Heavy poke, Blind screws ur W. Do short trades with e and q and when u reach lvl 3 all in with ignite and dont use ur w immediately, wait for his blind to wore off. Take Oracle Lens to spot his mushrooms.
Gangplank
In low elo this matchup isnt that hard, just be cautious of his q cause it hurts at lvl 1. When u face a good GP he can put barrels under him whenever u engage, slow you and punish you. He can heal ur w and get out of the stun too. U have better ult than his. Check in mini map if he uses it elsewhere on the map. Do small trades bait his w(22 sec cooldown at lvl 1) and all in him preferably at lvl 6.
Quinn
Good luck.
(if you know that shes going to dash into you have furied w ready and u stun her)
Jayce
Start e and do small trades with e and w, watch whenever he swicthes forms as it has 6 sec cooldown. in melee form hes e can counter ur e so try to dash behind him so he doesnt push you back in the minion wave and e back at him.
Olaf
Pretty dificult lane for those who dont know the match up. He will try to cheese u lvl 1 as his q is way stronger than urs. Try to do small trades when he goes for his axe after lvl 2 and all in him with ignite and empowered w.
Poppy
Dont dash into her w as it will stop u and she will win the trade. dont stay near walls with low hp and step on the cicrcle that pops to reject her from getting a shield.
Pantheon
Chill lane, he wins 1-5, farm and from 6 and after u beat him every time. Be cautious not to w into his shield
Urgot
Dont get hit by his e lvl 1, do some short trades with e q and from 3 and after bait out his shield and e q w aa e back, one way to bait his e it to walk straight into him and side step his e.
Rumble
After the w shield break mechanic u beat him starting from lvl 3, he has pretty strong and annoying lvl 1 and 2, and can safe farm with his e.
Garen
insanely annoying lvl 1, stay back and wait for lvl 2, when he q you before lvl 3, auto q to even the trade. When he goes for trade at lvl 3 and after just w him, ur stun has the same duration as his silence. Dont combo him while he uses his w and stay out of his e as it hurts. poke him frequently to prevent him from healing from his passive. His r animation is faster than urs so when low hp pop ur ult before he kills you.
Fiora
Hard snowball champion, if u w her while she w u gonna lose the trade and probably die. The matchup revolves around her w, so do mind games and bait it out. if shes ahead u will always die to her. Rush executioners, note that she hard outsales you and she can 1v1 you later in the game even with 1 whole item advantage.
Darius
The most BALLSY match up, the one that gets the first kill usually wins the lane. Stay back and wait for ur lvl 3, do QUICK trades and dont get caught by his e while u used yours or else u gonna die or have to use flash. When he q, use your e inside the circle so he wont stack and you will prevent him from healing, the combo is e q w e back and wait for cooldowns before u go near him again.
Irelia
Whenever she goes for q, auto q her. at 5 stacks she can all in u even at level 1, and at level 2 if she gets her stun. Do small trades at level 3 and avoid using ur w at her w as it negates almost all of its damage.
Cho'Gath
His silence is really annoying as u cant use in the meantime any abilities and combo u off. Be cautious at lvl 6 as he can kill u if u have 40% hp and below with a good combo. Try to go for an early kill and have a free lane until he gets 2-3 items.
Vladimir
Avoid getting hit by his empowered q and bait out his w with e in, probably gonna pop it off and then e again and emp w and then q, his w cooldown is longer than ur e cooldown at rank 1 so u will have a small window of time to do a full combo trade until he gets it again. He also scales hard so be cautious.
Shen
Avoid getting into him in tower range because he can taunt you and get turret aggro. dont waste ur w when he uses his w and try to bait it out, he gonna roam a lot with his r and be unkillable after a certian point cause he is going tank.
Kled
Whenever his w is up he gonna use it automatically, either on u or on minions, he will try to trade at this moment so when u see he uses fast auto attacks on minions or into you look in for a trade. when he is about to dismount dont waste all of ur combo and be cautious for when is about to mount again. he gets 20 points for an auto attack.
Yorick
Whenever he qs a minion look in for a trade. dodge hes e (u can either use or e to escape or to aa it 2 times) try to kill his maiden cause if he hits u when shes up she gonna drain ur hp. He scales into a pretty good splitpusher so pay attention on the map.
Trundle
Dont trade him level 1, if u are an experienced renekton player auto q him whenever he bites you. that way u both will go to 40% with frequent trades and look for an all in at level 3. always bring ignite in this match up. he has good movement speed and when ur abilities are on cd dont go near minions as he combo and chunk you down.
Aatrox
really strong lvl 1, avoid trading him when he starts hiting with his q dont get caught into his w and u are safe. His lvl 6 is pretty annoying. Manage ur fury wisely, his qs can cancel ur e if they hit you.
Camille
She has pretty strong lvl 2, dont burn ur abilities on her passive shield( she procs it when she hits you) she has good small burst combos. bait out her e and all in her at lvl 6, u beat her hard
Sion
Pretty annoying matchup, after 1 item u cant really kill him, he can use his r to come in the lane instanly, or use it defensively to leave whenever he is getting ganked or low hp, or offensively when u are low up and can get a combo on you. the longer he travles with his ult the longer u gonna get stunned by it. Avoid his e and u win every trade.
