What was actually wrong with Dyrus building full tank on Renekton? Like i read this complaining from 3 different places, and i just cant figure what was wrong with it. Even as full tank he has so much threat that people will have to run away from him, and being unkillable while doing so seems like a great idea...

Renekton can snowball lane more and hold lane difference much better with an early offensive item.

Yeah i can see that, but example Hydra is still 3300 worth of gold that is not invested in tank stats. He did his job just fine going full tank, i cant see what he would of done better with being down 1 tank item, but having more burst...

The way I see it, Dyrus has felt so pressured over S3/4 to be consistent and safe. Whenever people talk about Dyrus, that's what they think is his best aspect. In a way, I feel that he's taken that complement and let it stunt his play. When Regi couldn't keep up in competitive play and running the team, it put even more pressure on Dyrus. He started limiting himself on what he allowed himself to do.

In an interview recently, he said that he didn't like to be aggressive in lane. Anybody that has kept an eye on TSM since he joined knows that that isn't true. When it fit and he got Olaf, Vlad, or Jayce, he absolutely wrecked shit. Even when he was on Shen, he made a serious impact. Dyrus could put the team on his back and carried like a motherfucker. However, in effort to keep the team afloat during the twilight of Regi's career he has put limits on himself and painted himself into a corner with his play. The higher the stakes, the more pressure he puts on himself, the harsher he judges himself. Then this week, we hear him talking in an interview about how he spent all week on relearning Renekton. That he wanted to be more of an active influence on the team when Bjergsen comes back. I feel he is finally secure enough in the rest of his team to transition from the "pick mundo and just try passively get through lane" rut that he has put himself in.

If that means he's going to make solid, though less than optimal, item choices for a while so be it. If that means he has to spend a week learning a new champion at a competitive level so be it. What matters to me is that he, eventually, reverts to form where he does play at his peak again using all the talent that I know he has. Dyrus was what kept me interested in the professional scene after Epik split, stupid pillow and all. That's why he's my favorite player.

I don't know, when I started writing this wasn't my goal, but there it is. ^^'

Tiamat alone is enough to really fuck with people. Getting your lane pushed up and can't do anything about it? Have fun with it getting done even faster, letting Renekton free to fuck over the rest of the map too.

You don't need a super offensive item to wreck with Renekton. That is the beauty of top laners. Build tank. Still do damage.

I once built full tank renekton, I felt like I was much stronger lategame than with an offensive item, just because I can soak that much more damage, which is what you need to do with the croco, soak and peel.

Technically you can do the same with any champions with good base damage. See Annie (support I guess), Urgot, etc. or even Ahri rushing Abyssal and wrecking shit up 100-0ing people in a breeze.

Tiamat's 1900 gold, but the idea was that by building normally Dyrus wouldn't be able to snowball the lane as hard, and they feared that despite his huge lead Shyvana would still be able to retake the advantage once level 9-11. Didn't happen.

Yes, but you aren't unkillable as a Renekton or a Shyvana or a Mundo might be.

God top lane is dumb.

Smash Renekton's early power and a lot of top laners would come back to popularity, they're just shut down too hard by the goddamn croc and he doesn't fall off hard enough anymore, pretty much why only Shyvana is sent against him (and her late-game scaling is really huge).

I'd just be happy if top Vlad came back as a thing.

You can easily pick Jayce against Renekton and smash him.
I'm still waiting for good old Jayce/Kha'Zix with tears, especially after new patch or Jayce/Nidalee.
Won't be surprised though if CLG pull that trick from sleeve.

lol. Jayce can't beat Renekton.
And tear buff isn't significant in lowering full tear stacking timing significantly to warrant more Jayce+Kha'ziks.

Lol k.
Also Renekton doesn't have matchups where he loses, right?

You can hit manamune on Kha'Zix and Jayce at 8-9th minute, after it you get muramana at ~25. It was stable even before last tear patch.
Now you can do it even earlier, at ~22.
Slam'n'jam after it.

Please. Explain to me how 500 range form is suppose to beat renekton, muchless his hammer form when you have to invest 700 in laning phase for a non combat stat item.

You guys remember we saw Jayce/Kha yesterday right? No tears, but it was used to effectively beat Zion on Jax and Shiphtur on Kass. It's already coming back, even without tear stacking on both champs.

Go, try to fight Jayce who maxes W without ult on Renekton.
I will watch it.
And compare cooldowns after it.

Scarra got R-E-Q, not W-E-R evolutions.
Whole idea is about poke in midgame, lvl 16 is hitting later than 25th minute which i meant before.
So it's a bit different.

They ran Eve-Kha'Zix-Annie, it's a pick comp.
