Tips Against Rengar in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Farmer Cleetus says “Rengar will just clap you away when he's 1 item above you, if you even go Rhaast you're dead. Might have changed due to the durability patch, I sadly see barely rengar players, so I won't change this threat level at all.”
ItsAydam says “I would normally consider rengar a minor threat because after level 6 he should completely get stomped in this matchup. The reason he's major is that he wins every single fight around the bushes pre 6. He can fully heal twice and burst you with full stacks. Make sure to ward and not fight him even if you have to give a camp or two pre 6.”
ThatsTheGodyr says “Makes a lot of Chaos. Esspecially botside. You can 1v1 him easily if even. Try to focus on Topside/Mid and Invading Topside. If possible: Try to countergank botside but don't waste your time”
Nik7857 says “Was a really bad matchup during 12.9 and is naturally a counter to you. Very hard to play against and you can never 1v1 him really. One tricks will ruin your day. I suggest banning you run into Rengars often or know a OTP is in queue.”
NegativePhoenix says “Early game is a bit more easier but late game is his. Most Rengars build first strke and with the burst he has late game already you'll get one shot when he picks you out. If you can, fight him away from brush in 1v1s so he can't keep hopping on you. If he ults try to W him the second you notice where he's jumping from and Q away unless he's super weak and relies on his ult to get any real kill pressure.”
Simple Shawn says “[TL;DR - CONTEST AT ANYTIME BUT DON'T TAKE A BIG EMPOWERED Q WITHOUT W ON EARLY. TAKE ORACLE LENS FOR HIS R AND TO FACECHECK. YOU 1v1 HIM AFTER EARLY POWERSPIKE, AFTER 1 ITEM IF HE HAS FULL PASSIVE.]
[Rengar is a very powerful assassin, he can literally oneshot your squishies in a fraction of second. However, he's orientated into AAs and so he's not good versus you. Just be aware, his empowered W cancels your E taunt and heals him a lot, he can magically survive if you manage to catch him and set him low.]
[ASSASSIN CHAMPION]”
Scratchyerik says “If he has his empowered W or able to quickly cycle to it its easy for him to just outdamage and outsustain you if he has Conqueror and Goredrinker. However you still outscale him and will be unable to assassinate you due to your E.”
HadesxLH says “Antes Rengar ja era um counter direto do viego devido ao seu powerpike midgame, após seu rework isso se tornou ainda mais evidente, devido ao fato de rengar ter o mesmo estilo de viego (early um pouco fraco, mid forte e late mediano) rengar pode vencer viego em literalmente qualquer momento do jogo oque torna dificil o combate contra o proprio sem o auxilio do seu time, nessa match up oque eu recomendo e trabalhar no erro de seu adversario e puni-lo sempre que possivel oque pode facilitar uma kill ou ate mesmo vantagem de CS, abuse dos ganks antes do lv 6 ja que mesmo os seus nao sendo tao fortes os de rengar sao mais fracos ainda, jogar para countergank tambem pode ser uma boa pedida e certifique-se de nao deixa-lo a frente pois caso isso aconteça sem aliados ao seu lado será praticamente impossivel derrota-lo ”
SunLongGod says “if he fed, you can fled. Your Q or W can avoid getting 1 shot combo like QEWQ, which can make him miss his E and W or reduce his damage. after ward you can go all in. You can buy Hourclass to annoy him tho.”
NegativePhoenix says “This cat is a literal counter to Evelynn in so many ways. He can just invade you and not have any issues doing it if he feels like he can get away with it. Not to mention he can just heal back all his burst with his W and his ult gives him true vision on you even if you're invisible, so there's no point in running from him if his ult is up.”
quinn adc says “Play the lane away from bushes. Ideally, shove him under tower or let him shove so he can't bush cheese you.
He wins if the lane is neutralized.
If he is in bush, E his Q leap, and then when he walks back to the bush, Q him before he enters so that he can't get the second leap off.
This combo is essential to take good trades against him, so only walk near the bush with your E up.
If you go even in this lane it is a big win for you because you outscale him if he isnt crazy fed.
If rengar cant one shot you post 6, you hard win the fight.
Thats why i like bone plating and plated steelcaps in this matchup.”
duowithdeath says “Kha’Zix but a bit easier to play vs, he can easily pick you before team fights in your own jungle with R, recommend buy zhonyas 2nd as it hardcounters him.”
RLluka says “Just a disgusting annoying champ the way to beat it is just be ahead and have anti heal in your team cause you will not kill him if you dont.”
Shro says “Rengar is a major threat for Morde due to his incredible AD burst, but also because of his ability to remove your Ult through his empowered abilities.”
IamFafa says “Wins before you reach ur mythic, but then hard loses, so make sure you dont die to him while he invades your red. Great counter against rengar is ninja tabis and ulting before he gets 4 stacks of ferocity.”
evil in says “Rengar is one of the hardest matchups for Evelynn. He can easily invade you early game and expose your position with his R. Try to avoid taking risks early game and ask your team to ward your jungle.”
Boptimus says “Sit back Level 1 and let him do whatever he wants. Once you hit level 2 you can E him if he tries to leap on you. Make sure you stay far away from bushes when your E is on cooldown. Eventually most Rengars will just stop trying to engage on you and start clearing and roaming, so make sure you communicate with pings whenever Rengar leaves lane.
Pick a Seeker's if you're struggling.”
Majd1 says “Rengar can be beaten easily if you know how to play against him. It is very important that you do NOT path into Rengar which means that you want to path in a way where you avoid him and make sure that he is on the opposite of the map that you are. Rengar's strongest stages are in the early game because he will win every duel in the early levels and you do NOT want to facecheck him or get invaded level 3 on your second buff because if you do he will be an extreme threat for the rest of the game and take over the game. Make sure to watch his ferocity stacks and get an early Zhonya's/Seeker's Armguard to help you survive.”
AutisticBabyLvL10 says “He can be threatening pre 6, but after lvl 6 you should hard win any fight as long as he isnt fed and you have Plated steelcaps”
ISwearImNotPolish says “This matchup used to be ever so slightly Kha' zix sided, but things have changed sorta. Avoid fighting him around bushes and build resistances to last you into the late game because he can regen all your damage with double W. If you do beat him, watch out for the event to get your fourth evolution. However, a decent Rengar will know how to pick his fights and where to fight you, so your best shot is assassinating him before he can react.”
Kat_Alien says “This big mad cat can see you even thru your Q. Only way to survive his R is to stay with your support such as lulu and try to survive that burst. Buy Guardian Angel or if you are going ap build that sweet zhonya. Good luck with hiding when he can smell your stinky cheese.”
YoungTact says “Can W His pounces but because he has a cleanse he can still outplay you. Your early game is a lot stronger in the jungle so look to out-tempo him through either invades or early game ganks. For rengar top it probably goes up to Major as the champion is a lane kingdom champion but you will most likely be more useful in teamfights. ”
DETDERT says “The battle of the nemesis. Kha'zix should always look for an early lead against rengar. Since rengar players, almost always full clears. Kha zix can find his moment, by shorten his pathing, and look for an early gank or an invade on rengar. Once khazix gets a lead, it should be unplayable for rengar.”
Novacane542 says “Assassins are a huge problem for karthus. Karthus has no escape and rengar can pick him off easily. He will look to counterjungle early so be prepared.”
Limaads says “Note: I probably have a different view on this matchup than other players. If I see a Rengar I dodge. The healing, gapclose, damage and fact Rengar is most played by experienced one tricks is enough to drive me away from ever playing against this matchup. Rengar actually scales very nicely with his passive and build paths this season so you can't reliably outscale like you would other junglers. Extremely hard to one shot him even if you reach your item spikes because of his grey health. The only advantage you have is that you have a lot more gank threat pre 6 but after that it's extremely easy for him to get fed off overextended teammates with his ult.”
Asternova says “RUNES: Dark Harvest. Phase Rush if needed.
ITEMS: Zhonya's Hourglass. Plated Steelcaps if his team is AD.
GAMEPLAY SUMMARY: Bush is literally all of Rengar's gameplay, ward them, don't walk around them if you're not sure if it's safe. After-6 he doesn't need bushes to jump on you, so stay near your team and protect whoever he might jump into.”
Jksons says “he can invade you after his 3 camps so you need to ward bush behind your red or behind blue
bush on river entrance after clearing 3 camps”
Agatrium says “If he jumps on you, Q him, then follow him with E. Don't stand in the bushes to fight him, as that's what he wants. Let him come to you, then chunk him down. ”
Janooobi says “If Rengar gets an early lead he can become a problem so avoid him early and counter gank where possible, if you can avoid him getting an early lead you will be able to deal with him mid to late game”
DuckT says “You can counter him, but if he's good, he'll run tempo and jump before you can W his brush. It's really just a skill-check for the Rengar. You can avoid immediately dying. Don't just feed him W healing. He can heal 100% recent damage taken in the last 2.5s if he jumped at you, and 50% if he jumped with W. Don't waste damage, and you can take him down.”
Ferra says “Rengar is a good champion in synergy with ivern, but on the other hand he is an equally strong champion against you. He can make full use of your W and use ivern bushes as a boost to jump on you and reach you faster. Additionally, Rengar is able to deal a good amount of damage in a short time.”
Consolo says “RENGAR IN 2022 LOL. He can't kill you early, and if he isn't smurfing your team shouldn't die too often his ganks pre-6. Post 6, try to match him and when he uses his SUPER VISIBLE ULT just walk toward the team member that's marked. He can't do his combo if hes stunned midflight lmao. ”
FacetLOL says “You can kill him almost every game at his blue buff regardless of side.
Start at your blue buff then do Blue>Gromp> Wolves> Red buff and run into his Blueside alongside midlane and place a box in his box and kill him while hes double clearing blue/gromp”
Scythe Prince says “he will invade you in early game as he is stronger in early game Do not fight him you can beat him as shadow assassin if you are fed. Build Executioner's Calling and play for your team.”
ShuffleTM says “Fique ligado nos Stacks dele na hora de comprar troca, não exite em suar ignite quando for lutar com ele, ele pode healar muito no W. Se ele não tiver muito na sua frente você consegui ganhar 1v1 facilmente, gosto de fazer cutelo nessa matchup.”
OTP Toxin says “This is a fun lane to play. Always be in the low parte of the lane, away from the bushes, he will be going there and jumping for the minions, the trick is: Pay atenttion to the health of YOUR minions, so you can know where he will jump, then you punish him in every jump he does. After 6, plant 1 mushroom in easch of the tri-bush and you will make him cry. :D”
Zehmox says “you always track him down with your tremor if he ults and your ADC is very thankful for you if you prevent RENGAR from jumping on your ADCs great peeling will make rengars life miserable. ”
Zero macro says “Rengar has an Anti - Assasin kit with his W. Even when he tanks our combo early/mid game we will still lose it. Try to avoid him, focus on farming, counterganking and gank.”
SimpleShadow says “Rengar is an easy matchup. Time you're W for his R and bush jump. He can cancel your E stun and W ground with empowered W. This matchup should be really easy, try to counter gank him. ”
DarthMagusLoL says “fk this champ also. Literally designed to hunt for you, EVEN WHEN YOU'RE INVISIBLE AND SUPPOSED TO BE UNTARGETABLE. If rengar ults, run.”
Abes_o7 says “There are some chamions on jungle that will oneshot you and you won't notice what killed you, rengar is one of them. You have to rely on your team to not give rengar his stacks.”
Elekktro says “After Rengar's mini rework, but overall massive buff Rengar is a major threat to Viego. While there are ways to itemize against Rengar, a good Rengar player will run Viego over. I find it incredibly difficult to ever win this matchup.”
J98TheGreat says “Rengar is someone who if you want to 1v1 you try to do it in an area with no bushes in the river early, or else you want to let him have those scuttles. If you manage to kill him with or without a teammate before 4 minutes things will be great for you. This matchup is fair, you just need to do your best to counter-gank him and delay him stacking his passive on you and your teammates. Taking ghost can risk this, but it is still better for you than flash and you will need to play with that in mind.”
Brosinex says “Él puede dispararte y si se vuelve más violento, básicamente se acaba. La curación y el daño que tiene el magullador rengar es una locura y, por lo general, puede matarte incluso antes de que tengas la oportunidad de lanzar la habilidad definitiva. Quédate con tu equipo y estarás bien”
King Fidd says “Once you have zhonyas he can't oneshot you. You can also fight him early outside of bushes. Fiddlesticks effigies will block his ultimate vision, and he can't jump in or else he dies to your fear.”
Da Mastah says “This matchup really depends on how good the rengar is. Make sure to ward and meditate his burst. A good rengar will hold his abilities when ulting you to bait your w, so make sure to watch his animations carefully. You should be able to beat him easily if you get a lead, just be sure to ward your jungle for early invades.”
Jrift says “Cringe champ because Blue Kayn escape means nothing. also can CC which is not good for Blue Kayn. On top of that he gets more map pressure than you”
The Elysian1 says “ Not a big deal. Eclipse is doing the work for you. Overall just play for six , and don't get picked in the early game. When he jumps on you , get in stealth then try to run , or one shot him. But do not get in stealth while his R is active , since his Ult reveals you.
”
Sandor Clegane98 says “Everybody fears this mitten in the toplane,but seriously though,you have the upper hand in every aspect of the laning phase,literally punish him when he goes in to trade you or farm.
Dshield or Dblade.”
Dreamycake says “An experienced Rengar player will try to shut you down before you get your form. Survive until the form and you'll be fine. Beware the bushes!”
Citric says “Rengar will kill you if you run into him in the jungle with lower health. Snowballs hard against Shyvana. Not likely to invade early but be ware while doing scuttle because he may be in the bush waiting for you. Can also bring ignite and challenging smite to duel him if you need.”
LambWolf says “Watch out for rengar at early game. Don't face check any bushes. Try to just avoid him if you are alone. If you build galeforce, you can use it when he jumps on you to not let him completely one shot you with double q.”
NixLychee says “Good Rengars are terrifying. Bad Rengars are pathetic. Fight him early and try to get your laners to collapse on him in the Jungle to set him behind early. Do NOT let him snowball. Beware of bushes.”
Riealone says “Be careful on your ganks and jungle clear, fighting him might be hard. He has all to counter you before your Mythic spike. Insane damage, heal, slow, root and great mobility in bushes”
Polarshift says “Ninja Tabi's will make it harder for him to oneshot you (if you're ahead or even).
Make good use of your smokescreen; usually you want to use it on top of yourself and dash out of it so he has no vision of you. You can also cancel him from jumping on you by throwing your W under him when hes in a bush.
Remember that you must try your best to keep your Grit stacks while clearing and invading so that you can outduel him with the extra armor you gained from it.
You should win lvl 2 fights if he walks into you without stacks (be careful of ignite rengars though), fight's without bushes in the early game, invades from him (since you have Grit stacks) and it should get a lot easier after you get your Plated Steelcaps and DD.”
