Do I scare you summoner? Nocturne in the current meta: a numerical comparison with Rengar




VS



Leading up to worlds and partially thanks to the nerfs to the top three junglers, both Rengar and Nocturne have started to gain a niche popularity within the competitive meta. Rengar is for the moment a very weird pick as it seems that only Korean junglers (and more notably Dandy from Samsung White) have been able to use him effectively. Nocturne on the other hand has seen a rise in popularity as of late in most regions (Europe is the only major one where Nocturne has not been played recently) with generally good results. In this article, I will be comparing these two junglers, with an emphasis on numerical analysis.
