Tryndamere is antifun

paperbIade·Nov 7, 2015·83 votes·6,788 views

Why does this champion get to splitpush and 1v1 all the champions in the game and gets to live with 1 hp because of that ult also he one shots all the adc in the game. Oh and btw if you try to run away from him he slows you and then proceed to one shot your adc don't say thronmail because it got nerfed and tryndamere can just bulid to counter thornmail. Btw jax doesn't beat tryndamere 1v1 so don't say that bs

And don't even try to catch him because he will escape with ez and destroys the nexus while you are teamfighting

Just cc him. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

But yeah, he's really stupid. No resource(with downsides), a free heal, mobility, and immunity to death on a low cooldown.

He's not overpowered by ANY MEANS, I'd say he's actually pretty bad. BUT, his kit is very frustrating to play against, although very easily to deal with, those 5 seconds of invulnerability just make you feel helpless in some situations.

Tryndamere has a 53.16 percent winrate in diamond elo meanwhile jax has a 49.67 winrate in diamond so yeah tryndamere is viable in any elo. He is pretty much freelo because any retard can play that champion with ez

1: Jax is shit, idk why your using that comparison 2: Winrates don't mean much, at all. Heimerdinger has one of the highest win rates, does that make him OP? Hell no, Heimers easy as hell to beat with just a bit of coordination. 3: Theres a reason Tryndamere is NEVER played in the LCS. If he was strong he would at least have see one game of play, maybe.

I remember that one game AP Tryn was brought in top lane. He got his ass handed to him and was unable to do anything.

And then AP Tryn was nuked from orbit due to people (understandably) having trouble in solo queue. As for normal ADC trynd, yeah I don't think he's ever seen a day of competitive play.

He has been used occasionally in competitive play, but not often. It's irrelevant though.

Professional play and Solo Q are not synonymous. Not even in Challenger, according to the few streamers I've seen comment on it (Bjergson: Darius is good in Solo Q, Dyrus: Blitzcrank is a Solo Q god).

ChaoticPineconeNov 8, 20152 votes

I gotta put a * on number 3:

When Tryn was played in Pro play back in S2, the player decided that AP Tryn was the better Tryndamere.

Well, LCS doesn't exactly determine viability in Solo Q. You have to remember that in Solo Q there exists a bare minimum amount of coordination until you get to high Platinum. This is why champions like Tryndamere, Shaco, Heimerdinger, and Rengar are able to dominate games; they are easy to play around, but it's a group effort.

Shaco and Rengar are countered by good ward coverage and grouping.

Tryndamere is countered by effective rotating.

Heimerdinger is countered by good team fighting, outranging him in sieges, and quickly pushing objectives before he can set up camp.

But, against an unorganized team who's members don't all participate in warding, don't communicate enough to know when to rotate, push, siege, take Epic Monster Objectives, or how to cohesively fight as a team, these champions are near unstoppable because their "effectiveness scales with the carelessness of their enemies." -Stonewall008

ZephyrDrakeNov 7, 201520 votes

why are you trying to 1v1 trynd as an ADC? that sounds like a recipe for disaster

paperbIadeNov 8, 20156 votes

I am not? do you know that tryndamere can dive under the tower lol?

NarasimhaNov 8, 201516 votes

So can a lot of champions. Hell, diving an ADC is practically expected. Hence the term 'glass cannon'.

Most "Melee ADCs" (something that Riot never figured out how to make properly) have a defensive mechanics that is would be essentially BS on any champion but they must have it in order for them to be playable: Gangplank has a cleanse+heal on a basic skill. Yasuo has his shield and windwall. Aatrox supposedly has his revive passive and his drain attributes MasterYi has his heal+damage mitigation on a basic skill. Some of them are kinda BS, some are less, but Tryndamere 's ultimate is probably the worst of them all and you could see that his design is old.

So, to sum up... Yes! Tryndamere is antifun. Fuck him. Thank god almost nobody plays him.

StealWolverineNov 8, 20156 votes

tryndamere has the most power in one skill. yi however is much much less kiteable, and also has the ability to avoid skillshots. yas has way more teamfight utility than almost any other melee adc between windwall knockup and his ult. gp has a global ult, and aoe armor ignoring crits dont know what to say about aatrox, since i dont really consider him a true melee carry. He really is a drain tank.

Watch out, Tryndamere mains will come crying and say he needs lots of buffs....

His ult alone is the most bullshit ult in the entire game. At least Kindred's is sorta more fair to everyone who decides to jump in.

Tryndamere is pretty annoying, so is the player base. They just keep split pushing, kinda all they do.

Luckily... You can beat Tryndamere early game if you bring ignite spell which is something I always run regardless along with TP as I don't use flash anymore with good success anyways. So to beat this champion, bring ignite and don't ignite him til his undying rage comes up, or a second or two after at least. He then becomes easy.

because he actually needs buffs. All his core items have been nerfed hard throughout season 4,5 and infinity edge will be nerfed again by the 15 AD reduction.

Only Play DariusNov 7, 20159 votes

First of all: Learn Nasus and you will never worry about Tryndamere again.

Second: Tryndamere is an extremely old champion and Riot back then didn't have the experience they do now, they have stated that they wouldn't have made him today.

