Aatrox was quite popular just before his rework because they finally balanced him a few months before deleting him. As a Skarner main, I think his rework looks fine, losing his crystal motif is meh, but not a deal breaker. The one thing I'm worried about is that it looks like he'll be weaker top lane, which is my preferred position for old Skarner, since he loses his E-R-E cc chain and the thing that I can't turn while using my ult anymore(which would have been a nice setup for the new E)