Veralion says “He will almost certainly look to level 3 invade, so be careful. Rengar loves to target the enemy jungler as there are tons of bushes to make setting up kills extremely easy. If you get matched up against a skilled one, you will have to treat every bush in your jungle with a healthy amount of paranoia. Make sure to ignite with your combo to cut his big W heal. This setup can deal with him on even footing. If he gets a lead and plays properly you won't be able to play the game. If being chased down, path away from bushes, and if necessary ult/flash a section of wall that won't give him an easy bush jump on the other side if he follows you. Shadow your carries later on in the game and make sure nobody is ever alone. Try to use your ult right when he lands to interrupt his one-shot combo and give your carry the little bit of distance they need to escape. ”
Doubtfull says “This match up can be tricky. Take Conqueror for sure and try to bully him in the early game. He likes to lane gank so if you have a lane that is pushed in, make sure that you warn them about this. If you can get wards in his jungle to spot out his path, that will go a long way. ”
nZk01 says “Bruiser rengar is super impossible to deal with you cant actually deal damage to him and he will jsut fist you, try to invade him while hes clearing with ignite then maybe you can do something, otherwise very hard”
Tormentula says “Rengar is typically a counterpick to Elise, but atm he's in a pretty weak state so you can outperform him in ganks and invades lately. The main thing to worry about is his 4 stack ferocity, as that means he can cleanse your Cocoon with W, and recover half of the damage you bursted him for rendering you useless with all your main abilities on cooldown. If you catch him under 4 ferocity, you can burst him, but if he's on 4 ferocity, you should wait for him to spend it so he doesn't have the big heal or cleanse. Build Zhonya's Hourglass to avoid dying to him as quickly, and late game play to Cocoon him as he jumps on your carries. ”
IMissedMyQ says “You should not have a problem with Rengar, as long as you don't fight him around bushes. If you can get the jump on him (and you have EXECUTIONER'S CALLING) you can take him down pretty easily early on. You can also counter his Ult damage with your ult (you become untargetable) if you're fast enough. ”
FREAKSTAR says “The statistics say you should win this matchup, however if you're facing a Rengar main smurfing this matchup can be really tough.
Similar to Olaf if the Rengar knows what he's doing he's going to try and invade you.
Do not give him a first blood, and do not feed this guy. He's not good at ganking early so as long as you avoid him you win this matchup.
Once you hit 6 and get some damage your ganks are superior. Play a team game, not a 1v1 game in the jungle, that's exaclty what he wants.”
Arfreezy says “A bit weak in the current meta (10.24) but is expected to get buffed in 10.25. His level 3 and 6 spikes are very strong so try and path to the opposite side of him and split the map. Ninja tabi's makes this matchup much easier and you can start playing more aggressive.”
Goldenstinger says “He can one shot you late - ward and track him effectively. you are more useful than him but a good rengar one trick can ruin your day. ”
Whynotbefriends says “A good Rengar is very hard to beat. Who ever gets the first hit in usually wins unless the other is extremely strong. Play around his fury, if he has a way to get 4 fury combo then avoid at all costs. Zhonyas or an early armguard is a good purchase. ”
KamiKZ says “This match up is Graves favored. You should always be able to 1v1 rengar in the early game. Try to contest his jungle camps whenever you have smite. Avoid fighting near bushes since this will Rengar an advantage over you. ”
Insightful says “this matchup is unplayable, if he finds you, he'll just kill you at any stage of the game, even if you try to cc him he can walk away and you'll never have enough damage to kill him, just dodge if they pick rengar or ban this champion”
AvidPanda says “Rengar is by far one of the hardest matchups for Evelynn. He can simply heal all of your burst instantly, and he can perma invade you in the jungle. His ulti reveals you in stealth which is a huge counter as Eve plays around her stealth mechanic.”
wyjebnik2zuk says “yea, again, serpents fang. Also you make for him bushes, which is most popular synergy and thing that makes this machup barely playable”
Insightful says “Rengar counters evelynn in every way, faster clear, stronger early game. And his R can reveal you, only way to play this matchup is by avoiding him.”
poopyOCE says “If he has a bush or ult, DO NOT ENGAGE, he will 1 shot you, as you build minimal Tank Items. Otherwise use R on him in Teamfights to deny picks on your ADC to win the fight. Otherwise, try to keep an early lead and avoid 1v1 duels in the Jungle.”
FREAKSTAR says “If they are a smurfing Renger 1 trick you will have a hard time. Fiddle needs time to CC champions, a fed rengar doesn't give you time.
The good news for you is most Rengar players are bad at the game, so don't worry too much.”
poopyOCE says “Absolute cancer, burst is insane, denies your setup by sheer existence as he can bushcamp then leap 1 shot you. R lets him become camouflage to scout for you during teamfights. Be VERY aware of presence on rift.”
Karasmai says “This champ I put under very hard because he is very very slippery and can one shot either form with ease. Red tends to do better in the lower elos, blue gets destroyed because he is the assassin who's an anti assassin. My secret way of beating Rengar is going Bruiser Blue kayn which is called Bluzer, Because i can have the high dmg and movement speed that he has and counter him with Exec and Cleaver to not die and sustain his dmg. Usually i dont like to play vs rengar but he is beatable. Just dont let him kill you and your team cause if he gets 5 stacks early of his passive he will run you!”
MexBookMaster says “Si se feedea es GG. Te puede invadir siempre y abusar de ti. Como cualquier asesino pierde fuerza en el juego tardío pero no esperes llegar a ese punto contra un buen Rengar. Juega Rhaast o Shadow Assassin (Azul) y centrate en feedearte más rapido que el.”
Exoslol says “Rengar is rough. Rengar either wins the 1v1's or leaves with more hp. Because of his W and empowered W he is able to fully heal your burst while at the same time bursting you. If you're not careful he can fully heal up, press R and wait out his cooldowns before he jumps you and end you. Playing around your team is a good option and tracking where rengar goes. Rengar usually is squishy so if u get him CC'd you oneshot him.”
gankyourgrandma says “Rengar is by far one of the hardest matchups for Evelynn. He can simply heal all of your burst instantly, and he can perma invade you in the jungle. His ulti reveals you in stealth which is a huge counter as Eve plays around her stealth mechanic.”
ak521 says “Very annoying with his R, can 100-0 squishies very very quickly. Stay away from brushes, stay near your adc. Might also be a good idea to watch out for invasions and keep brushes warded, it SUCKS to duel him- as like many other assassins, apply CC before they can do damage.”
Rhoku says “Rengar is free food. He will never be able to kill you unless he gets 10 kills ahead of you. Even then, you can tank up and outlast him. His healing is annoying when he goes Spirit Visage and etc. but lucky for us, most Rengar junglers go full assassin which means he is pretty much cat food. Make him regret jumping on you.”
Kayncer says “Kills you early, is fast, ward his Jungle a lot and keep track of him, or you´re team will have a bad time fighting him. Red is better off here!”
Dabgren says “As for early game, the one who snowballs the best without dying to much wins this matchup, although, Rengar R counters Kha'zix R so much, so if the Rengar plays fights out well he should win most of the times.”
izzlelol says “He can one shot you and if he goes bruiser its basically over. The healing and damage bruiser rengar has is just insane and he usually can kill you before you even have the chance to ult. Just stick with your team and you should be fine”
OsakaSatang says “Conc+inspration
Annoying enemy. His burst damage is huge so be careful. Don't have much experience against jungle rengers but don't fight in his territory(bushes). ”
Lambda Diana says “He has so many builds that he can go full assassin or goredrinker try to not fight him and don't let him get a lead. If he gets to snowball its a gg you will not be safe anywhere in the jg. DO NOT FIGHT HIM IN BUSHES. Anti heal can help is need if he goes goredrinker. ”
aurus666lol says “Did you know that Rengar VS Kha'Zix is skill matchup? Or like my friend said: "Who started - that guy will win". The reason why is that you can win if you play smart, but he can win if you play stupidly.
NEVER face-check bushes on river because he can be camping for u. With his W mechanics, he can heal all of his taken damage, so bait it first, after that deal your all dmg. If he gets CC'd and he doesn't have W, he can die easly.”
ItsSkoob says “Rengar is only a threat if in the right hands. I would take ignite against him and dont let him get early kills or he will snowball out of control.”
Ellesmere says “Since his rework, Rengar is much more difficult for Udyr to handle due to him being able to ignore CC... thanks Riot. Beware of the bush plays. Don't let him jump on you and run in the bushes and jump on you again and shit. Just stun him, follow him into the bush if you have to and beat that squishy kittens face in (wow that sounded way worse than I meant).”
Penguto says “Rengar is just the better assassins aswell he will just spam jump bushes in your jungle if he invades you, you wont be able to do more damage than him.”
Raggy69 says “Rengar is an scary cat prowling in the jungle hoping for an Ivern opponent. His claws and quick combos will turn your shield and HP into smithereens. Also he likes using the bushes against you! Damned traitors. ”
FrostForest says “Beats you 1v1 but can't teamfight well. Look to team up on him if you ever want to kill. He snowballs very hard and will take over the game if you give him kills”
manco1 says “Rengar is a 5/5 threat - he beats you on the scuttle fight with his bush levels 2+. The jungle is also littered with bushes so he always has his win condition. Avoid at all costs, outfarm and counter gank.”
RichMrFork says “ Note: I probably have a different view on this matchup than other players.
If I see a Rengar I dodge. The healing, gapclose, damage and fact Rengar is most played by experienced one tricks is enough to drive me away from ever playing against this matchup. Rengar actually scales very nicely with his passive and build paths this season so you can't reliably outscale like you would other junglers. Extremely hard to one shot him even if you reach your item spikes because of his grey health. The only advantage you have is that you have a lot more gank threat pre 6 but after that it's extremely easy for him to get fed off overextended teammates with his ult.”
Kayn Mains says “Very bad matchup for Kayn. Rengar's early game power lets him invade you when he wants. His Battle Roar (W) makes it incredibly unrealistic to kill him early to mid game. Do not fight him, however, look to countergank his ultimate if you can.
Neither form of yours beats this champ. Build Executioner's Calling and play for your team.”
LilPaniniUwU says “Good Rengars are terrifying. Bad Rengars are pathetic. Fight him early and try to get your laners to collapse on him in the Jungle to set him behind early.
”
metalhydra273 says “Easy on paper, but Rengar has many ways to outplay your kit and will abuse that if you let him get ahead. His enhanced w acts a qss, but if you can avoid wasting your ult on it, you can get him killed easily. It's an odd matchup that heavily favors the winner of the early game. If you go even though you have the slight advantage. Sit on your team when he tries to ult and he's not likely to dare try. ”
Jinx_48 says “i always go red form and always winning try know up him they combo if he going to r on you q away when you see jumping him on you to cancel his R damage. Maybe its minor but idk maybe i playing on worst rengars EUNE”
LilPaniniUwU says “Very bad matchup for Kayn. Rengar's early game power lets him invade you when he wants. His Battle Roar (W) makes it incredibely unrealistic to kill him early to mid game. Do not fight him, however, look to countergank his ultimate if you can. Neither form of yours beats this champ. Build Executioner's Calling and play for your team.
”
Ir.Defender says “We can't deny his kit and assassin power, whilemean, just use your ult whenever he try leap on you and then E > Q And you can kill him.
if he is fed you may protect your carries.”
SpaceGl1der says “He will easily kill you in the early parts of the game. If he is any good he will try to camp your jungle and 100-0 you over and over... ward as much as you can and play safe. can also spot you in stealth with his R”
auileta says “He can counter all of your burst damage simply by healing, and you're substantially weaker than him in the early game. Regardless of whether you're invisible, his ult can find you, making you not as stealthy as you can/should be.”
InvictisOCE says “Better early game skirmishes, clear speed is close to yours, can invade you level 1. If Rengar gets a lead he is the hardest champ to deal with pre form even when form because of his w healing. If you get red Kayn you can deal with him easily if he's not super fed, blue form not so much unless your really far ahead of him or he's really far behind. path away from Rengar early game unless you have prio in the lane he's pathing to.”
Nanelol says “When he uses his ultimate he can see you while your being in stealth and you always will have to trade ultimates, so becareful when he has his Ultimate up.”
Nanelol says “In this matchup you have got the advantage until level 6. Elise have got way more pre 6 damage than rengar. After level 6 and a few items you shouldn't be able to fight him anymore. Definetly consider buying Oblivion Orb since his W can soak your damage and he will heal up to full hp in seconds.”
Eagzey says “This champ is the hardest matchup for AP Shaco in my opinion. AD it's not that bad because it's all about who can one-shot the other, but AP we can't one-shot, he can out-sustain us with his empowered W, has great mobility (to avoid boxes and R), and his R cucks us. Possible ban.”
uSgSello says “In this matchup you have got the advantage until level 6. Elise have got way more pre 6 damage than rengar. After level 6 and a few items you shouldn't be able to fight him anymore. But if you are ahead in items and dodge his jump out of his ult with your rappel you can win the fight.
In this matchup you should prevent counterjungling. Concentrate on ganking and counterganking After level 6 he may counterjungle you.”
uSgSello says “Skill based matchup. Rengar has more damage than you if he engages you. If you engage him + hit your combo and he has no stack you will win the trade. Pay attention to his pathing and prevent getting invaded. ”
Smartest2 says “Rengar can be tricky. He has an easy time picking off your teammates, but if you can anticipate where he's going to go you can easily out pressure him. Rengar likes bushes, watch to see where lanes are at to get a vague idea of where wards can be and cheese him from river bushes by top/bot.”
RTO says “Toplane Rengar is a nightmare. Freeze wave under your tower to avoid brushes, post 6 he has roam pressure and he has a cleanse on empowered W.”
qosmox says “Since he sits in the bush except when he lasthits a minion or jumps on you, your only window to take good trades is when you know he’s gonna jump for a lasthit. Walk up beforehand and prepare yourself to make 1-2 Q (Emp if possible) auto’s and then backing off out of his range if he tries to get back into the bush. Be wary of him when he has full or close to full ferocity stacks, and trade more when his bar is low or empty. Lvl 3+ you wanna deny his Q’s with your W and taunt out (through him if possible) if he tries to extend the trade. Once he’s much lower than you you can start going for extended trades instead.”
BlackFalcon2005 says “In low elo I have yet to find a decent Rengar, but if you do, be very carful with him. He can, and will oneshot you if not carful.”
Doubtfull says “One of your hardest match ups. NEVER use your W in fights, or you give him free bushes to jump off of. Try to track him early game and don't let him snowball.”
Narutoe says “With good reaction speed, you can ult and prevent his one shot, and then kill him in your ult. At all costs avoid fighting him near bushes after early game. Early and mid game you destory him, but he can still one shot you with his ult”
EUWRATS says “Wins before you reach trinity, but then hard loses, so make sure you dont die to him while he invades your red. Great counter against rengar is ninja tabis and ulting before he gets 4 stacks of ferocity.”
