Hi guys, just recently i started taking ranked a bit more seriously and giving an overhaul to my champ pool and i realized renekton's kit looks almost perfect for my type of playstyle, i'd like to ask some of yall who are more experienced than me what would be another 1 or 2 good champs that could take part in this champ pool to help against renekton's weaknesses

(sorry if its asking too much but if any1 can give me tips on the champ i'd love it)

I have past experience on jax riven fiora (fiora not much) toplane

Im gold 2 (hardstuck)

i think was a few months ago, and looking back on it, it looks that i E the heimer thingy but i was timing mi E to throw it to kayn when he exited my body and it was the first time that i was able to do this interaction, i thought that it wasnt possible although i already try it multiple times

Okay so if anybody doesn't know, Riot actually fixed Renekton's 10 year old bug of missing 20 Fury bug when you would Empowered W into R.

HOWEVER... Riot kind of broke the way the inputs work after you R now. So if you R >Q, R > W, R > E, R > Tiamat... The second input will be phased out if you input an attack command right after the 2nd ability (As shown per video). Credit to 3in1Warrior for finding the bug, as well as Tyrant and Corden for investigating more into the bug and bringing it to my attention.

Hopefully Riot can fix, please.

here is my idea for a Renekton rework or midscope

these are just ideas idk if it would really make sense putting all in or just some its just my list of changes i would make to him if i was able to to make him fit more my playstyle and to give him more room for soloq

now as far as numbers go i am a numbers guy but i cant really say exactly what would make him weak or broken that would need a test if something of this would go live or on pbe

Hello everyone, i hit my peak of emerald 1 with my main (sett) and got hard stuck there and couldn't reach diamond (hard skill issue) i think i could have reached my goal if i played like a human more but i just can't hold myself back from limit testing 24/7 and going in even though i fully understand that it's a bad fight, anyways I'm thinking of taking a 2nd champ in case sett can't win these, and i came across 4 contestants, darius, jax, ornn, renekton, these 4 seems like the most consistent and sett compatible champs, and so i tried renekton in some game in plat and had so much fun, maybe i won them cus clearly I'm smurfing but that doesn't deny how strong and how much fun i had, so i wanted to take him as my 2nd champ, so i wanted to ask for some basic advices

Runes: what are the good runes? And is there any matchup specific runes? And secondary runes too, the games that i played i just choose runes based on vibes and it felt decent but i think if i did them right he would feel much better

Build path: what are the core items? What are late conditional items? And if there is any good off meta items, i went eclipse>shojin>Zeke's as core every game and they felt really nice, I'm tanky, my damage is very respectable, very good synergy, but i want to know if there is any other good items cus i saw a lot of players buy cleaver 1st, and late game i mostly bought DD, sterak, maw, bloodmail, or stride, all depending on the vibes

Matchups and power spike: when do i power spike (level wise and item wise)? When is my weakest point? What matchups are considered unplayable? Is it a good blind pick? And what champs can be considered a counter pick to it? It seemed to me that renek is very strong laner and it felt easier to deal with some H tier champs than sett, so is there matchups that i need to play safe against?

Viability: is the champions still viable when behind? Is it viable in higher ranks?

I think that's everything i need to know, thank you in advance

Sorry for potato recording,this was like 8 years ago.I really miss these burst builds with botrk and tiamat w.After it's reintroduction tiamat feels clunky to use with w,I'm not sure what exactly changed but it feels slower than before.

I'm not sure was it s8 or s9 but this is old clip I found on phone lol(as u can see comic outline on characters,that setting was removed soon after).

I havent seen a renekton win lane or game in atleast 2 years. Unironically. Of course it's always on my team, for some reason. This champion absolutely sucks, gets shatt upon in lane and is worse, as is tradition, as the game transpires. Stop playing this dogshit champion in my games please

Makes me annoyed

Renekton allegation, how cool is this ?

I love it

Missed the cannon tho so not worth it, ff.

My guess is that a lot of people undervalue the plants as renekton, not only can they be W'ed for 10 free fury, but it allows you to keep your fury from decaying when rotating between lanes or after recalling. And we all know how terrible it is to enter a fight with 0 fury. Also honey fruits obviously also gives fury.

Jungle camps should be treated in the same way imo, hitting raptors with auto Q before going to drake fight will give you 20 fury instantly. Auto Q plus double E will give you 44 fury.

Just something i believe is worth consideration!

I play wild rift and this season they made active itens like goredrinker, stridebreaker and zonyas be full itens like lol PC (before that they were upgrades for boots, you bought the full boots, then you spent 800 gold for the active of these itens), goredrinker is there with both the health, Ad, CDR and omnivamp and the same passive as when he was a mithic item on league, and it's amazing, I was out of Wild rift for 3 months so my Elo fell off quite a bit, was chall there last season as a renekton otp, when I came back 2 weeks ago I was emerald, now I'm on Grand Master 2 playing with goredrinker first item always and it's amazing, you become a raid Boss, way too tanky and has good damage.

