I play tryndamere top. I know him well. I used to go rageblade but it's not that good on him. Sure he's just like yi whete he juat rightclicks but the phantom hit isn't that great since you most likely already stacked your furry. His 1st item is shiv. Then botrk. I don't know the 3rd item (by now you have your boots). Them IE and scimitar. What should my 3rd item be. Would Hydra be good. Or will he do the same thing as yi where he gets his core then goes tank.
Elite4Runner1 votesI honestly still like Guinsoo's Rageblade, but I always have. The Phantom Hit will stack your next proc of Shiv sooner and will deal an additional hit of 8/10% of your enemies current HP. Yeah, it's more expensive, which sucks, but it's a great source of AD and attack speed which work very well with him, and AP which really helps his heal.
If you insist on using something else, I would say that it really depends on what your playstyle is and who you're opponent is. If you're behind your lane opponent and need a more defensive item, I'd go 
. If you're ahead, 
is good. You really want to watch your crit chance because if you have any more than 60% from items and masteries you're going to exceed your cap because he gets about 40% from his passive.
d4rkshock1 votesAfter 2 crit items, I don't get anymore. With IE, that's 85%. With PD that's 95% so no crits are of no further value at that point since your nearly capped. Rageblade is just as expensive as IE. Also chances are by the time you stack rageblade when you do get it, you have full furry. Yes you do heal about 210 HP more but you want more ad and split pushing power. The timat effect is gone so it's not that good on him. He has no on hit dmg unless your jg and you build bloodrazor. Alot of the sated devour jg's now have it so their jg items are situational. That doesn't help.

or 
AlwaysByMySide1 votesFrankly, he's not that good anymore.
Anyway, is there a reason your third item isn't your IE? Frankly, it's probably better for a second item than your lifesteal item (I wouldn't always get bork, if they have no tanks BT is frankly better).
You could also be a real badass and get a triforce for the lulzy burst and chasing ability. This would also max your crit (technically you'd go over, but only by five percent).
d4rkshock1 votesI play him if we have a tank and I just want to do the least amount of shit possible. You just stay top and afk farm untill you "open the gates like udyr who is the most mainstream jg because trick and a tiger goes gates. A bear goes gates. A turtle goes gates a bird goes quack. Speak and spell ftw. Jk lol. then you do it to bot Lane. Then you group and win. I'm going sed to getting IE 4th but that's old now. Botrk gives as and tryndamere needs that. Also the tank meta so you will almost always build it. You also have another slow. That's why shyvana builds it sometimes since she has no cc besides chilling smite or exhaust. Tri force is expensive and it's not worth the time but if fed then yes build it. That's my fuck it item if I'm fed and just don't care. For instance on garen, I got fed and decided to make use of the spin 2 win crit and got tri force. I'm my opinion, tri force is like divine rapier in dota where you get shit tons of dmg but you drop it if you die and the enemy team can pick it up and use it. It's a risky item. I'm just trying to figure out what I need to change in my builds since devour is gone and rageblade changed.
Pierce The Veal1 votesEssence reaver, infinity edge, phantom dancer or statikk shiv, last whisper thingy, bloodthirster/ravenous hydra. Boots of choice.
Essence reaver is suprising to some people, but it actually easily gives him 40% cdr with just his passive which he really likes. It's cost efficient in that sense too.
