No one knows what a Skarner is yet. Once people start figuring out that Skarner can't even damage the carry lategame, they'll stop peeling him off their carry and actually focus the real damage. In any case, there is no chance that a second movement speed boost, an autoattack stun, and a ranged slow is more healthy than a lone permaslow, and it's ridiculous to think this will still continue for much longer down the road. He's more feast or famine than he's ever been, and most of his success has been in that he doesn't have basically any benefit at all from level 9 onward, thanks to the crazy amount of crap his Q does,

Once the servers and Riot recognize that they made a jungle Renekton, he'll be nerfed into mediocrity once again, because at the moment he's a hold champion who can still deal loads of damage, thanks to every bit of his damage being on his Q. Once the spin-to-win niche mechanics fall off like they eventually did with Garen, he'll end up a 450 IP champ alongside him.
