Season 14 is well on its way and as such we are getting a preview of what's to come in the future. Check out what's on the Live Server with Patch 14.7. Skarner is finally coming out with this patch!

You might also want to check out the huge amount of changes that we already got in League of Legends Patch 14.6 to have better context for the 14.7 changes. 

LoL Patch 14.7: Skarner Rework Revealed

The Skarner VGU has been announced years ago, and it's finally here. Riot completely changed how Skarner works and even parts of his story.

The whole champion has been modernized and as such we got a different kit and reworked skins. The new Skarner is less point and click and features more skill expression.

Skarner VGU: His New Abilities

Passive - Threads of Vibration

• Skarner's attacks, Shattered Earth, Upheaval and Impale apply Quacking to enemies. Enemies with three stacks of Quacking take % Max HP damage over time.

Q - Shattered Earth / Upheaval

• Skarner rips a rock out of the ground and uses it to empower his next three attacks with bonus damage, range and attack speed. His third attack slams the rock into his target, slowing and dealing significant bonus damage, ending the effect.
  
• Skarner may re-cast Upheaval and throw the rock as a projectile that explodes on the first enemy hit, dealing the same damage and slow, ending the effect.

W - Seismic Bastion

• Skarner gains a shield and slams into the ground, releasing a shockwave that damages and slows nearby enemies.

E - Ixtal's Impact

• Skarner charges forward, ignoring terrain and grabs the first enemy champion or large monster he collides with. He may then carry them a short way, damaging and stunning them if they collide with the terrain.

R - Impale

• Skarner impales up to three enemy champions, damaging and suppressing them. Skarner gains bonus movement speed for a short time and carries them with him until the end of the effect.
