Fuck you tryndamere, and your lack of weakness.

Literally not weak in any point of the game. Pre 6 advantage as random crits, free heal, resourceless. After 6 you can beat him down with as much dmg as you want, but this crit asshole can just pop his ult and either run away or bash you down from 50% hp in 4 seconds. He doesn't really have much counterplay other than run away. Lategame we finally pinned him down and knocked him up, but somehow he manages to pop his ult, kill one of our team and spin away. In a 2v5. This is almost Darius level broken. Riot don't want to nerf Darius, Garen or Fiora, who usually get banned, but can they at least nerf Tryndamere so you can actually have a chance at stopping him lategame? If whoever you have on your team with hard cc is awful at using it, you're screwed. I think if he's being knocked up or suppressed or whatever, he should not be able to use it. Rework him into less of an unkillable assassin and into more of a tank. Keep the ult part but the crit has to go, or at least be less likely.

item 3075 Tryndamere is not remotely broken, and he has huge counters in both champion and item selection. Anyone with CC and kiting ability can take him down. Anyone who blinds can take him down. Have neither? Build a Frozen Mallet and take him down.

Off the top of my head, people who work well against Trynd for kiting ability or damage block:

Teemo Karma Gnar Lissandra Ryze Fiora Pantheon Quinn

Items to buy against him:

item 3116 item 3022 item 3025 item 3153 item 3110 item 3143 item 3075

And the kicker....an early item 3082 gives you a huge advantage.

So instead of complaining about Tryndamere on the boards, learn how to play against him. It's not all too hard.

EDIT: I see via your recent match history that you just violently got trampled by a Tryndamere. You played Nasus, who does not do well in that matchup. Next time when you lose against a Trynd, stack armor and hp. Build a thornmail/frozen heart, etc. It'll be more useful than attempting to carry with Trinity.

Tryndamere needs to get Poppy'd.

Trynd's weakness in the early game is you can trade hard with him anytime his rage is down.

he needs ALOT of gold to bully most people.

don't blow you're cc on him before he ults wait till he does ult then cc, his ult ends and is still in range.

his team fight is poor unless fed, and his split push is hard to capitalize on in solo que since your team mates are likely taking jungle camps instead of applying pressure

...His ult is 5 seconds long. Try and get him to waste it and you'll have him good.

You don't play Tryndamere, do you?

Just make it so he can't ult while cc'd. Now he's balanced.

item 3047 item 3143 item 3110 item 3075 are all useful against Tryndamere

Many champions capable of building at least two of those items will have a pretty significant advantage against Tryndemere in fights.

In addition, there is a mastery to reduce the total damage of critical strikes by 10% which you can take.

Even if you don't want to build purely defensive, you can reduce the damage of critical strikes by about 27% (with normal AAs reduced by 10%) with Ninja Tabi, Randuin's Omen, and the Crit Damage Reduction mastery. In addition, this gives a 4 second MS slow (to chase, kite, or escape), 85 armor, 400 health, and an attack speed slow.

This is sufficient for most bruisers to survive against Tryndamere's damage output long enough to crush him using their base damages.

Tryn is really easy to kill Pre-6 you gotta give him the Susan treatment unfortunately you gotta beat him before he gets his ulti, then keep him down after he gets it by not letting him perma farm the map to catch back up.
