I can't believe riot is actually doing this with his current state

I guess a 70% ban rate isn't enough to tell them how overtuned he is

Unless he literally gets a level 1 pentakill, it's pretty much a straight nerf. The tiny base value increase doesn't come close to comparing with the bonus ad reduction. At even 1 ad item, he's worse off.

It doesnt matter because its a very very slight nerf, whats broken about him is the ult free crit auto and his whole W spell, and thats not being fixed.

It is a nerf, potentially a significant one given how much of an AD reduction there is, and most importantly, there are no compensation buffs.

You want me to agree that Rengar needs nerfs? Done. You want me to agree that OP's title wasn't just plain silly? Hell no.

No. 5 bonus damage is pretty much always less than 10% AD. It's strictly weaker at 1-2 trophies, then continues to be weaker until you have 20 - 50 bonus AD. The kills necessary to get to 3-5 trophies will virtually always give you enough gold to put yourself above the AD threshold, unless you managed to kill all 5 of them before you got any farm whatsoever.

So, no, in no real game situations outside of a level 1 pentakill is this a compensation buff. It makes Rengar strictly worse. Compensation buffs have the potential to increase a champion's power. This doesn't in any real game. It's a nerf, through and through.
