This seems really weird to me. Both Diana and Rengar can one shot you by the time they reach lvl 6, the thing is, Diana has to land her Q and proc her passive in order to effectively one shot you. Whilst Rengar just needs to press R and Q and you're dead before you can even blink. (not exaggerating)
External link →Rengar is such terrible design lol. Champ has been a design problem since its release some years ago.
Hard disagree. Rengar is an awesome champ that a ton of players love. Also does an incredible job of delivering on the thematic of a stalking hunter. Reliable burst damage is an important part of league that keeps the triangle of burst vs. sustained vs. tank vs. burst in line, even if it's frustrating at times to get popped by a fed alpha-lion.
This is what Riot did with rengar:
- Nerf Rengar Q to skillshot because he kills you too fast
- Buff W because he needs to be 'tankier' because he blows you up slower
- Revert Q
- ???
You look at that and you really wonder if they actually think about what they are doing.
OFC we do! That's WHY we reverted Rengar, the champion was stronger, still frustrating, and yet was played less. Something was off. We'd be silly however to just mindlessly full revert without capturing the gains of a rework . Some things were good about his update (the W changes), some things were better from old Rengar (the Q), so we mixed and matched. It's almost like we thought about how we could get the best of both worlds.
