Rengar

Extreme

personally i find rengar to be a massive pain in the early and mid game due to my agressive nature and karthus's low mobility rengar can pretty easily counter gank you and force a reaction.

Renekton

Ideal

Very easy to setup kills for as once he's closed the distance with your W or exhaust (Maybe even both ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°))
He's already won the fight as renektons dueling skills are difficult to match at early levels and the pressure he exudes is stressful to say the least.