Kindredgarten says “With good reaction time you can negate his burst with your ultimate and get him low in yours to finish him off. A good idea to peel your team's squishies and yourself with your ult if he is fed. Most likely easy to kill if he's not near a bush. If he is near one, avoid fighting him at all costs unless you are super ahead.”
Xarmat says “Place a trap under your feed and wards in the bush. Trap the entry point of the brush where he wants to jump out. If the farms a minion, punish him.”
RadRob says “Rengar with Conqueror is pretty strong against you. A smart opponent would invade and then counter jungle. Survive the early game and you will be able to win.”
Caled says “Rengar makes the game extremely unenjoyable for Kayn and you will lose a majority of 1v1’s against him. Early game Rengar can invade and counter jungle you and beat you in a majority of duels. Rengar’s Battle Roar (W) prevents you from beating him early mid due to the sustain and cleanse he gets from it. Typically, you want to play more for your team in this matchup and look to stay clear of 1v1’s against him in a majority of the game. Only take duels if you are extremely ahead and are preferably going Rhaast.”
Loul_60 says “Annoying to deal with early as you literally cannot fight him. You're gonna have to bank on his low ganking pressure early game to try and win. If you go Red form just W him during his leap and you are fine.”
litecrunch says “If there is a bush nearby then you will get destroyed. You might have a chance if there isn't a bush and he has 0 stack but you should avoid fighting him early. make sure to ward and build defensively so you don't get one shot. Also, he will most likely look to invade you early in the game so make sure you path away from him or ward effectively.”
liserith says “If you don't ward well, Rengar will destroy you. This build gives you the tankiness to survive his initial burst, but his damage is still off the charts. Remember to ward and Q as soon as he jumps on you, W to reset it's cooldown, then use E to counter his E.”
HeroAronNavius says “This cat can one-shot you if you are not careful in mid-game. If you want to contest for drake with your team then you are fine. But do not try to 1v1 a Rengar because Viego has much DPS. All Rengar has to do after you just did heavy DPS to him is click W. Do not engage Rengar by yourself. Otherwise, Rengar is an easy target.”
Cayteer says “Just wait under your tower , he punishes you for even walking up to farm because of his passive. If he doesn't have his empowered W , you can pull combo him.”
chevy the sloot says “Natural counter you. Early game he hard beats you 1v1 and farms as fast as you after his buffs. Post 6 you can only contest/invade him if you have an oblivion orb, redsmite, and are ahead.”
c0st0m says “Completely unplayable will one shot you in auto q can cleanse your ult and you cant kite rengar whatsoever
give up however many crabs if need be DO NOT TRY TO FIGHT”
Shroomen Rider says “Rengar wins scuttles because of the bushes. You might be able to kill him if you catch him from invis, and he is easy to pick off during a counter-gank.
Save sweeper for his late game ulties because you can Q him mid jump. Put shrooms from where he is trying to flank from. ”
Tinjus says “The ultimate rivalry. Kha'Zix can easily outplay this matchup. Just kite around with your Ultimate and Leap, using Q and W as necessary and you'll be fine. Try not to fight him near bushes in the early game.”
Snadr says “Rengar can't really do any damage to Rammus. Rammus can easily catch rengar with taunt. It puts a lot of pressure on Rengar to snowball early and use empowered w to escape Rammus taunt”
UnaFlauta says “He has a very good oneshot potential, specially against Kindred. Be carefull and don't fight him. You might want to use the anti burst build”
Rubenvt3 says “With this build you are fairly squishy, Rengar can easily hunt you down if he is ahead.
I suggest a bruiser build when you are up against a Rengar that is ahead.”
PsiGuard says “Rengar is really dangerous in jungle or river fights where he can spam jumps from bushes. Ward to spot early invades to avoid being cheesed. You might want to start at your Red, since he can't chase you as well if he fights you at Blue.”
lolX9J says “One of the harder matchups.
Extended fights are hard due to his healing and conq.
Fearing him wont be possible due to 5th W or smite or him oneshotting boxes with his Q.
Lategame he cant win 1v1 against you tho, specially when you R his R-Jump on you.”
VenoSlayer123 says “The standard evelynn permaban. Pre-6, he can perma-invade you, and post 6, his ult reveals you. He can oneshot you before you can take him out at all stages.”
JunglerBuilds says “Should be an easy job, just W him, shouldn't be that hard. He is an assassin so you should be just looking to use your Twisted advance on him. ”
ChaseMorePlz says “Stay grouped and be ready to Q>R him when he comes out of stealth. Grabbing your items asap will counter him hard, the early game may be a struggle since he has the clear advantage. He is squishy so when you get your items you will be able to peel for your team and burst him down. ”
ChaseMorePlz says “Statistically speaking, Rengar is one of Vi's hardest matchups. She only has a 45% win rate versus him in Platinum+ games. In my opinion, this isn't always a very hard matchup, however respect his level 6. Rengar is pretty weak vs you early on unless he catches you pretty low, or if he is fed enough to 100-0 you. Your combo will chunk him out if you can land it properly. He may force you to build armor and tank items. Plated Steelcaps is probably a must versus him.”
BreakrZero says “Pretty easy, don't let him outplay you in duels. You farm quicker, gank better and have a stronger mid-game if he's not ultra fed. You're tankier in later stages of the game so he's never really a true threat to you. ”
Hxriis says “Many Kha'Zix players struggle against rengar. I usually go for a late invade on his red buff forcing either a smite battle or trying to fight him. If your botlane has a decent amount of cc, you definetely want to go for the kill on Rengar or at least make him flash away from the red. This should make you get the smite on the red buff. Anything after that is purely just reading the map. You simply farm up, always stay ahead and counter jungle. Especially if he doesn't have flash left, go for it but don't greed and overstay. If you are unable to do an early late invade, and the matchup is even, I suggest that you find Rengar before he finds you. I find myself realising that most of the times the one who catches the other one, usually wins the battle. If you can find or trap him and engage before he does, you'll keep the lead during the entire fight. Make sure to stay next to him in bushes to avoid his passive.”
Get Ricked says “Your arch nemesis. Whoever gets ahead can destroy the other. Who wins this is usually decided by who makes the first move. Be proactive and hunt for him so he doesn't get the chance to hunt for you.”
G Spot God says “He can cleanse your cc and if you are fighting in the jungle (which I do a lot with this build on Skarner) it can become messy even if you have the spire.”
lolkayleee says “[Grasp/Conqueror + Trinity Force]
[Ignite + TP]
This matchup isn't hard but just really annoying. You're going to have to give up a lot of cs to avoid his damage as he jumps out of the bush. But in order for him to maintain his passive stack he has to shove the wave -- so just farm up and wait for your jungler. Auto him if he jumps on you to get your passive. When you're level 6 and if your jungler comes you can R him and he's pretty much screwed.”
DarkAuraLOL says “The toughest matchup you can ever play, rengar can just constantly invade you, jump you through walls from vision and stopping your e, he counters all your mobility cause of his jumps, he outbursts you hard no matter how behind he is, the only way to win him, is to avoid him pre 6, out clearing him, trying to steal his raptors or golumns, since his clear on them is bad, and try to play around your team against him, once you get your form and your a little bit ahead, you will need heal reduction for his w, after that you'll be able to 1v1 him, but later on you might struggle with his ult ambush, his kit is better than your on ambush, so id advice an early ga or a ninja tabi”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Rengar isn't the biggest threat, but you should always be very careful in this match-up because if Rengar gets an early lead he can steamroll over you. ”
EvoNinja7 says “HE outburst you, but if you can survive that with a decent amount of health, stun him and heal with your Q. Kraken power spike is key in this matchup.”
suprfxivsilkshot says “Early levels he will out-farm you and counter your abilities. By the time you get ult, you're about even, but dying to him even once during the first 5 mins becomes a bit of a death sentence for the whole game.
The same could be said for a lot of assassin junglers. If you get into a 1v1 with a champion that is good in the early game, you need to gtfo of there regardless of what you are giving up. This is one of the reasons I like buying a ward first; if you can bring in your mid and top for support while your buff is getting stolen, you get a semi-easy kill.”
MetaSolaray says “Try to fight Rengar away from bushes and with low fury. If he's at 3 stacks he can counter your damage with an empowered W. Once he's engaged on someone from a bush he's often slightly away from one allowing you to run him down. Catching him at scuttle where he's likely to burn a root on is a great way to punish him.”
DarkAuraLOL says “The toughest matchup you can ever play, rengar can just constantly invade you, jump you through walls from vision and stopping your e, he counters all your mobility cause of his jumps, he outbursts you hard no matter how behind he is, the only way to win him, is to avoid him pre 6, out clearing him, trying to steal his raptors or golumns, since his clear on them is bad, and try to play around your team against him, once you get your form and your a little bit ahead, you will need heal reduction for his w, after that you'll be able to 1v1 him, but later on you might struggle with his ult ambush, his kit is better than your on ambush, so id advice an early ga or a ninja tabi ”
RedNBlue says “Rengar will bash, YOU, UPPP and he will combo you heal back a health bar, heal back the bar and then he will stab you with a Popsicle stick and then kill you by shoving his alpha fang in your neck bleeding you dry and healing, feasting off of your body. You blood he loves bloooddddd.”
C7 Lord Pingu says “This guy is nasty. If he goes ignite you just can't 1v1 him ever really. He will probably try to invade always so keep yellow trinket. You will need your laners help. Any build works honestly.”
KaynPlayer814 says “Rengar is very hard for you. He wins every 1v1 before you get form. Try to dont risk things in the Early game. If you go Blue Kayn he can always outdamage and outsustain you. If you go Red Kayn you can deal with him if you have Antiheal and some Armor.”
Dannala says “LANE: He will hide in the bush for the most part, simple stand on the other side and poke whenever he goes in for CS. Don't overextend too close to the bush so he can jump on you. The best way if you aim to kill him is to use just HQ+SQ and auto attack him until he uses his empowered roar then turn human to perform a full combo. Otherwise he will heal too much and you will have to retreat.
JUNGLE: A lot of the same as lane, except there are bushes everywhere, invading him is not gonna be an option unless you know he's really low. If he invades you you can only pray you get help or have a nearby camp to escape to. Generally do not engage unless very far ahead. LATE: Can Rappel his ult or Cocoon when he goes for your carry and combo him to either finish him or scare him off.”
Simon The Shaco Main says “Super hard matchup, can bait your Q and your ult with his ult. And he can see you when invis. AP Shaco makes it a bit more safer but it's still pretty hard.”
Linkay says “This matchup can be difficult if you try to fight him early and he gets a lead. If you are able to keep his movements on lock and counter gank, he should not be a problem. ”
Schadenfreude says “It all depends on his build. If he does goredrinker, you should be able to destroy him. If he goes lethality, be careful and try to put him behind in the early game. He is a feast or famine champion, so if he gets behind, he won't have much impact in the game. ”
TacoTheShaco says “He isnt that big of a deal, just reminding when he ults you and you go invisible, he can still see you and one tap you, but when he jumps on you, you still can ignore the damage take by pressing you r in time. ”
Karthus man says “Rengar is horrible. He will kill you very fast in all stages of the game. The only chance you have is to find a way to kill him in the early game, or get to late game, and get a Zhonyas.”
STVO124 says “Natural rivals, use your Q and W as necessary and you'll be fine. Try not to fight him near bushes in early, In very late game you will have the challenge to kill rengar or assist to gain another evolution point, meaning you'll get the chance to evolve all your abilities”
Rusitc1 says “When he hits 6, you cannot get out through walls due to the fact that his bush jumping has a rather large range, especially for the jungle being close quarters. His ult vision also means you are not getting away.
On blue kayn you might be able to assassinate him if you are ahead depending on his build
”
Maile says “Rengar hard wins early, avoid him early and play for mid-late game. Be careful for late invades because Rengar players are bit cringe and want to cheese their way to a win. ”
Happty says “He's not much of a threat if you're experienced in dueling him or if he's not that good, though, if he's a professional and you're not so experienced, he might be a big threat.”
CalicoCactus says “AD Assassin, haha. Rengar is literally the worst AD Assasin in the jungle meta I can think of now, he just does everything a lot worse than champions like Ekko and Kha'Zix.”
Joseppi1234 says “I just hate him
He jumps at you, he jumps again. He can one shot you if fed before your W even registers, and its just not a fun time at all.”
White Cr0w says “Skill matchup.
Strong assassin and duellist if he has everything up. Kill him when he uses his 5 fury charge to heal up on his jungle. Make sure you upgrade your red trinket so he doesn't use ultimate to escape.”
KevinThyAsian says “Read khazix’s threat description, very similar concept. Rengos a little bit easier to vs early on as he outputs less dmg than kha early (assuming kha has iso)”
Katszu says “Rengar should be avoided in the early game. Don't look into any bushes. If you're alone, try to avoid him. If you build galeforce, you may utilize it to prevent him from totally one-shotting you with double q when he jumps on you.”
Embracing says “If he jumps on you it's pretty donezo, but you can win fights if you have vision of him and land spear on him. Extremely hard matchup because there's no counterplay once he's already on top of you, but with proper tracking and positioning you can bait out good fights.”
BoyWonder00 says “He scales super hard and will be looking to get kills as often as possible. Strong throughout the game. He doesn't have CC that can cancel your W, and if you can deny him kills then you outscale him.”
Minase says “This is an extremely hard matchup. The only way you can beat this matchup is by pathing in such a way where he can never find you. Look to start either Wolves or Raptors. It is always better to give up camps than to die to him because once you die once to him the game is almost always lost. ”
ACE4291 says “Avoid him and anti heal
Dont worry if he gets ahead you still make a better impact on team fights than him only if your team is decent tho so be careful
NEVER FIGHT ALONE unless you destroyed him early and he's like 0-5”
FalleN3 says “He will easily kill you in the early parts of the game. After level 6 you begin to have a chance at winning trades against him. If he's any good, he will try to camp your jungle and 100-0 you over and over... ward as much as you can and play safe. Try to avoid fighting him near bushes and dodge his (E) Bola Strike. Some armor and health can go a long way.”
FalleN3 says “Man, this damage is just annoying. He will easily kill you in the early parts of the game. If he is any good he will try to camp your jungle and 100-0 you over and over... ward as much as you can and play safe.”
Holessando says “even matchup, you should be able to fight him and kill him.. if you're not sure, just wait for lv 6 and then fight him, you should be able to kill him with ULT for sure.. but don't if you're losing, that's a bad idea then.. help your team, dont focus on him, he falls of late game, you shine in late game, so theres not much to worry about ”
Afro D Legend says “A lot of damage if user has the right build, and the duskblade slow is enough to be a huge nuisance. You also might not know where he's coming from when in ult, so it'll be hard to run, especially if you don't have anything to auto attack beforehand. ”
metalhydra273 says “This matchup will always be lopsided, but is more of an uphill battle for Rengar. Skarner can easily deal with him by sitting on whoever Rengar wants to jump on provided you don't let him w your ult unpunished. If Rengar gets ahead though, he absolutely shits on Skarner nearly at Olaf's level. He will easily one shot you and while countering or threatening to counter any cc you throw at him with w. Don't let him get ahead and you can win this reliably.”
