See this? See this right here? All you people who hate on vayne probably none of you even play renekton and you're gonna downvote and say its his fault lol.

Nah bro I feel you. Upvoted.

If ren is going to have a CRAP late game why give im such a poor early game?

THIS POST IS EXACTLY LIKE THE LUCIAN VS VAYNE

If the topic was Renekton VS Riven and how riven has such an insanely good late game and yet is still AMAZING early game then what? you're all just going to downvote and move on? Like this guy has a valid point but whatever if its not affecting a champ you play then just downvote to all hell

exactly... now either give renekton a good late game like any bruisers right now or buff his early game to have his old gameplay style

Better Question: Is there supposed to be a "King of Toplane"?

Because, if there is one champion for a position, who trumps all others, thats not a good thing...because all that results in is: Wither that champ is firstpicked or banned.

Renekton used to be called like that because he had no negative match up and could win 90% of the time top from lvl 1 to 7

Garen says otherwise

I know, I used to play him because of that.

ANd now tell me: Is that a good thing? No, it isn't. it makes for a boring lane, a boring pic&ban and a boring game.

i'm all along with you, but he is trash late game so there are 0 reasons to play him. want wreck someone? it's harder then before if you don't kill them or have 50 cs more than them (which is hard now) you lost all the purpose to play this champion.

i don't ask for him to be like before but give us a reason to play him

Ok,first of all everyone can survive renekton by just don't fighting him,which will deny you all gold and half of the exp. No,going all in trades;Garen will lose. Darius after rework TBA Irelia skill matchup. Zac yet to see someone play him top or anywhere except me. Riven typical riven main doesn't lose to any matchup.Chogath except this(see what I did there?) Trundle Ayy lmao the king of passive play style and when aggressive he always turns the fight into his favor

Renekton loses to Garen provided Garen has half a brain.

not really, in the early lane phase it's pretty even though slightly renekton favored

I'm not a fan of champions designed to auto win their lane as the goal in mind. I'd prefer if champs like renekton and pantheon had the tools to do well in lane without being quite so impossible to deal with when they are strong in the meta. Point and click stun, infinite harass, waveclear and sustain, etc. I'd rather they have less reliable early tools and have a stronger mid and lategame presence then to have all their power budget tied up in being super annoying in the first few levels.

forgive me if i meant to give him an auto win lane treatement, i wasn't and you're right but riot needs to give him tools to do it.

If you were good enough you'd still be able to play renekton.

And if every ADC main was good enough they wouldn't complain about Vayne. Problem solved right? No need for vayne nerfs we can all move on.

There is no need for vayne nerfs? Stop complaining about every champ.

I can definitely see your point, I had the same issue, I think Riot was hoping Juggernaut items would help him out, so I'd definitely try some of those items out. But I definitely think he could use some QOL buffs to fit into the new top and that got changed with all the Juggernaut stuff.
