I'm confused about Rengar

RamboDash15·11/12/2016, 4:32:39 PM·1 votes·527 views

Ever since the rework I've seen posts saying that he feels weaker along with posts claiming that he is the most over-powered assassin (outside of Vayne ) I have also seen several different types of rengar players recently, ranging from the ones that cause me to keep a spare set of pants on standby for when they ult to the lethality of a new-born kitten. Can anyone give me a definitive answer on whether or not the new rengar is overly strong, average, or weaker than before?

or is it too hard for the boards to agree on something?

Now Rengar is stronger when used by his experienced players. So that's why some people think he is strong and some people thinks he is weak.

It seems like he's weaker for those attached to always using empowered Q, and a lot stronger for those who adapt to the new kit. I think he just has a higher mastery curve.

The way I see it, rengar no longer can single handedly assassinate without being very fed. Now, he needs his team's cooperation in order to effectively gank and kill a target.

So in that sense, yeah, he feels weaker, but if he gets rolling, he becomes extremely powerful due to bonetooth passive

The whole rework purpose was to balance Rengar in a way that transformed him from being an unfun character for everyone else in the game to being a fun experience for all.

Bump this thread if you think Rengar is still an UNFUN chamapion to play AGAINST. Because for us, Rengar mains, he is less fun that he used to be. Force RIOT to actually come with a rework that honor both the actual Rengar players and his opponents.

Coming from a used-to-be rengar main. His entire kit is dodge-able now. Even if he manages to land an empowerd Q, it does less damage than his old tripleQ, simply because it doesnt give him bonus attack speed anymore. His W would be a direct improvment if it's cooldown weren't such a cockblock, and if the damage negated was high enough to ever matter. E is basically the same. His new passive makes it where, if you actually farm kills, you'll get bonus damage, which is less useful than old bonetooth necklace perks, but oh well. His new ult, while the duration is nice, doesn't make up for the face that camouflage is completely useless if you're fighting competent players. The range in which you get his ult warning above your head, and the range you can actually see him while he's ulted, the only way his ult would of of any use is if he were fighting players with who have bad eyesight, are new to the game, or are just overall not very good. That being said... I am far from good at league, and I have yet to receive one death from the new rengar in the 20+ games I have fought against one. Kinda bummed they fucked my main, but oh well, a single players opinion doesn't matter to any game dev.
