Guide to Synergizing Rengar and Swain

Tips for Playing as Rengar with Swain

Make sure to take paths through brush when chasing opponents to take advantage of Rengar's passive.

Use Rengar's ultimate to find and assassinate high priority targets in team fights and skirmishes.

A lot of Rengar's power comes from empowered abilities he uses at the right moment - choose wisely!

Advice to Understand How Swain Will Play

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.