Third: Tryndamere is a god-tier splitpusher because that's all he can do. He is complete shit at teamfighting against any balanced team comp ( as in a comp with some disengage and modest CC). He is designed to overwhelm/frustrate his lane opponent and rip through teams that don't work together or don't have a balanced composition, that's just how he is by nature.

he one shots all the adc in the game

I'm totally fine with that, especially in s6. Buff Trynd, please.

weeaboomerNov 8, 20159 votes

Why in the fuck is he allowed to ult while CCed?

SpectralRavenNov 7, 20158 votes

i think its the rng early game. nothing like walking up level 2 getting crit twice and having to recall and lose lane instantly. my favorite type of laning :)

Count ZubatNov 7, 201511 votes

Imagine how OP Trynda will be with that new heal-on crit mastery. Very good sustain early game and even better trade potential. It will be disgusting.

Shield VillainNov 8, 20157 votes

Trynd is a champion that can fuck you up for your mistakes. AKA thinking you can out duel him. That's what he's strongest at. You have to poke him down or just destroy him and back out really fast. Gnar is a great counter for him.

Tryndamere has by far the stupidest kit I've ever seen in this game. It's not OP or anything, just downright stupid. I can't believe he hasn't received a full rework yet

Mister MackeyNov 8, 20151 votes

Really the stupidest kit huh? Never play singed? Singed whole kit is to punish chasing and nothing else.

kJsNov 8, 20152 votes

You don't chase Ekko either, when he has his ultimate.

TurquoiseYoshiNov 8, 20153 votes

Singed has his W-E combo, and is a very positioning-heavy champion if your enemy isn't a potato. Sure, he's a bit basic, but Trynd is dumber.

thePandevNov 8, 20155 votes

Well timed ignite nullifies his ult. Split pushing is garbage in a meta with teleport. The only reason Tryndamere shits on you is because you don't give 2 shits about countering him at all. If you won't pick someone like Malphite who wrecks Trynd, which by all means is fine but then are negligent to building any sort of armor then you just deserve to lose. You aren't supposed to beat him in 1v1s. And if your ADC is dying in teamfights to Trynd then you are doing something wrong.

But you want to know a champion who can do what he does, except can completely bully you out of lane no matter who you are, and is actually useful in a teamfight, with the strongest type of, but easy to use CC? Yasuo

Lady HammerlockNov 8, 20154 votes

i hate tryndamere not because of his sustain or invincibility its because you know the only reason he won lane was because you dropped him to low hp and the he crits you for 200 dmg another thing is his kit discourages trading why? why would you trade with someone who hits harder the more you hit him why would try to trade resources(this only applies to mana top lanes)when he is resourceless and has sustain why would you trade with someone that can crit for 200 dmg at any moment why would you trade with him(this applies to ad champs only)when he makes you hit for nothing when you can't escape him cause he has a slow only the premier top laners like Renekton , Rumble , Riven who are annoying lane bullies have a very very good chance at beating him

TyroneWatermelonNov 8, 20154 votes

Sorry but you wrong,he can't 1v1 all champions in the game. Like most melee champs,he doesn't stand a chance against Vaybe,since just like 90% of melee champs,they need to waste their only gap closer to only Get to her,and we all know Vayne can use her unskilled was to point and click knockback,and then just free kiting. Same goes with kalista,since she is the 2th easiest champ to kite with. Nobody outrades Fiora anyway,and specially not 1v1 her. Maybe a fed Yi with maxed W also have the potential to 1v1 trynda.

stop crying , its not like his ult give the olaf ult too ...wth why people cant stop complaining about a champ ?!? stop it , EVERY CHAMP can get counter ! If this champ was so truly invincible , trynd is supposed to get 100% win rate? no? just learn to play vs him and thats its , in a game you can get rekt hard by a trynd , and the other game YOU CAN rekt a trynd ! hes like the 20th win rate champ . so come on . hes fine . and btw just cc him for the 5 sec , and then you got it . god damnit , im tired of this GD crying every damn day about every damn champ .

The WhamboozlerNov 8, 20153 votes

Trynd is obnoxious to play against, I will give you that. His R is a HUGE denial button that cockblocks people who face him.

That said... he fits in just fine with all the other unfun piles of crap that have been shoveled at us lately. Yasuo's dropping wind wall and negating your entire team's ranged attacks in a teamfight. Tahm devouring a carry and fleeing at high speed. Ekko pressing R and immediately getting himself out of the stupid position (and certain death) that he derped himself into. Kalista pulling someone away from certain death, then kiting/chasing you to death with her infinite hops? Kindred making everyone near her immune to death. EVERY new champ lately has had some awful, unfun mechanics shoved into it that make people rage. Trynd fits right in. Hell, compared to them he's underpowered since he lacks 12 passives and % health true damage.

Champs lately are becoming more and more binary. Either you pick the champ who's thing invalidates THEIR thing... or they invalidate you and you're screwed. Trynd isn't unfun. The entire GAME is unfun... because that's the sort of interactions they're building it towards.

Not strong from behind. Hard to kite, but if you have peeling, you'll be fine. Ironically, his wife ( Ashe ) works well against him.

The Bíg TicketNov 8, 20152 votes

Jax actually beats him 1v1 if he builds correctly..so does Nasus and Warwick under some circumstances aswell. And then you always have Vayne who can 1v1 any champ in the game.
