Renekton owns levels 1-2: Reign of Anger builds Fury off his attacks and he wins any point-blank exchange before your Q pattern comes online. Don't contest last hits in his range — take safe CS and give ground when the Fury bar fills, because an empowered Ruthless Predator (W) stuns for 1.5s instead of 0.75s and leads into Slice and Dice (E) for half your bar. Hold E charges purely for disengage. Ward the river; a fed Renekton plus jungle pressure ends this lane.

Start Doran's Blade + Health Potion and back for Executioner's Calling (≈800g) — cuts his healing. Build Spear of Shojin (Profane Hydra if you want waveclear + burst) first, then Sundered Sky, with Plated Steelcaps.
