Rengar overnerfed

po crlh sff··5 votes·984 views

what's with those nerfs? In a single patch riot managed to nerf rengar's burst, ultimate, utility and somewhat his mobility. I could probably live with the Q/ulti nerfs, i mean they at least he gained something in return, but what's the justificacion for that atrocious passive/E nerf?! His winrate was already not that impressive and you gut his utility?! Thanks to the passive "change" you can barely jump to minions and then throw E on the oponent and you can barely juke enemys inbetween brushes since you now always land in front of the enemy. He is way more Unreliable pls revert this

Which his ult nerf doesn't mean much since the new Assassin item compensates it.

Man even with all these downvotes You are right. The only thing that rangar can do is 1 shot every 150/70 sec and this was nerfed ( and was the right choice). Already he had 49% win rate when was 'broken', now that even who main him (like Dekar, Nb3, ChaosRain Akkadian) have left Rengar, maybe his win rate will be close to 47/45 % and MAybe We will have a Real Rework! Rengar pre nerf wasn't broken, but extremely Unhealthy, but now is totally useless when there are champs like Nocturne without stupid esclamation mark but with an Global ulty which negate visione and is a point and click ability. My advice is: leave Rengar for a bit hoping in a future rework.

Yeah I wouldn't even mind if rengar was more of a bruiser, I sometimes play him that way. However, the gutting to his E makes this less viable than ever. -_-

This would actually go along with his Predator theme. The problem is the Rengar fan base is filled with pre-teens who would have a sh*t fit if they couldn't insta-gib people. I've been playing Rengar for a couple years now and I have always hated his kit. I would rather him be a bruiser and be able to fight it out and go tanky.

MY favorite rework idea they had was where he had a secondary ult for stealth while the initial ult was an attack speed/movement speed buff. If shit hit the fan press R a second time to be stealthed.

Rengar is just not fun anymore and this E nerf is some seriously clunky.

They're fixing it on the PBE Rengar Bola Strike (E) [cast time in the air reduced to .125 from .25]*

But yeah, i have like 350k mastery points or so on rengar between my 2 accounts, i love the champ as an assassin, tank, bruiser w.e i love his kit.. Just gana wait for this E change to go through cuz rite now hes fucking stressful to play. Lol, i cant land a mid air E to save my life xD

Rengar need the nerf he has been a problem since he came out and still extremely overpowered. Rengar burst is still super strong and his passive is really good also the most important problem was getting ult by rengar without any warning. Also thunder lords is still stupid strong on him. Also in lcs immortals jg played him last week and got no deaths. Besides it was more a of a balance change. Also this change shouldn't hurt rengar mains or jg mains that play. But i say he is still going to need nerfs later down the line special his ult. Also i know he has a really low win rate but a lot of ppl play him really badly but play against a good player he can carry the game for his team.

Sy mate, but You are wrong. Immortals pick him as a second engage after Lissandra. he wasn't the palymaker, lissandra was and the only rule Rengar had in that game was to snare an already snared Corky. Nothing more the a support. in that game he also hade made the lowest damage. PLS, Do not think B is strong no matter what because once he has been taken in a pro game ...... so what we should say of Ahri, lux, Lee , Elise, Rek sai that are are perma picked and Have A REAL HIGH WIN RATE???

rengar will be missed they took tankgar away then they took Q on turrets away now you little one shotting power and longer warning for enemies. i will wait to pass my judgement though till i get a few more games on him this patch .

There's very few champions that have the ability to jump across screen, that's the playstyle I enjoy, now with Rengars ult nerf (the E doesn't faze me) but the fact they literally see you when you're in the river bothers me. It urks me that players in silver and below don't understand what a "pink ward" and "disengage" is so the rest of us have to suffer for their lack of knowledge
