RENGAR REWORK just doesnt fly
every change made to rengar just doesnt fit. other then the bonetooth. but at the same time there were some good things about the old bonetooth, like extra leap distance for one. his q doesnt crit. it takes up time. feels like u are stuck in postion. i dont play with fastcast and now i have to change my q to fastcast just for it to feel less awkward. on top of that the w that heals only damage taken now is kinda useless. its pretty much roll the dice and see if you get some health back. meaning u have to use it when u get in there otherwise u wont have a empowered ability ready. on top of that on the first w they might not even engage u at all, so u dont gain anything from the w drop. also it says that u gain % health back of damage taken in last 1.5 seconds.1.5 SECONDS. considering that the average reaction time is 1 second, that gives people .5 SECONDS to decide if they want to press w or not. on top of that at lvl 1 its a 20 second cd. so once u jump in there and try to get work done u have to wait 20 seconds before you can try and get another empowered off. and thats if you actually hit the two skill shots and blow your w and if you jump from a bush that isnt warded. now people have said if you do the math his q is doing more damage now. and most likely it is. but u guys royally flushed him down the toilet. now his R is completely useless. just in the few games ive played ive died about 30 times while in ult mode. on top of that u might as well be in plain view when u use it, cause once u press r, the nearest enemy champ gets a warning sign. I could be at base and press R and the nearest champ would pick me up. on top of that now if they are close to u, they have vision of u. u can flash away but then they just flash to match ur flash and your ult cant do anything to help u out . well i guess if you were near a jungle camp that could help. but again they get ultra extreme heads up notice that you just pressed the R button and most of the time they just back off or if there is two of them they just wait for you cause they are ready for you to pounce. there isnt such a thing as diving 5 champs killing the adc and running away now. i thought thats what a rengar does. and if he gets caught then he pays. but now you run in and the someone knows and if u get remotely close they see you and you die. and when i mean they see you i mean you got too close and they have vison of you. even if it was ever so briefly. plus now that the q is so slow most can just flash before you press the q. u leap in from ult mode and it counts as an auto so i guess u get that. but they gone or you get auto condemned before your q goes off. and even if it does go off and u magically land your two skill shot and blow your w lifeline i dont see a payoff. the only times i ult in now are when the champs are like 10% health. at least at that health i have a chance to get a kill. I would have loved to see something like a kalista hop added to rengars e. like a hop in any direction rengar wants to go only if the bola finds a mark. that would at least give him something to do in lanes. not just relying on bush to leap from the bola hop would help him escape or help him engage onto and enemy. even make it like iverns leap when he hits the bola. or like kalistas hop when he wants to move away. i have lost all hope in the rengar rework. i thought i would try to relearn him for a third time. but i dont think i even want to try. i had probly 3000 games played as rengar. to have that much time invested and to have him just changed on a dime. rengar is about get in, get out or get in and keep on getting in until you die. to make my point even better you put rengar and kha in drag pit. both lvl 1 no masteries no runes both just with q, i bet kha wins 100% of the time. change him back or at least change the q back in the least. overall i think the rework just doesnt work. you just didnt change him right. he is the ultimate assassin and yet he feels like a fighter now at the least i guess.... very upset and disappointed....
