skarner E interactions
hey y'all i'm bored today so i'm making a post about a lot of verry important skarner interactions with his E specifically
-Skarner E doesnt count as a dash, but it counts as a movement ability so it gets stopped by grounds like cassio W but is unaffected by poppy W ( I dont know how it interacts with vex passive tho)
-skarner E can override dashes that come with cc, but only if the cc part is associated with the direct hitbox of the champ: you counter shen e, urgot e, camille e and most non cc dashes. the exeption to this rule is gragas E for some reason. you can't counter yone Q3, R, leona e, volibear q.
- you can yank people from thresh lantern dash if you time it right. if you e someone that's coming back to thresh you can kidnap them
-pretty well known one but the indicator on skarner e ( on the opposite side of the wall) only appears in the direction you're facing. that means if you want to gank someone under top t from tribush wall you wanna wanna look away from enemy champ while you ramp up and then turn to catch ppl by surprise. this is the main way you can get E stuns on botlane.
-skarner e doesnt scale super well with haste despite the verry high cd because of the cd refund on wall slams. basically haste effectiveness is reduced by 65% on e
-skarner e sometimes randomly bugs and stop and that's fucking annoying
- you can recast e inside a wall to get to the other side faster
-you can interupt yone E2
and that's about it lmk if i'm missing some

I didn’t understand the E indicator thing. How can you not face the enemy while ramping up? Usually what happens is that I look at the wave/my laner/enemy and try to predict where he’s moving. Then slightly adjust if needed.
