^I'm just going to go sentence by sentence

His clear speed is fine and isn't insanely mana relient if you don't spam both W and Q when you're killing a lone wraith or wolf.

He ganks warded lanes as well as Hecarim, Malphite, Maokai, Nasus, Nautilus, Nunu.. I'm just going to stop because the only champions you actually do over the wall ganks with are Fiddlesticks, Shaco, and Zac. Everyone else picks a gank angle attempts and if it doesn't work they try another route. You don't use your gap closer to jump over a wall to gank someone unless they're standing next to that wall.

Check out this useful item path. Machete > Philo > Boots > Kindlegem > SoAG > w/e else you want. People stopped buying Philo because they rush Spirit Stone, Philo is still easily accessable to junglers.

I have no idea what you're saying there

Someone flashes and your ult doesn't go on CD. That sounds better than J4 and Naut ult, people play those champions and are cool with blowing their ult for a flash CD. Skarner blows a flash and his ult is still up to gank, engage, or lock down someone in a fight.

@SimplyCactus I really don't know why he's not picked as frequently, I'm guessing it has something to do with the pro scene.
