Yeah, well I was drawn in by the perma-slow and the health that frozen offered.

Ok, my Final Yi Atmog's build could profit from Trinity Force as good as from Frozen Mallet. But idk if 450 HP less make a difference. You should build BVeil then^^.

Well, the 250 HP of Trinity Force also help^^.

BTW: Quoted into my guide with some more codes^^.

Stats:





Trinity Force

HP: 3612
AD: 421
CRD: 2.6
CRC: 0.6
%AS: 165,06
ARP: 61
%ARP: 0

Frozen Mallet
HP: 4062
AD: 420
CRD: 2.6
CRC: 0.45
%AS: 135,06
ARP: 61
%ARP: 0

As you can see, Trinity Force deals more dmg, without calculated the proc. But is that worth it? You also die faster.

I tried the TriForce on my tankyi. I was not impressed. So for when going with a straight tank CC item, FM is better. However, I have used Saintvicious Jungle Yi a lot more recently, and I would definitely prefer the TriForce on his build rather than the FM. This may boil down to personal play style however. I am more defensive and play tanky when possible.

TF is good on so many champions. Totally my favourite item.

FM? nah. For Garen perhaps. But Garen is kind of lame i think, so I don't bother.

Well. Perhaps you die a bit faster, but I don't see ANY reason NOT to build Trinity on Yi. Superior imo.

i think trinity force has more uses. there is a build guide here and i agree with it i don't know where it went tho talking about trinity tanks. there off tanks or tanks using trinity force and there use of abililitys to max out damage wile being really tanky. i use trinity force on trundle when i play and it damage out put is just really good it shoots up look for the guide and you can see why trinity force is favored more

Imo, Trinity Force doesn't give enough DPS for what it's worth, and not enough utility to make up for the lack of damage either. This is WITH the damage proc calculated in on level 18 Xin (no steroids factored in) (once per 2 seconds).

And 250 hp isn't really called survivability.

You get Triforce on carries/people who want damage or want some damage but mainly tank. You want FM on people who want tank and already have damage.

If you go Yi and you build Boots, IE, PD, BT, you build FM cause you have damage and want tank
If you go Yi and you build boots, Atma's, BV, IE, you build Triforce cause you already have tank and you want more damage.

on someone like Jarvan (who has the highest base armor in the game) with Wriggles, Mercs, Warmogs, Atma's, you get a triforce cause you have enough tankiness and now you need damage, not a FM, even if you do have atma's.

You could also share Trinity Force with Phantom Dancer.

I bet Trinity Force wins, too^^.

BTW: Flubado, the graphs should have a start point at the flat armorpen/armorred.

Yap.

Double click the "axis" to change your viewing area. Click the check box next to it once to make it look better (don't know the correct term for that look).
