New rengar is a problem

Jefftiffy·Feb 4, 2017·6 votes·766 views

Its not just his late game. Its his all game.

Literally a lvl 4 rengar just did 700 damage with just his Q and empowered Q and 1 kill to a level 3. The fuck were u thinking Riot. He didn't even have amazing CS either. Literally just 1 kill and below average CS.

I now see why he is banned almost every game.

Looks at wiki to see how. At level 4 he had a base damage of 168 on his empowered Q with 240% bonus AD scaling. WTF IS THAT SCALING HE ALREADY HAS A BONUS AD PASSIVE. 200% would be a lot 240% is fucking insane. So in total is Q did about 100 + 300 + thunderlords + AA. how is that balanced at all?

Yea, he is OP as fuck. But, they shouldve nerfed his damage stats instead of untility stats. Make him scale better when he builds AD. Same thing they did to Ekko. And about ult, at least they shouldve increased his movement speed by 2 or maybe 3 times because now this numbers (10/15/20) are gonna be very low.

And yea, Kirito, i am 500k Rengar main. And this guy is right. His damage will be useless when he cant be in TF long enough to do somwthing without empowered Q or his ult wont last long enough to catch running carry. Especially when you ult from mid/mid river to side lane.

The sad thing is feel like the rest of his kit is actually pretty okay (ult duration seems a little long). I just feel like there's so much damage loaded into the Q which only delays his burst by like an extra .1-.25s.

Well it's because now that his q is a "skillshot" it can so totally have like tons of extra damage loaded on to it...

It's not. That's why he's getting some nerfs next patch. Sadly not to his damage, but to other parts of his kit. His ult doesn't let you just stroll from top to bot with it. He can remove CC but isn't immune. That sort of thing.

I really think the 240% ratio needs to be looked at before utility. The damage creep is insane in his current kit. The fact that 2 kills can essentially let him erase anyone he pleases is kind of a poor choice from a balance perspective.

Rengar has all that, yet a shaco buff is too much to ask for... :(

The rengar fans are gonna defend this without a doubt. Me well im not interested its just another champ that you just have to cope with, us deciding things isnt what changes anything, riots statistics decide the outcome and not its community, which in any case looks at it and says its being abused.

Assassins for the most part do maybe 500 damage with full rotation and 1-2 AA's at 4 little more if they have ignite.

You had to have been caught in Rengar's element. The only way he could get you with Q and Empowered Q is if you strayed near an unwarded bush he was lurking in.

That's Rengar's strength. He's unstoppable in the jungle and when stalking in brushes. For that, he gives up the mobility that other Assassins have. Rengar cannot leave a fight once he's started it without help or CC. Ward around. Even during your first jungle clear, ask your top laner to ward red for you so Rengar can't ambush you. If Rengar does show up, ping for help before engaging.

He's no worse than any other Assassin, people just don't understand how to play against him properly.

Last I checked each lane has at least 4 bushes except mid which has tons of bushes for him to ambush as you leave. Rengar's element should not be bushes. I understand getting a slight power boost, but from meow to ripping your face off is way too big a swing especially when his power is his spike at 6 and passive.
