Read from Aurora's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Renekton.
This is Aurora's own plan; across 1,324 pooled games the lane is leaning Renekton.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Renekton | His fury-empowered Ruthless Predator is a 1.5s point-blank stun and Cull the Meek heals his trades — at level 1, with only one spell up, you lose any melee fight. |
| Level 2 | Aurora | Your Q out-and-recast plus E-hop poke chips faster than his fury combo, and Spirit Abjuration heals it back while he has no ranged answer — start the poke war here. |
| Level 3 | Aurora | His fury bar empties after one combo and he must walk back into Twofold Hex range to refill — punish the gaps with the recast and hop out. |
| Levels 4-5 | Aurora | Your Q cooldown, three-stack passive healing and W reset line up — bait his E dash, then out-trade his point-blank combo from range. |
| Level 6 | Aurora | Between Worlds slows his all-in while you cross the rift freely, so Slice and Dice has to start from outside it — you own this window. |
| First item | Even / skill | Luden's/Malignance sharpens your Q-recast burst right as his fury combo falls off and his base damage flatlines — force every all-in here. |
| Two+ items | Aurora | He has no late threat once his early kit stops one-shotting — your scaling burst out-damages him and your R/W mobility mean he can never catch you committed; just close it out. |
Level 1 belongs to him: a fury-empowered Ruthless Predator is a 1.5s point-blank stun and Cull the Meek (7s) heals him through your chip, so do not walk into melee to throw a Q he can stun you out of. Last-hit at max Q range, keep Across the Veil up for Slice and Dice, and concede a little CS rather than eat the stun. From level 2 it flips — Twofold Hex out-and-recast plus The Weirding's hop chips faster than his fury combo can answer, and Spirit Abjuration heals the trade back.
