Tryndamere is pretty much a melee AD carry known for his high physical damage and critical strikes. He is perfect against melee and immobile champions but struggles against opponents who stack armor or go the very skilled item building, bramble vest – ninja tabi.

With his high AD and an ultimate that gives him temporary immortality, Tryndamere is a very good split pusher capable of diving enemies under turrets. He thrives off early kills and being proactive in the game to build up momentum, falling behind can make it very challenging for him to have an impact. Therefore, mastering Tryndamere’s early game is crucial for his success.

Starting Items: Doran's Shield is the best starting item for Tryndamere, providing the ideal balance of offense and defense, allowing for increased trading opportunities and enhanced durability against opponent pressure.

First Items: Berserker's Greaves is the optimal first item to rush as it provides valuable attack speed and movement speed, essential stats for Tryndamere. Tiamat allows for faster and more efficient minion wave clearing. The lifesteal from Vampiric Scepter is great for maintaining high HP, enabling you to stay on the map longer.

Core Items: Ravenous Hydra is a powerful AD item that lets you stay on the map forever until you choose to recall and lets you split push/farm much faster and reliably. Essence Reaver is the perfect item for Tryndamere, offering CDR, AD, and Crit stats that increase his burst damage and a sheen proc that functions as an extra critical strike, all at a cost-effective price allowing you to obtain it quickly. Eclipse is a highly effective item for Tryndamere, providing strong lethality, a 6-second cooldown shield, burst damage, essential movement speed, and insane ability haste.

Full Build: Infinity Edge is another very strong item, it increases your damage drastically by increasing your crit damage. Phantom Dancer is great when playing against team compositions where you need the extra movement speed or need to spike right away, it can be chosen over Infinity Edge because it costs 800 less gold. But you still need to build IE after.