FrankWhite47 says “Rengar is a big treath because he can see you with his ult and he can also invade you pretty easy so the best thing to do is ward your jungle good or ask laners to ward and make sure you are always ahead of him when he tries to invade you so lets say you know he starts red and you know his pathing and he will invade you on blue just skip your blue buff then and go to his blue buff for an example”
THCrow says “Rengar has high burst early on and usually wins in fights against you in early engagements and should be avoided until mid to late game. ”
AKScorched says “Stay as far away from him as possible. Q him if he jumps or ults on you or your teammates and fight him then only if you're with a teammate. Focus him in teamfights if he gets too close and don't invade too much since he can kill you in the matter of 1-5 seconds at any point in the game.”
Ruffhsu says “At first glance, he might be a terrifying match up, but you can interrupt his leap with your W (in Red form) with good timing. As long as you can consistently do so, his damage against you is not too threatening. ”
CinderTheSnake says “Early game look out for a invade. He can spot you in his ulti so play around that. He's a really big threat both early and late game.”
chasemyman1 says “Be careful as even when you are ahead he can easily kill you. Avoid invading his jungle unless you KNOW he is not their. Use your Rappel just as he jumps on you with his ultimate to avoid damage.”
Twist21 says “Rengar is an oppressive early game champion but Tryndamere has enought sustain to deal with him.In this matchup you shouldn't really look to fight him pre 6 unless he doesn't have his passive fully stacked.Standard runes and sums for this one.”
Sandomar says “His kit is a dangerous counter-jungle for most, but Udyr can stun and kill.
May need teammates to assist with ctrl-wards to map location and plan ambushes.”
PsiGuard says “He can bully you early and his ult will reveal you in stealth if you're the closest enemy to him. You can survive his ult if you use your R as he jumps, but you'll usually need teammates nearby to kill him after that. Ward defensively to get through the early game and either get a pick before he presses R, or group with your team for more safety.”
xFirefoxYBA says “Rengar is one of evelynn's biggest counters. mainly cause he can spot you for his team with his r and his dmg comes from auto attacks.
I did not place him in EXTREME only because he takes a lot of skill and most players don't know how to play him properly and fully abuse you.”
TheInkKingLoL says “Rengar is a strong jungler, strong jungle fighter, and strong ganker. His ultimate, Thrill of the Hunt, allows him to easily jump on you and your teammates and kill you quickly. If he gets ahead early on, he will be able to kill most junglers and laners easily.”
Happty says “Big no-no, he can easily kill you while being alone. The only way to beat him is by taking the lead by farming and being fed, but if he gets fed, then it won't be easy to kill him, at all. I normally won't approach him unless he's low or if he's way outleveled.”
Sinister Buffoon says “Rengar is weird. I mean in my experience, rengar withouyt be feed is easy to kill with shaco. You have your w and he has to use his smite to destroy your box or use some skill in box. That make him lose a lot of dmg or time and with your clone etc you can defeat him not really hard. The problem with rengar is his snowball. If rengar get feed then you are in a big problem. With his R he will see you even in your Q so in that point he jump on you and instakil. Build some armor then you will have an option.”
MrMuckDuck says “Rengar will most likely always grind your gears, or... flop your wings. If you manage to take down Rengar in early-game, you are most likely good to go. Remember that Rengar has both a lot of upsides and downsides to being your competitor. Rengar's passive, Unseed Predator, has a lot of advantage when brush camping. Rengar can vault onto you and easily take you down if you don't see him coming. The same principle goes for his ultimate, Thrill of the Hunt. TotH makes Rengar invisible and fast. Rengar can also vault onto you while ulting. This is where Rengar's downsides come out. Since Kha'Zix can both leap away and go invisible, the champions' abilities counter-cancel each other. When Rengar uses his ultimate around you, use your ultimate to go invisible and you're good to go.”
Eggoman says “You will have trouble fighting him as you will never get to make the first move. If you see he used his ult be ready to counter with yours as soon as he jumps to knock him back.”
M.P.C says “TBH it really depends on the person who plays him. If he's smart he'll take advantage of his passive and do Peek-A-Boo's from the bush's to farm and harass/kill you then you're out of luck. But if its the opposite, EASIEST LANE EVER.”
KillyOne says “Rengar is always a mixed bag, in some games they are extremely strong in others non existent. He has pretty bad early clears, and is a threat only if he snowballs. Try to invade him or sniff him out at low HP in his jungle.”
KillyOne says “As Rengar players are all over the place in terms of skill. I don't find Rengar to be a Major threat for Lillia because he needs a skilled player to be effective. I would still be careful when engaging in a fight with him, but if he has no bushes you can easily kite him to death.”
NoaaaaXD says “Rengar can get oneshot you with duskblade powerspike, and you should be very careful to go alone. You should play around your team, so you atleast can trade 1 for 1. If you catch him far from a bush you can run him down. Just be careful of his W which can heal him to full HP again.”
League Of Cursed says “I'd want to put this lower, but most of the time I've ended up fighting over bushes with this man. Hes frustrating given his burst. Never fight him alone, but try to counter gank him whenever you can. You both are looking to gank at 6 or higher anyhow.
”
Poohlio says “This cat ain't friendly D: he will make your early game hell. Just seeing a bush will give you anxiety and he loves it. Don't contest scuttle early, ward up and team up to hunt him down. Once you get form it'll be easier.”
Jogress says “A good rengar will bully you through the entire game. He is stronger and it's hard to outrun him in the jungle. Ward everything, ping for your team to help, buy early armor and... BEWARE OF EVERY BUSH!
Good rengar may jump on your fresh ward and then jump on your head right after - a true horror of a champion”
AWierdShoe says “Rengar has the potential to one-shot you through bushes, so try not to facecheck if you think he's around the area. If you spot him in a bush, you can pop your W on him so he can't leap onto you. If he has no bush to play around, it is possible to duel him 1v1. You need to dodge his E, and watch out for his R as he can catch you by surprise and kill you before you can react.”
DarkArbalist613 says “Rengar's one shot Potential and invisibility can be a huge problem. His Empowered E can root you and keep you from escaping, and his ult means your never safe if he is fed. Play off his cooldowns and try to use your laners as bait and countergank him.”
Comrade Eshgrim says “If you know he is onto you, you can turn the fight by ulting as soon as he jumps on you, allowing you a chance to fight him off, then try to avoid bushes, dodge his bolas and use the tremendous slows you have in your arsenal to keep him at distance while making him regret his life choices.”
Shujin Jasukai says “Rengar isn't super hard to deal with as when he ults you can meditate to reduce his damage which will either put him in a bad position or force him to go for someone else on your team ”
TotallyEclipse says “Rush ninja tabi bramble vest and you can fight him. Otherwise there's literally no hope, stand on the opposite side of the wave and try to farm what you can. You'll outscale and destroy him out of lane.”
TimRhabey says “Sempre ande proximo dos arbustos com seu E ligado se por algum motivo ele pular em voce sejq rapido, stune ele e fatie ele com seu Q recomento PTA com smite vermelho. (Warde bastante especialmente os arbustos proximos dos rios.)”
MegaAlphaDog says “coin-flip match up, skill dependent on who will come out on top, his early clear sucks so look to take advantage, but only if your lane has prio.”
DarkPit59 says “Grâce à son ultime et ses lourds dégâts, en plus de ne pas pouvoir lui faire face en earlygame, il pourra vous révéler et vous traquer à partir du niveau 6. ”
Al3ksP says “Rengar will be hard to get especially if your ap shaco, heäll wait in bushes and when you get there he'll jump out and one shot you, best way to handle a rengar is to stay in your own jungle as much as possible”
OxDZZZZ says “Rengar can reveal eve in her ultimate, and can one shot her easily, and can win early invades against her, so if you are up to play evelynn ban him ”
Hawary says “in team fights if u r not going to kill the enemy carry , then protect urs from rengo and stay away from the bushes if u stun him go all in nd he will run like a pussy ”
Vodka4Gaben says “You outscale Rengar but if its a good rengar he will most likely camp your jungle or try to invade as much as possible. Until you get form, don't even think of fighting him.”
WickedPoppet says “I'd want to put this lower, but most of the time I've ended up fighting over bushes with this man. Hes frustrating given his burst. Never fight him alone, but try to counter gank him whenever you can. You both are looking to gank at 6 or higher anyhow.”
D3str00 says “Same as Kha'zix - beast on level 3. Also you can be ambushed from a bush. Avoid him in the early stages of the game, try to find opportunity on level 6.”
Sorrowful Prince says “Definition of anti-fun champ. Just farms up to 2 lethality items and then jumps on your carry without any counterplay. If you meet him alone you can kill him easily. Don't fight near a bush! Be careful with 1:25 as well. Try to make an investment before he can make one. In this case toplane bruisers really become a good win condition because your botlaner won't be one.”
Nyftt says “Rengar's R ability is a hard counter as it reveals your invisibility. As well as this his one shot potential makes it very hard for you. Against him make sure to keep your jungle entrances warded so he can't cheese kill your jungle. Against him opting for zhonya can be quite effective depending on the game.”
Freeakzoid says “There are basically no extreme threats for Rek'Sai, as she herself is an extreme threat to every other jungler thanks to her Tremor Sense (great for counterganking), extremely high damage in early game (can 1v1 almost every champion early) and her unique tunnel mechanism which has higher range than Flash (can escape or engage from places, where other champions can not). The only 'even' matchups for her are very heavy damage early junglers like Rengar, lee, elise.”
Nico449c says “Hes the hardest counter to you either you have to 2v2 or teamfight against him since hes W can negate most of your dmg combo so dont fight him unless your really fed. Try countergank or outgank him to win lvl 3 you dont have a chance if hes near a bush.”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Rengar isn't the biggest threat, but you should always be very careful in this match-up because if Rengar gets an early lead he can steamroll over you. ”
GODEFFO says “Rengar is a different issue for TF. There is counter potential, either using Stopwatch or just spam Attack moving while close to bushes, but Rengar's burst is very dangerous when it comes to facing him with TF. ”
Fabosch is Love says “Usually played by OTP, Rengar is a strong problem if he's fed. He has the engage priority on you when he ults. He destroys the Assassin Wukong. But you will have a stronger teamfight impact with the monkey. Keep some tankiness (Tabis is the best item against Rengar).”
RaptorDre says “Isn't a hard matchup, if your quick on reactions you can E his jump. He will be able to W back a lot of the hp you just bursted out though so try and space it out a small bit. ”
urrb says “This champion wins against Kha'Zix unless you can catch him with his abilities on cooldown and fight him in a bush where he can't get any passive autos on you. Don't ever fight him near bushes unless you're ready to all in him inside the bush. I generally try to get a lead by ganking before ever attempting to fight him. ”
SpecterZX says “This is ridiculously easy..
Incredibly predictable and easy to 1v1.Even if he gets fed you should live with your W and he wont have any abilities left to use.”
KitsyMamori says “His all in combo is easier to land then yours. Be really careful for counters in your jungle as he is really strong around bushes. When you see his ult pop-up on your head, wait for him to jump on you while you run away and at the second he jumps E > W > RUN OR FIGHT!”
OGPOTATOJEFFSHACO says “you cant beat him until you get R or unless rengar is ass. play smart. your ganks are better. be patient, once you have R you win fights easily”
Quezel says “Rengar can be very hard if you don't know the range on his leap however once you learn it the matchup gets a bit easier. Farm with q and use your e to pull him back to you when he leaps in or tries to retreat to a bush. Once you get seekers tabi it becomes significantly easier to fight him 1v1. NEVER ult him when has has ferocity his empowered w can remove your ult look to ult him behind you away from bushes to make the fight easier.”
DonaldBinBaggin says “Good rengar players will run you over. You simply get outdamaged in a 1v1. Look to take drakes/rift herald and play for objectives. Don't be alone with low health while rengar still has R up.”
Simphoria says “Its like any other assassin. Clear a bit, gank. Our passive can protect us from his initial burst. He is a bit trickier than others because we have to watch where we Q. If we Q anywhere near a bush he will just jump to us or if we use our E when he has 5 stacks then he will empower W to break it. Other than that, he's not much different than any other assassin.
Late game when he ults, hover around your backline and the moment you see him dash in or if you can see him in the sweeper, then Q him. ”
HackedAccountlol says “Do a 5 point defense against him cause sometimes he will invade with his team in your jungle and if that happens just don't try to fight them cause Rengar in the jungle with bushes to help build up his fury will demolish your gameplan.”
Mkcls says “One shot. With every R. possible to kill if you have huge advantage, but you cannot let him get into bushes. Leave scuttle, its not worth it. Kinda viable to early cheese.”
Xelaadryth says “Auto attack him a lot. If he's in brush, stand far away, and look to hit him when he jumps out for cs with Qs and autos. He should have a hard time reaching you, especially if you dodge his slow/snare with your E.”
LFS_aXent says “Rengar and Kha'Zix are mechanically the same champion. I say you have a better time with Rengar, because you have the opportunity to play in the open with him, and beat down the kitty while he desperately tries jumping from bushes. Keep your distance late game, he will one shot with ult if you're not careful. Use your E wisely.”
Mr. Nyahr says “Depending on the player, Rengar can be a pain. Usually, however, he's not a big deal if you play correctly. He falls off late game, where you excel. Try to protect your squishy laners from his insane burst, and avoid his Bola Shot.”
Laverenz says “Rengar is a high one-burst champion, which makes a quite difficult opponent for Skarner. If you're ahead, he will use Ultimate to run away. If you're behind, he will just oneshot you”
today ill feed enemy team says “Weak early and Tiger Stance will destroy him, don't get caught low hp by his ult or you will die, when he ults use your E before he jumps on you and shred him.”
KingZogu says “personally i find rengar to be a massive pain in the early and mid game due to my agressive nature and karthus's low mobility rengar can pretty easily counter gank you and force a reaction.”
SirZeros says “Okay, this is most likely not gonna be a midlane matchup, but here's a great way to counter his burst. If you see him ulting hug a wall and prepare you tunnel, as soon as you see him jumping at you, use the tunnel. You ARE most likely get a some damage from his Q but usually not more.
If he goes through the tunnel too, just Q him into the wall. He usually shouldn't have four stacks already, so he can't cancel the stun.”
CryAwake says “straight forward his passive and ultimate is denied by your steadfast presence make sure to wait for his actual jump before casting it. ”
Her0mars says “probably not going to be a problem, heck you can invade this guy early because of his terrible first clear. When teamfights roll around just peel this guy with E and R. Sometimes it may get to the point where carry death is inevetable, in which case just try to kill him after. He is a cheese champion but sees play at high elo, even challenger level for his ability to instagib.”