Gnar
Avoid his q, and try to make him not to catch it in the way back, while he is in mega gnar he will try to fight you. At 6 u beat him every time, look for an early kill and shove waves after he builds full tank and look to roam.
Illaoi
dodge, but if you dont want to dodge do anything you can not to get into her e, take ignite pta and get first blood first back, after that you have some chances to beat this lane, but even if you go 5-0 she still can kill you.
Dr. Mundo
Try to stand in front of the minion he is going to last hit with his cleaver for a while and look for small bursty trades, after a while his cleavers hurt because they do % damage. when he pops his ult u can burst him down with ur fury and ignite.
Malphite
He doesnt really have any kill pressure against you, if he goes arcane comet watch out for his q poke and be careful for a sudden lvl 6 all in with his ult. push the first waves because he cant farm under turret and he is also extremely mana hungry early on. freeze and punish him whenever he goes for a minion. The thing is he can use his ult for an escape.
Tryndamere
Go for as many early kills as possble. when he arrives in lane he will auto a lot the minions to build his fury, aa him whenever he goes for a hit and trade him whenever he wastes his e, at lvl 6 drop him an ignite when his ult ends and he gonna die, be careful when he e into u, aa q aa w aa and e off. He has good sustain from his q which heals depending from his fury.
Yasuo
he has kill pressure at lvl 1 and 2. At level 3 u can all in him, auto him to get his passive shield off and poke him at lvl 2 with e and q. At level 3 if he has 50% hp or less, auto him to wore off his passive and with empowered w kill him doing a full trade plus ignite, After the first kill the lane is free.
Maokai
He has good sustain and survivability, he cant kill u but after a point u can kill him, shove lanes as he cant farm under turret and roam/steal enemy junglers camps.
Akali
She has annoying lvl 1 but after that u dominate the lane, whenever she comes do a full combo and at level 6 u kill her every time.
Riven
start w build fury and emp w her at level, when she goes for minions auto her, bring ignite and kill her at lvl 1. After the lane is free.If shes a good riven or she plays passive freeze the lane and punish her whenever she goes for cs.
Nasus
Start with w and auto w him whenever he goes for stacks. its free poke whenever he uses his q. u kill him until mid game.In late game where he has a lot of stacks and being a full tank he can 1v1 you. Dont push the wave under his turret as he can stack for free make u losing ur advantage.
Nautilus
He cant really 1v1 you but after a few items he is really annoying to fight, he shields like hell and builds full tank.
Leona
All of her kit synergizes perfectly with you. In general who ever has hard cc Synergizes perfectly with renekton

Hello Guys, my name is Dom1nus and i am a Renekton One Trick Pony. Peak Rank 3 Renekton and micro wise i have perfected this champion, hope this guide helps.
If yoy would like cheap personal coaching sessions vod reviews and in depth renekton guide about not only Renekton, but for a wide variety of top laners, feel free to dm me !
Why Renekton?
Renekton is a fun Lane Bully, he has hard snowball abilities and he is easy to learn while maintaining a high skill ceiling. He has mobility, single un-avoideable stun nuke, good sustain while providing Aoe damage. Unlike most of the champions renekton doesnt have mana, he has fury and prorer management of fury divides bad, good and God Renekton players.

Combos
Level 1: Auto > Q
Level 2: E > Auto > Q > E
Level 3: E > Auto > W > Q > Auto > E
Wave Clear: Tiamat > Q
Kill the adc: Flash > R > W >Tiamat > Auto > Q > Auto > E
Instant catch the target with minions: E > E > Flash W
Instant catch the target without minions: E > Flash Or Flash > E depends on the situation
Early Game
Renekton has a weak Lvl 1 and Lvl 2, what i like is having lane priority so i want my jungler to start bot side, i push the first wave in trade with the opponent auto q so he can poked down and push the minions. At level 2 where u unlock e u can: e q auto e thats called the panther combo. After u see that the opponent has 50% hp or less get ur fury to 50% and e > Auto > W > Auto again as when u emp w he gets stunned for 1.5 secs and u get stunned for 0.75, so u have a small window for another auto, then finish with q and e to him again if needed. i like to take ignite so i can win my lane,and later win the game.
Mid game
Renekton shines in Mid Game, if u have ur core items look for drake plays, catch targets that are alone and force 5v4s. Push towers get a gold advantage so u can end the game as early as possible. If u have a tank or someone with a hook/stun that can engage let him do the first move and after him u should engage and prioritize the most fed squishy target. either it is their mid, their adc or their SQUISHY jungler ( for the love of god dont focus the full tank WarWick). U will never have a problem facing a fed top laner as u have dominated the lane and he still tries to finish up his first item.IF u lost lane hard, and u are quite behind dont look to go in unless u can pick off targets with low hp, Instead stay next to ur adc or mid lane carry and peel for them(protect them from dying).
Late Game
If the game goes this late, that means ur team is trash and the game is over anyways. Nah, just be careful and ward a LOT, they will try to play around baron when he is up and look for the bushes in case they try to trap(buy the blue ward so u can ward safely) dont be greedy and go for their squishy carry, do 5v5 fights or try to catch someone off and force 5v4 team fight or get baron. If u have a crazy fed adc and because rene falls of late game, it would be better to peel her and let her win you the game. If the opponent team have a soraka lulu or janna, go for them instead as they can cause a lot of trouble.
