How to beat Renekton

Common role: Top

An early-game lane bully who stuns, heals, and snowballs before falling off.

What makes Renekton dangerous

Renekton builds Fury to empower his abilities — a healing slash (Q), a dash (E) he can use twice to engage and escape, and a stun (W). He's one of the strongest early laners, looking to snowball a lead through level 2-6 aggression. His weakness is that he fades hard in the late game.

How to play against Renekton

• 1Survive his early spikes and outscale him. Renekton is strongest levels 2-6 — play safe when he has Fury and punish when it's empty.
• 2Bait his empowered W stun before you commit. Without Fury his W doesn't stun — trade when his Fury bar is low.
• 3Respect his double E: he dashes in and can dash back out. Don't over-commit to a trade he can escape and re-engage from.
• 4In teamfights he's a short-range diver with no reliable CC beyond his stun. Kite him and focus your damage on his carries.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Falls off hard in the mid-to-late game.
• ✓Empowered abilities need Fury — punish an empty bar.
• ✓No ranged threat; kiteable in fights.
• ✓Grievous Wounds cuts his Q healing.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Renekton's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Domínio da Ira

  Os ataques de Renekton geram Fúria, que aumenta quando ele estiver com a Vida baixa. Essa Fúria pode fortalecer suas habilidades com efeitos adicionais.

  Strong: Fury empowers his abilities into big damage, heal and stun. Weak: with an empty Fury bar his power drops — trade when it's low.

• Q
  Abater os Indefesos

  Renekton brande sua lâmina, causando Dano Físico moderado em todos os alvos ao seu redor e curando-o em uma pequena quantia do dano causado. Caso tenha mais que 50 pontos de Fúria, seu dano e cura aumentam.

• W
  Predador Desumano

  Renekton corta seu alvo duas vezes, causado Dano Físico moderado e atordoamento por 0,75s. Se Renekton tiver mais de 50 de Fúria, ele corta o inimigo três vezes, destruindo escudos de dano no alvo, causando Dano Físico alto e atordoando por 1,5s.

  Strong: empowered W stuns and does heavy damage. Weak: without Fury it doesn't stun — bait it, then trade.

• E
  Fatiar e Picar

  Renekton avança, causando dano a unidades em seu caminho. Fortalecido, Renekton causa dano adicional e reduz a Armadura das unidades atingidas.

  Strong: two dashes to engage and escape. Weak: don't over-commit to a trade he can dash out of and re-engage.

• R
  Dominus

  Renekton transforma-se em sua forma Tirana, recebendo Vida adicional e causando dano a inimigos ao seu redor. Enquanto estiver nessa forma, ele recebe Fúria periodicamente.

Itemization

Renekton is AD with healing. Grievous Wounds and armor (Plated Steelcaps) blunt his early all-ins, and scaling into the late game beats him outright. Ranged tops can poke and deny his short-range aggression.
