Things that can be fixed to buff him:
 * Crystal Slash remake: I honestly think it was a bad move to have to hit something first to activate the slow. I think it should just be at the ready. Too many runners lost because I had to hit a minion before I could start slowing my opponent. If there are no minions, good luck trying to catch up. And, also, buff the slow by 5%, so it maxes at 50%.
 * Exoskeleton: Since Skarner relies on this for a great deal of his AS (and the fact that you lose benefits when the shield is broken), it should scale with AP and AD. This will, for sure, encourage people to finally build hybrid.
 * Fracture: I have no idea. I don't think it's OP or UP.
 * Impale: 1.5 seconds is a good amount of time. 2 seconds is the cap I would allow (not trying to make this guy OP). Also, I think Skarner should activate his exoskeleton shield (not the AS or MS buff) benefit (meaning, get the benefit but the skill doesn't go on CD) when he uses Impale so he can take a few hits and pull a carry from the enemy team without much repercussion.
