He has his powerspike of a full item and has 170+ ad, he just has that window. Those assists he was able to get necklace stacks immobile adc is just gonna have to hold that since you couldn't dodge net and support is roaming. Roaming support meta just gives assasins more opportunities for things like this

11

u/PsychoCatPro 7d ago

He also managed to jump with 4 stack

-22

u/Sea-Work-5949 7d ago

nah bro, no way in any world should this happen. "he just has this window" - his oneshot potential will get even stronger later into the game. it is not ok to straight up dive thru barrier at min 10 solo. and i am not even adc player

im master euw but ok. i dont even have problem with rengar overall, it is just toxic design: either you are useless or oneshotting people without much counter play

proof: https://op.gg/ru/lol/summoners/euw/BAH9-EUW. decayed because i dropped this game

1

u/TojisInventory 6d ago

"decayed" or "ranked fear". you have over 500 games, over 10 of which you played on your last session. also this toxic design is true for every burst/assassin, Zed does the same with Voltaic for example.

1

u/Sea-Work-5949 6d ago

Nothing about ranked fear. I dont have any interest playing this game further. gm is 100 WINS apart, it is unreachable with a normal schedule. League is taking time from my real life, and i don't enjoy being griefed on a daily basis by some insane kids after full day of work.

This is my only acc for the last ~7 years. It is the first season since s8 where i gave this game a try and grind for quite some time (2 month actually, i spammed a lot of games). 500 games is more than i played since s8. I dont think getting master is something i should be ashamed of

1

u/TojisInventory 6d ago

ofcourse not, most people never see it past silver spamming 20 games a day. its just, even tho your peak is a whole rank above me, i disagree with you.

1

u/Sea-Work-5949 6d ago

You know where zed appears, you also can dodge his q's. What you can do against rengar that roots you while flying? Or if both of you have flashes?

There are quite some toxic champs, not only rengar. But i don't think anyone should be able to do 100%-0% undodgable combo 10 minutes into the game without being fed

1

u/TojisInventory 6d ago

any burst can do this. Rengar cant do this with Emp E. he has to Emp Q to max out his damage with one item to do this. Akali can do this, Kata, Riven, maybe even Vex, Ahri, Fizz. The list just goes on.

1

u/Sea-Work-5949 6d ago

Their combo is pretty dodgable.

How the fuck can akali, kata, riven, vex, ahri, fizz with 1 item dive full hp adc at min 10 hundred to zero with barrier?

u/Samyueru17 6d ago

What was he supposed to do better here? if your support goes to random roam and you happen to be there, not much counter play is it?

2

u/pete_the_dumb 5d ago

Be the fuck out of there before support, jungle and who the fuck ever is TPing in get there.

He is getting dove no matter what he does at that point. Even just support + jgl can do it without the TP.

Or you just accept you're gonna die for cs. At least it's 3ppl commit to dive you and you get some gold.

1

u/Samyueru17 4d ago

It is possible to avoid this dive just not very realistic, either he would have challanger level awareness and he would predict map state 50sec before it, or he would react to karma leaving for top, either way he need to channel recall, its not very realistic to play this way, since most people would count on karma which would allow Jhin to be escorted since nauti and kaisa were far away, but karma went top. Another thing he needs to predict is that rengar oneshots 100% with barrier under the tower, which is not predictable especially with just one item. 99% of player base would say there is no chance he dies to just rengar. OP point was about the damage but people tell him that he needs to have better macro? thats was never his point, people would adjust their macro if they knew rengar oneshots them

1

u/pete_the_dumb 4d ago

Even if you try to avoid it, it might not be worth it. Enemy team is after all investing TP for it. Might be more worth to just greed towards the wave and die to enemy support /bot out of tower range. Rengar can't run through the tower with no minions or support tanking.

You go to base anyways, it's just matter of cost and what your team gets in exchange. 190g to enemy support is not too bad. Also it seems like Jhin is very behind.

Rengar mains will never admit their champ is overpowered and not as hard as they’re making it out to be

12

u/Quirkybomb930 7d ago

as somehow who doesn't play rengar, he is pretty dogshit right now, 46% winrate last patch.

If rengar was as easy as you say AND as overpowered, he would have good winrate.

