Yes i play agressive vs ranged enemies.And def when 2vs1 and they have offtank and ranged like Garen/miss forune ( silence, slow and -health regen)Then u must wait jungler gank. When lane phase is over, in teamfights u must target the ad carry with exhaust or the ap carry, when u go in teamfight pop up your ulti to dmg all enemies.
Thx for feedback.

I agree with Toshabi when it comes to the Wriggles... you almost don't even need life steal w hen it comes to Ren. As far as the skill order, If your confident in your farming level Slice and Dice more, if your more confident at getting kills, and you know you will be scoring some by all means go right for Pred, that's how I play him. I have great success with Renekton, he's a fantastic champion, and one that is often over looked. Solo top is a great place for him.

One other point I must add is this, different players have different levels of success with different ways of playing the same champion. So Toshabi prefers to build tanker, where I go more dps and get fed out my *** either way! It's all on what you like best and what works for you.

As a renekton player, I am very very disappointed with you for putting 6 points into ruthless predator and ignore slice and dice (IMO, one of his best bread and butter farming abilities when combined with cull of the meek) until level 14.

Second, I don't understand why anyone would want to pick up a wriggles lantern on Renekton as a core build item, there are way better items out there for Renekton, and honestly, he can really do without the proc from it for farmings sake. Even then if it's for the ward, with the amount of farm that /you should be getting/ with Renekton, ward money will almost never be a problem. If anything, I would've invested the madreds razor into a blood razor, seeing how that item synergizes well with his ruthless predator (which you push to level up rather early). If anything, that hurts your build to leave such a valuable Renekton item out. I also facepalmed hard when you chose to get a lantern built first over any CDR items. If anything, brutalitizer or your boots should be the first things you push on Renekton for that much needed CDR with the added bonus of armorpen/speed (depending on what you get first).

Third, Wit's end is very very situational. Even then, I usually take a FoN over it every time because it's just way more beneficial for Renekton (Speed, great health regen and a ****ton of MR).

Fourth, everyone is going openly mock you on this guide for even putting in the suggestion to get a trinity force with a frozen mallet for that 'extra slow'. I would add in an option to "either get tri or mallet" section in there, but in all honesty, 99.9% of the time, you're going to want to go with the triforce. It offers so much more then mallet does to Renekton. Even if it's not a "100% of the time slow", it offers great burst damage for Renekton with that +%150 damage proc when abilities are used. That proc also adds extra damage to ruthless predator (The first hit procs the triforce, the second hit from ruthless deals the double damage). Even then, when you think about it, with moves like ruthless predator and the fact that you're going to be wailing on them with auto attacks, the slow will always be up on them. It's just that "will my first hit proc the slow" factor will be the only thing on your mind, but even then, if you're THAT heavily reliant on a slow proc to get a kill, you're definitely not playing Renekton right. Also, red buff slow is a good quick fix if you /must/ have that 100% slow chance.

Fifth, your masteries are alright, though honestly, I would take those points out of utility and spec down to spell penetration in offense. Why you ask? Spell penetration works for both his ultimate and for Sunfire cape. It never ceases to amaze me just how many people overlook the damage on those items and how much that extra %15 spell pen helps to increase it. Also, the extra CDR and crit are so much better then 5% more xp and time spent dead. (If you're on a smart team and you yourself play smart, there really isn't a need to worry about dying) Also, I am very disappointed that you chose to waste points in ardor over Harden Skin.

Sixth, your runes are alright, though honestly, I'd rather have speed quints on renekton over more armor pen. Either path is alright, I just find that speed quints get you so much more kills as Renekton.


Overall, I cannot, in good conscious, upvote this guide. The items suggested in your main build are very lackluster when used in that combination. The only intimidation factor you have going on in this build is the fact that a big *** alligator Crocodile is running after you with a very sharp object. The only thing you have going on is the fact that you're guaranteed to slow enemies down for your carries to come in and pick up the kill, you yourself aren't really all too threatening/damage dealing for an enemy to even want to pay much attention to you, unless you're over-extended or are the last kill in a team fight. I'm just so put off on the fact that you have so much AS items in this build and yet make no effort to add in a madreds bloodrazor into your build. At least then, it would've made this guide semi-viable.


With that all being said, down-voted.

Overall your items look good, but the guide is a bit short. It would be nice if you could explain how to play Renekton in the solo top lane in more detail. He is of course a melee champion which makes it hard for him against ranged enemies, do you play very agressive against ranged champions or do you tend to let them push so your jungler can gank?
Also, you mention a few enemies you don't like to play against but you don't mention what champs Renekton is actually good against. Which champions does he counter?
Apart from that, you could explain a bit more about the difference of playing 1 v 1 and 1 v 2, obviously Renekton would be better suited for a 1 v 1 lane but he can still lane 1 v 2 if you play a bit more defensive. You also write about pushing, turret diving and harassing, but not about what to do in teamfights once the laning phase is over. What is his role and who does he target?

You have some work to do, the basics are there but it would be nice if you could add more information overall. Finally, you have only 4 points in Slice & Dice and 6 in Ruthless Predator, you might want to fix that ;)
