Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 as Renekton's Q sustain and E mobility allow him to trade favorably while you lack damage and mana sustain.
- At level 6, you still struggle since your R alone doesn't provide enough burst to match his all-in potential with R.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is Q poke when he goes for CS, then immediately back off to avoid his E-W-Q combo.
- Only extend trades when you have W active and he's low on fury, as your E attack speed slow can neutralize his damage output.
Wave Control
- Focus on freezing the wave near your tower early to force him to overextend for CS where you can Q poke safely.
- After first back with armor, you can start slow pushing to build up minion advantages for safer trades.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never try to match his early aggression or fight in extended trades without your W shield active.
- Avoid using Q on minions for waveclear as you'll run out of mana and lose your only trading tool against his sustain.
