I question Rengar's last nerfs.

Riot even said in the patch notes that it was a change targeted towards pro play. They double-tapped him. They hit his Base AND Scaling damage on his Q. That logic was that it would "draw out his clears a bit". Well then, something's gotta give. You nerfed his sustain 2 patches earlier so if you then also draw out the clear he just gets shat on. I actually need to Lane him now because he can barely clear and is way too vulnerable for an early game jungler. It's fucking woeful.

Since when was Rengar an early game jungler though. All those bonus AD ratios point to mid-late game.

Just because his early game has been godly in previous patches before nerfs doesn't make him an early game jungler.

He's meant to be able to provide similar early pressure to the likes of Vi and Lee and then somewhat scale into late.

I hope they gut him more. They should remove his Q entirely and make it a 10 ms buff

I 100% agree with you. I never really liked the new rengar but i tolerated him. but with the nerf down he's recieved he feels pointless to pick unless if you know you're team is gonna get you to mid game (why he's still a meta pick). but in soloqueue, unless if you do optimal clears, you can barely be healthy enough to gank after 3 camps (most junglers dont need to use both potions and he does. also im refering specifically to buff wolves / gromp then buff). you can get easily invaded wheras most other junglers can at least be healthier when invaded ( except like.. wukong maybe?) I used to enjoy invading with him and now i have to play safe. instead of being the assassain im the one being hunted (and by me i mean other Rengars when i face them i fk them up 90% of the time). like... ughwgboegbogbwoegbugbu Rito please. So yeah, I feel really bad for Rengar mains lol.
