This is really pissing me off.
Rengar needs to be fixed so that he can jungle without a leash and you see fit to NERF him AGAIN?
He's been hit with something like eight nerfs to his original kit now.
The game shifted away from his abilities in Season 3 when they made the big jungle creeps twice as tough and do 20-40% more damage. Rengar's burst and sustain, which is non existent in the jungle, can't get him to survive. Rengar needs at least level 3 or 4 to get either his burst or sustain.
There HAS to be some EARLY REINFORCEMENT so that Rengar jungle the way that he was designed!!
Please increase his buff durations by 2 seconds! Increase his base health per second back to what it was! Give back the 7 second stealth if you see fit to make a long delay for it to activate!
Edit: added my thoughts below from page 4
After all is said and done, they wanted to design Rengar to be a tanky jungle master with a great gap closer/initiate and super chasing skills.
They accidentally made a super sustain lane bully that has a fantastic escape for an ultimate.
I still think that to fix him:
1) Extend the Q and W stat buffs to 5 seconds.
2) Remove his Q's ability to hit structures.
3) Lower his W heal to 5%+(2%AP)
4) Increase his W's resistances by 5
5) Restore his health regen (base and per level) back to his original stat
6) Remove the delay on his R
7) Remove his R's stealth when he is in combat (2 second rule)
8) Extend his R's buff to 7 seconds.
The next thing you know, he's no longer an OP lane bully, can't use his R to escape very well. Has to set up his stealth for initiation almost exclusively, controls the jungle creep a lot better and doesn't push down towers like mad (hunter's don't hunt buildings.....)

And i bet i forgot a cooldown nerf on W or E... This is getting ridiculous, before he survived the nerfs but was very hard on him, now you are overdoing it. Is it like old Eve and Twitch rework, you guys thend to valorize stealth so much you think its fair to nerf characters to the point of useless, they arent allowed to be good if they can surprise attack ya? Is that because of the oracles nerf? Try to make stealth champs "more balanced" as the enemy tank wont keep the oracles forever? Rengar has a bad winrate, in competitive play he rocks, but he has a bad winrate, meaning he isnt easy to play as only pros bring him deadly potential... So if you are balancing arround that, its unfair, a champ should be allowed to be good if he is hard to play, its the trade off you get from learning. Anyway, back to the jungle, before the stupid nerfs, his sustain would only get not suicidal after Lv4, and you would be forced to use W for heal instead of Q for clear speed, the nerfs will make the tradeoff go stupidly bad, as the W got less damage, you wont clear as fast, and you got less heal. Makes ZERO sense to me that you want him to jungle (starting item machete), but then nerf him like that, he wont be a good jungler, he wont be a good top, he is screwed, and the nerfs arent needed. Please explain why the nerfs with the most indepth you can give. |

A skill that requires you to not be hit in order to go into stealth with any sort of expediency. Shaco immediately stealths and flashes at the same time and deals an auto minicrit on the next attack. Twitch has the same movement stealth mechanic now, but also gains a movement speed, longer stealth and an attack speed bonus. Eve is always stealth until combat.
So what exactly makes Rengars ult an ult? It may give ferocity, but if you blow your long CD for the ult, you are now having to wait 3.75 seconds to gain your bar back, only a 10% extra movement speed than twitch at level 3 and one jump while stealthed. There is no real strength to his ult anymore. So what is the justification for making this "ultimate" skill of his worse than Shaco's and Twitch's normal abilities? Twitches lasts for 8 seconds, longer than the poor pride stalkers. Shaco can use his ability as a gap closer and escape as well, except his can go over walls and immediately grants a boon where as Rengar has to wait. Would love to hear a red's opinion on the rational for these changes, because at the moment I feel as if this is a knee jerk reaction to one tournament and the complaints of people who do not wish to adapt to different champions (not pro's mind you but some of the more boisterous people on the forums). |

Can you now give us something to compensate for the next batch of nerfs? Like perhaps giving back the 7 second ultimate? Or buffing his Bonetooth Necklace back into viability? Or giving us some more health regen since you are neutering his W? I kinda feel like every time players find a way to play around nerfs you nerf that method as well. |

I really hate to say it Riot, but you murdered my favorite champion. I tried to give the nerfed Rengar a chance, played him multiple times, lost every lane ( given i can play Rengar considerably well ). I just really hate to say it, but RIP Rengar, you will rot in the usless champion bin. what's your opinion on this subject Riot and the community do you think he will still have a place in league? Also why all the nerfs Riot, I'd like to hear your opinions on this. |