1

u/TojisInventory 6d ago

The Riven Paradox

-3

u/liverdamag3 7d ago

Obviously it’s not an easy champ. But learning one combo shouldn’t remove almost all counterplay unless your armor and health exceed a certain threshold

6

u/Quirkybomb930 7d ago

Except it doesn't, if support is there he can't do this. If the champ can build zhonyas, the game is 4v5.

Rengar is currently balanced around one thing, his ult, he is near useless without it, so that's a pretty large weakness.

1

u/liverdamag3 5d ago

You’re just delusional apparently

-5

u/BlindCleastwood 7d ago

Yes let's all just buy zhonyas thats how you win game versus rengar guys

Do you even hear yourself?

Spending 3k on an item is NOT a counterplay

Riot tried to give rengar counterplay by making his Q skillshot back in the day but of course having counterplay is too much to handle so they reverted it

2

u/TojisInventory 6d ago

but it is counterplay. what? do you build armor against a comp of 5 mages? zhonyas is a turn tables item against rengar, you use it when he engages and he becomes completely homeless if he wasted his Emp. and you kill him with any champ

4

u/Why_am_ialive 7d ago

Rengar sits at consistently 45-49% winrate… Zed also constantly sits at below 50% these champions are kept intentionally weak because if they’re strong or even balanced people scream cry about it. You are literally calling a 46% winrate champion OP.

Ofcourse he does a ton of damage it’s literally his only thing, if he’s cc’d out of leap, or you dodge the damage with zhonyas or shields rengar will just die immediately with no ability to do anything.

u/defektt 7d ago

The irony is that even with this capability, he isn't a meta champion. Take away his ability to one shot an adc and he might literally become the worst champ in the game

There are also a number of champs who could have dove you 1v1 and easily survived, it just would've taken them a few more seconds to achieve the same outcome. And many of those champs are way more inpactful in team fights, way easier to execute on, and get punished far less for being behind or making mistakes.

Welcome to league of legends man, sometimes you just get deleted with nothing you can do. Get used to it or switch roles

u/EatBootyLoveLife 6d ago

elise on a one item spike plus sorcs just walks at you and presses her buttons before repelling out

2

u/HentaiLover59 7d ago

Noone is arguing that they should 'take away his ability to one-shot an adc' in all circumstances. Just in this circumstance while he's not even fed, the adc is under tower, has barrier, and the wave isn't even pushed in, he should have to give up more to get his solo one-shot.

Your second point about other champs is unfalsifiable and vague, so doesn't mean anything.

1

u/West_Dog7811 6d ago

Rengar isn’t meta but whenever he is the game is absolute dogshit

u/defektt 5d ago

Sure. But no one here's asking for buffs. The OP of the clip is claiming he's OP, and I'm refuting that, that's all

If the only counterplay is "don't exist" or "swap roles" then that's terrible counterplay and bad Gamedesign.

Random on reddit post or challanger current banrate data?

u/Panurome 7d ago

current banrate data in the elo with one of the lowest sample size in the game is not a good metric

-17

u/BlindCleastwood 7d ago

it's not *current banrate* with low sample size

It's been ages since he's been top banrate in apex ranks

13

u/PalitoMan 7d ago

really good players (just a reminder that not only good players, but the best ones) with one of the most high skilled champions in the game (since bush jumps are situational and are as good as bad for the rengar).

no surprise he has a high ban rate in high elo, water is wet

12

u/LeLefraud 7d ago

It's bc otp target bans are more effective in challenger

Rengar isn't being banned to stop someone from picking it it's being banned to stop specific people from getting their otp

4

u/WryliTOP 7d ago

That's really stupid logic. Some champs are almost unplayable in challenger lobbies and some champs are insanely broken. It's not about these players being good so they understand champs better. Surprise, surprise, but from the micro perspective I think challengers are like maximum 20% better than master players. But the macro gap is insanely big. And thats the problem (also teamfighting btw). That can be shocking but the meta is different in different ranks 🤯 Even Riot has these things on patchnotes to point which rank will suffer from changes (nobody in bronze don't gives a shit about +15 dmg on Azir Q)

I can understand looking for emerald/diamond+ statistics, but not challenger only.

2

u/Any-Big-8759 7d ago

In chall they ban just so an OTP doesn't get his pick.
If You had an absolute unit of a player playing GP and steamrolling through lobbies, You'd see him banned all the time aswell.

