It doesn't fix his main problem. Skarner not pure main stat type of champion. He need many thing for him to reach his full potential. And he is very very weak at early game.

With removal of Armor/MR rune. Other dmg dealer champion can out perform him at early game. And they will stomp you so hard that you can't even return from that point again.

Resolve tree can be quite useful but with only one problem. He doesn't get any ad from that rune. meaning his damage gonna be even worst than before. Skarner as good scaling but terrible base damage. His main damage source are base on total AD and it also scale with attack speed. His W scale with HP but it's terrible cuz it doesn't had any base number.

Change of rune stat are main reason why many many special type champion has been destroy.


 * Special type is what I consider champion that need a little bit of many stat to perform well. And those stat doesn't have any item in the game that make for them. For example Aatrox(No need for AD and critical, only need AS + Tanky . as for damage he can get that with on-hit item) , Tahm kench(again has no use of AD . only AS+Tanky) , Skarner (his Q has 3 scale AD/AP and AS , also His W need all of those tank stat , Also his R need move speed meaing he need 7 stat to suit his need while other tank or bruiser only need 3-4 , Hp Armor/MR and a lttle bit of AD or AP ).

So basically. He deal no damage at early game, Game end too fast for him to farm up , Change of come back exp from jungle camp , His gank pattern are linear and out date(compare to how many jump/dash/blink skill champion now a day have) , QSS destroy only reason why pick him , Those spire are his main weakness. Funny enough even if Skarner stand inside spire area, Many many champion can still otu trade him even in the early game because he deal little to non damage against enemy.
