r/RenataMains

I'm like exclusively a meele sup player and the closest i typically get to a range champ is throwing skarner q's in lane or pretending my autos are projectiles as rakan.

i think renata is probably the closest I've come to liking a range champ but it feels underwhelming and i can't tell if it's just a mastery issue or the champ. especially since she's got the "pro jail" title.

she seems to do well based on this: https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/champions/winrates-by-xp but I don't know the sample size and I don't really understand what the difference is between a good and a bad renata. especially since i never see anyone play it.

Guys, I don't know why i've never seen this change suggested anywhere by anyone. I've always had a couple problems with her ultimate. One is that enemies can build tenacity against it. Berserk should behave like knockup, immune to tenacity. The duration is already short enough, nobody should be able to shorten it further.

Second, how badass would it be if her ultimate could berserk the baron and dragons?!?!! Idk why i've NEVER thought about it cause i've thought about tons of ways her ultimate could change. What do you guys think? Would it make a difference at all? I feel like her ult working on dragon, as in berserking it and increasing its attack speed, could really incentivize more renatas to hold ult for drag fights and help with her winrate overall.

Since its been so long since Renata has gotten a skin (especially not including the battlepass one) I've been thinking a lot about what her next skin could be. With the rumours of faerie court I was really hoping for her to be a part of that skin line but since those were announced and she wasn't I've been thinking more and if the rumours are true that KDA is having a comeback I feel like a KDA manager skin would be super fun and suit her really well!!

Any thoughts, ideas or wishes on what her next skin could be??

Does anyone know if the "Vivida" chroma from that one expensive bundle that came out a while ago can appear in the mythic shop? I've been waiting for it for so long and not even once have i seen it and its the only Renata chroma im missing 😭

It would suck if Renata ulti did damage, because if you were trying to berserk an important enemy ADC and then they died, they wouldn't deal damage.

But wait, that also applies to your allies' damage. That sucks too. It's important to kill the enemy Yi, but you need that Yi to be alive to deal damage to his own team.

I present to you: W revive, but applied to enemies. If a berserked enemy dies while under the effect of Renata's ult, they will be revived with a gray health bar that ticks down over the remaining duration of the ultimate. (Getting kills doesn't turn this into a true revive.) The dead enemy will be lower on the berserk priority list than alive enemies, so they'll only hit a gray health enemy if there's no enemy champions left alive to hit.

This allows a good renata ultimate to apply its benefits more consistently even in cases where you have one full health enemy and one low health enemy, taking some of the randomness out of the ultimate. It will also reduce the instances of those highly unsatisfying renata ultis where you get a massive 5 man clustered ulti and the enemy ADC dies right away so nobody else dies and you potentially even lose the fight because of it.

I'd also accept it giving them all Trynda ult and then dealing a pop of damage at the end, like a Kindred ult in reverse. But I think that would be off-brand for a support since you would end up claiming every kill that happens during any ult.

I have always loved playing Renata and always will, but ever since Anathema’s was removed I have to say no build path has ever felt as satisfying on her. I like Bandlepipes and Locket a lot but I always feel like I’m missing something.

Are there any items you guys miss or wish she worked better with? Or an item idea you’d wanna see to use with her? I also wouldn’t mind if she had more incentive for just any particular build path rather than just being able to use anything she chooses decently well

Though I also kinda feel like being able to buy whatever from the shop and get like 70% value from it is kinda thematically appropriate lol