Hamstertamer says “Stick with your team, go invisible when you see his ult indicator and counter-initiate. If he jumps anyone else than you focus him down. ”
Chromuro says “There are a couple of problems with him: first, he can make use of the brushes you create; sure, when the rengar is in your team is a good thing, but since brushes are a great tool to control enemy vision, you have to be extra careful placing them. Second, he can stick to you and he's an assassin, if he catches you while clearing jungle you have little possibilities to survive. Vision is important, keep your brushes warded and stick to your carries, your shield can deny a lot of his damage.”
4by3 says “Very snowbally matchup for both sides, if you have a lead you can destroy him easily. If he gets an early lead he will destroy you, and much easily too. You can outplay him if he's bad, but his power to avoid you from going in is not fun. If he is diving you with R, you can cancel his entire combo if you're sitting on a box. ”
batiabatyus says “Just clear his raptors and krugs at the early game for bonus exp. No chance that he is gonna be stronger than you, even in late game. Take all scuttle crabs. (Even Q+smite, if he is near)”
SupahotFairy says “Will very often try to counter jungle you, which can be very annoying, especially if your team is falling behind and losing lanes so that you can't counter jungle him back.
However, Vi outscales Rengar fast. As long as Rengar doesn't get too far ahead early, you will be able to take over in mid-game.”
Jadiac5 says “Yes he is the ONE the ONE you will ban EVERY match, his ultimate completely counters your passive, and if he is in a bush and sees you you will be having that grey screen before you can even see him. Rengar is only killable if you are HARD fed and on lanes when you can charm him.”
ASV1994 says “Now this "little cat" can burst the sh*t out of you in early game, banning him is also a good choice, but in case you end up vsing him avoid fighting him 1 v 1 ward bushes and powerfarm until you get Titanic Hydra and you finish your Smite Bloodrazor. ”
FesteringJester says “Yes, you can win against Rengar with WW, although, this will be another skill based match-up. MIND THE BUSHES. We are still tanky but that doesnt matter to him. ”
itskimjesus says “blue kayn can not, and i mean, can not 1v1 rengar, his w heals your full combo and from there you die. unless your extremely fed and he is not”
Fiskarn21 says “Rengar can be a major threat. He feeds on your bushes. It's not fun playing vs a Rengar... But if you don't use your bushes, he cannot get to you.”
EvilOranges says “Skill matchup. You can burst the knife-cat down, but he can do the same to you. Stay away from bushes, and buy Sweeping Lens. If he combos you, R or E away. He is stronger early game.”
vanchovski2002 says “Here it is your rivalry.
If he isn't fed then you can kill him 1v1.
If he jumps on, use your ultimate to either run away or fight him
People say he counters your Ult but you counter his ult so hard...He can't even imagine ”
PandaSenpai101 says “Try to push and utilize the bushes accordingly. You can go in on the bush to make him not able to use it with most of his damage gone.”
SlasherGamer says “Like all other 1 shot champs: If he gets early kills, Hecarim loses because of his low base tankyness causing him to get oneshotted. In this category are: KhaZix, Ekko, Qiyana, Nidalee, Rek Sai. Focus in early game can prevent a lot of bad games for sure.”
Bombabo says “Rengar will stomp you. He will most likely counterjungle you, where he will easily kill you. His ult reveals you even through demon shade, and he can repeatedly force you to ult just to survive. Even with your stealth, he will see you before you see him as long as he is in a bush. ”
Killerbacca10 says “He cant burst you. I recommend to counter gank him for free kills. However if he gets fed your screwed. Build anti burst if he snowballs. He can snowball the game well. Abuse your objective pressure.”
HAMMERSLAYER says “A jungler that will mostly farm until lvl 6 and then he will try to snowball during mid game, so try to get in front of him during early game while also trying to outfarm him.”
Jungle Kings Rage says “Can 1 Shot You With Ease. Just Build My On Hit With Titanic And Gage Build And You Will Demolish him. Extreme Threat If You Dont Though.”
MrParias says “This guy farms until 6 and then kills teammates.Outfarm him , ward both sides of jungle as he will try to invade or counter jungle and keep an eye on his movements.”
xMalcho says “He will kill you level 2 don't fight him.Try to ward his jungle because his early clear is not that good.You can kill him if you catch him doing raptors or wolves.And if you will fight him to death ignite the moment you auto him once because he will w if you don't and fuck your ass.”
FrozenKnight says “This goddamn cat will be unstoppable if he gets ahead. WARD. I can't stress enough that if you don't you will end up dying because you didn't see him. ”
Weebslayer says “If you end up fighting a Rengar
1) WHY DIDNT YOU BAN RENGAR YOU FOOL!!!
2) FOR the love of Satan dont place your w down if you think he is anywhere near by”
bluejaypig says “The new rengar is pretty busted, just don't fight him before 6 and you will still do fine. But he has gotten a lot more damage with his rework. ”
ExValentine0 says “Rengar can pop you instantly. If you don't hit him with a tornado while he's coming at you stealthed, then you'll just die horribly in under a second. If their Rengar is really good, rush health and armor items immediately.”
BigBadVoodo says “Another 50-50 matchup. Very hard playing from behind as he becomes unkillable. Try and pressure early and play around boxes a lot. His R is also a big counter as he can see us when we are in Q. Try using R to dodge his first auto attack from R to minimize dmg taken.”
WiskeyANDGin says “try to w when he leaps, predict it, if u do that u will get him easly, if not,still go all in on him, he wont be able to kill , only if he is really ahead of you”
xTheUnlimited says “Rengar will powerspike in mid game. Dont fight him there, and, I dont think you can ever 1v1 him, because his damage output might be too high. Try to keep him away from your carries since these are characters he wants to hunt down. Try to CC him right after he jumps. His empowered W is a hard counter to your CC though, so watch out for his stacks. ”
Court says “If Rengar pounces on Evelynn out of no where early game, she will probably die. Zhonyas will be key to staying alive against a Rengar, especially if Evelynn isn't doing well against him. His self-cleanse will make it difficult to get a kill on him. ”
Eznar says “Dont fight till evolved/invade his Blue since normally they make full clear Red side and in low elo nobody knows what a ward is anyways his mobility in the jgl is what makes him relativly strong
”
MrPeach301 says “Just be careful about his one-shotting late game, and if he jumps on you just alpha dodge it or meditate if its early game (level 6 -11)”
craY13 says “Same as for Kha'Zix. He can snowball very hard. If you manage to keep him small and don´t let him snowball as good as possible you can face him in 1vs.1.”
LePlay says “Typical assassin: Low life, high burst damage, vulnerable to stuns and slows. Try to block his R and his auto attack leap with your W and smack him against the nearest terrain with your E”
kkiskk says “Place a ward in the bush so he can't kite you. Unless you go full tank, you'll outdamage him in early and mid game. If he can't build his item faster than you, he has no damage to you. Watch out for he's 4 ferocity W that remove CC when you duel him, use ignite before he use his W. Get a pink ward post-6 so he can't escape / jumps on your unaware teammates.”
MaRtOOOOOOOOOOO says “He can block your R with his inpowered W. Rengar will mosly farm till he hits 6. He cant gank mid pre 6 so if the enemy midlaner is pushing he is a free gank. You should watch for lane ganks/counter ganks top or bot from him. If you don't have a hard winning lane pre 6 you will have to counter his ganks if not he will snowball our of control.”
Optimal Pancake says “Not as strong as Kha'Zix but will be a threat if allowed to farm and invade. Ward up and wait for your form change before you fight him he outdamages you and everyone else early.”
ElementressX says “Rengar is super dangerous. When fighting him ask for help from other lanes he has more damage than you. Ward heavily and counter gank.”
Violzandre says “Booring, trying to oneshot you, if you can survive her first attack with his R (and that's easy with your R in the right moment), you can force him to a endurance battle that you with you'r lifesteal and mediocre defensive stats, will win.”
Predated01 says “Dumps on you 1v1 early due to his passive and can snowball a lead easily if the Rengar is skilled. Try not to int him early he's one of the few champs you beat the later the game goes on.”
LordTamaki says “He can be pretty annoying if he gets a lead on you, but if you land a w on him or have items yourself he can be taken down. His empowered w acts as a cleanse so watch his ferocity meter.”
Corvux says “Do to the fact that this champion can make use of your brush benefits: Unseen Predator: Grants attacks made in brush bonus attack range and the ability to leap at his target. ”
SpicySkelleton says “Do not let rengar stack their dark harvest if hes got it, counter jungle while building thornmail and sun cape to counter him. And while you fight him don't be afraid to ask for help, the more behind you put him the more you can benefit your team while hes out.”
Loul_60 says “Rengar is not as bad as Kha'Zix, no where near. He cannot gank very well pre-6, even then only with his ultimate. His AoE clear isn't great so look for invasions. He can still 1v1 you though in the early game so be very wary of that, especially if he gets to leap out of a bush onto you.”
L3gislacerator says “Ward up and never underestimate his damage. Be quick with your stun when he jumps on your team. As an assasin, he kills squishy targets quickly, but with the armor bonus and shield that a teammate gets from Bastion, you can protect against him.”
Hunterlogic says “With his buffs he is more of a threat. He can 1 shot you before you can press R. If he fails to 1 shot you it turns around and you win. Build a Randuins if he becomes a problem.”
RAT 4 says “rito decided to give him even more bonus damage from dark harvest so u can just get oneshoted if u are below 50% health even in early nice one! ”
Exhiled says “The new rengar is pretty busted, just don't fight him before 6 and you will still do fine. But he has gotten a lot more damage with his rework.
”
Damosus says “If he gets ahead just farm up. Try to avoid fighting him because you dont win, especially pre 6. Meditate when he ults/jumps and you should beat him. ”
Yi Guide says “He will easily kill you in the early parts of the game. After level 6 you begin to have a chance at winning trades against him. If he's any good, he will try to camp your jungle and 100-0 you over and over... ward as much as you can and play safe. Try to avoid fighting him near bushes and dodge his (E) Bola Strike. Some armor and health can go a long way.”

Tips Against Rengar in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
CosmicTurtle88 says “Rengar OTPs are annoying but they hate you as much as you hate them, just don't get absolutely chunked 1-3 and baited into too much bush chasing. Treat his Ferocity W like GP, try
and eat him if he's holding it so he has to cleanse it and then Q him to slow so he can't disengage. If you don't take bad trades 1-3 against Ferocity Q you should outscale his damage
quickly ”
TENTAKILL ILLAOY says “У него большой сноубол, не дайте ему реализовать это, помните у него куча хила, как и с Маокаем, кустов больше не существует для вас.”
Nino_euw says “plated steelcaps, and if it's too hard to handle the damage you can sit on extra cloth armor that you can build into death dance later on.”
Zorroh says “Rengar matchup can be a pain due to his ability to burst Mini Gnar for insane damage meanwhile mitigating a ton on your end with his W. Rengar loses pretty hard to Mega Gnar so make sure you're looking for opportunities to go in when you have your form up. The best way to trade with him in Mega is to do a full rotation and then back off (unless he's low enough to kill obviously) because he will probably start winning the trade as he gets lower from Conqueror/Last Stand/his W/etc. Make sure to avoid bushes whenever in mini form, the first few times you play this matchup his range my surprise you. Its good to crash the wave into his tower if possible because he won't have any bushes to utilize then when he's shoved into his turret, but most of the time you will likely want to be under your turret last hitting minions with Q. ”
Taiquyorah says “Sauf si broken à cause d'un buff !
L'early est délicat, laissez vous push. Mais une fois quelques items BRUISERS, vous pouvez survivre et lui mettre sa raclé.
Tout comme Jax, il faut préparer un barril loin des bush pour être prêt à lui mettre un combo.
Le stuff bruisers peut le neutraliser en pur 1v1, donc fortement conseillé ! Ignite nécessaire pour ce MU.
Skill MU avec un léger avantage à Rengar.”
Yiphen says “Theory: Start Doran's Shield and go for Plated Steelcaps. You can't do damage if he E + Unleashed E's you from bush. It also cleanses your slow so you can't fully proc it. Try to poke him down, but back away if you can't. Freeze wave in front of tower. Do not dance.”
7EyesNoSkills says “Early game is a big problem, he will always jump near bushes. If you play near to his tower, you can beat him, but you have to avoid ganks. In late game, you will have few armor, shieldbow and exhaust. So he can't kill you, because he is a burst, but you are a DPS.”
WildSamu says “DBlade + Red Pot.
not a very common pick, but a very bad matchuop for Yone.
His damage is pretty crazy and he will permajump on you.
Drop farm, play safe, early armor is good.
Try not to die on cooldown.
Only chance you have is your jungler punishing his push and positioning.”
VituVonDoom says “Dodge, cheese pick that makes every lane hell. I can't even help with this one, never played because I dodge all of them. Still, stay away from bushes, go Conq page, I guess? And enjoy your suffering!”
Michcio says “If he is good he can outplay you most of the times. He can buy ward, recall and take oracle and he will win every fight early on so if he does this tactic avoid fighting for first 5mins ”
NegativePhoenix says “This is more of a smarter matchup above all else. Stay away from his brush as he'll just constantly use it to jump on you for poke. Once you hit 3 you can try to poke him if he pounces you, just be mindful he will try to run back to brush to get you, if that is the case W just outside of brush range and ward it so you can see where he's hiding. I only recommend chasing him into his brush if he's low or you know you can burst him at half health.”
Aberrant Demon says “Respect his early burst. Stay as far away from the brushes as you can early and just let him push. Post-3 you can combo him every time he jumps out of a brush while you have W up. Keep the trades very short, if possible, to avoid letting him jump again. After Stridebreaker, you can stat check him.”
Potent213 says “This matchup changes depending on the Rengar's runes.
If he has grasp and ignite, you want to play for scaling as he is too powerful in lane, give up cs wait for whip and level 6 and u can all in him.
Look to parry his EMP Q or E for the stun.
Care when he is near bushes with stacked fury as he can get a lot of dmg off.
Tabis are amazing in this MU.
Once you get Whip + Anti heal you can really do him a ton of DMG in long trades, he can't beat you in an all in if you use your ultimate.”
Black Demon Ezel says “Rengar is squishy and weak into offensive builds like mine. There's only one thing to do, rend them. Simply let him get on top of you and maybe tank a Q or two but you can mark him so mist walkers eat him alive and absolutely shred him”
Scallywag says “Niche top pick.
Try to pop your barrels when he jumps onto them and you should win most trades.
If you die early this lane becomes unplayable for you.”
queen_rane says “[Ignite + Flash] You might think Rengar counters Mordekaiser because Rengar can escape Morde's R with his empowered W, but if you take ignite and start doran's ring you can win an all in at level 3. Just play super safe early and stand really far from the bushes so he can't jump on you. Once you hit level 3 you can have him jump on you, get your passive, sit on him, press W if you get low, and pull him back when he tries to get into the bush - he should die. This does not work though if you have doran's shield or if you don't have ignite.”
SilverAvalanche says “Outscale: You don't want your jungler to gank you in this matchup, Rengar can easily 1v2 for a double kill, and ending the game there and then. What you wanna do is play like a little baby and respect his jump range. If he jumps on to you then just E him, but don't E back to him or you are dead meat. The only thing I can tell you is that you should try and freeze and spam Qs at him when he walks up to break the freeze. If he freezes then you have to call your jungler since Rengar will never let you walk up. You should go fleet footwork with inspiration secondary for a free stopwatch and biscuit delivery for the health. get Zhonya's second and build Chemtank.”
