Renekton also seems pretty strong with his buffs. The one in my game snowballed so hard from his lane dominance. 3-1 atm in my placements. Doubt I'll get a better placement than my 8-2 from last season though. Havent played many games in the last couple of months.
As a renekton main, its ...almost the same, if you snowball early, you can affect the game by roaming everywhere. The 'buffs' are actually terrible if ur lane opponent can get away from you extremely quickly (i.e. gnar, a good teemo, etc.) because the rage doesn't build as quickly without brawling with a champion. New mechanics were introduced where slicing through minions however building fury, so you can build fury using SD but lose ur escape.
Usually I can surprise my lane opponent by being near 50 fury, and if they are 50% health, dicing through, empowered stun, aa q aa ignite, and using my last dice to close gap when they flash away, or flash ahead myself for a pretty easy kill.
and lategame is still lategame, didn't get much help there, you just have more fury to q for more health. that's about it.
