.

He doesn't seem that bad to me. He might have some residual problems holding him back from the upper tiers of junglers but that doesn't mean he's unplayable. He does a ton of damage with Spirit of the Elder Lizard and Sheen and they fixed his ultimate, which was the main problem that killed his popularity.

I used to play skarner a lot when he was considered strong and his core gameplay elements are still there. The only thing that's worse about this rework is the loss of permaslow, which doesn't have much counterplay. He's still very mobile, tanky and a great duelist with a fast jungle clear.

Barely playable before the update.

Now he's completely unusable.

Worse than the previous Skarner imo. Just feels like his kit doesn't have any synergy (for me, at least) anymore and that he is supposed to be played like pre 30 lvls play Lee Singah
