Ziggs vs Renekton

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Use long-range poke and waveclear to deny Renekton early fury stacks and prevent his short trades.
Maintain distance and avoid giving Renekton windows to engage with empowered (W) or double (E) dashes.
Prioritize lane control and turret pressure to leverage your scaling and siege strengths against his early lane bully style.

Trading pattern

Poke with (Q) from max range and zone Renekton with (E) minefields to control his approach paths.
Save (W) for emergency disengage or turret execute pressure, never use it carelessly when Renekton can follow up.
Punish Renekton after he uses both (E) casts forward or when his empowered (W) is on cooldown by stepping up with poke.

Danger windows

Beware when Renekton has high fury and empowered (W) available; avoid extended trades and maintain spacing.
Respect Renekton's double (E) dash for engage and disengage; punish only when the second dash is used or unavailable.
Be vulnerable when (W) is down; play cautiously to avoid all-ins during this cooldown.

Early game

Focus on clearing waves safely with (Q) and (E) to keep Renekton from stacking fury and engaging.
Avoid extended trades before level 6; use (W) to disengage if Renekton commits with (E) and empowered (W).
Track Renekton's fury and second (E) cast to punish when his escape is limited.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) for cross-map pressure and forced fights when Renekton is low or trapped.
After your first mage poke item, pressure waves and trades confidently while tracking Renekton's cooldowns.
Respect Renekton's level 3 full combo with empowered (W) and double (E); avoid trades without (W) ready for disengage.

Win conditions

Use superior waveclear and poke to deny Renekton early fury buildup and short trades.
Convert lane pressure into turret damage using (W) turret executes when safe.
Leverage level 6 (R) to force fights or roams that capitalize on Renekton's cooldowns and limited mobility.
