Riot, can you please address Tryndamere's balance state?

Kıng Boo··2 votes·555 views

First point I'd like to address. We all know what's so frustrating about Tryndamere, right? That five seconds of invincibility...just doesn't really seem to fit the definition of the word 'balanced', does it?

Especially now with the new masteries being introduced, Tryndamere is absolutely devastating. Free critical strikes, mobility (which gets a lowered CD when he crits), and five seconds of invincibility.

With the introduction of the 'Warlord's Bloodlust' mastery, Tryndamere not only benefits even MORE from critical strikes, he's healing more from both his Q AND his passively gained critical chance.

Really, you could be attacking him under tower when he's splitpushing, and he'll shrug off the attacks and destroy whatever objective he's trying for, then E away like absolutely nothing happened. Plus, last game, I witnessed a Tryndamere soloing baron, by himself. Taking absolutely ZERO damage. Is this, really your definition of a healthy champion?

So please, Riot. Just take a quick look at him, do something to make him manageable in lane, teamfights, and just in plain general the game entirely.

Cry me a riven. He's totally balanced. I'd even say there are more op champs like him. 5 sec immortality? Just run away from him. He can destroy turrets like nothing happens? Just CC him. (malphite). Just a small tip. Tryndamere will ALWAYS split push (even if snowballing) and especially when he's behind and useless for team. Enlighten me and tell me what division are you?

I'm a Tryn main so I'm loving it. Welcome to the League of Devourer Tryndamere in the jungle as the new god.

But top lane is so easy to shut down Tryndamere...Still waiting to lose to a Tryndamere as Malphite.

Also, Nasus murders Tryn at all stages of the game with wither.

Tips please? I'm not sure how to do Malphite with the mana changes. I've tried but failed to bully Tryndamere because I run out of mana too easy now. I used to do flask + mana potions as my start and would dumpster him out of lane easy, get ahead on CS and just make him worthless. Now I just go OOM trying as he heals up to full.

They are hotfixing Warlord's Bloodlust so that it will only heal you (and provide attack speed, I think) for damage dealt to champions.

That will dramatically cut down his sustain in lane and the jungle.
