Rengar vs Locke Counter Pick

This is a physical-versus-physical exchange between Rengar and Locke. Rengar opens on 590 health and 34 armour, Locke on 655 and 32. By level 18 that becomes 2358 health and 105 armour for Rengar against 2508 and 103 for Locke. Base attack damage is 68 against 58, so Rengar wins the raw auto-attack exchange. Rengar moves quicker at base (345 against 340), which shows up on roams.

This is a melee mirror in terms of reach — 125 versus 125 — so spacing matters less than ability timing.

Battle Roar (W) and Purgatory (R) are usually what decide a trade between Rengar and Locke. Then it becomes Thrill of the Hunt against Purgatory, and the one still holding it sets the terms. Rengar pays in Ferocity, Locke in Mana, so extended trades drain them at different rates.

Rengar is the more demanding of the two to pilot (8/10 versus 5/10), which quietly shapes the win rate. 1,392 games sit behind that figure, and it moves whenever Rengar or Locke gets tuned.
