Champion Overview:



Renekton is a tanky DPS champion who does very high damage in the early to mid game but will have a damage drop as it goes later in the game. Renekton wants the game to end as early as possible or get his team to an advantage point by the time the drop begins to happen. Renekton uses no mana and can sustain very well in lane making him a good top lane choice.

Skills Overview:


Passive: Reign of Anger- 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.
Gives Renekton a fury gauge as opposed to mana, this skill explains what that is, and gives you reason to auto as much as possible.

Q: Cull the Meek- Renekton swings his blade, dealing 60 / 90 / 120 / 150 / 180 (+80% Attack Damage) physical damage to nearby enemies and gains 5% of the damage dealt as Health, up to 50 / 75 / 100 / 125 / 150. Each hit grants 5 Fury, up to 25. Enemy champions grant 400% additional health recovery. 50 Fury Bonus: Dmage increased to 90 / 135 / 180 / 225 / 270 (+). Heal percent increased to 10%, up to 150 / 225 / 300 / 375 / 450. Cooldown 8 seconds. No Cost or 50 Fury. Range 340

Your sustain, and a decent source of Poke, Also does AoE damage. Try and hit as many targets as possible with this skill.

W: Ruthless Predator- Renekton's next attack strikes twice dealing physical damage 10 / 30 / 50 / 70 / 90 (+150% of his Attack Damage) and stuns for 0.75 seconds. Each hit applies on-hit effects. 50 Fury Bonus: Instead, Renekton attacks three times dealing physical damage 15 / 45 / 75 / 105 / 135 (+225% of his Attack Damage) and stuns his target for 1.5 seconds. Cooldown 13 / 12 / 11 / 10 / 9seconds. No Cost or 50 Fury. Range basic attack range.
A good sorce of burst damage when you have fury, and its a CC as well. This skill resets auto timer, with above 50 fury auto+W is MASSIVE burst.

E: Slice and Dice- Renekton Slice: Renekton dashes, dealing 45 / 75 / 105 / 135 / 165 (+) physical damage. Hitting an enemy grants the ability to use Dice for 4 seconds. Dice: Renekton dashes dealing 30/60/90/120/150 (+) physical damage. Dice - 50 Fury Bonus: Damage increased to 67.5 / 112.5 / 157.5 / 202.5 / 247.5 (+). Enemies hit have 15% / 17.5% / 20% / 22.5% / 25% reduced Armor for 4 seconds. Cooldown 18/17/16/15/14. No Cost or 50 Fury Range 250.
2 part skill you need to get the first dash to hit a target to get the second. Do not underestimate the distance you can gain with this skill 2x + flash.

R: Dominus-Renekton surrounds himself with dark energies for 15 seconds, gaining 300 / 450 / 600 Health. While active, he deals 40/70/100 (+10% Ability Power) magic damage to nearby enemies and gains 5 Fury per second.

Matchups:


Easy

Irelia (Damage and sustain to high), Rumble (Warning,warning, warning, hes dead), Kayle (Sustain hard, burst hard), Riven (You should win trades, zone and win lane.), Nidalee (Sustain when she does , never go out of mana.)
Hard

Udyr (He just ignores you with turtle and rapes you with tiger, What do?), Kennen (Pikachu beats Feraligater, its super effective!), Jax (Dodges your Stun, wins fight and scales harder), Malphite (Can't stop the rock).

Playing AS/VS:

As:
  • You can heal bait very well with your ultimate.
  • Know your damage early game and capitalize.
  • With Cull of the Meek in a team fight you can heal very well, so do not be afraid to initiate.

Big Item Choices::


The Brutalizer - AD armor pen and cooldown a good item to get if your ahead. I typically will sell this item later on in the game.

Youmuu's Ghostblade - (If I didn't sell bruta)attack speed crit ,dmg, and cdr. It also has an active that is the same as a master yi ult but without the immunity to slows.

Atma's Impaler - turns you high amount of hp into attack damage + gives u crit AND def. The base staple tanky dps item.

Warmog's Armor -Tanky item gives you HP if you have atmas will also give you a fair amount of AD, and gives you more hp regen.

Sunfire Aegis -Tanky item gives you health and defence, more damage from atmas, gives you a nice extra bit of damage in fights.

Bloodthirster - More damage, alot of lifesteal I tend to buy this if we have a tanky team and need more dps.

Infinity Edge -More damage, helps your crit rate, makes more crit dmg, pretty good item if you are going DPS.

Thornmail - good for fighting heavily dps warriors like trynda,xin,and GP returns 30% of their damage to them.

Banshee's Veil - good for M def more, more hp, more mana, more dmg off atmas, Gives u immunity to one hostile spell.

Force of Nature - good for magic defence more run spd and hp regen.

Hexdrinker -good for living through mages while adding more damage.

Locket of Iron Solari - Hp , team wide hp regen aura, and a team wide shield. A good item for you to buy to help your team win teamfights.

Frozen Mallet - AD HP and allows you to lock down targets with slow.

Aegis of the Legion - gives you team a nice boost while your around which you should be tanky enough to be.

Wriggle's Lantern - An ok item if you behind in lane against a physical attacker, do not buy if you are in the lead.

Frozen Heart- An almost MUST-BUY if you start to do badly. Allows you to stay tanky, and help your team.

Maw of Malmortius- A good item if you need damage and are fighting AP champs.

Gametypes:

SoloQ:
Where Renekton is stronger (IMO), He wins lane and will most likely make the enemies surrender at 20 if you do really well and go down and help your team at least once. He can be counter picked if you pick him early in remember that.
Ranked 5s:
Renekton can work in certain team compositions, if you know what you are doing. Renekton has the potential to destroy top lane and make fast work of the enemy team. However if you are unable to do this, come late game you will not be as effective as other champions.

Conclusion:


That is all for top facts on the interior crocodile alligator. I hope you enjoyed and that this helped you to learn a little bit more about this champion. As always summoners have a good day and good luck on the fields of justice.

SERIES UPDATE:
I plan on releasing these every day/other day until I get all of the top lane picks in the league ( about 50-60 of them) if there are any requests leave in the comments below and ill work on them. I want to make this series for others to better understand the champions of top lane. Once I am done (Or once I have a few top facts out) I will release some Facts about top lane mechanics, eventually I will probably put everything into one generic top lane guide, however until I do that I will continue to watch and update my blogs as needed. Tips and tricks I missed under my Top Facts would be helpful if you put anything I don't have in the comments I will be sure to add it. I will be forming a guide called The complete guide to Top lane or something in that nature. The intention of this series is not as a "Build guide" or a "play guide", these are more like facts you should know about the champion. These are to inspire people to think of new champion possibilities they might not have thought of or to help a new player with the champion. I do not list runes masteries or a set build ( I give a kind of recommended items) in here due to the fact I want people to think of that for themselves and try new things. This series is an attempt for the LOL community to try new things and have fun in a fun game. Thank you for reading and have a nice day:P
