Playing as Renekton
Tips to maximize your impact
- Ruthless Predator at 50 Fury
Save 50 Fury for Ruthless Predator (W): empowered, it strikes three times, destroys shields and stuns for 1.5 seconds instead of 0.75.
- In and out with Slice and Dice
Take your trades with Slice and Dice (E): one dash to go in, your combo, then the recast to get out, available if the first dash hit.
- Dominus at the start of your all-in
Cast Dominus (R) at the start of your all-in: you gain max health and Fury, and damage nearby enemies every second.
- Get ahead in lane
Play aggressively in lane and look for an early lead: Renekton is strongest before everyone has their items.
Playing against Urgot
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Don't circle around him
Don't move around him during a trade: Echoing Flames (passive) fires from the leg facing his target, and each leg has its own cooldown.
- Trade after his Disdain
Take a trade when Disdain (E) is on cooldown: it's his only dash, the one that stuns the first champion hit and throws them behind him.
- Stay above 25% health under his ult
If Fear Beyond Death (R) impales you, back off and stay above 25% of your max health until the effect ends: below that, he can drag you in and execute you.
- Back off during his Purge
Back off when he activates Purge (W): he deals and absorbs a lot with his chain gun, but moves slower during the effect.
