StageFavouredWhy
Level 1RenektonRenekton's point-click W stun cancels your W shots and re-E before they connect — you have no spammable answer at level 1.
Level 2RenektonHis fury-empowered Q+W combo wins the level-2 all-in outright while your W (Violent Tendencies) is still ramping.
Level 3Even / skillAt 3 your E-W-E plus percent-HP Q and Skaarl's free health bar finally match him — even, but only if his fury bar is empty.
Levels 4-5RenektonA fury-stacked Renekton W-stuns and heals through your trades, reclaiming levels 4-5 if you fight into a full bar.
Level 6KledChaaaaaaaaarge!!! gives you an engage, knockback-into-terrain, and roam Renekton can't answer — your cleanest kill window.
First itemEven / skillYour Eclipse/Trinity combo peaks but his empowered fury W stun on his item spike trades evenly — pick your moment, don't force it.
Two+ itemsEven / skillHis point-click stun still interrupts every all-in and his Q heal eats your burst — peel with R and let your team take the duel.

How to beat Renekton as Kled: the early game

Renekton owns the very early game here — his point-click W stun lands the instant you commit your W shots and can cancel your re-E mid-dash, and his fury-empowered Q both damages you and heals him through your trades. Don't contest the level-1 or level-2 all-in; your W (Violent Tendencies) shots need uninterrupted autos and his stun denies exactly that. Hold Skaarl's health, last-hit at range, and wait until level 3 when E-W-E and your percent-HP Q give you a real combo — and only swing it when his fury bar is empty and his W is on cooldown.
