This is an incredibly well made and thorough guide. However, I have a couple of critiques. First off, I generally don't care for item builds that involve switching boots because they can get a little confusing sometimes, and secondly I think your cheat sheet should only list the core items of the build and not all the possibilities for the first return (you did a fine job explaining all the alternate items in the actual guide). Other than that, I think this guide is absolutely brilliant and you definitely deserve an upvote!

@master: Trinity may be alright in early/mid game, but it fails late game where Tristana shines. The AP and Spellvamp is kinda wasted on her if you're going an AD build. I'll have to playtest to really know, but theory-wise, I don't like having stats I don't make use of.

Yommu is meh because Tristana can't use it to its fullest potential (not a melee character).

It really depends, however, on what items you are replacing with these items. I consider Infinity Edge and Phantom Dancer to be staples and the two provide enough AD, crit chance, and move speed to blow yommu out of the water.

@PresBarackbar: Merc treads is really late game if the opponents have CC. Doesn't matter really if they don't.

Cheat sheet shows which basic items you should get. (e.g. a bf sword after boots but before berserk greaves). Idk, I'm personally irked if there isn't an order to the basic items. Personal preference I guess.

Trinity should NEVER be bought on trist, not only because she doesn't really benefit from it all that well, but because one of the best things about it (the 150% damage proc) is terrible on her, because she has very low base damage :o

youmuu is better for melee champs.

http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/critana-a-force-to-be-reckoned-with-149449#comment-379878

he put T.Force into that build, and.. i've tested that and is not THAT bad.. but i feel that late game.. T.Force < P.Dancer / G.Angel or other Critical Dmg Item

I really wonder why this build guide is not even over 80%...

It really seems like people are disagreeing with you on certain points, and I've seen that Sophie Lhant guy just rant on a bit on how the burst combo won't work etc. I think the main reason this guide is below 80% is because people just don't bother to look at your explanations and choices.

I see that you are a really devoted Tristana player and that you have put a lot of effort into this guide, as well as great explanations on your choices. The step micro part is really helpful to improve new and experienced players alike. I was considering to put it in my guide as well (lol, I don't think I'm allowed to :P).

I have seen this guide for many months now, but I felt like I did not have the reason to comment and upvote until now. I will say that this is one of the better Tristana guides out there and you definitely deserve another upvote to keep you going ^_^

tl;dr I like it, and I think it deserves a higher score.

+1

EDIT: Oops, seems like I have upvoted this guide before :)

Yay Luv u <3

Feel free to put w.e. you want in your guide. I could care less about MY guide's score as long as good info on Tristana is spread throughout the LoL community... Unless it gets to the point where my Tristana is being stolen in champ select. Then I rage. :P

Lol, thanks! ^_^

Yeah, so I'd like to use your step micro stuff. I really can't be stuffed to make any pictures/videos lately :P I have a few in my comp atm, but yours is way better by a long shot. Permission granted I suppose? ^_^

Thanks, and yeah, I rage when someone else picks Tristana, especially in ranked or when they muck up the whole game (even when I give them tips and advice :O).

Yes, ofc. I'd appreciate it though, if you gave credit to me, since it did take me a while to photoshop the picts.
