What makes Rengar dangerous
Rengar builds Ferocity to empower his abilities, and his ultimate grants near-invisibility and a leap onto a target for a burst assassination. He hides in brush and leaps for bonus damage, deleting a lone carry before they can react. He's all about picking off isolated targets.
How to play against Rengar
- 1Ward brush and use a sweeper — he leaps from bushes for bonus damage. Deny the brush and his engage loses its punch.
- 2During his ult you get a warning and see his leap indicator — Control Wards reveal him. Stay grouped so he can't isolate you.
- 3He's squishy — hard CC or a Zhonya's shuts down his all-in the moment he lands on you.
- 4Don't walk alone in the mid-game. A Rengar who can't find an isolated pick has little impact.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Leaps from brush — deny bushes with vision.
- ✓Squishy; hard CC and Zhonya's punish his all-in.
- ✓Ult gives you a warning and indicator.
- ✓Weak into grouped, warded teams.

JagdfieberRengars Jagdinstinkte helfen ihm dabei, sich zu camouflieren, und enthüllen den nächsten gegnerischen Champion in einem weiten Radius um ihn herum. Während Jagdfieber aktiv ist, erhält Rengar erhöhtes Lauftempo und kann auf den verfolgten Gegner springen, selbst wenn er gerade nicht im hohen Gras ist, wodurch er die Rüstung des Gegners verringert.
Strong: near-invisibility and a leap for a burst assassination. Weak: it gives a warning and a leap indicator, and Control Wards reveal him — stay grouped.
Itemization
Rengar is a burst assassin (AD or on-hit). Vision (Control Wards, sweeper) denies his brush leaps, armor and Zhonya's survive his combo, and grouping stops his isolated picks.
