Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Use Rengar's superior early invade resistance and brush control to contest Rek'Sai's aggressive early jungle pressure and deny her tempo.
Leverage (R) stealth hunts around river brush to create picks that secure dragon and Rift Herald advantages.

Jungle Plan

Invade Rek'Sai's jungle early when your lanes have priority to deny her fast clear tempo and snowball potential.
Use brush control and (R) to create picks before starting dragon or Rift Herald setups.
Track Rek'Sai's tunnel placements to anticipate her gank paths and counter-gank effectively with your dueling strength.

Danger windows

Beware Rek'Sai's early level 3-4 invade timing when she can use tunnels for surprise ganks or escapes.
Avoid isolated river fights without brush control where Rek'Sai can use (W) knockup and (R) execute chase.
Be cautious contesting dragon or Scuttle when Rek'Sai's nearby lanes lack pressure and can assist her.

Early game

Start your clear in brush-heavy camps to maximize empowered (E) roots and maintain invade safety.
Only contest first Scuttle when your nearby lanes have priority to avoid Rek'Sai's tunnel ganks.
Avoid open river fights without brush control to reduce risk from Rek'Sai's (W) knockup and tunnel mobility.

Power spikes

At level 3, use empowered (E) near brush to win duels and punish Rek'Sai's aggressive three-camp path early.
Post-6, leverage (R) stealth to threaten isolated picks, forcing Rek'Sai to play cautiously around river objectives.
Respect Rek'Sai's early gank power and (W) knockup before your key item spikes; avoid extended fights without brush control.

Win conditions

Deny Rek'Sai free farm and tempo by invading when lanes have priority, forcing her into reactive play and scaling denial.