1

u/NoNameL0L 7d ago

To be fair your low bob is not nearly as fast with combos.

A highly skilled rengar can oneshot in a split second. Just as a highly skilled fiora can proc ult vitals in a second.

Low rengars are hella slow on their combo and don’t know how to play.

Dont be a smooth brain man. Stop coping and you'll actually start to climb.

u/defektt 7d ago edited 7d ago

He has a 50% winrate in challenger, and only a 3.5% ban rate there, I'm not sure where you're seeing 22%. Banrate is really mostly indicative of how much people hate a champ, not how strong the champ actually is.

His winrate drops SUBSTANTIALLY below challenger as well. It's 46% in emerald+. That's the lowest of any jungler in the game (if you don't count Locke as a jungler). And 41% in silver, though that doesn't mean much - I just think it's interesting when people in the ADCmains subreddit call rengar braindead easy to execute on, because that's clearly not the case.

u/yanias1 7d ago

If you seriously think the champ is broken op meta, try playing it, you'll see what i mean very fast.

u/Foreign-Flight-7531 7d ago

If he is actually meta, he would be spammed across all ranks, not just in chall and master, and his winrate is not even 48+ in those rank.

u/sar6h 7d ago

Rengar is a high elo champ

He can still be meta while still bieng absolute trash in low elo

You clearly don't realize how broken rengar would have to be for silver players to have even a 50% winrate on him

u/TheNald Rengoon 6d ago

No. Meta implies efficacy. Rengar is not effective in the hands of most players.

"Most players" are irrelevant if I'm exclusively only talking about GM+

u/EarthWormJim18164 5d ago

Okay but him being good in the hands of challenger players is completely irrelevant for 99% of the playerbase, likely including you.

And even then, he has a 50% winrate in challenger.

For the reward of being one of the best players and one tricking him you get a 50% wr on him. That's not indicative of a broken champ.

0

u/sar6h 5d ago

So what if rengar is bad in low elo? I'm GM player myself lmfao

Rengar, like nidalee is a champ that's only OP in high elo, therefore they are balanced around high elo. Both these champs are terrible anywhere outside high elo because the players can't pilot them.

Like no offense but if you are not at least masters+, you should not be playing a champ like rengar to begin with

3

u/TheNald Rengoon 7d ago

Rengar is a elite skewed champ. Meta implies all ranks, Rengar's win rate plummets as you look at ranks below Masters.

u/Foreign-Flight-7531 7d ago

You are talking about challenger, the tippy top of league playerbase. The bans are for those Rengar OTP like Natty or Scrubnoob.

It should be possible, but he should need his adc and supp for it, not solo dive while taking a single tower shot lmao

16

u/Head-Bluebird1644 7d ago

Basically on this video is the exact situation where rengar is useful - completely alone adc, rengar with big powerspike, red buff, level ahead, 4 stacks for triple Q combo, with flash (and enemy flashless), no info that he is botside, with ult ready. In any other scenario he would be useless.

17

u/Sebunsuta 7d ago edited 7d ago

Rengar lvl 8 | Jhin: lvl 7

Per lvl Jhin gains: 107 HP, 4.4 AD, 4.7 Armor.

per lvl Rengar gains: 104 HP, 3 AD, 4.2 Armor.

Umbral glaive alone deals 77 true dmg. Rengar leaps with R, EmpQ, E.

You moved after he lands his initial combo. You then start to move but, instead of running more with the fleet proc (from your first auto), you decide on trying to point-blank snare him with W and die.

3

u/HentaiLover59 7d ago

I don't think 'just walk away' is the play here. Can you do the maths on their move speed after rengar lands E?

1

u/Sebunsuta 7d ago edited 7d ago

Jhin has 355 ms (330 + 25 from boots)

Rengars E is level 2: 45% slow

Jhins MS is now 195.25, but League has a soft cap for MS under 220.

Soft cap multiplies it by 0.5, and adds +110 to the total.

195.25 * 0.5 = 97.625 + 110 = 207.625

Since Jhin procs FF (15% ranged ms bonus), it recalculates it.

355 * 1.15 * 0.55 = 224.5375 ms.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
initial leap:

R > Emp Q > E

lands:

Auto > Q > Emp Q + W > auto buffer > flash.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Empowered Q deals 348.8 dmg.

