Tristana Needs to be slightly buffed / nudged

Her early game is so weak that something has to give to make her a more competitive ADC.

Her real power doesnt show till she is level 14+ due to her passive range making her unviable against most other ADCs early game, but even late game she can be easily out traded by kogmaw who has almost 100% up time on a buff that boosts his attack speed as well as jacks his auto range up to 710.

While 699 attack range at level 18 is decent, and while tristana is a more defenssive play style ADC in the sense of her having alot of self peels, with her cooldowns, her kit really is 100% reliant on having the highest attack range

She doesnt have alot of the more bursty abilities of other champs ( sure her E can do alot if you can actually fully stack it on someone, but its burst that still requires alot of setup )

Her ult does almost insignificant damage when compared to other ADCs damage which is fine because the peel is good, but she needs more compensation.

Even twitch who has a kit loaded with good setup has an ult that lasts a decent amount of time on a decently low CD which turns him into basically what kog maw is, a high ranged supper fast damage dealing champion capable of obliterating people in the blink of an eye.

While tristana doesnt need that punch like her counter parts, she does need either more range, or more attack range earlier on

She already passively pushes lanes which leaves her vulnerable, and her only real source of damage is her autos ( again i dont count the E because its not always a reliable source of damage due to its damage on stacks 1&2 being insignificant, her damage on stack 3 isnt too bad, and her damage on stack 4 is decent, but its not always easy to reach 3-4 stacks )

I dont know if my solution is the right one for her, but i strongly feel like she needs a slight nudge to bring her up to the same capabilities of her counterparts while still keeping her unique play style
