What is the counterplay to Rengar again?
Anyone? and people cried about Evelyn, and somehow this is ok?

Frist of all, you need to keep in mind how strong a champion is in pick/ban.
Rengar, you pretty much can only pick AFTER enemy jungle and support are ALREADY locked in. Because he is fucking hard countered by so much shit.
Then you have to remember rengar can't gank pre 6, so your jungler needs to bully lanes accordingly.
Then you are all ahead of the enemy because they played 4v5 in a meta where early jungle ganks are a MUST.
There are tons of ways to deal with rengar, in pick ban phase, early game and late game(GA stopwatch zhonyas DD PD etc) dude is just a 1 for 1 kind of champ. He has no way to go out and only 1 way to go in.

Evelynn is not even in the distant league. She's completely immobile, has a 2.5 sec ramp up debuff screaming "this champ is going to engage on you from this direction, just sit on top of him and bodyblock the hate spike to mitigate 1/3 of her damage", and virtually has to walk up to melee range of a target while being made of toilet paper to do any damage, often less burst than Kha'zix, Rengar, or Shaco.
Her stealth is a total gimmick, I'll take Shaco's Q any day over the garbage stealth with zero mobility Evelynn has.
Besides that, pray your laners are not morons and stay away from bushes so they don't feed Rengar early.
If Rengar does not get fed early, he's just a worse Kha'zix with far less mobility and flexibility in engage/disengage. The problem is dumbass laners letting him get big early, and then when he has ult up he's a nuclear warhead. But as far as it goes, just like Evelynn, Rengar is entirely ult dependent to function unlike Kha'zix or Xin Zhao or Lee Sin and especially Shaco (whose ult is on a ridiculous 24 sec cd by the end of the game).
His early clears are super unhealthy and slow as well, so he's easy to invade by stronger duelists.
well rengar jungle is weak early cant gank til 6 this can be taken advantage of.
in fights he is always going to look to pick some one off so grouping is a must.
The best way how to counter Rengar when its already in fight Is to have some kind of dash or knock. Before fight you need to know what He Is gonna do and surprise him out of bushes. Rengar can NOT engage if you arent already behind. When I get home, I will write more.
they should just make it so he doesnt get to use teamvisiion when he is ulting
his ult is meant to force him onto the closest champion and the counteprlay should be to hide behind your tank... meanwhile he can just place a ward or use his teams vision to completly sidestep that aspeccct of the ability... which completly removes counteprlay
probably vision armor not splitting, because he is a hunter
Ban him. I've been doing so for several seasons now.
There is no other counterplay. He 1-shots ADCs at level 6 with no items. A fed Rengar will even 1-shot full-armor tanks.
His ult and what he will do is predictable; have the support insta CC him with a displacement or hard shield the adc.
Please do not necro old threads as doing so violates the Board Universal Rules. I'm going to lock this thread down now.

Once he gets 
pretty much all you can do is buy defensive and hope it's enough. You can't really push out, you can't really ward, you just have to group as 5 for key objectives and waveclear until they spawn(assuming he's ahead, when he's behind he's a pushover).
If he's ahead, you pray. You cross your IE and RFC and pray to the god of squishies that he picks somebody else to 150-0, or that your team is smart enough to layer stuns as soon as they see his fuzzy behind.
