Yes, armor does counter the AD casters... but in the COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN way it counters Renekton. You might be thinking "well build a Last Whisper if they stack up armor" but if you do that, you encounter his massively ridiculous CDs as compared to someone like Riven who is spam happy late game. Basically Renekton has INCREDIBLY limited choices: go full tank and do 0 damage, go off-tank and be squishy but do a little damage, go DPS and die in a few shots. I think if Riot would release him with his ORIGINAL stats, he'd be considered balanced by todays bruiser/solo top champions (I am comparing him to trynda/yi/GP/irelia/fiora late game).
