If you have an entire team made of AoE players and you're up against Skjold, then you should probably know better. In any case, you'd just have land your abilities away from him (just as you wouldn't autoattack {{ci|Rammus). There are much more severe denial abilities around, including {{ci|Tristana}}'s ultimate. You're also comparing Skjold's ultimate to an ability that can be used at the very least every 14 seconds. Of course the damage return on the ultimate is going to be higher, otherwise it wouldn't be much of an ultimate. Additionally, unlike {{ci|Rammus}}, Skjold has no means of increasing his damage resistance through abilities, and so would die very quickly if focused on as hard as you'd suggest, even when in full tank build. Furthermore, if you get the ADC to focus on you completely during two separate one-second taunts (and survive by the end), then you've likely done your job properly, so it'd be a shame to have your ultimate not do much.
