I am incredibly excited for the old Rengar Q to come back and hopefully change him back to an assassin instead of a bruiser. I'm also interested in seeing the new changes (if there are any other changes) that will come. Some possible changes that could come could be to his W and R but most likely not his E. His ult will probably lose its initial guaranteed crit. The reason for this is because in the current state of Rengar, if he gets fed enough it is actually possible to ult and just jump on someone once and with it the adc will die without any abilities. Granted this will still be possible but currently you have to have a Duskblade IE and Dark Harvest for this to happen. If they change the guarantee crit there is only a 20% chance that when you jump on the ADC when being that fed that he will instantly die theoretically. They probably wont bring back the true sight of multiple people because of how much that is to add into an ability that with the right runes is on a 30 second cool down late game gives movement speed and makes him camouflaged. The idea of his ult making him invisible is completely absurd and most likely wont come back because of how strong it would be. His W I think is just fine and doesn't need to be reverted only thing that needs to be changed about it in my opinion is the damage it does seeing how current AP Rengar doesn't work and his jungle clear would be just terrible without Tiamat. Some possible solutions to the jungle clear would be give his W percentage damage increase versus JG monsters or just making it do more damage so that he doesn't lose all his hp to chickens and krugs. I have heard people say ferocity should be reverted but personally I feel that would make him to strong. If he keeps his ferocity while clearing JG invading him is significantly more dangerous especially how the clip showed that Rengar would have 4 stack max and not the old 5. This would make it so that if you invade him he can almost get a guaranteed empowered ability on you and would probably win. If they did bring back keeping ferocity out of combat then raising the cap to 5 or more should probably come with. I would take everything I wrote about in this post with huge amounts of criticism. I am a Silver 5 JG main who has 142k points on Rengar and joined in season 7 so never got to play with old Rengar. I am excited for the upcoming revert and will watch skeptically with everyone else.

Hope he doesn't become old rengar too much, it was not fun seeing "!" over your head and then dying instantly.

Hope they overhaul his ulti and find a more reasonable way for him to function as an assassin.

Ok so I started in season 5 and have about 400k into rengar, I one tricked him in season 6 and had a 75 percent win rate. I miss it dearly. I will miss having vision of everyone because there has been many times where I have unintentionally jumped in on like 4 people when I meant to jump on the Adc. But I will be so happy when he returns as my love for the champion will also return, thanks riot

Back in season three rengar was a hell of alot of fun. They have since completely trashed the champ and need to revert changes, hes honestly completely unplayable. Its also not just him alot of the game is worse then it once was imo...

I agree with everything you said, except it would be nice if they would reduce the cd of rengar q early because clearing without tiamat and high cd q will be a pain

To be honest, i'am not that excited for this. I'am posting my video that i made (excuse the edits it my first vid) of game play of how i play him as hardstuck D5 loser, i think he will be less of an assassin then what he is now, you can do alot of AOE damage with current q. And i have been playing this champ for 3 seasons, so i know that this might not affect him positively.

Wow how low skill can you get to want old reng q back? Seriously old rengar HAS NO COUNTEPLAY when ahead such a boring ass concept to empower an aa attack as an ability. You just don’t know how to play him well there are plenty of high Elo rengar players he’ll even faker had success on him

Well aparently Riot says fuck that we prank'd u bois, here you go have new rengar back again. Literally wondering why did they even try to revert it but they still brought it back to new rengar? Like the fuck?

I mean I don't like the way the reverted q feels,the old one,S3 VFX and SFX of Rengar's q was a lot more smoother and felt like a real assassin ,this new one is like a kitty that's trying to kill a bug.Idk..

please Riot give Rengar the new Q or nerf the old one, this isnt even fair to play against*[sg-shisa]*

in foresight after posting this I only have 1 change that needs to be made I think and that is that they should revert ferocity for new Q because after looking through some more guides and other forms of information I have realized how hard it would be to one shot someone without 5 ferocity stacks and how you wouldn't be able to get off an empowered ability most likely

please do not remove the critical strike from his Q and and let him be able to carry 5 stacks again out of combat please!! :)

ADC Genocide1/12/2018, 11:57:54 PM1 votes

This one is a lot to ask for but if they nerf rengars numbers then please remove the cast time on e, it makes casting it while jumping feel awkward i understand why they have it there to try to make it harder to one shot but it can feel very clunky.
