Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior poke with Q and burst trades with W-AA-Q combo, but Renekton becomes stronger post-6 due to his ultimate providing massive stats and sustain.
- His R gives him enough tankiness and healing to survive your burst and turn fights around with extended trades.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern is Q poke when he goes for CS, then all-in with W-AA-Q-E when he's low enough, using your E to block his W stun and Q damage.
- Always disengage immediately after your combo since you lose extended trades, especially when his fury is high.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain a slow push or freeze near your tower to deny him CS while staying safe from ganks, using Q to poke him down gradually.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall, as Renekton excels at setting up ganks with his W stun and dash mobility.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never trade when he has high fury (red bar) as his empowered abilities deal significantly more damage and his W becomes a longer stun.
- Don't waste your E defensively against his basic abilities - save it for blocking his empowered Q or when he commits fully with R activated.
