People don't complain that Rengar one-shots ADC's.

People complain that Rengar one-shots ADC's in the time it takes for the ADC to blink.

Also, 500 armor is no match for a item 3035 .

That rengar didn't had item 3035 , but item 3031 item 3031 instead

Rengar can tear through tanks 1v1 just like any other DPS assassin.

If you didn't focus him in the 6 seconds he spent autoattacking your tank then you're the one at fault.

Angry Monster7 votes

see this is where the problem lies. Tanks should be able to survive assassins. Why does everyone get to kill the tank? ADCs are supposed to kill tanks, mages are supposed to kill tanks, assassins get to kill tanks.

Before you start juggernauts are not tanks.

Juggernauts are a subset of tank that trades utility and mobility for damage.

Retillin3 votes

But do they trade utility?

mord has the utility of a dragon and boosted speed plus a shield. garen has op healing. armor and mr scaling w, and a silence. darius gained more utility with heals with juggernaut and skarner got more utility with map powerups

While they do have limited utility, you have barely mentioned any utility, but their tankiness and damage. Utility helps the team, such as Darius' pull, Garen's silence, Skarner's E and R, and Morde's W. None of these compare to, say, a Nautilus with his Q, E, R, and passive, or Gragas with his Q, E, and R.

no they are a subset of fighter that trades mobility and utility for more damage.

tanks are defined by their lack of damage and high utility.

How was Rengar able to basic attack Rammus that much and not either be dead or about to die?

Because thornmail is shit lol

Tearing apart a Rammus with any melee autoattacker lategame isn't particularly hard because of the shear amount of armor pen available, item 3071 +item 3035 = 55% of the target's armor going AFK

Plus, since black cleaver reduces armor and a lot of rammus's and now thornmail's damage comes from his/it's armor ratios so black cleaver reduces the total damage rammus would deal by around 10~15%

Rammus : 500 armour

BK = 30% reduction

Rammus new armour = 350

LW 35% + 6% from mastery, which adds up to 39% rounded down from reduced effect. Penetrated 135 armour

Rammus new armour value against damage from people with LW= 215

Thorn mail not affected by Penetration using 350 armour.

15% dmg before reduction + 25% bonus armour (55-65 dmg) (100 dmg at 500 armour, not counting base armour, only bonus)

But if you look in the match history, Rengar had 320-350 damage and near 100% crit. 500 armour is 85-90% resist.

So OP is in fact wrong, Rengar did not shred Rammus as he would have 200 or so ad from passive and be reflecting 125 + 80-110 damage every time Rengar hit him + Rammus AA (this is not counting Rammus W which deals damage too) Rammus would bend Rengar over and show him who's boss.

OP is just making up bull, but the guy above is correct those two items technically reduce your armour by 55% or so.

PiVoRx7 votes

I've noticed theres something about rengar armor penetration when he ults.

I've made once a tank yi (i know its not best example) with 300 armor (thornmail, FH, Omen) and decent health pool, i prepared myself as soon i see rengar ult mark. He jumps on me, i use W with 65% damage reduction, 300 armor and i just.. dissapeared instantly, like i dont have any damage reduction at all.

Even allistar with his ult doesent last much longer, im sure everyone have seen renag tearing entire team apart right after he one shots adc.

I got feeling like his ult has a bug that gives him 100% armor and shield penetration or something.

Or this champ is just retarded in general..

tl;dr OP posted exaggerated information. Rammus' build had Thornmail as his ONLY armor item, the rest were mr/hp.

Less we forget that Rammus gets a massive armor steroid on his defensive curl. He was marking in roughly 515 armor with his power ball, and why in the hell are you saying all he had was thornmail? you're the one exaggerating, he has randuins and frozen heart combined with his defense curl. So if you plan on giving an example you need to point out facts.

And you're talking about the wrong game btw, the game where he lost as Rammus not won.

Axis the Dragon3 votes

Wrong game. The one where there's only a thornmail against a veigar had a Rengar called ArkanTheSword, not Hansol.

