Tristana

OtterlyLost··1 votes·798 views

Can riot actually buff her in a meaningful way? Giving her a useless higher AD Ratio will not help and will likely lead to her needing a damage nerf when she is finally made viable. The nerfs they gave her pre 8.11 being reverted would have gone a long way toward stabilizing her with out adding any damage to her; all it would have done was give her a slightly safer laning phase. It would put her back at 550 attack range instead of 525 so she didn't have to walk up so close to farm against these extremely poke heavy or all in kill lane bots. As it was, she pretty much got triple nerfed with no compensation buffs, just revealing another sign of riot's extreme laziness with 8.11.

Leaving her at a 43% winrate is shitty and heart breaking for someone who has enjoyed tristana's company through many games of league. It's like watching a good friend slowly die and knowing you really cant do anything.

you mean like stormrazor getting massively buffed, and ER nerfed aswell as her direct buff? Yeah. What other way would they buff tris without her being too oppressive to play against like she was before 8.9?

Because dying in 0.3sec to a Tristana with item 3087 item 3031 was fun I guess

Stormrazor is a noob trap item; it just delays your build and adding 5 AD to it literally does nothing to help crit ADC's who want consistent damage and not burstier. Stormrazor is better suited for ADCs like Jhin or for assassins like Rengar. :/ And she was not oppressive before 8.9. She had a very steady 50% winrate with a fairly low play rate; the top ADC's before patch 8.9 were Ezreal, Kai'sa, and MF who are still the top ADC's.

You never died in .3 seconds to Tristana with two items and if you did, you fucked up severely and deserved it. :/