LoucasTitan says “If you are new just play safe and dont get to close in to the bushes, If you know that Rengar is going to leap on you try to cage yourself and try to kite him”
gazibulle says “Skill matchup, favoured for him in laning phase, BUT if played very well you can deny him. You hard outscale him. Early levels you absolutely want to get away from bushes as he wins lvl 1 on extended trades. Go behind your caster minions, close to a wall, and if he ever jumps on you lvl 1 you can start Q, Q-AA-Q and you will always win it with shield up, as long as you don't overextend. Then you basically stand next to walls all laning phase, and if he ever jumps on you, you can E his jump and will ruin his ambitions. If you succeed, you win the trade. Be careful of Rengar's early power, especially with his insane W healing. W him when he just used his empowered W so he can't sustain it back up. Don't miss your hookshot ever, don't make him dodge it for free with bushes. If you play Ignite or have anti-heal, you can try taking advantage on bushes once you are a bit ahead: a Rengar without bushes to play with is a goose without a beak. Once you have Sheen and Ignite / anti-heal, you can't lose unless he is very ahead. Especially at 6, you can brute force him down as long as you hit your E by locking him in the slave cage, his ult won't save him. With items Rengar means nothing to Camille, if you deny his snowball his game is basically over.”
Federals1 says “Much like Renekton, Rengar is not as bad as people think. He is annoying for the first levels, especially level 1. He has a very strong level 1 and you have to respect it. Try to just e from range and get any cs you can without taking too much damage. You will start beating him once you get some items. Safe options are Bramble Vest and Plates Steelcaps. Bone Plating is also a great rune for beginners. You can also do the cooldown reduction route, with Kindlegem and Ionian Boots. You use cooldown reducton very well on Volibear, but it is a riskier playstyle, as you are not as tanky. He beats you in the late game only with the crit build, unless you have Randuin's Omen, at which point he won't have enough burst to kill you.”
lolkayleee says “[Ignite + Flash]
You might think Rengar counters Mordekaiser because Rengar can escape Morde's R with his empowered W, but if you take ignite and start doran's ring you can win an all in at level 3. Just play super safe early and stand really far from the bushes so he can't jump on you.

This does not work though if you have doran's shield or if you don't have ignite. ”
PandoraPanda14 says “Stay away from the bushes and u can cancel his jump with ur e. Dont underestimate his heals and try to get him to jump on u in ur wave. Minions hurt alot!!”
Nekoparry says “///////////////////////////ENGLISH//////////////////////////
Pretty hard matchup if he is good, try to parry his empowered Q or E so you stun her, buy steelcaps and whip and then you should start winning, you can just play for late game also. Antihealing really helps too”
Fan22 says “Getting early tabis or armor items is very important against Renagr, as it nullifies a large portion of his damage.
Early on make really short trades against him and try to not push the wave, so when it goes to your tower you can farm safely.
Also be very wary of bushes since Rengar top is all aabout going in and out of bushes and harrasshing with an empowered Ability (Generally Q).
Garen's wq is very important in this matchups since it denegates a large portion of Rengar's burst.
Post-6 with ignite if he missplays or is low hp you can kill him, though most rengars will just drop R and run away, so try to calculate your damage to onetap him before he gets to even Ult.”
MHLoppy says “JUMP FROM BUSH.
I'm guessing if it comes to it you can hold your own in a sustained fight, the problem is that he'll just keep hopping in and out of bushes while harassing you a little as well, and there's no easy way to deal with that as Olaf other than to either commit fully or back off a little out of his range.”
Jellyjaneo says “I absolutely HATE the idea of someone being able to jump around like a spider. This cat is the worst laner to lane with just because of that one attack. Can bully you severely early and can cause a huge cs gap and lvl diff.”
Cryniu says “Juega neutral y hacia atrás, especialmente por los arbustos.
Trata de contraatacarlo. Recuerda que por lo general él salta hacia ti.
Prioriza objetos como Botas de armadura, vesta espinosa y vida.
Ojo cuando uses tu E, si tiene sus cargas se quitará su provocación con su W.
Te sugiero usar tenacidad en runas por si te atrapa con su E.
Trata de seguirlo con tu R si él rota con la suya.”
Kocykek says “Be careful of first levels. Grab Bramble Vest as fast as possible. You can W his leap and outtrade him. After Bramble Vest he doesn't really do damage.
”
Helzky says “Rengar does a lot of damage early, however if you land E and W you can kill him relatively easily. If he roams you push towers, if not, you kill him while he's in lane. Make sure you ward bushes and once you hit Level 6, you can leverage your lead.”
OliveeGarden says “Off meta lane that doesn't work out for rengar, let him shove you in or more ideally shove him in. as long as he's not near a bush he cant do anything. do care his damage when leaping though as he can do your health in. take grasp”
magician4444 says “He's your worst nightmare. Just constant jumping on top of you which Lillia hates. If you manage to catch him out in the open you can kill him no problem. Or you can just perma shove him if he lets you so he can't get into the bushes and poke with Q and E as he tries to CS. Watch out for the jungler though,”
ChowJunior says “I recommend going E level 1 and Q level 2. Level 1 and 2 are the hardest parts of this lane. Once you hit 3, he won't win. He'll try to abuse you from the bushes, and when he does, it's an easy predict. Bait him into jumping onto you and set up your E on top of you for an easy lockdown. ”
Xarmat says “Place a trap under your feed and wards in the bush. Trap the entry point of the brush where he wants to jump out. If the farms a minion, punish him.”
Your Desired Username says “Rengar is an easy match-up but you have to take ignite and rush steelcaps. After that he won't really be able to kill you plus not heal with his W. He will usually keep his fury to get an empowered W after you ult him so he can cleanse it. If he does this just don't ult him, you win the fight without ult because he isn't using his fury. The second he uses his max fury, ult him. This should be obvious but try not to fight around bushes because this will allow him to jump around and maybe dodge some of your abilities. He is pretty easy to kill in Brazil as long as you have anti-heal.”
boboderaffe says “In my experience, he jumps on you and dies past 6. He doesn’t have any tools to get away once he jumps in so make sure he can’t 100-0 you. Get seeker’s into steel caps if necessary - as long as you survive his burst he’s a dead kitty. ”
BreadedBreadCrum says “His JumpAA-E-Q-W combo is blocked by your E and your Q stops him from going back in his stinky bush. Build Bramble for armor and sustain block. Take Grasp or HoB to punish or sustain. Go Frostfire to slow him, BoRK or Stridebreaker.”
Rayli36 says “buy chain vest as first item(not counting starting items) and then he'll probably ignore you but if he doesn't you can do short trades with him
AD-dmg”
AlexFL7000 says “Rengar is an extremely annoying top-laner. Your Q does virtually nothing against him, and he will one-shot you during all of the game. Don't get too close to the bushes, or you will die. Try to poke him out of lane if you can avoid being near the bushes. Recommended Items: Zhonya's Hourglass, Plated Steelcaps”
Shinox says “Ban if you are jungle. He will just kill you at any point of the game because he's just stronger than you. He will invade you and kill you while you are clearing camps. TLDR: You are dead, so ban him.”
LunaticDancer says “Cheese lane. Gambler viable, D Shield. If you hit an E at him while he's in the bush, you win the all in, just stand on top of him and catch him with the W. He will regain a lot of health with his W, but after that he's a total sitting duck.”
COJA says “Rengar top is a pain to play vs.
Give up any dangerous farm until you reach lvl 3-4, then you can begin to consider trading. He can beat you in short trades and all ins if you miss a single Q. ”
N0kk__ says “Dog vs Cat. The cat can go in and jump out of bushes. Dog can farm and "TRY" to run away. Rengar Is annoying not only because of the bushes, but because he can his roar to cleanse your wither. He does his combos extremly fast and he can also stun you. Stay under tower, freeze the lane and farm. When 1-2 level avoid going out of your tower zone or you will either lose 50-70% of your health or you will die. Luckily you won't see Rengar Top that often.”
Turkthunder says “I believe Rengar is easy to maneuver or outplay against but once again isn't necessarily easy rather of semi-difficulty. As long as you know how to not completely get stomped early through the middle state of the game I believe you shall be fine.”
Black Demon Ezel says “I don't generally find Rengar a threat, but I've never beaten him while going meta Mordekaiser. He builds pure lethality in case it's not known to you. And that alone makes him dangerous as FRICK! But keep slapping him with Q when you can actually see him or know where he is and you flatten him”
Aizac says “Not sure exactly, I've never had a bad experience but I'm also in pisslow. Statistically, he holds the highest gold advantage on Viego at 15 minutes into the game.”
Prof Harambe says “Absolutely horrendous. You need to farm under tower the entire game and you will never be able to step up. Usually will dominate lane so much that you won't outvalue him. I would ban him very game, but no one plays him since he is quite bad when he doesn't have an ivern.
Pretty self-explanitory why you would lose this.”
ToothlessKnight says “This matchup can be very hard vs a good player who mains Rengar. You win most all ins if you manage to land your E on him. Rush an Executioners to counter his healing from W. Only look to trade if your E is up and be careful of him getting a double Q off on you. His empowered W is a cleanse and counters your Ult as well. Ping whens he's missing and has ult. This is a matchup you learn to fight with experience. ”
xPetu says “Tips: Your W blocks his Q-AAs and his R-AA. Try to block his R-AA because it reduces your (or your allies) armor if you don't W it. Don't E him when he has full ferocity, he can just Empowered W to cleanse it and heal the damage.”
Anoying bro5 says “Do not fight him lvl 1, sit back and let him jump around. You want to parry his empowered Q and dont be afraid to chase him down afterwards to punish him. When he ults, parry as soon as he lands on you. You should win if you ult right after to finish the job.”
Stinkee says “If it's Rengar top lane, he will be jumping in and out of bushes nonstop. He's going to jump to low health minions to last hit them. Just aim your Q over your low health minions while he's in the bush, so he'll either miss the minion(s) or get hit by your Q for a lot of damage and CC. Your E is pretty effective against him as well, slowing him down enough to not let him get back in the bush right away. If he builds assassin, he shouldn't be able to oneshot you. If he goes tank or bruiser he'll be more of a threat. When he ults away, it's not worth trying to chase him, you won't catch him unless you have a teammate on him. If you can consistently Q him at the right times and time or shield correctly you should be able to win this matchup fairly easily. He's pretty hard to kill though so don't greed for kills, just farm up and you'll be fine.”
Sovereign Kitten says “Rengar will win pretty much every fight in the jungle, and you will never be able to contend with him in any regard when it comes to a 1v1 in the jungle. You will lose all attempts to take something from him including scuttle crab, because of bushes. If you get invaded, just give it up.”
BoilTheOil says “You can fight him level 1, but don't even try to fight him when he has 3-4 ferocity stacks. There isn't much of a point in fighting him until you buy a bramble vest because he heals off all the damage you do with his double W, after you have bramble you win. He will probably try to roam after level 6 so make sure you have TP to follow him. Try to group with your team out of lane because he will try to get picks with his ultimate. ”
Phrxshn says “Opt to build tank against Rengar, Rengar has a lot of burst damage potential if he is near the brush. Use Mega Adhesive to prevent Unseen Predator(Passive). (Recommended Items: Plated Steelcaps, Rylai's Scepter) (Sustained 1v1 Battles: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Singed) (Mega Adhesive prevents Unseen Predator) (Fling can override Unseen Predator)”
quinn adc says “Play the lane away from bushes. Ideally, shove him under tower or let him shove so he can't bush cheese you.
He wins if the lane is neutralized.
If he is in bush, E his Q leap, and then when he walks back to the bush, Q him before he enters so that he can't get the second leap off.
This combo is essential to take good trades against him, so only walk near the bush with your E up.
If you go even in this lane it is a big win for you because you outscale him if he isnt crazy fed.
If rengar cant one shot you post 6, you hard win the fight.
Thats why i like bone plating and plated steelcaps in this matchup.”
MagicallyDelish4 says “You have to respect his passive level 1 or else you're going to lose your health bar. Its hard to level one all in him with doran blade. If his W is down then you can all in him after level 6. Freeze wave and ping for your jungler ”
Xerath gaming says “Shouldn't be too hard to beat since if he jumps and you press E he will be so deep in the lane that you can kill him most likely. Your R is free lane, if you feed him early you will get oneshot, but not many people play him top”
Raen says “Try to push fast lane don't let him control bushes cuz he will outdamage you so hard. His W is denying your stun and healing him back from all your dmg you dealt to him. Fast rush tabi and and Sheen for kill potential. Your E block his Q. Anitheal really good vs him. Put wards in bushes to counter him. Get Deathdance to mitigate his huge dmg.”
LoLReal says “Rengar relies on cheese to lane. Darius is a hard counter to him because Rengar cannot take short trades to burst us down, we just pull him back in and trade better.
Easy lane. Beware of level 1 though.”
laoshin3v3 says “Grasp
Try to parry his empowered Q or his empowered E and don't fight him near minions if you stand in bush since he will jump through the whole lane all the time like the autist he is”
A_Drunk_Carry says “You won't see it much, but this matchup REALLY sucks. Top lane is full of bushes, which Rengar will hide in while you try to farm and pounce on you. He can use his roar to cleanse your wither. He can stun and combo you quickly. The best you can do is hide under turret and try to not stay too far behind. Don't risk walking up for CS @ lvl 1&2 or you'll lose half your HP bar. The win % in this matchup in Plat+ is abysmal for Nasus, for good reason.”
Phrxshn says “Opt to build tank against Rengar, Rengar has a lot of burst damage potential if he is near the brush. (Recommended Items: Plated Steelcaps) (Sustained 1v1 Battles: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Malphite) ”
Sporkintahn says “Kitty in Top? Rare but it happens. Don't take early fights when he has his Ferocity stacked. Don't let him take short trades against you. You want to punish him for coming into melee range so extend the trades to where you can out damage him; don't let him just abuse brush against you either. --- This lane is pretty easy; you can often times just run him down with Ghost.”
Phrxshn says “Opt to build tank against Rengar, Rengar has a lot of burst damage potential if he is near the brush. Use Primal Howl or Infinite Duress to prevent Unseen Predator(Passive). (Recommended Items: Plated Steelcaps) (Sustained 1v1 Battles: Even) (Outscaling Edge: Warwick) (Jaws of the Beast can follow Unseen Predator)”
PanthrickTV says “Easy Matchup.
Care about the bushes!
Play really agressive and punish him as much you can!
Spam your Q's at lane and try to all in at lvl 2 or 3.”
