RIOT finally gave us something interesting http://www.leagueoflegends.com/news/new-champion-approaches-renekton-butcher-sands

I like Renekton very much, this is not going to be another fancy, new, forgotten champ, he has lot of potential, he's something like trynda/nasus.
I better start sparing IP :D

He seems like a great tanky DPS character. The ultimate is extremely similar to that of Nasus, but different enough in the Fury generation. I like the system - it promotes incredibly aggressive play with Renekton. Slice and Dice is fantastic for Fury charging and chasing, as is the stun from Ruthless Predator.

Tentative item build (based strongly off of DavidSS's Nasus Tank build) -

Cloth Armor+ Health Potion+ Sight Ward OR Doran's Shield OR Ruby Crystal
Heart of Gold+ Boots
Mercury's Treads
Sheen
Aegis of the Legion
Randuin's Omen
Banshee's Veil

Hexdrinker? Force of Nature? Infinity Edge?

Discuss.

Lol, RIOT did few mistakes in that preview, on US forum there are pictures of Renekton and his skils and on EU forum there's his passive.

Reign of Anger (Passive): Renekton gains 5 Fury per autoattack. Having sufficient fury empowers Renekton’s abilities with bonus effects, but this drains Fury. Out of combat, Renekton loses 5 Fury per second.

When Renekton is below 40% life, he gains bonus armor and magic resistance.

Abilities:

Renekton uses a new resource system called Fury. Renekton gains Fury by attacking or dealing damage with spells. When he has gathered enough Fury, the resource will be expended to empower his skills with bonus effects.

Tyrant’s Reach: Renekton cleaves, dealing damage to nearby enemies and healing for 20% of the damage dealt. Each target hit grants 5 fury, up to 25. Deals double damage to champions.

When Renekton is has more than 50 Fury he heals for 60% of damage dealt. Consumes 50 Fury.

Ruthless Predator: Renekton’s next attack will swing twice dealing a percentage of his Attack Damage as physical damage and stunning his target for 0.75 seconds. Applies on-hit effects.

When Renekton has more than 50 Fury, his next attack will swing three times dealing a percentage of his Attack Damage and stunning his target for 1.5 seconds. Consumes 50 Fury.

Slice and Dice: Renekton dashes forward, dealing physical damage to targets along the way. If he hits a target, he gains 5/7.5/10/12.5/15 Fury and the cooldown is refreshed. This refresh cannot happen more than once every few seconds.

Dominus (Ultimate): Renekton empowers himself with dark energies, gaining increased size and health for 15 seconds. While empowered, he deals additional magic damage and generates 5 Fury per second.

Reign of Anger (Passive): Renekton gains 5 Fury per autoattack. Having sufficient fury empowers Renekton’s abilities with bonus effects, but this drains Fury. Out of combat, Renekton loses 5 Fury per second.

When Renekton is below 40% life, he gains bonus armor and magic resistance.

GOSH! He has everything I like a champion to have. He is melee, meant to be aggressive played plus He has stun + dash and can jungle. Very similar moves to Irelia with the dash but a far better stun. I'm getting him and making a guide as soon as I feel confident in my build order on him. Must buy......

Going to try Youmuu's Ghostblade on him, seems like he would make him beast at chasing.

I don't see what your sheen builds into, though I'm guessing Trinity Force? Force of Nature might be preferable over Banshee's Veil for the nifty move speed that'd be helpful with a tanky DPS. Frozen Mallet in there, maybe? Wherever you can cram it in would be best (unless you're grabbing the trin force). If he can dish out a lot of damage without items, I'd say FM>TF for the added bulk. This is obviously all speculation, we'll have to try it out in game.
