- Shen
- Teemo
- Tahm Kench
- Poppy
- Sion
Mobility is definitely not one of Renekton’s strengths. While his E ability allows him to dash forward by a certain amount, there will be many times when it’s not enough. That’s why he may have trouble with the range. In addition, if he can’t gain his superiority in the early stage, he can experience a faster decline from the middle stage. That’s why tank characters can be a problem.
All of Renekton’s abilities, whose attacks cause rage:
- Passive / Reign of Fury: Renekton’s attacks generate rage. The anger he produces while low on health increases. This rage can empower his abilities with bonus effects
- Q / Loser Killer: Renekton swings his blade, dealing average damage to all surrounding units and healing for a small amount of damage dealt. If Rage is greater than 50, the amount it gives and heals is increased.
- W / Ruthless Predator: Renekton slashes his target twice, dealing average physical damage and stunning them for 0.75 seconds. If Renekton’s rage is above 50, the champion slashes his target three times, destroying shields on the target, dealing physical damage to him, and stunning him for 1.5 seconds.
- E / Cut & Cut: Renekton leaps up, dealing damage to units in his path. As Renekton grows stronger, he deals additional damage and reduces the armor of units hit.
- R / Owner: Renekton transforms into Zorba, gaining bonus health and dealing damage to surrounding enemies. While in this form, Renekton periodically gains rage
The Butcher of the Sands Renekton’s strengths and weaknesses:
Renekton’s strengths:
- To be very strong in the early stage
- No mana issues and can outrun trades with the opponent by gaining health
- The ability to push top lane very quickly
Renekton is a really strong character in the early stages as we mentioned. So much so that it can punish your little carelessness very quickly and kill you in an instant. In addition, his abilities are very suitable for pushing minions in the lane and he has no mana problems, making the character even stronger in the early phase.
Renekton’s weak features:
- The game gradually loses its power as it progresses
- Failed to establish early-stage pressure against tank characters
- Poor mobility
With Renekton, you have a high chance of dominating the game at an early stage, but the longer the game lasts, the more it will be to your detriment. If you are playing against a character who is a tank in the top lane, there may be a situation where you cannot establish your pressure in the early stage. In addition, the trouble with mobility makes it difficult to catch characters who can maintain their range.
How to play Renekton in LoL?
- Renekton needs all of his abilities to destroy his opponent. That’s why he has a huge burst of power from level 3
- Make sure your rage bar is full before you go into battle with your opponent
- Since you have a chance to use E ability twice when you hit an enemy unit, you can use one of them aggressively and after you make your combo, you can use the 2nd one to retreat back to a safe area.
Renekton is a character that needs to be played aggressively in the early stages. From level 3 onwards, when his main abilities are unlocked, he becomes quite powerful. The most important point to consider is that your anger bar is full and what abilities you will spend your anger bar on. If you are low on health, you can draw an amount of health that will turn the fight with Q ability, or you can stun your opponent for 1.5 seconds with W ability.
How to play against Renekton, how to beat Renekton?
- When playing against Renekton, you need to watch out for the anger bar, this may indicate that he will attack
- Dropping items that will reduce healing effects will be effective against Renekton
- Although he is strong in the early stage, he is not very successful in mobility, so he cannot show his full strength against characters who can play while maintaining their range.
Renekton is very strong in the early phase, especially from the 3rd level, it is useful to pay attention to the anger bar of the opponent. If the rage bar is full, he will usually seek clearance to attack. While Renekton has no mana, his Q ability grants a significant amount of health regen while his rage bar is full. An item that reduces the healing effect at an early stage can prevent this. Another thing Renekton hasn’t been able to show his real strength on is range. Characters that can keep their range can demonstrate the potential to challenge Renekton.
