Is Renekton any good in this meta? Because I feel like he struggles late game. And is he better tanky or dps? Overall is he any good?

Renekton has always been a decent pick. He is not the best but it's not like he is really bad either. He does struggle a bit in the late game but not as much as he used to. He is played the best as a bruiser (mixed tanky/DPS) in my opinion.

What are his counters? And what build would be a good general build? And can he go mid and jungle?

In lane Renekton generally excels against lots of different matchups as a lane bully but he can struggle against AP top laners for instance. I used to play him a lot in Season 4 but I don't really know any specifics concerning matchups anymore.

On Renekton you want to build defensive items such as Randuin's Omen, Thornmail or Sunfire Aegis against AD and Spirit Visage, Banshee's Veil or Maw of Malmortius against AP. Your best damage options are probably Black Cleaver and Ravenous Hydra. He functions as a bruiser like Joxuu mentioned before and when being ahead in lane you can rush damage items to abuse your early game strengths. With the course of the game he falls off a bit.
You can check out builds at www.probuilds.net if you're interested in items built by players from the competetive scene / high elo players.

I wouldn't recommend playing him in mid lane or in the jungle at all.
Thanks to Natuhlee for this sig!

Renekton is one of the worst toplaners right now. I always destroy him with Mordekaiser. He's just not macho enough and doesn't have a cool club like morde.

If you want you can check out my Mordekaiser Guide Once a month I update it daily.

I feel like Renekton is less prominent of a pick in ranked play (haven't seen him in a long while) but could probably still hold his own in the tank meta due to his armor shred and his bully level.