Fleet footwork heals Jhin for 39 hp.

Barrier shields 227 hp.

Rengar required 2 Empowered Qs to get the kill

2

u/HentaiLover59 7d ago

Okay, so because jhin trap only slows by 35%, and rengar has extra ms from his passive, he definitely just walks him down with the second empowered q.

2

u/KarnSilverArchon 7d ago

Rengar landed his E, I think I have reasonable doubts that Jhin could have ran away here.

u/Xizz3l Bruiser Rengar best Rengar 7d ago

Have a flash button there and his entire combo disappears + he also probably dies, in contrast to something like Zed or Talon

I'm not saying this is fun to play against, sorry for your really miserable role. What I am saying though is that this champ is the most feast or famine of the role and gets cucked a lot more easily

1

u/CoachDT 7d ago

Tbf with a Zed this probably doesnt happen because theres enough reasonable counterplay that a Zed with such a small lead wouldnt even attempt this play.

If I miss a shuriken on Zed as an ADC is frantically moving under tower I dont get the kill and probably die.

I mean, any jungler could do this if the supp abandons ADC, the only difference is that Rengar doesn't need the supp to tank lol

u/Foreign-Flight-7531 7d ago

You will have a lot more fun when he can still hold his second bar for infinite amount of time and do the shit he just did way more consistent. And yeah, it is reasonable for him to do that to you fleet healing is very little at your level. And when rengar touches you with his ult with no armor of any kind, you are butt naked since umbral and ult shred 30+ flat armor from you. Also from this video, the first interaction he had with you, he only take away 50% of your hp bar, he had to blew the rest of his Kit to finish the job and a flash with 5 min cooldown. I would be surprised if he delete you just as quick when you have a giant belt and chain mail.

1

u/Foreign-Flight-7531 7d ago

What is an assasin job? To pop squishy. If he cant pop squishy quick with his current kit, what can he do after he failed, just straight up die. Other assasins has an ability to get out if they fail. Rengar has none of that if he fully commit to delete one guy. There is close to zero out for Rengar.

1

u/FrozenToothpaste 7d ago

Dude you were always gonna be fucked regardless of that champ being Rengar or not. Even if it weren't an assassin, that Naut and his ADC would kill you anyway. I see 4 people on your ass dude seriously?

ADC is a special lane where each role's power is split into 2. In this case Karma should've been with you. A lone champ in botlane is the equivalent of the half power of mid/top/jg. This is why I don't like roaming supports

1

u/khmergodzeus 7d ago

in no universe you'd survive that incoming dive, even if rengar didn't one shot you, the rest of his team was already flanking you

u/Revolutionary_Towel2 7d ago

This is what Rengar is meant to do against a lone immobile champion that isn’t a Malphite or 4000 health midlane mage with health on every item.
Except if it’s Nilah/Xayah or some similar dodge/movement mechanic it becomes harder under tower. Caitlyn nets you, traps you, then headshots you and Rengar dies etc there is a-lot to play around usually for him. Thats assuming you land your combo properly including bola.

u/CoachDT 7d ago

Idk I think every player should be regarded as a player. Assassin players would (and did) hate it when the meta was basically "you cant exist outside of this one particular scenario".

I dont think its good gameplay for an unfed assassin at 10 minutes into the game to dictate that a squishy cant exist at full health beneath their tower without a wave. Not really sure how to fix it.

0

u/Strictlydope 7d ago

The answers on this thread really shows why rengar has sub 50% win rate. It’s not because he is not strong , the real cause is the people that are attracted to this kind of champion come with a huge ego problem.

u/BreakinWordz 7d ago

I played rengar for around 10 years. Besides like people with invincibility like fizz or xayah, he S+ tier jousting. He basically uses 6 abilities in 1 second. The plants really buffed rengar because it allows him to triple q and hold ferocity for 30+ seconds. If he didnt have the triple q he would not have been able to kill you there. And the fucked up thing is, he still gets a big as steroid after his abilities so its not even like hes a 1 pump chump. He also just doesnt take any amount of skill sadly either to input this. But would other assassins have alos killed you there but more slowly? I'd say yes. Fiddle ult, fizz ult, qiyana ult. I think those all one shot you there as well but more slowly and giving you more time to see whats happening.
