[14.18] Tristana guide by misterfirstblood

By misterfirstblood
Introduction
Hello guys, I'm MisterFirstBlood from EUW and today I'm gonna show you how to play Tristana
Pro's and con's
+ Synergies pretty well with every Keystone rune
+ Super strong in early
+ Waveclear
+ High attack range
+ A pretty nice mobility tool

- Weird scaling in to late, Hail of blades gives you good early, in mid you get weaker but in late you outrange most of champs what makes her okay again.
- AP scaling on R, W and E. Abilities won't do a lot of damage in late.
- Can't freeze well because of passive
Spells
Passive: Draw a Bead


Increases Tristana's Attack Range as she levels.

Q: Rapid Fire
Tristana fires her weapon rapidly, increasing her Attack Speed for a short time.

W: Rocket Jump
Tristana fires at the ground to propel her to a distant location, dealing damage and slowing surrounding units for a brief period where she lands.

E : Explosive Charge
When Tristana kills a unit, her cannonballs burst into shrapnel, dealing damage to surrounding enemies. Can be activated to place a bomb on a target enemy that explodes after a short duration dealing damage to surrounding units.

R: Buster Shot
Tristana loads a massive cannonball into her weapon and fires it at an enemy unit. This deals Magic Damage and knocks the target back. If the target is carrying the Explosive Charge bomb, the bomb detonation radius is doubled.
Items
Kraken Slayer might be one of the more obvious choices on tristana because you have to attack the same target over and over again if you want to utilize her fully stacked E ability to reset the W ability's cooldown, so kraken slayer is the perfect mythic item choice for you. To get the needed critical strike chance Navori Flickerblade and Infinity Edge are your best choices for generic second and third items. Sometimes you have to skip IE for Lord Dominik's Regards when there are too many tanks around.

your final items should be either Bloodthirster Mercurial Scimitar or Maw of Malmortius
Runes
Press the Attack synergies too good with your E ability not to use it. Triumph and Treasure Hunter are also great runes for all-in based champs like tristana why your secondary tree should be Domination.

Coup de Grace Eyeball Collection and Legend: Alacrity are great additions to maximize damage outcome.
Tips
- You can do insec moves by jumping behind an enemy with W and kicking him in your team with R. When he dies you are able to jump out again without using flash.
- If your W is on cooldown try to land your fully stacked E by using Q afterwards and spamming attacks on an enemy. If the bomb explodes your cooldown gets resetted and you can maybe escape. Attacking is sometimes the best defense.
- Dont always use R to execute enemies. You can deny engages from champs like leona or alistar with it and save yourself or teammates.
- If you manage to get a fully stacked E of, you W cooldown will reset. Using that mechanic while in air allows you to perform multiple jumps and going for impactful plays in teamfights.
- Reposition yourself with W as often as you can. Everytime you get an assist or kill it's cooldown gets resetted and you can jump again.
- You are very good at pushing towers, so really try to survive teamfights, rather dont get a kill and die afterwards than dying for a kill.
- When you cant dodge a binding or hook, activate W before you get hit. You will escape anyway. Tristana's dash is one of the oldschool dashes that still work like this. But still remember ; you have to activate it before get hit and you may not be able to escape from everything. You will have to learn how exactly it behaives.
Summary
Tristana isn't the best late game champ anymore but I really enjoy playing her because hail of blades and a fully stacked E in early can make your opponents explode within seconds. If you reach the late game it can be fun aswell but in my opinion there are stronger choices rn.
Thank You!
Thanks for paying attention to my guide. My English is not the best so if you find mistakes feel free to correct me.
