I thought of a duo queue renekton build

I have personally always thought of Renekton as only a top laner, however i was playing him today and thought of a build. This build makes him effectively a mid laner, however (I believe) would be more suited to bot lane. It could also still be played top, providing you have an auto-attack based jungler - MasterYi for example. The Idea is that you and your duo queue buddy group, then Renekton uses his ultimate.

The build is this: item 3050 item 3135 item 3109 item 3068 item 3151 and item 3146

This build will make your ulti do a lot of AoE true + magic damage, and allow you to heal quite a lot as well. I've seen it do around 300 dps which, if you use it on a large group, is really quite good for healing, and can kill a Xayah in around 6 seconds. This is quite good, as your ultimate lasts 15 seconds and your E allows you to get to the back line, and can make you assassin - like.

Also, I have tested and this build can solo baron, presuming your ally is near enough to proc Zeke's when you begin. However this could be due to Renekton as a champ, not the build.

Its a strange build but I find it quite fun, as people are not expecting this much damage, and definitely not magic damage, which catches them by surprise, and will allow you to deal a lot of unexpected damage, as they will likely see renekton and go for armour.

I would run straight down mid if you built that in my game. A real assassin can kill xayah in about 1-2 seconds depending on if she is using ult fast enough to buy her time. Also, xayah or any other adc in mid-late game would kill a renekton with that build in less than 1 second lol.

3777 health. in less than a second? yet to see that. and you gain 77 health/second/enemy(including minions) so sustained damage is nullified. 280 armor on top of that? just no. a real assassin can kill one person, this build effects multiple people.

I personally love Lizard Wizard builds but it's probably best done in normals.

item 3050 is a good tank item but depending on the burst of the enemy team, item 3157 might be better.

Putting aside how you would ever manage to get that build (you won't), holy shit no.

Renekton's scaling is garbage, which is why he's an early game bully who MUST dominate his lane in order to be even remotely relevant. His AP scaling, however, is even worse.