The Rammus against Hansol had Thornmail, Randuin's and Frozen Heart, which, adding DBC, is very much enough to reach 500 Armor. Rammus was full build in that game.

Now whether or not OP was exaggerating, that's another issue entirely, but yeah, just wanted to give you a heads up.

I feel like OP left out some context like the 15 kill lead that Rengar had amassed.

still 500 armor should mean something against any kind of lead.

He survived about 6 seconds. That's all survival does these days, penetration has been buffed, defenses have been nerfed, even thornmail is crappy now unless vs a full ad team and you are the tank, but only because they are full ad

LeeDark3 votes

He didn't have 500 armor. Like many knee-jerk whiners on the forums, the OP GREATLY exaggerated the situation.

With Rammus' Items combined with his Defensive curl he had 500. That is normal amounts for Rammus.

It does.... 6 seconds vs 1 to 2 seconds.

Also a lot of people don't understand that Mr and armor mean little without health.

Plus 1 on 1 dps will beat the piss out of a tank. The tank's job is to survive long enough for the threar to die.

Axis the Dragon2 votes

He had plenty of Health, though (Cinderhulk, Randuin's, Banshee, Locket, along with FH and Thornmail. Probably sold his boots considering how late the game was getting)

Need Gold 4 Tent3 votes

any kill leads will be invalidated lategame because item slots. yes rengar can swap items a few times (swapping ga for ie every time it's on cd or something like that) but in the end, he still has 6 items. the 0/20 rammus would eventually (if the game lasts long enough) have a full build that he painfully builds up, so any argument that "he's 30/0" only works up to a certain point in the game.

Vekkna3 votes

I had a game about 3 days ago where I was playing Singed

Rengar was jumping on me and 100-0 in around 1 second when we were both max level and full build. Yes, the Rengar was fed by late game, but once everyone's level 18 and full build, it shouldn't matter much anymore.

My build was: item 3512 item 3742 item 3040 item 3047 item 3116 item 3151

Another bitch I had about this game is that I killed Yasuo in lane at least 5 times and another 3-5 times throughout mid game. He ended up 13/21/18 by doing nothing other than following Nautilus around and mashing R. He couldn't land a Q to save his life, and he was obliterated in lane. But it doesn't matter when you can mash R and get fed for doing nothing.

Bouncemaster Zac3 votes

Basically. Rengar is one of the most busted champs in the game by a mile, and there's next to nothing you can do against him.

Wicked Waffle2 votes

First of all, how the fuck does Rammus get 500 armor at level one? Assuming that Rammus was level 18 and at full build, Rengar would've killed himself. Which leads to my other point, Rengar doesn't have ult at level one, nor armor penetration. As such, because Rammus takes ~95% reduced damage with 500 armor, not counting the Thornmail damage and his W, it would be impossible for a level 1 Rengar to outduel a Rammus with 500 armor.

OP said Rammus got teared apart LIKE a level 1.

Wicked Waffle6 votes

Then what level was the Rammus? Level two? The OP is exaggerating to extremes.

IcyPepper31 votes

Let me put it like this:

OP is using a metaphor *simile to say that his 500 armor Rammus was teared apart so fast that his level, his items, and his abilities didn't even matter to Rengar.

It felt no different than if Rammus had been level one, that's how terrible it is.

Don't take metaphors similes so literally.

OP is still exaggerating. A 500 armor Rammus was not one shot by a Rengar. It would take someone really gullible to believe that without any proof whatsoever.

I've honestly probably never played a game with you, when you comprehend how many players are online at one time 24 hours a day it's highly unlikely to remember one person unless you're a grudge holding person.

Not referencing you, and by team I mean there is an organization called tactical gaming and I believe LeeDark was on my introductory squad. He would play sona support every game, walk into the second bush and then get killed by some leona graves lane or something like that over and over again. When the squad leader would try to correct him he would tell her that he was right and she was wrong and it really ground on my nerves. Could be a different person though with a similar username. Who knows?