OTP Toxin says “This is a fun lane to play. Always be in the low parte of the lane, away from the bushes, he will be going there and jumping for the minions, the trick is: Pay atenttion to the health of YOUR minions, so you can know where he will jump, then you punish him in every jump he does. After 6, plant 1 mushroom in easch of the tri-bush and you will make him cry. :D”
SilverAvalanche says “Free farm lane, he has to push the wave to keep up his stacks.
just respect his jump distance and place ward in the bush closest to you.
when he goes for a minion Q into him and gain orbs that way.
Very boring yet dangerous lane. if he decides to freeze you are pretty much out of the game so spam ping your jungler for help and keep your freeze like your life depends on it, because it does. Also take Exhaust instead of Ignite and stay very healthy.”
Drake6401 says “Avoid bushes and respect his early game. Keep an eye on Rengar's secondary bar. When 3/4 and 4/4, he's dangerous. If he missed combat long enough, he loses his stacks and that's when you trade him. Rengar's W is the main thing that makes him hard. He counters burst fighters... That's you.”
Rhoku says “TL;DR - EASY LANE. DON’T TAKE STUPID FIGHTS AT LEVEL 1/2 WHEN HE HAS FEROCITY STACKS. DON’T LET HIM WALK AWAY FROM TRADES. FREE AFTER LEVEL 3. STEELCAPS IF LOSING.
A Rengar matchup depends on how good the Rengar is. Joe Schmoe who builds lethality every game is going to be free food compared to a Dekar but generally speaking, Darius is one of Rengar top’s biggest counters. All you have to do is to make sure he does not cheese you level 1. Just stand outside of his jump range from bushes. If you don’t know the range, just hop into practice tool on Rengar. Level 1, it is best to give up unless you catch him outside a brush. And even then, Rengar wins hard, especially if he has ignite. Respect his 4 stacks.
Once you hit level 3, the lane should be over. If the Rengar keeps playing aggressively and does not adjust his playstyle, he is free food. The second he goes in for a minion, Q-AA-W, pop ghost and then just mess him up. Try to dodge his E root and be mindful of where the Rengar can jump in order to stop him from outplaying you. If he does a W+Empowered W, just E him back. There is no hope for a Rengar to win this lane. What most GOOD Rengars will do is go for W max and essentially beat you out by attrition because a W+W leads to them taking zero damage and you taking more damage than him. Rengar’s tactic would be to utilize his W to cancel your slows and heal back up the damage you deal to him as a way of poking you down. Just don’t let him walk away for free. Land your Es. Phase Rush works but I prefer Conqueror to help me punch through his healing. One last thing is to keep in mind that he is deceptively tanky. If you ult him and it DOES NOT kill him, he will just heal back ALL of the damage if he has his w up. Get Antiheal if his W healing is a problem.”
RivalOCE says “Beware of Rengar's level 1-3, respect him and let him push the wave into your tower. Stand at your river side of the lane and trade on him when he jumps a creep, but don't overtrade, just Q, auto, W and E away to reset the trade. You can all-in at level 6 because his ult isn't really a combat ult, whereas yours is. Healing cut isn't a bad idea because some Rengars max W for sustain. Try not to fight when he has full ferocity.”
The Rock Titan says “"[Comet, Doran's Shield, Q > W] - Rengar top... is pretty annoying but if you play safe, you can't lose.
- It's somewhat hard to kill him with his sustain but same goes for him. E and W him once he jumps in to trade
- Whenever possible, try to drag the wave towards river, he's much easier to handle if he can't jump from the bushes to farm
- After 6, You might be able to all in him when you have your ult. His ult is pretty useless in lane. Most likely used to run away.
- He can outplay you around those top bushes, and his heal is ridiculous... Gives him the respect he deserves.
- Rengar top players are usually very confident, they want to bully you at the time. This is why he's very prone to ganks. If you have a high damage jungler, he's dead most of the time.
- His empowered W cleanses him, I try to ult him right after he uses it."”
Rhoku says “A good Rengar is such an annoying matchup. You win all ins but he can outplay you so hard. First off, give up level 1. He WILL murder you with his empowered Q. Don't even walk up to the lane. If he goes full damage, you blow him up but if he goes W max, you will just not have a good time into him. He can empowered W your ultimate away and just escape with his own ultimate. He will go in, hit you a little bit and then W+W out, healing back all of the damage that he dealt to you. If you can, just pick Darius into him as you hard counter him. But otherwise, just try to make sure he has to overextend from his bushes. Grab minion aggro and make sure they crash a bit far from the bushes so he has a long way to walk when he gets to his bush. Also, NEVER ult him when he has 4 stacks. Ult him AFTER he uses his empowered W ideally or at the very least, after he uses his empowered ability and is at 0 stacks.”
maxlid3 says “Keep your distance from brushes. Most of the time you won't be able to autoattack him since he is hiding in the brushes and if you come to close he will just jump onto you. If you W him, he will have enough time to go back into a bush and jump right back onto you. Try to let him push and farm under tower since he won't have any brushes there.”
YasTilt says “Really dangerous Character to play against. Ward bushes the best you can. Try to have constant vision on him. Take Anti-Heal to reduce his W's Heal. Try to Freeze the Lane away from the Bushes.”
FeedLaneGetCaryd says “(Bone Plating+Armor+DBlade) You can try to predict his jump from a bush and contest your minion with E. But he can root and full combo you if you don't land E. You are way stronger in midgame than Rengar and the lane isn't really rough at all, just farm him out.”
PK Noob says “Rengar can easily burst you just as easy as you can burst him. Try not to face check bushes and play around your team against Rengar so that when he jumps out you can all-in him.”
jmp_01_ says “Take Conqueror. You can fight him level 1, but don't even bother fighting him when has 3-4 ferocity stacks. There is no point in fighting him until you buy Bramble Vest because he will just heal with his empowered W. He will try to roam after level 6 so make sure you'll be able to follow up with TP.”
Psychopathic Top says “Impossible matchup. There is almost no chance Nasus can even walk up in lane. Try to force him to shove the first two waves, and stand far away from the three bushes in the toplane (even if that means losing xp). He will be up a huge amount of cs and gold once it gets to mid game (if he plays well), and there really is no counterplay to stop it. Make sure to not get solo killed, that’s about it. Teamfights would most of the time go his way, as you will be too behind to do anything. However, if your team stalls over 20 minutes, Nasus scales into 2-3 items and at that stage of the game, Nasus can make a comeback and turn the tides.”
TXK_ says “A rare but possible match-up. Keep your distance from the bushed by positioning yourself close to river. Either freeze the wave outside your turret and next to his as without bushes, Rengar has no mobility. His empowered W will cancel your R so avoid ulting this target.”
Alan234 says “Go the standard PTA build.
Rengar just heals your dmg with w and denies poke by sitting in his bushes. Play towards the river and just farm. Try to either push waves to force him out of his bush or freeze it in front of his tower so that he struggles farming. WIthout the jungler you should win all ins with ignite. Main problem is not dying to ganks and not overstepping into him in lane due to his bush range. Concede a few cs and you will be fine, but its difficult to play.”
aurus666lol says “He will jump a lot and deal big damage. And of course he has annoying all-taken-damage - Heal on W. Rush Exe and try to not play near bush and ur minions. I guess you wont win that lane, so call jungler to help you or its just gg”
JaxIsAHobo says “Depending on the rank(yet again), this can be an extremely easy or somewhat challenging matchup. You cannot leash your jungler in this lane, because you have to run immediately to top lane and into the bushes to get a major advantage in this lane. Stay in the bushes and deny him his leaps for free ferocity stacks. You outtrade him easily in the early->late game, provided you aren't idiotic and let him auto you over and over again from a bush. The only threat you face is if the rengar has a jungle duo, and constantly invades you. I highly recommend taking ignite into this matchup over TP, and building vamp scepter + ruby crystal into BotRK. This is a fairly easy lane if the enemy rengar isn't basically Scrubnoob or Dakar. Honestly, if I didn't get shit on recently in a custom by Dakar 's rengar top, I wouldn't even put him as a minor for difficulty.
If you somehow lose this lane, build plated steelcaps and get sunderer. Please don't lose this lane below masters. It's sad.”
Vandenelis says “use q under yourself when he is about to jump on you from a bush. In this way you can guarantee to cc him. if you don't trade constantly you just out sustain him in the lane.”
Warwick de Crocs says “Press - Lâmina - Flash + TP / Muito cuidado nos 2 primeiros níveis,principalmente se ele tiver de Ignite, tenta morder e dar hits nele quando ele pular pra farmar, rushe colete espinhos e cabou.”
DarkyTheReal says “Don't fight until level 3,don't even try to farm because he will jump to you and one shot ya. Just wait level 3 and put the wave frozen on your tower, and you'll be fine. Level 6 if you have Executioner's calling you're fine to all-in.”
SettVEVO says “Cheese picks are only good if they get ahead. Rengar is no different. Don't go damage against this dude, rush bramble and watch him cry. Don't go near the bush and try to set up slow pushes to keep him under turret where he is useless. Keep his ferocity stacks in check so you don't go in for a bad trade. You aren't on a timer he is. He will get bored if he doesn't kill you so he will roam. Tell your team and win lane by literally not dying, you can kill him if he gets bored enough. Mid to Late you can ult him if he has enough damage to kill your adc.”
Death Lyons says “Digusting. Most rengar top players are really good at rengar, so just play hyper safe and try to kill early but don't get into melee range.”
RTO says “Avoid the bushes and trading pre 6. After 6, you will wreck him. Do not let him snowball. He has a lot of kill pressure pre 6. His cooldowns are also much shorter than yours.”
wff010 says “If he has ignite, he'll win level 1. If not, walk up to the lane bush and cheese him with w because you just do more damage. Buy a control ward and he won't be able to control the urge to int onto it when he sees and just keep punishing him for trying to walk up.”
LoLReal says “He can cheese us early levels but loses hard post 6. Just survive the early lane and you'll have no problem killing him off cooldown with R. Build tabi.”
Marwaii says “Rush anti-heal, kills mini Gnar and can avoid mega Gnar. Do not give him an early lead and outscale him. Make sure to keep an eye on the map for his ulti roams.
Take Trinity + Plated.”
Breadcrumbs says “Never understimate how far Rengar can jump out from a bush. In this matchup, you wanna seek to catch him out if he gets far away from the brush. You can 4 stack, Q to a minion near him and go for the all in.”
SethPRG says “Don't fight this guy Level 1, he just wants to cheese you, so kindly deny him. But I mean, if he doesn't have ignite you can win Level 1 if you sit in a bush waiting for him and learn W. I remember forcing a high elo Rengar one-trick Level 1 to flash by doing this and they all chatted right after "WTF why didn't I beat you lv 1?" Past Level 6 you auto-win because his ult is useless when compared to yours in a 1v1. He still might be able to get away from CC with his built in cleanse or ult invis though. Rengar will become a threat if he roams and gets kills on your team, or you let him get free plates. Pushing into his tower makes it so he can't bush cheese you, that's the best strategy to fight him past level 6, just stack a wave VS him that will slow push towards him then never let him walk up. Be careful of JG ganks, but in all honesty, you can probably win a 2v1. Just rush Bramble Vest and Plated Steelcaps, and first item Trinity Force since he's squishy. Go Death's Dance 2nd item if the enemy has another AD, or 3rd item if he is the only AD. ”
SpartanDumpster says “Rengar can be very annoying because he can practically jump on you whenever without any consequences. I'd say the best course of action would be to hang back and poke him until your jungler can come gank.”
majororange77 says “Full info in Guide.
Very hard to cancel his jump with E, since he's invisibly. Try to avoid giving him passive stacks or he will snowball.”
Kaizin says “In this matchup he'll look to stack his passive and abuse his ferocity empowered Q damage early. Try to pull the wave away from the bushes before they crash. Build bramble vest early to stop him healing through your damage with his W. At level 3 you can take short trades quite easily by timing your E on top of an allied minion about to die.”
I am so chill says “You cant do anything about this guy.Ask for ganks and stay away from bushes.Go safe build like ninja tabi bramble vest etc.dont seek trades with him but when he jumps to a minion try to punish him.”
JeanMichelBambi says “Rengar has decent burst but you can mostly negate it all using your W, you can pull him out of his bushes and most of the time win trades/fights with him at any stage of the game.”
RealIreliaCarriesU says “Rengar has very strong damage early game and can cheese kill you lvl 1-2 if you dont play carefully. Stay away from the bushes and look to soak exp and get farm whenever you can but let him push towards you so you can farm under turret. Stack up your passive under tower and look for fights when it pushes back, you will generally win if you have 5 stacks and land your E, be careful when fighting him in the bushes though, only commmit if you are already winning before he goes there. Easier post 6 since you can just ult him and all in, his ult isn't very helpful other than running away in a direct 1v1.”
tibs2 says “Bramble rush. Rengar does a LOT of damage early levels. Do not try to contest him early at all. Stay far away from lane bushes. Once you complete bramble and some armor items then you can look to w him and trade with q autos. Late game Poppy W really ruins Rengar's day as he cannot r and jump onto your backline as you can simply w him. ”
Noodles912 says “Rare matchup, but can come out of nowhere. If so, stay away from bushes and outscale him. If you time your W, you can prevent his R from hitting and reducing your armor. Easy lane if played right.”
teemodumbstupid says “Early game, he will utilize the bushes to jump at you whenever he can. It is unplayable early game, but once you get Sheen and Lucidity Boots, you will win easily. He is only a major threat because he can snowball easily with his early game.”
Oskarl3 says “although it seems like it is a bad matchup early, just try to predict when he will jump on you and counter it with your E into Q. Your W will give you plenty of survivability.”
SanLourdes says “Rengar can cleanse your ult. Do not ult him unless you know he has already used an empowered ability and it isn't near being fully stacked. He can also heal a large chunk of damage that you deal to him with his E, so keep that in mind. Keep this guy away from the bushes and you will be fine, even if you have to use your E to pull him away from one, it will be worth it. Build regular items.”
negoZoma69 says “You may just dodge against Rengar. He isn't banworthy because he's not a popular pick, but he can kill you easily at every point of laning phase. I recommend going grasp in this matchup and playing as safe as possible, it's worse than akali and irelia.”
SleeplessX says “Stay away from bushes and let him push to your turret, you can easily tap Q when he last hits minions from the bush since you know where he'll be jumping. He likes to roam post 6”
Dorom says “Rengar is super broken. If you're in a match against Rengar as Gangplank, rush Shieldbow and Plated Steelcaps. I am not kidding when I say this matchup is almost unwinnable for you. You have to sit on barrels but he can jump on them so you have to be aware 24/7, super annoying.”
OctavePlayer says “If you play safe and smart, he isn't a threat until he get his r, which counter your shroud. As soon he hit level 6, don't engage unless you have vision on his position”
ChaseMorePlz says “Stay away from the top brushes at level 1-2, he can easily burst (and root) for an easy kill. Play safe so it's not easy for him to latch onto you from constant jumps. You will most likely see multiple champions in your lane attempting to abuse you early on. (so dont let them! :) ”
Pawn Sacrifice says “So few players play Rengar top... it must be a "mono" one, but it shouldn't be a problem for you to face Rengar... you really want him to jump into you, so it's impossible to miss your E... and then he's dead.”
