Top vs Renekton?

[quote=tweeboy2]I do build armor -_- I get armor first to help me in lane. He still is able to get his pokes on me without me doing any damage to him, and then if I do poke him he just heals right back up. And for the person who suggested [[Yorick]], I guess I suck then because I'm 0-2 with [[Yorick]] vs [[Renekton]]. I went Tear>Chalice>Glacial, but he was still winning trades. I only stayed in the game both times because their jungles sucked and were easy kills. I haven't tried [[kennen]] yet so I'll give him an attempt. I don't own [[Riven]] and I can only play jungle [[lee sin]], not top :(. No clue why, I just suck with him top.[/quote]

[quote=Embracing]Armor? Flat armor yellows blues and even possibly reds and quints and starting with cloth 5? If you're losing the lane even like that then I think it's just personal reflex / positioning. Try not to stand in his double E range and last hit when he's used his abilities / you know he's going to take more damage from engagements.[/quote]

[quote=Jpikachu1999]Well, I just suggested [[Yorick]] cause then you can just mash your E and W buttons. Probably want to go Boots + 3x health pots, [[Tear of the goddess]], [[Chain Vest]], Tier 2 boots, then probably [[Giant's Belt]]. You'll build them into [[Manamune]], [[Atma's Impaler]], and [[Warmog's Armor]]. Late Game build would look like this: Tier 2 boots [[Manamune]] [[Warmog's Armor]] [[Atma's Impaler]] [[Force of Nature]] [[Trinity Force]] OR [[Frozen Mallet]] Situational Item If you really have that much trouble with [[Renekton]] in lane, get tier 2 boots and get 2 [[Chain Vest]]s, picking up [[Tear of the goddess]] along the way. If you play [[Yorick]] against [[Renekton]], try to wait until he's already used [[Cull the Meek]] (he spins around and heals), so that he doesn't AoE your ghouls. Trades should be pretty easy, just drop your [[Omen of Famine]] when he [[Slice and Dice]]s to you. You can either slow him when he comes in, or when he try to run away, so that you can get [[Omen of War]] off, and a couple of auto attacks as well. You might also want to check out the mentoring forums, if you keep having a bunch of trouble. I know there are tons of great people there that would be glad to help you learn how to play against him.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]Counterpick is Jarvan. Free armor from E and a %HP damage on his passive. Only thing is that Renek can just S+D out of your ult and he has more natural sustain than Jarvan. Wriggles to counter. If it's a good Renekton, they're going to be going balls out aggressive with either ignite/exhaust , ignite/heal or exhaust/heal. They're also going to be packing full armor pen runes and rushing brutalizer for maximum annoyances. Fight him right after he's used [[Cull the meek]] and only in short engagements. His skills have deceptively short cooldowns.[/quote]

[quote=Jpikachu1999]^ Why didn't I think of that? I would assume [[Malphite]] is also a good counter. Free shield from passive to help reduce burst, tons of damage (trademark Phreak :P) with [[Ground Slam]] and [[Seismic Shard]], and a free armor boost from [[Brutal Strikes]].[/quote]

[quote=Klausenheim]The snarky replies in this thread just made me cough/laugh/choke while at work. Now everyone thinks I'm dying over here. Thanks a lot guys.[/quote]

[quote=DuffTime]Also, Udyr terrorizes Renekton.[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Ya I've never yet lost to a Renekton on Udyr.[/quote]

I usually use flat armor yellows, start cloth 5 depending on champ, and build whatever item requires a chain vest first.

[/quote] I probably will check out the mentoring forums haha, he's the only champ that I have absolutely no idea how to beat. Is a chalice even worth getting on Yorick then? I would get it so I can spam my abilities without the worry of mana. But is more armor a priority, over being able to spam abilities?[/quote]
