Abilities & tips
Open an ability to read its effect and a practical use tip.
PUnseen Predator
While in Brush, Rengar leaps at his target with his basic attack. Rengar generates Ferocity whenever he casts an ability. At Max Ferocity, his next ability is empowered. Killing enemy champions awards trophies on Rengar's Bonetooth Necklace, granting bonus attack damage.
Practise the hit area and target conditions first. Do not spend the rest of your rotation automatically when the opening damage misses.
QSavagery
Rengar's next Attack brutally stabs his target for bonus damage. Ferocity effect: deals increased damage and grants Attack Speed.
Watch the activation condition and attack timing. Practise the empowered action separately so it is not lost during a rushed sequence.
WBattle Roar
Rengar lets out a battle roar, damaging enemies and healing for some of the recent damage he has taken. Ferocity effect: additionally breaks crowd control effects.
Practise the hit area and target conditions first. Do not spend the rest of your rotation automatically when the opening damage misses.
EBola Strike
Rengar throws a bola, slowing the first target hit for a short duration. Ferocity effect: roots the target.
Use this control to create a follow-up window. Check the target’s defensive spells and your teammates’ range before committing.
RThrill of the Hunt
Rengar's predatory instincts take over, Camouflaging him and revealing the nearest enemy champion in a large radius around him. During Thrill of the Hunt, Rengar gains Move Speed and he can leap to the tracked enemy without being in brush, reducing their armor.
Read the effect and its conditions, then practise it alone. Build your sequence around the effect you can reliably reproduce.

Game plan by role
Rengar · Jungle
Practise a repeatable clear before adding risky invades. Check nearby lane positions before entering the river or committing to a gank.
Prepare objectives by resetting, checking vision and moving with nearby allies. Avoid starting an objective solely because it has spawned.
Keep Smite and your escape plan in mind around contested objectives. Choose between engaging, covering a carry and keeping access to the objective.
Before your next fight, check: Savagery · Thrill of the Hunt · Combos
06
Matchup preparation
Compare opponents in the build for the role you are actually playing. Then check their key control, escape and defensive spells before choosing your trade.
07
Practice checklist
- Cast each ability alone and identify its range, target conditions and stopping point.
- Practise the first sequence slowly. Repeat it while moving, without skipping the conditions shown on its card.
- After each attempt, identify the spell you would still have available to defend or retreat.
