I always have trouble against riven as renek. Rene is one of hard counters to riven.You outtrade and outscale riven in even levels.Just dont get lvl 2 or lvl 6 cheesed.Only chance to stay even trades for riven is maxing her E. Every time she comes to stun you you can stun her first and Q her.You can also dodge her Q s with your E. | ||

I would like to be good at him because I think he's a solid Top laner, but there's just something about him I'm not wrapping my head around. I feel like I lose almost all trades even if I get a little bit ahead. I mean, you probably know this, but in case you don't... E in -> W stun -> Q -> E out should work in most matchups and win you trades without much/any return damage. | ||

A good trick with Renekton is to build your fury to 40~45, then do your combo. E->W->Q->E out. Using W gives you 10 fury if you're under 50 so make sure you account for that when trading. However, you don't always have to stun before using Q. After you get level 3 Q, as long as you're hitting the enemy laner with empowered Qs you should be able to win basically any trade. Also don't be afraid to auto them and trade that way, as well. The heal from Q more than makes up for whatever minion damage you'll take. As long as you're saving your second E activation to disengage you should never really lose any trades. Post-6 you stomp on almost every single other laner whenever your ult is up, especially if you take ignite. You can even 1v2 some situations with your ult. | ||

Also I suggest watching/reading Souza's guides, because you can get a really good idea of how to play Renekton in a variety of matchups. I already had a pretty good idea of how to play Croc, but his guides helped iron out a lot of the kinks in my play and start winning 60-70% of my games with him. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=409971 | ||

Generally speaking, you get the most damage levels 1~3 from empowered W and from levels 4+, you get the most damage from empowered Q. You should be maxing Q>E>W, although I think Darien has maxed E>Q>W before but that's a more teamfight oriented build. | ||

Both those matchups should be in your favor tho...Altho malph might be a bit harder. | ||

I have been rushing hydra but it makes me feel squishy so I think I may stop that. | ||

I have been rushing hydra but it makes me feel squishy so I think I may stop that. I just build hydra first and build no more damage items generally. Sometimes I just build tiamat and go straight into Sunfire. The tiamat improves renekton's combo a bunch with the W cancel I feel like its worth it. Im pretty bad though. | ||

I have been rushing hydra but it makes me feel squishy so I think I may stop that. If you rush hydra then at the point where teamfights break out you are generally way too squishy. Renekton is one of my most played champs and at this point the most I ever build is a brutalizer and that's only if something occurred to make me really fed early. Otherwise I just build sunfire or visage first depending on the lane matchup and the enemy team comp. You beat Irelia in early levels but if you don't punish her enough or you get cocky, it's very easy for Irelia to start being able to 1v1 you once she has enough armor. Especially if you rush hydra or something you won't have enough health to be able to beat through Irelia's lvl 4-5 hiten true damage. It's similar with malphite except if you just let the lane go too easy for him neither of you will be able to kill each other and it's really annoying to not be able to pressure a lane as Renekton. Renekton doesn't even really need offensive items to do a lot of damage in teamfights. Just with sunfire + ult you do quite a bit of aoe magic damage and I still end up with a lot of kills just going sunfire+visage as my first two items. Play Renekton like Darien. Forget tiamat and hydra. | ||
