Guide to Synergizing Swain and Renekton

Tips for Playing as Swain with Renekton

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.

Advice to Understand How Renekton Will Play

Cull the Meek drains an enormous amount of life when used in the middle of the fray. You can use this to bait opponents into thinking you are weaker than you really are.

Slice and Dice excels at harassing maneuvers. Slice in, follow up with another skill and then Dice back out to safety.

Cooldown reduction is especially good for Renekton, allowing him to both quickly build up and use his Fury.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Renekton.

Is Swain better when played alongside Renekton?

There is no perfect synergy for Swain that will no matter what be his ideal teammate. Yet, overall, Renekton is a relatively poor ally for Swain. By being on the same team as Swain, he lowers their win rate by -3.0% to 48.3%. This shows that there is a harmful bond between Swain and Renekton that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Renekton has a much lower diffuclty than Swain. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Renekton teammates to fight alongside, as they will need a much lower level of skill to fight well with you.

Playing alongside, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Together, these two can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

In contrast, by bringing Swain and Renekton together, you may not be providing your team very much crowd control. Plan to have other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Renekton ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
