I was reading up on my favourite ad carry yesterday and since before I know ap tristana is an alternative. Then I saw her amazing scaling.. 0.8 on jump, 1 on E and 1.5 on ultimate... Which means that at 500 AP her full combo would be 1650 damage from ap alone, and then I didn't count basic skill damage which is another 1k or so. Ofc before mr.

And her jump is aoe and a slow, plus it resets on both kills and assist...
The numbers seems pretty viable, but how about her gameplay?

Is hybrid an alternative or do you go one or the other?

AP Tristana is semi-viable. The only thing that sets her back is her massive cooldowns on her abilities.

And Rapid Fire is useless if you go AP.

Hybrid? Uh, I don't think so. Either AD or AP.

Hybrid was the thought of using her passive and q while using her other skills to their fullest.

I see a possible Rylais, Hextech, rabadons, IE, roa sorcs / Mercs build if hybrid...

And hybrid would give you killing power between cds...

AP is the only way I know how to play her.

Ap tris is amazingly fun, but I don't think it's viable unless her cd is reduced.

Yep, very CD dependent. Strong laning phase, late game she can pretty much auto-kill any target she wants, but after than cooldowns are an issue. She relies on kills to refresh Rocket Jump so if she blows everything on a target and doesn't get the kill it's extremely punishing
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

Eh... If you go for Frozen Heart and Morellos Evil Tome for the CDR i suppose it would be viable... But it would nearly require an entirely different playstyle and mentality... Idk, worth a shot, but ad trist is, imo, too potent a carry to want to try to mess with her to run her in mid.

its really fun, but personally i think its harder to carry with. also its harder to get the team to cooperate with you. if you are playing premade however, GO PLAY AP TRIST~
