Yasuo or Rengar for low elo?

I'm thinking of getting either Yasuo or Rengar. I've played both of them before and tbh they're both pretty easy to play (I can play both decently, so don't worry about the skillcap level. If I need to I'll just practice with them) and they both dominate low elo. I mean, I think Yasuo is better late game because he's better in teamfight situations, while Rengar kinda just instabursts and picks off people. I've also seen a lot of gameplay of them, and from what Imve seen Rengar top looks like absolute cheese.

I'd probably say Rengar, since people in lower elos tend to not know how to respond to cloaking. Nobody is ever going to buy a pink ward or a vision totem, let alone any kind of ward that costs money because it doesn't give damage.

Neither stay away child PLEASE STAY AWAY!!!!!!!! But in all honesty I like yasuo because who doesn't like a fucking samurai that chops your head off with savage tornados.

Edit: I'm a little biased here because I really like wind Janna Riven Yasuo

If you are planning on top lane Rengar is in a bad spot. Garen, Darius, Riven, Irelia and gangplank all counter him pretty well and those seem to be the most popular champions right now. If you do get out of laning ahead though you will be in a very good spot for mid game.

If that was a question between yasuo and zed or rengar and khazix, the answer would be much simpler. What i mean is that you are comparing a mid laner that can potentially play top, with a jingler who can potentially play top. They are different roles. So if you like mid lane, i say get yasuo, if you like jungle i say play rengar.

Now here is my final answer. I say rengar because he is less frequently banned and picked than yasuo is. Also mid lane is not easy to get as everyone wants to play mid. It's alot more likely to get jungle.

Last but not least i believe noone of the two is a good purchase. I mean your choice but i think they both have weaknesses. First of all they are all about dmg and dmg is expensive, so if you mess uo your farming or ganks you will be gold deprived and thus useless to your team. I like champions that can go either the dmg way or the tanky/bruisy way. Consider champs like vi, irrelia, elise, riven, wukong, vlad, xin-zhao, shyvana aaaaand JARVAN( i put that in caps cause jarvan is just fantastic, he has amazing dmg and good survivability) and more. Last thing, is that your timing is bad, yasuo is a nerf magnet, his mobility is too good so riot can't buff him without complaints so they prolly wont. Rengar ahd his trophy passive removed and his ult is too op for rengar to be getting any buffs.

Rengar can snowball infinitely harder than Yasuo can unless you are really good with Yasuo