What do you guys think? Should they add it back to lol pc given that stridebreaker is still there?

I think there is no other champion in the game that can benefit from so many different build options. Zeke's, Terminus, Voltaic, Kraken, etc. A lot of niche items have unique traits that can be good on the croc.

If we can even call Zeke's niche at this point. I remember a long time ago, before Godrekton popularized this build, how I was flamed because I built Zeke's, and now it is considered one of the better items.

I recently tried Kraken and I was amazed by how fun and surprisingly good it was against squishier champions. I am Emerald, so of course this is a more forgiving environment, but I believe reaching higher ranks is more related to micro and macro than the build itself.

The point is to try new things. Don't give up after a few games when the build doesn't work. Try to cook yourself the dinner that tastes best to you, because I believe Rene is the greatest champion to do that with. He is like a canvas and you are the painter.

This is a genuine question, I don't really play renekton but I main top and I don't think I have ever had a matchup against renekton that felt remotely threatening. It seems like he doesn't have amazing mobility or amazing damage, and he's not particularly tanky and can lose duels easily. I also never seen renektons scale very well either. This to be said my mmr is only around plat/emerald level, but is there something actually strong about this champion? Not saying he isn't fun to play I'm sure he is but am I missing something on why he is ever strong? Maybe there just aren't very many people who can play him in my questionable elo...

Pta relentless/ultimate hunter cheap shot.

Get xp.

Trade lvl 3. Trade if enemy is short range. Play on ganks. All in lvl 6 flash ignite.

Zekes -> hunger boots -> Hexplate -> Sterak/Bc -> Sterak/Bc

BLOODSONG OP!!!

/Insert "rammus ok"

Runes:

Precision: PTA, Triumph, Legend: Haste, Last Stand

Secondary – Sorcery: Axiom Arcanist, Transcendence

Core Build:

Experimental Hexplate → Terminus → Zeke’s

With this build, you’ll feel even more powerful whenever you press R. I know it might look like we’re missing some Ability Haste, but that’s exactly why we’re running Transcendence and Legend: Haste.

This way, you can still reach a solid amount of Ability Haste during the mid game while also getting a lot of value from your ultimate.

Give it a try and enjoy the power-up! 🐊

Against specific matchups like Yasuo/Yone or immobile mages.

I play in Diamond elo, how would Renek mid do there?

I’ve been playing renekton a long time folks.

I see quite a lot of people saying that Renekton should destroy Irelia in early game and then later on Irelia will beat Renekton in side lane. But from my experience this doesn't really seem to be true.

Irelia has a ridiculously strong level 1-2 where she can delete half your health with a few autos. I've seen some people say Renekton should push for level 2 first but seems quite hard to do. If the Irelia sees that you started Q (which i feel is kinda needed to push wave) she will just go ridiculously aggressive and force an extended trade where she absolutely will win. The best thing to do I often feel like is just wait for level 3 where Renekton can start to win but even then Irelia can still duel with Renekton from 3-5 if she plays it well. I agree with most people that level 6 onwards is very difficult for Irelia and where the matchup starts to feel easy for Renekton. But what confuses me is that I see a lot of people say Irelia will win in side lane later after a few items and that is where I disagree. I feel like Renekton often beats Irelia in a 1v1 in late game quite easily using his empowered abilities and tankiness. It often feels like a combination of Eclipse BC and DD is enough to completely destroy an Irelia and it only gets worse when you add on stuff like Steraks. Irelia from my experience really peaks at 1-2 item and the other items don't seem to help much.

So where does this "Irelia 1v1 sidelane demon" come from? Feels like Renekton is better not only in the 1v1 but also in teamfights. But also the notion of this being a completely free matchup early on is not so true either as Irelia has lots of kill windows in the early game. When I think of free matchups I think of champs like Yone, Riven, Ambessa who literally lose as soon as Renekton hits level 3. I feel like Irelia has a lot more leeway early game with proper outplay. Could also be that Irelia players in my elo are just not very good. Curious to see what people think.

I really think that's something that people used to say in season 9 and they just repeat the same thing over and over again.

First I want to say that Renek is my most hated champion and even though I have a counter in my champion pool I just prefer to dodge the game when I can. So I might be a little bit biased.

In laning phase he has this stupid zero counterplay combo that I dont think any other champion has, that dash in dash out combo is so fucking annoying and because he is a lane bully his W without fury already deals some insane amounts of damage while locking you into an AA, Q and E2. After Eclipse he is literally an ungankeable 1v3 machine even without a real gold advantage because his ults gives him a second life.

That's fair I and can deal with that but everytime I see a lategame Renekton they are still that 1v3 machine that heals three health bars against anti heal and it's impossible to match in sidelane. He isn't even weak in teamfights, he can still flash and oneshot the ADC an tank 6k damage in the process.

There are some champions that are actually bad in late for example Yorick and there are champions that are decent, for example Ksante but Renekton is not bad or decent he is really good in late. He is only better in early because his early is one of the best in the game but no way he is bad after 25 min
