I usually play Skarner solo top, and my build goes: Merc + Omen + Banshee + Atma + Triforce + Situational Last Item. Masteries: 0/21/9. He really needs the movement speed, it helps him a lot. Runes (don't flame me for this): Damage reds and quints (for much eaiser farming + early harass), armour yellow and Mr/lvl blues. For reds and quints though, you can pick from a very large variety. I've seen people pick health reds and quints and become extremely tanky early on.
