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 Lee Sin

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Step up when he misses Q

    Step up when Sonic Wave (Q) misses you: without it, he has no dash to reach you, and it has a 10 to 6 second cooldown.

  2. Spread out from your allies

    In teamfights, spread out from your allies when facing him: the champion he kicks with Dragon's Rage (R) damages every enemy they collide with and knocks them into the air.

  3. Watch your early jungle

    Ward your jungle entrance early on: Lee Sin often looks to invade early to get ahead.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Lee Sin is strongest early and loses impact once everyone has their items.
