Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 heavily due to Renekton's superior stats, gap closing, and sustain advantage that your Q poke cannot match.
- Post-6 you gain some safety with R mobility but still lose extended trades until you have multiple items and levels.
How to Trade
- Your best trading is Q poke when he goes for CS, then immediately back away to avoid his E-W combo retaliation.
- Only take short trades with Q-W-E when his abilities are on cooldown, never commit to extended fights.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely under tower and giving up CS when necessary to avoid his all-in potential.
- Let him push into you naturally, as contesting the wave early will result in heavy damage trades you cannot sustain.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match his early aggression or fight for CS when he has fury stacked, as his empowered combo will chunk you severely.
- Avoid face-checking bushes or overextending without vision, as his gap-closing makes ganks extremely deadly for you.