Reformed Ravi says “you should win after 6 just wait for him to cs a minion out of a bush and fuck him up. remember he is an assasin so you should win prolonged trades if done right. be careful of his ignite”
Erenando says “Do not get killed by him with lvl 1. Else your game is over. Take distance from bushes and get yourself Frozen Heart asap such as ninja tabis. You will dominate him in mid - late game.”
GrGamingTeo says “Respect his lv2 lane harassment because he can jump either on a minion to last hit and hide backin a bush or jump on you to fight you and run away. Once you reach lv3 the lane is now yours. Once he jumps on you, you can AA, W and if he continues to fight you or if he tries to run away you canthen use your E and Q, ghost and he is dead. Plated Steelcaps and Bramble Vest are nice options to counter his healing.”
Olaf Only says “Rengar is really strong before lvl 6.
Position yourself close to the river so that he cannot leap to you ever.
Most importantly, NEVER push the wave.”
SpyDaFX says “stay away from bushes, his damage and healing is insanely broken when he jumps out of them. play safe level 1. this lane is all about staying away from bushes. because if you're not close to them he's pretty easy to kill. go Conqueror”
Ravenborne says “Do not die until Level 3, then it is a free Lane. He will probably roam for kills though. There is not enough damage on him to kill you. Just do not let him get free Q jumps onto you.”
TheMrDarkness says “Let him push lv1, you cant outdmg him pre 3, so just let him push, after you hit lv3 toy can cancel his jump by your W, if he's trying to Q you, use your E, ward bushes, and if you need take steelcaps”
MarkFromSingedMains says “Can be flung mid-leap for some wacky interactions. Generally speaking an easy kill if he ganks you so long as he doesn't land either his E or empowered E. Can be baited into jumping from the closest top lane bush into you flinging him under tower range. Laning against Rengar you should avoid those top brushes and hard shove the lane if he's not too oppressive. A Rengar under tower is much nicer than one with access to bushes.”
Razorwir3 says “play very save and stay away from bushes or he will kill u quite easy
it can be hard to get cs in this matchup so u may want to practise it before trying to play against him”
ChevalierArlo says “EVITE os matos no level 1, farme com o E ou distante dos matos, compre pinks constantemente e só use o W quando ele estiver voltando pro mato, nunca dentro dele.”
ModelitoTime says “Stay away from bushes and you win this matchup lol. Farm right on the opening of the river, if he jumps on you just land your E on him and you win the trade, you outscale tremendously ”
kingchas2 says “Play on the bottom part of the lane and keep a deep ward to watch for ganks. As long as you know his jump range you are pretty safe and he won't have much of an ability to kill you. Use your R as he is jumping on you from his R and he won't have any kill pressure for awhile. ”
Deathwizard778 says “Annoying early game but you will destroy him with this build just be carful early game he can get you killed easily with his slow and invisible attacks.”
Raideru says “Very hard matchup before 6, just try to farm until you get tabi / sheen until then you really don't win trades unless he fucks up really hard. U can also build executioners instead of sheen because it builds into the new chempunk item.”
LeSocair says “Really, really hard matchup. I guess all you can do here is stay away from bushes and get xp/try to Q farm and not let him kill you. The only advantage is that Rengar isn't picked a lot in the TopLane. He isn't popular enough for you to waste a ban on him.”
EU_Toxicity says “Don't get cheesed by his empowered Q levels 1 and 2. Level 3 onwards you take over as the big threat in this lane. If he jumps at you/trades with you without full ferocity and ignite, simply auto W and keep hitting him until he uses his W cleanse and hook him back in right after. If you didn't get cheesed early he has no way of winning vs you.”
Timesoul977 says “You are good if your laning against him. But if he is jungle respect his level six and don't over extend. (Watch for bushes, your stun is good against him)”
byThiagus says “Matchup gratis para darius, primer pagina de runas y se puede usar ignite, no mueras en nivel 1,2 despues ganas free, extende las peleas. Rushear vesta espinosa tabis Si estas behind. mientras mas pasa el tiempo mas facil le ganas”
Stijnzxz says “I mean i dont see Rengar top often but he just use the bushes to fuck u up but u can deal some good dmg to him so ur kinda ok just build some armor and BORK.”
TrinityForceYasuo says “Early game small trades -> Respect him -> Space properly -> Do not stay close to the bushes -> Once we get a few items we can let him jump on the cs and take a trade -> Do not look for trades when he has 3/4 stacks -> Exhaust is good here -> Do not ult him when he has 4 stacks because of W. You will ult for basically nothing -> W or dodge his E”
Saarlichenbog says “Rengar is a serious laning threat and can keep up with Kalista's pressure. Like Pantheon, it's more or less his roam potential which really sets him up for success, something which Kalista can't keep up with which is why as long as he doesn't get too far ahead early then Kalista should be able to naturally outscale him by 3 items. Playing away from the bushes in laning phase as a way to make his main gimmick his passive useless in lane.”
Nicklstherealone says “He cant engage you since he needs bushes. Firstly you can just push his lane and on the other hand if he jumps on you in any situation you can E towards him to cancel it. ”
Frostyfps says “Rengar has very strong damage early game and can cheese kill you lvl 1-2 if you dont play carefully. Stay away from the bushes and look to soak exp and get farm whenever you can but let him push towards you so you can farm under turret. Stack up your passive under tower and look for fights when it pushes back, you will generally win if you have 5 stacks and land your E, be careful when fighting him in the bushes though, only commmit if you are already winning before he goes there. Easier post 6 since you can just ult him and all in, his ult isn't very helpful other than running away in a direct 1v1.”
Defensivity1 says “Before level 6 treat him like darius, but also avoid being within his Leap range from bushes.
At level 6 if you bought tabi and some other combat stats, (Damage/HP/Attackspeed/Armor) you will beat him with the maiden.”
TangoVallhala says “I take two paths in this matchup I try to shove him up so he cant use bushes or let him shove me so I can safely farm. If you shove him he cant do much, but you can be ganked easily. If you let him shove you, understand his passive range, play around it, if you him see go in a bush try to predict what he will do, at 6 you can kill him easily, always try to get full combos on him when extends out from a bush.”
ERNESTSAURUS says “FLEET FOOTWORK SETUP - CLOTH ARMOR + 4 POTS =
Rengar top is a real nightmare and can outdamage almost every single melee champ early on but usually Rengar players when they go toplane they don't go for a full Lethality one shot build, they go for a Black Cleaver and more Tanky build. In this lane he will beat you really but really hard if you try to get near minions, so look to stay as far away possible from the brushes. Usually Rengar will build Tiamat to add more damage to his combo and help his wave clear, so wave will almost always be on your side of the lane. You must survive early on to the game, if you give him free kills for trying to get some Q stacks early on, Its already a lost lane and really hard to comeback since he can oneshot you. I've seen couple of them going BORK so be carefull when they have it completed, it deals a lot of damage with Rengar. Similar to Pantheon or Quinn, if he can't get a lead in lane against Nasus, he will look to use his R, so make sure you ping your teamates whenever he is missing from lane to prevent him from getting kills. Later on to the game, you will outscale him if you played laning phase properly and you should look to teamfight in lanes rather than jungle so you stop him from using the bushes, If you fight in jungle, he has more chances of being more usefull and oneshotting your squishy allies. Don't be upset if you are 40+ minions behind him early on, it's the nature of this matchup.”
SubHuman Filth says “this is a very hard matchup.
Play towards river so he cant jump onto you. You should outscale him, so just be patient and play passive.
Go grasp or phase rush.
and get seekers armguard.”
Grayified says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash or Ghost+Flash. Long sword refillable potion start. Stay away from the brush early on! You need to keep out of rengar's leap range in the early game. Rengar top will naturally push towards you because he will try to stack up his passive to put pressure on you. Don't trade with him levels 1-3 he is just straight up stronger! Once you are level 4 as long as you have kept your health pool high you can look for trades against rengar, however he wins short trades so preferably you want to look for an allin on him when he jumps on you. Save your W against rengar until he has used his empowered ability if you are looking to allin because his empowered W can remove crowd control (including your slow.) You outscale Rengar in the 1v1 in the splitpush in the mid-late game, just be careful when he ults for you that you press R on time. One tip for pressing R on time against Rengar is positioning your character when he is ulting towards you in a spot where you can see where he is jumping from. If you are standing next to a brush, or a wall that he can hop over you wont see him until he is right on top of you, but if you are in an open area you will have about a .5 second window to press R if his items can one shot you.”
Nabura says “One of the hardest top lane matchups, however, no one plays him top. not much to say other than REALLY respecting bushes and reacting fast enough to R when he jumps on you with his R. Just be careful that he doesn't walk into melee range of you to bait you into panic ulting.”
EntxRecoil says “Lethal Tempo Runes and Build. Ignite + Flash or Ghost+Flash. Long sword refillable potion start. Stay away from the brush early on!

Chili Dog says “Runes: Electrocute, Sudden Impact, Ghost Poro, Ravenous Hunter + Shield Bash, Bone plating or Conqueror, Triumph, Alacrity, Last Stand + Shield Bash, Bone Plating.
Sub Runes: CDR, Damage, Armor or Damage, 2x Armor
Summoners: TP, Ignite, Exhaust
You don't see much Rengar Top anymore other than Korea however, he occasionally comes up so he is included. He does some insane amounts of damage early as he is an assassin + a jungler. Your best bet in this matchup is to fight in the bush if you do decide to engage. But, if you are just sitting back, farming and he jumps on you, EQ to tank the damage and stun him at the same time. Make sure you buy control wards for deep river so you can use your regular wards on lane brush. ”
Darrkescru says “Runas : Grasp , Eletrocutar
Tenta puxar a lane ao maximo e mantenha distancia dos matos rusha armor ou vida pra não tomar ik pra ele
Rushar : Liandry's , Tabi”
ZergDood says “He didn't expect you to pick Poppy. If he hides on a bush, be ready to W. If he ults you, be ready to W. He has a skillshot that slows you, try avoiding it, but it won't mean doom if it hits. Build tanky, you can easily poke him down with your Q and passive. Respect his damage before first back. When in teamfights, he won't be able to do a lot when you're around. Protect your team from him in teamfights, you nullify him. Your W stops his dash. This is an ideal matchup for Poppy, stop him from reaching your teammates, you'll succeed.”
qazx1427 says “This is a pretty funny lane, watching him constantly jump out bushes. It's like playing peekaboo with a baby, but the baby is you, and you have a shovel. If he gets his combo off onyou, you're not going to have any fun, but it's a free kill if you can land your W. A rare lane, but definitely a fun one. Bring control wards.”
HIGH TEST TOP88 says “You can go cloth 4 here if the enemy jungler is AD, there is no need to fight him lvl 1, just try to auto him when he jumps out of the brush to farm and dont go for any dumb lvl 1 brush allins.
His ult is useless 1v1 so at 6 you automatically win.
You eventually want bramble vest.
Take armor.”
Mrobby says “EUNE Rengar special, I haven't seen a Rengar pop off and usually they just feed if they are playing jungle, I dodge 100 per cent of the time when this champ is picked by my jungler unless they are smurfing. If you want to beat him just dont get cheesed by his absurd early game and hope that whoever is playing him doesn't have a clue what they are doing (which is most of the time).”
wallobear53 says “Avoid the lane brushes early on as abusing them is the main way that Rengar gets a lead in this lane. You may want to place a ward in the nearest brush and farm from the opposite side of the lane when possible.
If you have any form of point and click CC, use it on him as soon as he uses the brush to jump on you. He most probably won’t have his empowered W if he tries to all-in you with an empty resource bar, so do your best to displace him away from the brush and to your tower.
Once Rengar hits level six, he will try to roam with his Ultimate and secure kills in the other lanes. Let your laners know as soon as he leaves the lane and make sure you have a Control Ward somewhere around your lane to detect where he is going.
”
Doktora says “Rengar is bad boy if he play on top it willbe verry hard on you,but if you trap him in your W to make a little combo 2 times max 3 and he is dead. :) rengar is junmping and try to root to make he is combo on you.If you poke him and he have to use stacks for heal not for dmg,Then the lane is yours. :) ”
BloodyDream81 says “Match up assez simple, si tu veux t'assurer de le tuer facilement, empêche lui l'accès au bush un maximum, et quand il saute pour prendre un last hit, utilise ton E et ton fantôme pour la chasser sur la lane et le tuer ! Soit juste prudente les 2 premiers niveaux, où il peut éventuellement te tuer si il joue avec un embrasement !
Astuce : Les tabi ninja et de l'anti heal facilite grandement le match up ”
Gnarcisist says “A skillful Rengar will out damage you and his empowered W will negate your ult. Combine this with a smart JG and they will shut your lane down”

bakk0n says “A solid response to a Mordekaiser pick, whilst not that popular, Rengar's incredible burst damage and high mobility, not to mention hard CC and self peel makes him a strong pick against Mordekaiser. He is not an extreme threat, however, because of said burst. If he doesn't land all his skils and does not manage to insta-kill you, you can easily turn around on him with E+Q+AA+Passive(With Phase Rush) and deal a massive amount of damage. ”
WatchersGrim says “Rengar will ultimately tear through you in the jungle, be aware of your jungle and ward!!! Having vision on rengar is good and timing your ult against his will be in your favor.”
Kingarthur720 says “Hes a champion very much like katarina, feast or famine, he is either the 1v9 carry or he is the bait. you usually cant play far enough away from the bushes where he cant leap to you, the only thing i can say is use your normal wards as much as possible for when your jungler comes he cant jump to them like control wards unless he has oracle lens.”
VIP Titan says “Rengar is acutally a counter for olaf in top lane. With his great burst of double Q and sustains attack speeds
and his W can heal off half of your E damage.
Tips:
Stacks armor like you do for GP. Max E and wait for his bar goes down. Especially no W its the time to strike up
Max E not Q ! ”
Itreallyhim says “Skill matchup, If he jumps on you, Instantly shield, He can Empowered-W Your ult, so be wary of that, But try to remove him from your adc if they live, ult him ASAP.”
Asoreth says “Rengar is one of the easiest lanes against a Shen. Rengar jumps out of the bush? Just fight him and there's not much a Rengar can do when out of the bush and your W active. Whenever he jumps, you can proc your empowered Q and deal lots of damage. Rengar should never win this lane.”
ForgottenProject says “You lose Level 1, respect his damage and don’t try to trade
Parry one of his Qs to slow his AS and reduces his damage by a lot if you parry his empowered Q
When he has Ult, Parry as soon as he jumps on you
Against AD Rengar: You can burst him and win
Against Tank Rengar: He won’t have the damage to kill you, so you win anyways
In High Elo, kindly ask for ganks because Rengars are very hard to lane against”
Braddik says “Rush ninja tabi bramble vest and you can fight him. Otherwise there's literally no hope, stand on the opposite side of the wave and try to farm what you can. You'll outscale eventually.”
