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 Talon

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge his blades on the return

    Get out of the path of Rake (W), especially on the return: the returning blades slow you, and each spell that hits brings you closer to Blade's End (passive).

  2. Push to keep him in lane

    Push your wave whenever you can: he then has to stay and farm instead of roaming by vaulting walls with Assassin's Path (E).

  3. Engage when his ult is on cooldown

    If you can engage, go for him while Shadow Assault (R) is on cooldown: it's his main way out of a fight, and it comes back in 100 to 60 seconds.

  4. Ping as soon as he disappears

    Ping your team as soon as he leaves your vision, and ward the paths behind walls: Assassin's Path (E) lets him vault walls to roam through the jungle.
