if you building Stormrazor not Phantom Dancer as second you are NPC not a real person

Cool, I want to learn how to play Tristana and this guide sounds perfect. I've always seen a lot of her guides about adcs but I didn't play that often to see one, now I can use these super cool builds and runes

I'm using this build for a long time and it's very strong i like it:p

amazing guide

nice build

> It (Ravenous Hunter) will likely never be so weak that she would actually realistically consider any of the other options.
This aged well...which rune do you recommend in that slot now? I'm thinking either Treasure Hunter or Ultimate Hunter

Treasure Hunter 100%, it's just as good as Ravenous Hunter. All the other options still suck for her in comparison.

Hello, kind of new player so had a question, what is your opinion on Navore galeblade as a late game item?
It could give you a second E cast on a fight

(626) |

It's decent if you can afford to build another super expensive pure damage item besides IE. Generally I stick to cheaper/more defensive items at that stage of the game though.

Been trying navori as second item and even with only 40% crit it refreshes q entirely before it runs out.
It might be just becuse I am low rank, but it is working preety good for me since every kill practically refreshes all cd.

I don't think it's the best 2nd item but it's not the worst either. Keep building it if it works for you.

i like this, thank's

After 6 years, Vapora's Guide to Tristana is getting a massive rewrite. Let's see if I can get this done in time for the guide contest!

bread 👍

Why you archived your Kaisa guide? Please, revert it. It is still the best one!

Hi!
This guide is really good when i play trist but as you metioned her mid game is kinda weak. Could a ghostblade rush make up for this? Thx for the guide :D

(626) |

It would make it less weak, but it'd still be below average and suboptimal.

Youmuu's ADC's have builds that synergize well with a Ghostblade rush, such as following up with Cleaver/Draktharr while still being strong as hell. It's not the case for , who uses neither item well, and would need to keep using a regular ADC build after , probably . But with Youmuu's and Runaan's she'd be weaker than with IE and Runaan's since Youmuu's and Runaan's don't synergize well.

The meta before its rework was perfect for her since it gave her early-mid game a huge boost in power and synergized perfectly with a followup into the regular ADC build. Unfortunately is kind of a standalone powerspike item which doesn't synergize with any of the other items Trist would want to build. It's stronger as a single item, but never as a combination of items.

Mind you I haven't playtested it so I'm just theory crafting here, but I think if Youmuu's were optimal on Trist it'd already be known given how popular Youmuu's has become on other ADC's.
