The "!" above your head means Rengar is invisible and nearby — group up immediately.
Control wards and Sweeper reveal him in R — place them in teamfights to protect the carry.
Don't position near bushes in lane: he leaps for free from bushes.
Zhonya's or Guardian Angel are essential for carries — they survive the initial burst.