But he lacks that certain dash.
Emasculation does that to a guy. At this point you've probably decided that I'm complaining about the nerfs. The many, many nerfs. But that's not the case. Aside from the 20% nerf to Bonetooth Necklace's damage component, I think they made sense; that 250% ratio on Savagery scaled way too well into the late game. Now, however, the things that made Jungle Rengar powerful feel much-reduced. In essence, it's not Rengar which has changed, but that he simply doesn't interact well with the new jungle, new items, and new masteries. I don't feel that Rengar is able to do his job well enough in the jungle any longer to really be a good champion. Sure, I can pressure the lanes and get kills; I can finish off enemy players if I position well, but I'm not able to really jump in and burst people any more unless I want to die horribly and fast. That Alpha Predator feel that attracted me to Rengar in the first place is gone. First: Ganking damage has been reduced. To eliminate the jungler's ability to camp lanes while still clearing his camps, the difficulty of jungle creeps has been increased, and the Hunter's Machete feels mandatory - but it does no damage to players. Madred's razors, the next item up, STILL deals no damage to players. You don't get any player damage at all till you buy the Vampiric Scepter component for Wriggle's Lantern. This leaves you far behind on damage when you start to gank, because the enemy lane champions probably aren't buying dedicated jungle items. So assuming they're not using the excellent warding options now available, and you catch them overextended, you still have a much harder time achieving the kill. The difference is minor, but it's noticeable, and affects you for the entire game, especially since... Second, it's freaking hard, in general, to catch people these days. Between the movement speed buff to everyone, the 7.5%-15% snare reduction Mastery (depending on points used,) the new options on boots, movement speed Masteries, the reduction of snare items' effectiveness, and the nerf to (especially early) ganking damage, it's quite simply very hard to catch people and kill them before they reach their tower, even with snare items like Phage and Frozen Mallet. Now, it's not that I can't ever catch people, and certainly it shouldn't be impossible to get away from someone just because they bought Frozen Mallet and your Flash is down, but it's still a noticeable increase in survivability against ganks. And of course... Finally, jungling is much more dangerous now. The increased difficulty and reward scaling causes junglers to be at less than full health a lot more of the time, and for longer in the game. This is, of course, intended, and I think it's a good idea. But for a champion who has no true escapes once his ultimate is down (and really wants to use the ult to kill things anyway) this is a huge increase to the risk of ganking - and the reward for that level of risk doesn't feel like it's there. So to summarize; I like the new jungle, I like the new items, and I like the new Masteries. But I don't think Jungle Rengar has weathered the changes very well. The reduced effectiveness of his Bola Strike, a substantial reduction in damage during much of his laning phase, and substantially increased risk (due to chronically low hp and lack of escapes) of committing to a gank are significantly reducing his effectiveness in the Jungling role -where he used to be considered the strongest. |

I already tried to jungle with him on the pbe and its just ridiculous how much hp u loose. I dont know what makes u guys at riot still think hes op cause he is only strong in top lane and only if u know how to play him cause common top lane champions dont give him a nice tine its actually hard to beat them since now rengar has less health regen than an adc... What i want is for rengar to stay the same or get buffed cause if hes stays the same he will be a strong/viable option in the top lane and if he gets buffed he will be able to jungle again. But reducing the damage on his roar and also reducing the % of healing it has is just dumb cause most of the time u use that skill to stay alive or hp even with ur matchup not to bully him rengar is a balanced solo top champion right now and should only get changed if its going to make him viable in the jungle again also making his ult take so long to stealth is pointless cause lets take the example of twitch making his stealth take time is a good way to control him not escaping from everything cause that is his q ability... But in rengar is his freaking ultimate he should be able to escape any situation instantly cause we are not talking about a 10 cd ability we are talking about his ultimate and ultimates should be strong, powerfull and unique abilities. So please riot dont nerf him again. Hes not able to jungle anymore dont take his laning potential too just because the noobs complain about him. please riot trust me if u nerf him again noobs will still complain and they wont be satisfied until he ends up completely useless. Please DONT NERF HIM AGAIN. |

It is the case with Rengar's sustain. His Base Hp/5 was nerfed (~ halved) a few patches ago to compensate the fact that W was too great of a sustain inlane. His Hp/5 sustain was aggressively nerfed because W needed a nerf. But now, by lowering W's healing by 1/3, his sustain went down by alot since Rengars won't use Emporerd W as often and when they do it won't heal as much. Since his sustain took a huge hit, it would be a good timing to put his Hp/5 on a more reasonable number. Right now it's the lowest of the game at any level, and by alot. I've always felt like if you have to nerf base stats SO MUCH because of the champion's kit, then do not look elsewhere: the kit itself is broken. Fix it. Don't kill a champion's base stats because of it. A little statistic: Rengar's HP/5 at lvl 18 : 11.2 Riven's hp/5 at lvl ONE: 11.3 |

Now you can't play him really top. As far as the jungle i'm not sure because i'm not the best jungler but when I did jungle i was outleveled. So this last nerf was it really needed? His win rate was 50% isn't that what you wanted riot a 50% chance of winning because if you played against other skilled players that the matchmaking is supposed to put you against you would win 50/50? What can rengar do now? Oh and now his win rate is about 35-45% People that complained saying he was op just got outplayed. I had a Olaf say i was op.... OLAF really op? because olaf isn't op at all right..... olaf beats rengar but if rengar can juke him around then rengar wins now rengar can't even do that. Lets look at op champs Leblanc is a huge nuke, Darius the king of op, diana could beat him not sure now since they were both nerfed, Eve is another HUGE nuke, Kat is a pretty strong nuke, Olaf is a tanky god that does dmg with building hp because of his E, Malph the god of op build armor then gg, Rek cc stun then ult and dead ya he wins, rumble a god top farmer (which you nerfed and reverted that because he was useless. oh look rengar is useless). My point is he wasn't op. people just didn't know how to play against him and still don't it seems like. In his spotlight his job was to start a teamfight then ult and take out the high prioty targets well he can't do that now can he since it will be 3 seconds before he is stealthed, oh wait he is dead in 3 seconds since his heal is nerfed. He wasn't broken before and you continue to beat on him. He was hard to play against yes but every team that bought oracles stopped him in his tracks with that. What can you do on him now riot. Now i'm prepared for the bunch of kids to comment and say "oh qq my favorite champ isn't op anymore so he is broken qq". I will not respond to you because there are people that will read this and agree that he is now broken and wasn't op before. Please riot give rengar some love because no one will play him now since he is useless.

" "You dare enter my jungle?!" * squirt squirt* "UGGGH NOOOOO!" " please give rengar a buff, he has one of the lowest health regain in the game, clocking in at 0.88 health regain at level 1. This giving him no sustain in the jungle, his battle roar with 5 stacks gives a decent amount but now you nerfed that too! his ult cant be used as a escape as much anymore due to the delay of him going invisible. |
