Lee Sin vs Rengar

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Lee Sin's very high early game pressure to force river fights and invade before Rengar can scale.
Prioritize early river control and creative gank angles to snowball and deny Rengar free farm and objective access.

Jungle Plan

Path to invade or counter-invade around level 3 when (Q) and (W) mobility allow safe river access and skirmishes.
Contest Scuttle Crab aggressively if lanes can support to deny Rengar brush control and objective vision.
Use tempo resets after successful ganks to maintain jungle pressure and deny Rengar full clears or safe invades.

Danger windows

Respect Rengar's first river move and early invade timing when he has lane priority and brush control.
Avoid isolated river fights before level 3 or without vision as Rengar's brush leaps and empowered (E) root can punish overextensions.
Be cautious during forced smite fights on dragon or Rift Herald where Rengar can use stealth (R) to create picks or disrupt your team.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear aimed at hitting level 3 quickly to contest or invade river.
Fight for first Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to secure vision and deny Rengar control.
Avoid low-value early fights without lane priority or vision to prevent getting caught by Rengar's brush leaps and empowered (E).

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks full kit enabling strong dueling and invade potential; use this to force river fights and punish Rengar's early pathing.
Level 6 (R) provides displacement to isolate targets or disrupt Rengar's objective attempts; prioritize fights where you can kick him into your team.
Early damage item spike enhances your burst and dueling power; leverage this to secure kills or force Rengar off camps.

Win conditions

Convert early invade pressure and river control into secured Scuttle Crabs and early dragon setups to deny Rengar objectives.
Use (Q) and (W) mobility for creative ganks on priority lanes to snowball leads and force Rengar onto the back foot.
Track Rengar's pathing to counter-jungle safely and reset tempo after successful ganks to maintain map control and deny his scaling.
