Fizz vs Rengar

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Prioritize early jungle tempo and river brush control to deny Rengar's invade and pick threat.
Use Fizz's mobility and burst to contest Scuttle when nearby lanes hold priority, preventing Rengar's objective setup.

Jungle Plan

Path for standard clear into Scuttle contest when lanes have river priority to deny Rengar vision and objectives.
Invade or counter-jungle only when Rengar is spotted on opposite side or after he uses (R) to exploit his cooldown window.
Prioritize early dragon setup and burst ganks post-level 6 to snowball lanes and force Rengar into reactive play.

Danger windows

Respect Rengar's early invade windows near river brush when lanes lack priority; avoid isolated fights favoring his empowered dueling.
Be cautious contesting Scuttle without lane support as Rengar's brush control and root (E) can trap and punish you.
Avoid low-health clears or forced smite fights where Rengar can capitalize on burst and mobility for kills or objectives.

Early game

Full clear quickly to hit level 3 before Rengar can threaten invades or river fights.
Contest first Scuttle only if your lanes can pressure river to avoid risky isolated fights near brush.
Avoid early river invades without vision and lane support due to Rengar's strong brush control and empowered abilities.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Fizz's full combo with (Q), (W), and (E) enabling strong burst trades and safe disengage; use this to punish Rengar's overextensions.
Level 6 (R) significantly increases kill pressure; track Rengar's ultimate cooldown to time aggressive plays or defensive resets.
First completed AP assassin item boosts damage and objective pressure; leverage this to force Rengar off camps and secure dragons.

Win conditions

Convert early jungle tempo and level 3 spike into aggressive Scuttle control and counter-jungling to deny Rengar farm.
Use level 6 ultimate burst to secure picks around dragon or Rift Herald, creating numbers advantages for objectives.
Maintain vision and river brush control to limit Rengar's invade angles and force him into unfavorable teamfights where Fizz excels.
