From watching this, I hope you learn that you should never give up and you just might end up winning. This is a good guide on how to count draven as well. Enjoy.

......Damn.

Clearly I've been playing Skarner wrong because that was amazing. I was under the impression wriggles on skarner was bad, but without it you wouldnt have won that. o_o

Wriggles is only bad on Nasus. If you rush it on Skarner it helps him to counter jungle even better. I usually build wriggles boots sheen and glacial shroud a fast as possible. Randuins is important for a lot of reasons, but if you're not into buying hog, selling wriggles late game gives you a bit of help toward buying it.

Lately I build 3 of the gp5s, sell philosopher stone and avarice blade (unless the support doesn't build SR for sine reason) and up grade to omen if the game goes long enough. I build for offense first though. Sheen/Frozen is a must on him if you want to win exchanges

dps skarner is much better with my build your shield is huge and you still have resists and 3000 health

but you have 1.27 attacks speed I believe, and 500 ap and almost 200 ad, and you heal for so much that your just as tanky this is my build that I have gotten Quadra kills with, much better then straight tank, you start with clothe and 5 pots for jungle, then get ninja tabi get vampiric scepter then get sheen then gunblade , then nashors,then lichbane then a tank item, then deathcap
