Guide to Synergizing Renekton and Skarner

Tips for Playing as Renekton with Skarner

Cull the Meek drains an enormous amount of life when used in the middle of the fray. You can use this to bait opponents into thinking you are weaker than you really are.

Slice and Dice excels at harassing maneuvers. Slice in, follow up with another skill and then Dice back out to safety.

Cooldown reduction is especially good for Renekton, allowing him to both quickly build up and use his Fury.

Advice to Understand How Skarner Will Play

Impale is extremely powerful when you use it to position an enemy so your allies can attack them.

Basic attacks reduce the cooldown of Crystal Slash. Use them as often as possible for maximum damage.

Capturing Crystal Spires before attempting neutral objectives or team fights around them improves Skarner's performance in said fights dramatically.
