Ahri vs Renekton

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Ahri's high early agency and poke to deny Renekton free farm and prevent him from stacking fury for empowered trades.
Focus on lane priority and short trades to snowball leads and create roam opportunities before Renekton's all-in spikes.

Trading pattern

Trade with (Q) and (W) for poke, only using (E) when Renekton commits or expends mobility to punish.
Capitalize on Renekton's low fury or after he uses both (E) casts forward by landing (E) and disengaging.
Avoid trades when Renekton has empowered (W) or full fury ready to prevent getting stunned and bursted.

Danger windows

Respect Renekton's high fury and empowered (W) stun window; avoid stepping into his burst range.
Beware of Renekton's double (E) dash engage combined with (W) stun for quick all-in trades.
Play cautiously before level 6 or when (R) is down, as Ahri is vulnerable to Renekton's all-in potential.

Early game

Start with short (Q) and (W) trades to chip Renekton while respecting his fury buildup and stun threat.
Hold (E) to punish Renekton's forward commits or when he wastes both (E) dashes aggressively.
Avoid extended trades before level 6 when Renekton's burst and stun combo is strongest.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to extend picks, roam safely, or escape Renekton's all-in attempts.
After first mage item, increase wave pressure and short trades to leverage improved damage.
Respect Renekton's level 3 full combo and level 6 (R) all-in power by avoiding fights unless (R) is available.

Win conditions

Land (E) to pick off Renekton after he overcommits or wastes cooldowns, then follow up with short (Q) and (W) trades.
Control wave tempo to create roam windows and pressure other lanes using (R) mobility.
Deny Renekton calm scaling by forcing short trades and punishing his cooldowns to snowball lane lead into map impact.
