Quit in champ select. Honestly you might be able to kill him before he gets sheen / phage once or twice but afterwards he will just heal every bit of damage you deal to him and he will have more impact in teamfights than you do. Try to get picks with your team.
Introduction
I have to admit that my ranking isn't high but it's mostly because I only have limited time to play overall.
Anyways I'm watching many streams of
























Runes






If you are up against a mage I'm currently trying to run these runes as well. I'm up for feedback on these
Runes





If you're running low on Influence Points you can also run these basic runes. They don't scale as well as armor pen but you have better lane control with them (either CDR or AD quints)
Runes






As stated above, I generally like using the first page since it's adding up perfect for the 40% CDR cap:
Runes 10%,

I've tried going for






Just try it for yourself but I'm having more success not building it.








If you are low on health or the enemy is too tanky for you to kill you should go for

Sometimes the enemy will stack armor starting from level 1. If you see that the enemy has for example 50 armor level 1 but only like 25 magic resist, max out

A little tip for



Many current meta toplane champions can start with a camp level 1 and come to lane level 2 instantly. You don't have the option since you not go with

You can go to the blue buff and attack the little minion, don't jump from the brush because then you'll take 4 auto attacks from blue buff. If done correctly you take 3 hits which can be healed up from using 1



If your jungler insists on starting at blue buff, try to confince him to invade their red buff and snack up one little minion from there. But red buff generally hits you harder than blue buff. You will be lower on HP.
Same goes for the other side if you start at red side. Either take red little minion or invade for their blue.


Try to position like shown in the pictures above. You should be able to only get hit 3 times and come back healthy to lane. After the creeps hit you the first time use one


Early Game
With the start provided you'll need 4 lane minions to get to level 2. This surprises most enemies. Try to stack up your


After trading with the enemy, try to get back into the brush as soon as possible so that the minions lose focus on you and the enemy needs to chase you through the brush if he wants to trade back. If he does he is food for you.
Also think about sacrificing 1 last hit (the fourth minion) and stay in brush to surprise your enemy with the level 2 power spike.
You should thinking about warding the river at around 3 minutes into the game because that's the time when the enemy jungler will be done with both buffs and might think about ganking you while you cheese.
Mid Game
Your goal is to roam with

Late Game
You should now be at your 40% CDR cap which will put

Don't be scared to use your ult to scout out if the enemy is doing baron, zone the enemies from going to drake / baron and so on. But keep in mind that good enemies will have a pink ward in their pockets which can screw you up.
Generally you want to assassinate the enemy ADC (Marksman) before any teamfighting action. If you can't get to him, killing the squishy support or mid/jungler can also be worth. If they are squishy they provide something else for their team (healing / CC / ...). After killing them you can teamfight 4v5 or splitpush if you're convinced your team won't lose a 4v4. Keep in mind that you will get stacks on the bonetooth necklace anyways doesn't matter who you kill.



Generally always start with your bot lane since they'll give you a leash you need early on. Rengar as an extremely strong level 1 therefore you also can invade against weaker early game junglers.
