Playing as Renekton

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Get ahead in lane

    Play aggressively in lane and look for an early lead: Renekton is strongest before everyone has their items.

Playing against Zaahen

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Get out of his stab's line

    Get out of the line of Dreaded Return (W): the stab damages you, then pulls you toward him for a second hit.

  2. Back off after his first Glaive

    Back off once he has cast The Darkin Glaive (Q): if he recasts the spell, his next auto knocks you into the air.

  3. Avoid the edge of his slice

    Avoid the edge of the Aureate Rush (E) slice: at the tip, you take bonus damage based on your max health.

  4. Plan to kill him twice

    Save spells to finish him a second time: at max Determination stacks, Cultivation of War (passive) can bring him back to life.
