This may be one voice in a hundred, but I really feel like they should make the duration of his ult scale with level, so that it doesn't last as long in the laning phase. I generally play "safe" carries such as ez or kass, i.e. champs with fast escapes and the like, but with the combination of flash and his ult, especially considering the delay that can cause one to waste their own escape mechanism, I don't think there is a single move in the game better for killing someone under their turret. If the skarner is any amount of good, at least in my eyes, there isn't a single thing most champs can do to either prepare (wards and grouping with teammates are both scarce early game) or react to a skarner ult. I've seen games where an AP carry at mid will be at full hp under their turret, where skarner will flash over a wall grab them (sometimes at the expense of a flash) pull them out and kill them with the other carry. For the most part, this does not seems as unfair from midgame on, but I really feel like there needs to be a point where no matter what champion you are playing, you should have some defense against this type of thing.
