Haha! Well, I guess you'll just have to offer them free Dark Candy Fiddlesticks to get them in now

I understand why it would be an issue for blitz, however, why would it be for skarner exactly ? Skarner is allowed to move with its prey, wouldn't a synergy with Tresh create gameplay ? Do you see it as being OP or anti-fun ?

I think the problem was that it made it far too easy for Skarner to drag his target through The Box just as the suppress was wearing off, leaving the victim stuck with a 99% slow, awaiting the knockback and hook. Skarner and Thresh are still a devastating combo, but now they have to but themselves at risk to assassinate someone, instead of flash-impale-lantern and their carry is in the middle of your team.

So, what happens if Nautilus presses the lantern while hooking?

Is it a "box" van?
