Playing as Rengar

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Fight near brush

    Fight near brush: from a brush, Unseen Predator (passive) makes your next auto leap onto the enemy.

  2. Roar after taking damage

    Cast Battle Roar (W) right after taking damage in a trade: it heals you for part of the damage taken in the last few seconds.

  3. Pick your empowered spell

    At max Ferocity, pick your empowered spell: Savagery (Q) for damage, Battle Roar (W) to break free of CC, Bola Strike (E) to root.

  4. Hunt down an isolated carry

    Cast Thrill of the Hunt (R) to find an isolated carry: it reveals the nearest enemy champion, then camouflages you and lets you leap without brush.

Playing against Kha'Zix

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay near an ally

    Stay near an ally: alone, Unseen Threat (passive) marks you as isolated, and Taste Their Fear (Q) hits you much harder.

  2. Fight back if his leap misses

    If he leaps in without a kill, fight back: Leap (E) has a 20 to 12 second cooldown, which a takedown only resets once the spell is evolved.

  3. Ward his paths

    Ward his paths: out of sight, Unseen Threat (passive) empowers his next auto against a champion, which damages and slows.
