Renata Glasc is set to be released within League of Legends in patch 12.4. Therefore, knowing the perfect builds for her is necessary to make the most out of her kit right from the start.

Every time a brand new champion is released within the game, they are usually a bit overtuned. Therefore, in order to enjoy the champion, it is vital to play from the first day itself.

It is important to understand that Renata is not very different in terms of build. However, it is her playstyle that is going to differ from the way in which most supports are used in the game.


Detailed runes, item build and playstyle for Renata Glasc for League of Legends patch 12.4

Renata is a very unique champion within League of Legends. Her ability to turn enemies against one another is something that is going to play a massive role in relation to team fights.

However, despite her immensely powerful kit, she is a squishy champion in the end. She does not have any escape and will get killed very easily. Thus, building protective items on her is vital in order to ensure sustainability as she will often be the prime target for enemy carries.

When it comes to Renata's playstyle there is not a lot to say in relation to her abilities. This is because they are self-explanatory and will be used only in specific situations.

However, the key aspect that Renata players need to be concerned with is their positioning. Renata is someone who can damage enemies, revive allies and also turn enemies against one another.
