Riot, please don't remove the Hunt in the upcoming Assassin rework

I know Rengar is going to be receiving major changes in the update, and I expect that Bonetooth Necklace will be changed or even removed along with his ult, but PLEASE dont remove the Hunt and his interaction with Kha'Zix. I don't play either of those champions but I was thinking about that today and how it is the only actually gameplay altering Easter egg, and while arguments could be made against it, I just feel it's been an awesome part of League for as long as those two champions have coexisted and I hope it will be kept through the Assasin roster update.

We'll be keeping the Rengar/Kha'Zix quest after the assassin update. That style of quest's got some issues, which is why we haven't added a lot of new ones despite that one being good fun, we don't currently have any plans to remove it though. Will have to make some updates to it to account for kit changes however.

so basically its being turned into a quest like sejunia/ashe/anivia/lissandra type deal, where its there, but meaningless. "package available"

you're removing the free stats and build up associated from it in order to make a more balanced core kit.

No, I'd expect it'll still have gameplay benefit for Rengar if he's successful. Current plan is that Kha'Zix's bonus will still be the 4th evolution point for example.

Can you make it so only kills count for the Hunt? It's kinda lame for the Kha'Zix to hit Rengar once, then his team obliterates him and Kha'Zix still gets the buff for doing no real work.

Very Hard EngageSep 2, 20161 votes

but why would you feel the need to deny either of them part of their kits for not racking up kills?

If Rengar or Kha'zix is not in the game, can we have a purchasable (at level 16) called Rengar meat and Kha'zix Head

Rengar's meat... I never knew Kha'Zix felt for Rengay that way.

Have you considered changing the 4th point to give Kha something better? Because for Rengar what he gets is something he can accomplish regardless if Kha is in a game or not if he gets enough kills but for Kha its very beneficial for him since he can get all his skills evolved. Personally I feel like he should be able to evolve all his skills regardless of if there is a rengar in his game or not.

Is it still planned for Rengar to get a Head of Kha'zix as the reward? And if so, any ideas you all are tossing around that might be interesting? (regarding bonuses gained from the head)

What sort of issues bud? You mean gameplay/balance issues? Or technological limitation issues? Or some other type of issues we're not aware of.

Cheers have a great day

Here's to hoping you don't let the Rioter who worked on Quinn (and lied when he said he would make her less toxic, this coming from a Quinn player) work on Rengar. You're promising to make him more interactive, just don't turn into the guy who reworked Quinn and go completely back on everything he said to me and the rest of the Quinn players.

Still waiting for her to get fixed.

also plz give Rengo a better reward kha's is so much better :3

without stealth or brush ,rengar doesnt stand a chance vs kha, especially ult cause it gives less counterplay to khazix but khazix has more viability when choosing how fast and when/where to leap

LitAFSep 1, 20164 votes

So I know Khazix gets a 4th evo but whats the interaction for Rengar??

TehNACHOSep 1, 20168 votes

Kha'Zix's head, which is a maxed out version of his necklace that can't lose stacks.

Yes, you read that right. What happened was that his necklace got reworked later and they never updated the Hunt after that.

I mean, they added a feature where he gets bonus vision range while in bushes, but it's kinda useless in comparison to Kha'Zix.

ReZisT LustSep 2, 20162 votes

He doesn't lose stacks when he dies btw which is y every kill for death for death is worth for rengar

TehNACHOSep 2, 20162 votes

Now he doesn't.

Was not the case before.
