I don't know what counterplay he has unless I'm in 5 premade game and we ward entire map to predict his movement. His ability to jump from nowhere and instakill any target is just rediculous. Is he balanced for you?
Slythion3 votesRengar is actually struggling right now lol http://champion.gg/champion/Rengar/Top
dEAdbUs1 votesShow me azir winrate pls and say that he's weak too. Btw nobody playing rengo top nowdays.
Slythion1 votesYou can't compare the most difficult champion in the game that will always have a low winrate due to the extremely low win rate of new Azir players to someone like Rengar
If you had even bothered to click the huge "JUNGLE" link right above the huge "TOP" letters in the link I had given you then you would know both Rengar top and jungle have a bad winrate that doesn't actually break 50% until the 40 minute mark which is really late

WoonStruck1 votesHe'll rise again, get nerfed, and the cycle will continue.
Don't worry.
And when he finally hits his final resting place, Riot hopefully learned not to ever pull him out of that hole like last time.
MLDzXnRRR1 votesHave you seen Rengar without ult trying to teamfight in the open? He can't reach anyone. Pink wards and armor will save you every time. Instant stuns also destroy him - Annie, Lissandra, all the CC supports,
dEAdbUs1 votesYes, I've seen - any fight in jungle or fight for baron/dragon. Rengar now has buffed hexdrinker and mercurial to stay alive vs Annie or liss.
disregardable1 votesHe's balanced in Bronze at least. I haven't lost a game against a Rengar or won with one on my team in a long time. He can kill anything really quick, but he can't take objectives for shit. Eventually the enemy team will just 5v4 Rengar's team while his ult is down and push quickly to end.
dEAdbUs1 votesYou haven't - that is a nice argument.
He can take objectives easy - drake for example.
How can you push anything with such long death timers? After rengor ult at least two of you are dead, and while you ressurect rengo team will take your towers.
Variks the Loyal1 votesThe entire team should be warding anyway. Warding, which happens to be Rengar's counterplay, is something that should be standard procedure for every game. That's why Rengar is hardly played in high elo.
He's a champion that punishes your mistakes of not warding. Take this lessons and learn how to ward. Even if you're the ADC. Ward.
Rengar is cheesy and squishy. Never roam alone. Ward. Build Guardian Angel. Pick champions with crowd control. Be smart. Don't ask for dumbed-down counterplay.
Knifecat Reborn1 votesThe last nerf on Rengar with his Bola was actually pretty significant to his general play-style. Although everyone usually plays him as a straight assassin and builds as a burst champion, Rengar can be built and play extremely well as a bruiser such as Renekton. Although you may not just instantly burst anyone, you can still do a ton of damage while being able to take it at the same time, and further help your team in teamfights. Hydra doesn't even need to be a key-core first item the most feel the need to rush. Although even then, I would always include Hydra at some point regardless in his build as a first, second, or even third item if need be just because it really does work well with his kit. If you would like to try it out, here is my general build for him as a tanky-brawler. Hydra, boots (whatever is needed for the enemy team comp), Maw, Dead Mans, Black Cleaver. And the final item can be what you want. If its a heavy ad team, build sunfire or thornmail, if they're heavy ap, build spirit visage. if you're just really far ahead, build an ad item like deaths dance. Obviously you're not going to play Rengar into just anyone, so don't think that. He can be good against alot of champs, as long as you play really cautiously instead of aggressive. Most other top lane champs have the edge on him at level 2-3, so poking with jump and q at level one is always good.
~ Yes I play him top lane.
